I had been planning to write a review on this for the past 2 months but I guess it wanted to come out on my blog on Republic Day only :)
Happy Republic Day to all my Indian friends :)
I missed the parade this year,,but never mind next year I will watch it for sure,
as a Army kid I have always lived in an environment which motivated me to get into the Armed Forces but well things took a turn and I landed up somewhere else :) but the spirit of doing something worthwhile for your country never died in me,,being a responsible citizen is the least you can do for your country, knowing very well that there are people guarding your country with a proud smile on their face and not with a thought that there is a constant risk to their life..
So,,,,,,
Back to how you can guard your hair if you use constant heat to style them.
I have normal hair and I try to use heat styling equipment as less as I can,, but whenever I do so I never fail to use this Loreal Serum before.
Its a shine perfecting serum : control, suppleness and shine for unruly hair in one step.
Contains nourishing ingredients that leave hair shine, smooth and ultra light.
Directions to use : apply 1-2 pumps to shampoo and towel dried hair and style as usual. Do not rinse .
Ingredients : CYCLOPENTASILOXAINE, ALCOHOL DENAT. , DIMETHICONOL, C12-15 ALKYLBENZOATE, BENZYL SALICYLATE, BUTYLPHENLY METHYL PROPIONAL, HEXYL CINAAMAL, LINALOOL, ALPHA-ISOMETHYL IONONE, GERANIOL, HYDROXYISOHEXYL 3-CYCLOHEXENE CARBOXALDEHYDE, CYTRONELLOL, LIMONENE, PARFUM/FRAGRANCE
Quantity ~ 125 ml
Price ~ 580 INR
Shelf Life ~ 29 months
My take on it ~ I love this serum, its the only one I have and I don't think I will have to change it or buy a new one till it expires, because I don't use it much and also because two pumps is enough for my hair length, so this one actually goes on long...
It does give extra shine and smoothness to the hair. I take it on my palm, spread it nicely all over it and then I use my fingers as a comb to spread the serum evenly on my hair, also I don't use it over my scalp as it is not advised and I concentrate more on the tips of the hair.
It gets absorbed super soon and leaves you hair very soft and light weight,,just like silk.
I have never faced any issues heat styling my hair anymore because of this serum as after using it not only the frizzyness vanishes but also the dryness you feel after you heat style your hair is absent.
The fragrance is mild but I don't like fragrance in my cosmetics.
There is no sticky feeling in your hair even after hours of using it.
For heat styling it is effective as the issue I had with the dryness due to heat styling is effectively curbed down with this product.
Recommendation : yes please, if you are into curling/straighteing your hair..If you only blow dry your hair then you can skip this. I never blow dry my hair as I find it too much of effort and also the damage it does to the hair in the long run.
This is how it looks on my hair,,see the shine,..combined effect of straightening and this serum.. :)
I have used this Serum in one post, you can check it out here
Thanks
