L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Smooth Intense Conditioner Review

I was lucky enough to grab the Loreal Elvive anti-frizz conditioner in the last vault along with the Shampoo.

What I like about this product is that, along with the shampoo the conditioner is enriched with Argan oil and has Thermo protection. Both have done wonders for my hair.

Like the shampoo I needed a conditioner that was going to help maintain my frizz to smoother locks and work with my sensitive skull without giving me dandruff. This product worked for both of my trouble areas.

The bottle is an orange, bronze colour, not see through like the shampoo bottle. I love how easy the conditioner comes out of the bottle! You also get every last drop out of it because of the way it is designed.

I wash my and condition my hair every second day. Like the shampoo I only use a small amount of conditioner (size of an old 50 cent coin). Squeezing some into the palm of my hand I was pleasantly surprised. The smell is a lot like the shampoo, for me it reminds me of apples (I don't know why lol). The conditioner itself is quite a thick cream and orange in colour.

My hair was feeling super light after washing and rinsing the shampoo out so was looking forward to see how the conditioner left my hair feeling. I left the conditioner in my hair while for 2-4 minutes before rinsing out. Even though my hair was still wet I could feel the difference. Silky and smooth the real test would be to see what it was like once dried. I didn't expect to see 'results' on the first day of washing but after a week of using this product combined with the shampoo my hair was a lot less frizzy, it was soft and smooth. My hair didn't go frizzy half way through the day like it usually did and what's better is I never ended up with dandruff from using this conditioner. It kept my skull quite hydrated as well and didn't dry it out.

I ran out recently of both the shampoo and conditioner and purchased them both from the supermarket on special for $3.99 a bottle. I'm unsure of the price when not on special but I'm sure it's a small price to pay for perfection :)

My hair and head love this product! An absolute win for me :)

I've been using this conditioner for about a week now and it has really helped me combat my Frizz Monster. My hair is super smooth and healthy since using this. I've broken a few brushes previously trying to tame my frizzy hair and now after having a shower with this, my brush just glides through my hair and it never tangles. Even the day after conditioning my hair it still is frizz and tangle free. The product smells so good and doesn't feel "heavy" like some conditioners.

I recommend this to everybody as even if you have oily hair it help get rid of the excess oil but keeps the moisture in.

I love this and I got it from the beauty review vault a few months ago I think it's amazing and I got it with the shampoo and I've just been using this because it leaves my hair softer than ever and really silky. I think it's different to others because I dont need alot. And also it says it removes frizz which I think it does but I have a little friz only so I'm not sure but everything about it is greal and I think it's my favourite right now

I was very lucky to get this in the last beauty vault for 2015. I needed some new hair care products. My hair is very dry from straightening. I have been looking for something to add a bit of moisture and make my hair clean.

The bottle I recieved was a 250 ml. Its packaging is simple but bright coloured which is eye catching to any buyer. The consistency is smooth with a distink light musk scent that permeates once its being used.

When I use this I shampoo and rinse then apply this. My hair feels smooth after using ut. Some dryness had gone but my ends were still a bit dry. I wasn't expecting a miracle cure but I can notice a difference in the appearance of my hair. I can comb through effortlessly. I would definitely be buying more of this. It's affordable at times when its on sale.

After just reviewing the Shampoo here is my review on the conditioner... (added the same start just for background info on my hair)

I have salon dyed blonde wavy/curly hair and I heat style it every day + always dry it with a hair dryer which of course means its frizzy too, so this should ideally be a good match.

Really easy bottle to use (almost too much comes out it you squeeze too hard, so be careful) and its in an unmistakably bright orange bottle (which is great cause hubby then knows which one to use!)

I find this conditioner great after shampooing with the same shampoo. My hair feels soft, clean and mostly nourished.

I still always have to follow up with hair product to take the frizz on my hair, but even with high end conditioner I have to aswell. This is a great all round conditioner when you can nab it on special. Don't expect miracles, but its better than a lot of other cheapies I've tried, and for that reason I would purchase it again.

This is a conditioner I would personally not buy again. The consistency is nice but I have dry hair and it does not do any thing much. probably suitable for more normal hair types

I'd noticed that this conditioner (and shampoo) had received pretty good reviews here on BR before deciding to give it a go, which was a motivator. However i'm not at all impressed, this conditioner does nothing for me other than clean my hair.

The lengths of my hair are very dry, damaged and prone to frizziness, and it seems that this conditioner fails to help me with those issues at all. I feel like I need to use loads of it, and it's pretty poor at detangling, and certainly doesn't smooth and tame my hair as it should. Apart from a pleasant fruity fragrance, there's nothing that I like about this conditioner unfortunately.

I really loved this product for several reasons. One: great price. As being a student I only have a limited income, but I still want products that feel nice. This is right up with the salon brands that are 3x the price.

Two: people noticed that my hair was different. Comments that I looked like I had just had my hair done or that it smelt nice.

Three: Easy to use and no long time to be left in. I love hair masks but I don't have time to do them often, this product is hydrating like a mask. It feels rich but does not leave a product build-up in my hair.

Four: Gentle on sensitive skin. I did not have any itching or irritation with this product.

Overall: would repurchase.

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.
