L'Oreal Paris Casting Creme Gloss Review

Easy to use colour and very close to colour on the box. Nice and natural but not covering everything. Shiny & glossy finish.

I like how easy it was to put on and gave an even coverage. Covered the greys perfectly and the colour end result very glossy and pretty close to what was expected or showing on the box. Give a good boost to my hair as well. The colour I found lasted longer than what was said on the fox and not much fading which is good. Even on long hair I had enough with one box. Also the stain on skin wasn't too hard to rub off.

I'm a home hair dyer from waaaaay back. I'm talking 16, yes, 90's, back when burgandy ruled the hair wavz. Flashforward to 2014. Hair suddenly thinned, was flat, in a state of long term stress. I could not continue with permanent hair dye, my hair needed a break, but I not going to settle for (shock horror) NATURAL hair colour. Enter Loreal Casting Creme Gloss 300 - Darkest Brown. I had high hopes. Box is user friendly, states no Ammonia, Semi-Permanent, Lasts up to 28 shampoos. Photo of someone with dark hair, a swath of dark brown hair along the front, small pic of yellow honey comb, to reflect the "with Royal Jelly". Pink accents, carried over into internal packaging. Words like "Glossy" "Non-drip" "full of visible shimmering tones" "Irresistable Fruity Fragrance" spring off the box. You get the picture. Inside, what you expect in a home hair kit. Clear bottle of developer liquid, tube of creme colour in bright pink, plastic gloves that fit my fat kiwi fingers, instructions in English and one foreign language with an NZ 0800 number. I found instructions hard on the eyes, foreign language was distracting, mixed in between the english. Would have prefered this was separate. A third bottle of Royal Jelly Conditioner. Standard hair dye packaging and contents. Colourant creme is a shiny gloss, mixes easily in bottle, applies easily and, voila, no drips! It doesn't smell bad, but I wouldn't eat its delicate irrestible fruity goodness. Go make a coffee, come back in 20 mins. Hop in shower. This stuff rinses out really well! I have white walls in my shower and was worried my Darkest Brown would mark, no problem however. About 2 mins in and I was done. Now for the Royal Jelly Conditioner. OH I LOVE THIS STUFF. When I die, I want to be bathed in Loreal Royal Jelly Conditioner. It smells. So. Good. It does a great job of conditioning, the bonus for me is it doesn't block my scalp pores like other conditioners do. Its like a hair mask, its so good. At the end - colour is fabulous! Rich, vibrant, intense, shiny, strong pigment with ... hold on ..., I can almost see them "shimmering tones" ... Hair does not feel dry. There is none of that bleach/ammonia/I just killed my hair feeling. Its soft. Bouncy. There is no colour left on my scalp. I am 2 months down and still the colour goes on, and I wash my hair about 3-4 times a week. I love my hair colour. Since using this product over the past year, my hair has completely restored, split ends and breakages seem a thing of the past. I have less hair fall. I'm a convert and won't go back to permanent.

I love this hair colour range Iv been using it for years from being blonde to light brown to a dark brown! I love that its semi permanent and the colour lasts. I like the selection of colours they have in this range also. The smell isn't strong like permanent colour so I always go for this one even though its semi permanent.

This is a really good hair colour. It makes your hair so glossy and healthy looking. The product is really easy to use. It looks so natural and last for 28 shampoos. It slowly fades out which is good so you don't get that re growth coming through. Good price too!

I always buy supermarket products to dye my hair, mainly because salon treatment/colour is far too expensive especially if you have to keep it up every 6-8 weeks. This product has always been my go-to. Love it and the colors are beautiful and natural looking.

I have used these quite a few times in different colours and love them each time. I've put my hair through a lot so it's nice to use this cause it's not harsh or damaging! Super easy to apply and great results. It's nice that it just fades out over time. Makes regrowth lessn obvious!

I got a silky blonde casting creme hair dye from the October 2016 Beauty Vault. This was the first time dying my hair and I wanted to go from dark blonde to lighter/silky blonde. The results were a bit disappointing, I have to say. While I did see a change it was a much smaller change than I had hoped, it is noticeable in the sunlight and in some streaks (although I dyed my whole head). However, my hair didn't not like the hair dye (not what I expected)! Instead of drying out, my hair felt healthier and with slightly more of a curl in it than before dying. I'm going to attribute this to the conditioner that is applied after dying. So if I do decide to go darker I would definitely go back to this product, or if I was just touching up already light hair I would also use the Casting Creme Gloss.

I have used this colour and it does what it says. Full grey coverage and very shiny hair. It lasts long and a youth roots after three yo four weeks. It's quick and you don't have to leave it on for long which is good gor my busy schedule.
