Hi lovlies.. happy sunday :-) i have a shopping plan today am so excited about that.. obviously every girl will be happy and excited when it comes to shopping :-) so before i get into my shopping drama i thought i should blog a review on a product today that everyone's been talking about currently or i should say flaunting about :-P its a hair care product from garnier which is called GARNIER FRUCTIS OIL-IN-CREAM OIL REPLACEMENT CREAM. I am a huge fan of hair oiling.. i prepare my own hair oil at home with my moms old recipe which never let me down.. i do overnight oiling twice a week..
I first saw this product on instagram and i immediately googled the product and i saw some good reviews on it and so i wanted to try this product.. i picked up mine in H&G near me.. :-) they had two different sizes and i picked up the small one.. just to try it first.. i cannot say i love the product but i like it a lot.. just so convinient to use.. i use this cream as a leave-in-conditioner or a frizz taming cream on the go.. :-)
PRICE : 60 rs for 100ml
SHELF LIFE : 36 months
WHAT DOES THE PRODUCT SAYS :
INGREDIENT LIST :
As you can see, am too lazy to type all those product description and ingredients list.. posting a picture is lot more easier ;-) " A picture is worth a thousand words " they say.. so.. yeah.. lets stick to the concept :-P
PACKAGING
To me personally packaging doesnt even matters.. if its functional, that is all i want :) this product comes in a very attractive packaging.. it is definitely gonna grab your attention at stores.. it comes in a yellow tube as you can see with a flip open cap which is sturdy so its not gonna break and leak when you take it in your hand bag.
FRAGRANCE :
i love the smell of it.. it smells so fruity..i currently use dove shampoo which smells really nice.. its smell stays for a very long time.. this hair cream covers the fragrance of the dove shampoo.. i can smell only my cream and not my shampoo :-) but it lasts only for about 8 to 9 hours after which it kinda fades away..
TEXTURE :
It looks and feels like a normal conditioner. :-) i need not explain much about the texture now.. but when you apply it on your hair.. it makes your hair lil wet looking and it get absorbed in just five minutes.
PERFORMANCE :
I once shampooed my hair without conditioning it.. my hair in general is quite dry.. i applied this cream after towel drying my hair.. it felt exactly the same way as it would have felt when i used a hair conditioner while shampooing my hair.. it does not feel sticky at all.
It tames my frizz and makes my hair much more manageable. it does not give a huge amount of shine to my hair but it definitely makes my hair soft. This effect lasts only for a day.. the next day you might have to reapply the cream.. my ends some times feels extraordinarily dry.. i use this on my ends to just to smoothen it up a bit.. It helps detangling my hair. but i cannot say my comb just slides through my hair but it definitely makes the process easier.
Looking at the ingredients list am afraid to use this on my scalp or to use it as my overnight hair mask.. so s it definitely is not a replacement for oil. but it is a good leave-in-conditioner and a frizz tamer..
PROS
1. Tames frizz
2. Makes my hair soft and smooth.
3. Helps in detangling
4. smells really nice
5. affordable
CONS
1. The smooth effect doesnt last for more than a day
2. ingredient list is a paragraph full of chemicals :-/
SUMMING UP MY REVIEW :
I would not say it completely replaces my good old hair oil. But it makes the hair much more manageable. and it makes the hair smell really fruity and fresh. its a good product over all.
MY RATING
3.9/5 ( looking at the claims they make awarding 4 would not do justice.. but its overall a good buy )
THANK YOU :-)
