A luxurious conditioner

Definitely love the conditioner more than the shampoo in this series as it makes the hair super smooth and de-tangles hair well. Same as the conditioner, I don't notice the effect it has on frizziness but I am definitely a fan of how smooth it makes my hair! Smells average but comes in a elegant gold bottle.

Tips: Use with the corresponding shampoo

Not a bad conditioner

I was pleasantly surprised with this product. The packaging is standard, sturdy and easy to open and close in the shower.

It isn't particularly scented which is a good thing for me. The product is an average consistency, maybe slightly thinner than my usual conditioners. I find I use quite a lot of product. I have fine, curly hair, medium length. This rinses out well and my hair is not tangled and is easy to comb after I have used this conditioner. I don't know that you get a completely frizz free result, but it isn't bad. My hair isn't weighed down by the product. As my hair is quite dry something a tiny bit heavier may have been better but this is OK.

Tips: for best results I used my normal styling product with the shampoo and conditioner from this range and my hair is looking really good.

Elive smooth intense

I wouldn't say it really took any frizz away, but it did make my hair feel really nice and clean and easy to work with. It also made it look nice and shiny. If I blow waved it it seemed to be frizzier after than usual but if I towel dried it it wasn't. All in all a really nice product to use but not nessecarily for de frizzing use.

Tips: Better to towel dry than blow wave

love the smell

Im usually one to be very skeptical about conditioners and often choose to avoid them due to having super fine and oily hair, however after using the L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Smooth Intense Conditioner I feel as though my mind has some what been changed. The texture is thick and creamy, the smell is just devine and to be honest it works better than johnson and johnson no more tears in the kids hair. It had made my hair slightly more mangaeable, much softer and the smell is long lasting. If you are looking for a conditioner to tame frizzies then look else where because this is not one for that.

How would you rate L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Smooth Int

After trialing this product for 8 days and matching it with the shampoo, I put this product to the test and braved the humid, wet weather. Looking in the mirror afterward, I looked like scary spice. The conditioner itself is lovely on your hair, it definitely does not feel dry however, this product doesn't cut it for anti-frizz magic-in-a-bottle. The packaging and colour of the conditioner itself is beautiful but the results are not.

I really, really wanted this product to do what is said it would, i.e. get rid of frizz for 48 hours. While a decent conditioner in its own right, it didn't do for me what I needed - I used it along with the shampoo and it most definitely did not get rid of the wispy/frizzy bits in my hair - they were still present as usual once my hair air dried. The product also doesn't go a very long way - my hair is just past my shoulders and not especially thick, but it felt like I had to use a quarter of the bottle to coat my hair properly. While my hair is nice and soft, it has a slightly oily feel the morning after using the conditioner. Usually my hair takes a good 3 days after a wash to feel oily, so this is not ideal. The bottle said the product is created for dry hair, so this could be why. My hair is definitely not dry and runs towards oily. All this said, maybe my hair is just not the type of hair this product is aimed at. My hair is, as I said, not dry, and straight-wavy. I tend to get little frizzy, wispy bits after washing normally, but nothing major - and the conditioner could not take care of this. Perhaps someone with worse frizz may have seen a difference?

Tips: Not the best if your hair is on the oily side of the spectrum - but probably good if you suffer from dry/damaged hair.

I personally didn't enjoy this product, i used it alongside the matching shampoo and didnt notice much difference in the smoothness of my hair. I found that my hair became oily quicker than with other products. I doubt i will buy this product in future,

ELVIVE Smooth Conditoner

This was a good product, Definately made a visible difference to my hair.

It made it harder to style my hair at times tho.

Trial Team Review - 3/5

I was left rather underwhelmed by this product. The packaging was attractive, clear and easy to read, and the conditioner had a pleasant smell to it, but I found I needed to use a lot of it and the conditioner had run out whilst I still had half a bottle of shampoo left. However, it didn't deliver the results I had expected from it. I have very long and wavy hair, frizz is a problem I battle with a LOT! I had high hopes that this conditioner (and the shampoo) would ease my frizz woes and tame my hair. It didn't. If anything, it made it worse - my normal shampoo/conditioner does a much better job than this! I was disappointed with the overall results, and I wouldn't use it again.

L'Oreal Paris ELVIVE smooth intense conditioner

Have been using this product for about two weeks now and i must say it does smooth out your hair, it leaves my hair lovely and clean, manageable and with a gorgeous long lasting smell. After blow waving and styling my hair was left lovely and soft. I do however find that it needs to be completely rinsed out properly so it doesn't leave your hair feeling weighed down. I just use a little bit on the ends of my hair and it works a treat. Over all i think it does what it says by smoothing out your hair.

Tips: I only need a little amount and wash it out completely :)
