L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Smooth Intense Conditioner Review

The packaging was not as lovely as the shampoo's but the product didn't disappoint. While I only noticed a small reduction in frizziness, I noticed a huge amount of extra body in my hair which was lovely. The product smells nice - not overpowering and it was easy to smooth through my hair.

I liked this. It's not my favourite but I liked it. I've used it for about a month now and I condition my hair 3-4 times a week. I have thick and curly hair so I tend to use a lot of conditioner in the shower but I don't need to use much with this one. Usually if I let my hair dry naturally it frizzes up in to a huge bush but I feel when I condition Elvive it's alot more tamed and smooth.

The packaging is quite nice and it smells real good too.

I would not say my hair was perfectly frizz-free but it certainly got rid of most of it. Also, the frizz-free effect did not last 48 hours. However, I noticed enough of a difference that I would definitely buy it again. It also helped to detangle my hair a lot!! A blessing when you have long hair. It did not weigh my hair down at all. I enjoyed using this product, but I am not sure if I could use it all the time due to having blonde foils in my hair. However, I am going to continue to alternate it with my other conditioner.

I took this conditioner with me on my trip to Brazil. With the change in weather from gloomy NZ to blazing Brazil, it did take a toll on my hair. But by using this conditioner it did help out immensely with taming the frizz!

Pros: 1 - Smells amazing, fresh scent that lasted throughout the day. 2 - Easy flip top bottles. Hate having hassles trying to open them! 3 - Made my hair feel rich, smooth, thick wen fully covered with product in shower. 4 - Definitely helped tame the frizzes after using!

Cons: 1 - Seemed to aggravate my scalp a bit.

I actually loved this product. I would definitely use it again IF it didn't aggravate my scalp so much. But I really do think it does what it says it does. Left my hair feeling soft, smooth and shiny. Try it out!

It is so hard for me to find a shampoo and conditioner that actually work great on my hair. My hair is really stubborn, this shampoo and conditioner used to be so bad for my hair and then just last week, it has been the best thing for my hair. My hair changes the shampoos and conditioners all the time making it so difficult for me to consistently buy the same shampoo and conditioner. At first when i tried it, my hair felt stripped of all the essential oils that it needed so i stopped using it, then last week it was the only shampoo and conditioner in the bathroom so i used it and my hair felt so good after i used it. My hair truely felt so soft and nourishing it was just so good!

I was pleasantly surprised by the L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Smooth Intense Conditioner! I have tried it alone, without its matching shampoo, but I love the results and definitely will consider buying it again.

The packaging is great - very simple and easy to get the product out of the bottle. It smells DELICIOUS, very sweet and fragrant. I find that this conditioner is amazing for detangling my curly hair, and can do it in seconds, whereas other brands can't. The end result is smooth, curly hair that looks lovely and smells fragrant throughout the day. Definitely like this product!

I really like this product, in conjunction with the Smooth Intense shampoo. It did leave my hair beautifully soft and shiny on day one, although by day two it was not as noticeable. It did reduce frizz and my hair sat much better after using it.

My only real issue with this, and it might just be a dealbreaker for me, is that it was very difficult for me to spread this conditioner through my hair, and consequently I had to use A LOT of it at a time. Now I usually had to use a fair bit as my hair is long but this seemed a bit much even for me! I still have maybe 2/3 of the shampoo left and maybe 1/4 or a 1/5 even of the conditioner left.

Having thick, dry and frizzy hair conditioner is an absolute necessity for me! I found this conditioner very nourishing and made my hair really soft. As the conditioner is quite a thick formula it did weigh my hair down a little, which was a pain. This conditioner is suppose to make your hair super smooth, which it didn't do for me. I had high hopes for this product because of the description but was a little disappointed when it didn't really follow through. I have tried a bunch of different smoothing products and have been disappointed, and this one kind of falls into that same category. Although the product made my hair smooth while wet, as soon as my hair was dry it wasn't noticably smoother. The shampoo and conditioner make a nice combo and this isn't at all a bad product, it's definitely something I would suggest for people to try out because it could work miracles on one person's hair and not the other, and for the price it's not a big risk to take. The product retails for $8.99 which is a little more expensive than other drug store conditioners but it does have nourishing elements such as Argan oil in it. I think the reason it was mediocre for me is because of the thickness of my hair, I need something a little more intense.

Great to smooth hair and add a level of shine. Use if you have thick to medium hair. Made my thin hair lack volume. Good to control fly away hair.

I like the bottle design, they stay standing in my shower and upside down which means not having to shake and tap the bottle when getting to the end. I found the formula was great not too thick and very easy to rub through evenly. Didn't notice less frizz first couple of washes but did by the 3rd - the first couple of washes my hair was so smooth it seemed to be more frizzy but by the 3rd time using it i had a nice balance of smooth, less frizzy hair. I have medium to long length hair and found I only needed to use a small amount so love that I'm getting more washes than usual out of the conditioner. After towel drying my hair, the hair brush goes through my hair so smoothly no tangles at all.
