Shampoo - L'Oreal Paris Elvive Full Restore 5 Cicamide + Pro Keratin Shampoo Review

Hi dear,

today I will review this shampoo by Elvive.

I will comment the description on the bottle point by point.

Full Restore 5

Repairing Shampoo 700ml

Pro-Keratin

Cicamide

Daily wear and tear can break up the hair's surface and weaken the fibre.

Hair becomes weak, looking limp and lifeless, dull and straw-like.

-Micro Filling

The Cicamide  and Pro Keratin concentration fills in the micro gaps in damaged hair,reinforcing the hair fibre to give it strength to resist daily wear and tear, for hair that feels stronger. [It is true, hair appears overall stronger and lucent.]

-Resurfacing

Enriched with Cicamide, a technology that mimics the hair's natural cement, the formula restores smoothness to the hair fibre, leaving it soft to the touch with a healthy looking shine. [Yes, it is]

5 Proven Results

-Strength [8/10]

-Density [8/10]

-Vitality [7/10]

-Shine [7/10]

-Silkiness [8/10]

Final remarks: it is a good shampoo, especially for very long hair. It produces a rich and creamy foam. It is not extremely aggressive with the scalp. Hair remains clean for 2-3 days. I use it twice a week. The 700 ml format is very convenient and long lasting.

My final rating: 8/10.

Price: I found an offer and I paid it about 3-4€.

I will buy it again, especially if I will find a good offer at the super market!

Here some photos and more information:

That's all for today,

thanks for all the nice comments!

See you soon!

Elvive Extraordinary Oil in Cream - Review

Hi dear!

I'm back with a new review about an Elvive product,

this time I'm talking about this Extraordinary Oil in Cream.

Time ago I also reviewed the Extraordinary Oil, I like it a lot and I always have a bottle of it... together with a tube of the creamy version, because I like to alternate the products. 

The cream is very good for an easy and fast styling, while the application of the oil requires more time, and generally I use it for extricating hair after having washed it.

The cream can be applied for nourishing hair in each moment you want. It leaves hair soft and silky.

This cream does not grease hair (1-2 teaspoons are enough).

The tube will last long and it contains 150 ml. The price is quite high in my opinion, about 7 euros.

My rating: 9/10

Have you ever tried this product, or something similar?

Let me know in the comments.

Hair Conditioner - Elvive Full Restore 5 . Enriched with Calendula & Ceramide.

Hi dear!

In this last period I have finished some hair products so 

I'm ready to review them.

I will start with this conditioner by Elvive, 

known as Full Restore 5 or Total Repair 5.

First, this bottle contains 400 ml of product, 

a huge quantity that will last for a long time.

But let's talk about the quality of this conditioner. It is dense and it deeply nourishes hair. I strongly suggests it in case you have very long thin hair like me. In the following lines I will comment with a rate from 1 to 10 what Elvive promises with this conditioner.

5 Proven Results for Damaged Hair 

1. Strength* [8] 

2. Softness [7] 

3. Vitality [6] 

4. Silkiness [7]

5.Shine [8, effectively hair is more lucent] 

Formula Infused with Calendula + Ceramide 

1 Resurfaces * [7, it is difficult to say, hair appears more lucent and defined]

The caring formula enriched with Calendula Extract, a plant known for its softening properties used for millennia, transforms the hair fibre for a smooth and even finish.

2 Reinforces* [7, hair seems more strong effectively] 

The formula infused with Ceramide fills the cracks of damaged hair and reinforces its structure. With regular use, hair looks healthier and feels stronger. 

*Instrumental test after multiple applications of Full Restore 5 Shampoo and Conditioner 

Here the ingredients:

Aqua / Water , Cetearyl Alcohol , Dicetyldimonium Chloride , Cetrimonium Chloride , Sodium Benzoate , Phenoxyethanol , Steareth-6 , Acetic Acid , PEG-100 Stearate , Trideceth-10 , Trideceth-3 , Trisodium HEDTA , Chlorhexidine Digluconate , Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract , Dimethicone , Limonene , Linalool , Benzyl Salicylate , Benzyl Alcohol , Isopropyl Alcohol , Amodimethicone , Propylene Glycol , 2-Oleamido-1,3-Octadecanediol , Tartaric Acid , Cetyl Esters , Butylphenyl Methylpropional , Hexyl Cinnamal , Parfum / Fragrance

My final remarks: it is a good product for long thin hair. Hair is nourished after the treatment. Hair does not result greasy nor heavy. This conditioner helps a lot in dissolving hair knots.

My final rating: 8/10

I paid it about 2 € because I found a great offer at Carrefour.

Here some photos and more information

Hair Care - Biopoint Professional two-phase instantaneous conditioner, con 5 azioni

Hi dear!

Today I will present you this two-phase instant conditioner by Biopoint, an Italian brand for hair care.

Here some informations from biopoint.it that I'll comment subsequently:

EFFECT>>Conditioning (white phase): its innovative formula, rich in conditioning agents, envelops the cuticle, softens and untangles even the most rebellious hair. 

Deep treatment (blue phase): Keratin, constituent element of hair, acts on the structure of the capillary fiber nourishing it deeply. The Moringa Oil fortifies and reinforces hair.

Result>>Hair is immediately stronger and easier to comb; it recovers its natural beauty. > absolutely true!!!

My experience: this product is simply portentous! After washing your hair (just a shampoo, without applying a mask or a traditional conditioner that has to be rinsed out), with hair wet or completely dry, spray the product on the lengths and the tips. This instant conditioner will help you a lot combing hair and also for the styling. The perfume is wonderful! It does not need to be rinsed.

The product leaves hair clean, soft and not greasy or heavy!

My rating: 9/10

Price: I paid this 50 ml format about 2 €, it is practical!

I will surely buy it again!

Hair Care - Syoss Renew 7 Instant Intensive Mask Rinse-Out

Hi dear!

Time ago I was at Mercadona searching for a mask for my hair and I decided to give a try to this Syoss Renew 7 Instant Intensive Mask. I will start saying that I've never heard of this brand before!

Basically this mask does its work. In the sense, if you are searching for a product that nourishes deeply hair and that helps in combing hair, yes, this is the product for you. I have to advise you too that hair is a little bit weighed down after the treatment but it is also lucent and soft (and I have very thin long hair)! 

It is simple to be used. After the shampoo you have to apply it *only* on the tips/lengths of your hair, wait 5 minutes, rinse very well with warm water. 

All considered is not a bad product but it is not also an excellent one! 

My rating: 6.5/10

I would not buy again.

I would like to comment what is stated in Syoss.com

Repairs 7 signs of hair damages & provides hair “like new” > not exactly, but they are better than before ahah!

Significantly reduces breakage & nodes, prevents split ends for deeply repaired hair with anti-substance-loss-effect > As I said hair is a little bit weighed down, but the effect is not so terrible

Turns strawy, rebellious and dull hair into irresistibly supple hair full of healthy shine > Effectively hair is more lucent after the treatment.

Hair Products - Dikson Gemme Fluide Districante Azione Antistatica, con olio di Jojoba

Hi dear!

During my expedition in Italy I bought some new products for hair and since I've been disappointed by the spray by Garnier I thought to try this oily-gelly product by Dikson, a brand specialized in hair care products. It is very similar in consistence and action to my beloved L'Oreal extraordinary oil!

The only difference is the price, in fact this oil by Dikson costed me about 4 €, so half the price in respect to the L'oreal one! So very affordable! The only thing is that it has a strange perfume, too much synthetic. 

I apply it after washing my hair only on the tips. It is very hydrating and nourishing! Moreover it contains UV filter and it has an antistatic action!

My rating: 9/10

I would buy it again, for sure!

Have you ever heard of this product?

Hair Products - Oil Repair 3, Balsamo Duo Senza Risciacquo, Garnier Fructis

Hi dear!

This summer (past..) I found out by chance, in a Italian shop 'Acqua & Sapone', this interesting product for just 2 €.

So, since I have long hair and I was searching for a light product for combing, without rinsing it, I couldn't resist! 

Let's start saying that it has a marvelous fruity perfume, typical of Garnier Fructis hair products. Technically it has been thought as an instant hair conditioner, so a light moisturizer.

To be honest it does not help combing and it does not nourish evidently hair.

Maybe it slightly hydrates hair in very hot summer days, but it does not contain any UV filter.

My rating: 4/10

Price: about 2 €

I would not buy it again!

Garnier says: Fructis 3 Oil Therapy Leave-in Oil Spray

Contains 3 nourishing ingredients to hydrate and nourish hair: Olive Oil, Avocado, and Shea Butter 

Give your hair the nourishment it deserves with Olive Oil, Avocado Oil, and Shea butter to instantly nourish the insides and the outside of the hair for a healthy shine.

Have you ever heard of this product?

Hair Products - Pantene PRO-V B7 Spray Fibro-Rinforzante

Hi dear!

Last year (...) I bought this spray for hair by Pantene.

I think that it would have helped my hair being more beautiful and strong, but it acts only drying my hair. 

So, I'm very disappointed! I was expecting something more by Pantene, which is a brand to which I associate good quality.

Unfortunately, the second ingredient is alcohol...that's why it dries so much my hair.

My rating: 0/10

Price: about 3 €

I would not buy it again for sure!

Hair Conditioner - Enliven, Raspberry & Red Apple, natural fruit extract

Hi dear!

I also tried this conditioner by Enliven. As I said this brand is produced in England. It is a good product, not a wow one. It is a standard conditioner that permits to comb well hair after the treatment. 

My rating for the quality and price is 7/10.

Here some photos and additional information:

Have you ever tried this product?

If so, what's your opinion?

Hair Products - Leave-in Combing Cream by Yves Rocher

Hi dear,

I'm back again with an hair care product by Yves Rocher..

...

Ok, even this time I had a very bad experience. This product is very similar to the Serum of the past post here on the blog.

First: this product absolutely does not help in combing hair.

Second: after application hair appears greasy & stuck together, so if you have just washed your hair, and if you have very long hair, you will not be happy for sure!!

Third: my advice is to avoid this product.

My rating: 0/10.

Here some photos:
