Hi everyone.... Today I’ve brought a product from L’Oreal Paris. It’s a smoothing conditioner from its Smooth Intense Range. The other ranges which L’Oreal offers are: -

2.  L’Oreal Paris Total Repair Repairing Conditioner.
3. L’Oreal Paris Color Protect Protecting Conditioner.

L’Oreal Paris is a well known brand which need no introduction. The L'Oréal Group is the world's largest cosmetics and Beauty Company. With its registered office in Paris and head office in the Paris suburb ofClichy, Hauts-de-Seine, France, it has developed activities in the field of cosmetics. Concentrating on hair colour, skin care, sun protection, make-up, perfumes and hair care, the company is active in the dermatological, tissue engineering and pharmaceutical fields and is the top nanotechnologypatent-holder in the United States.

I’ve tried many conditioners like Matrix smoothing conditioner, Dove Anti dandruff conditioner and this conditioner is one of them. I have curly hair, so want some strong conditioner to control my frizzy hair. Dove conditioner did not help me much. Matrix products are bit expensive then I switched to L’Oreal. I’ve also used it hair mask so I thought of giving a try to its conditioner as well.

Just like L’Oreal’s hair mask, its conditioner also helped me a lot. It’s a smoothing conditioner and it has helped me a lot in controlling my frizzy hair. 

This conditioner claims to transform unruly hair to smooth manageable hair and it really does work and fulfil its claims. The product claims to contain Argan oil and Silk protein which help in controlling frizzy hair.

Some benefits of Argan oil are: -

• Argan oil hydrates the hair in a natural way. It stops the curliness and roughness of hair in an efficient way.
• Argan oil penetrates into the hair pores or shafts and enhances the elasticity of hair. It also proves to be very nourishing for the growth of hair.
• Argan oil is very good for uncontrollable and unmanageable hair. It restores the smoothness of hair and makes them manageable again.
• Natural antioxidants present in Argan oil strengthen the hair by repairing the damaged cellular membrane of hair.
• Presence of Vitamin E in Argan oil makes it a tremendous agent for hair treatment. Many external and internal agents like heat, over styling and oxidization damage the hair. Vitamin E present in Argan oil is very useful in restoring the natural hair and renewing and repairing the damage caused by destructive agents.

The back side of the bottle describe how to use the conditioner and also shows how the conditioner works.

This conditioner is of creamy texture with off white color. It has very mild fruity fragrance.
