L'Oreal Paris Smooth Intense Smoothing Conditioner - Silicone Free conditioner Review

Since the day I started reading the ingredients rather than going by the product claims to choose the right hair products ,I am always on the hunt for silicone-free ,sulfate-free ,paraben-free products . In this hunt I learnt that not many products are easily available in India especially in the budget friendly range .
Sooner , I somehow found this L'Oreal Paris Smoothing Conditioner which is very much budget friendly one and easily available in nearby stores .

Product description :

  • L'Oreal have harnessed the power of silk protein and Argan oil which is rich in essential fatty nutrients 
  • Deep Nourishment : the creme formula nourishes and smoothes your hair from root to tip making it look more smooth and manageable .

Ingredients:


Price: Rs.185 for 175 ml (at the time of my purchase)

Texture : very much thick in consistency

Packaging: This comes in plastic bottle with flip cap as like other L'Oreal Paris variants .

Fragrance: It has a strong smell which is not tropical fruity but that wanes away with wash .

Why Silicone Free ?

Silicone causes product build up which requires harsh sulfates to clean the silicone , the usage of harsh sulfates can in turn damage and dry your hair further .So to avoid this cycle of dryness ,it is advised to go silicone and sulfate free .

 I started using Silicone free products not just because of my Curly Hair method journey .I prefer Silicone free conditioners because it does not weigh down my hair .
Earlier when I was not particular and using silicone based ones , I felt that conditioners weighs down my hair greatly that I started skipping conditioners for that one reason and recently figured out that Silicone is the culprit !!


My take on this :

  • Now coming to review, this product is absolutely silicone and paraben free .
  • Also it has silk protein ,this also serves as a good protein treatment too.
  • Its very thick and dense and provides good conditioning .
  • It provides a decent slip to detangle .
  • I have had the most best hair days using this compared to other light conditioners so far. So it’s becoming my go-to product .
  • It was not much suitable for co-washing .(conditioner washing).I prefer light conditioners for co-washing 
  • I sometimes use a very little of this as a leave in before applying curl creams or gels .
  • It has isopropyl Alcohol ,but that's only towards the end of ingredient list that would be less than 1% .I think it doesn't matter when we can get this conditioner easily rather than ordering online for high end ones and waiting for days .(after all its cheap though):P.
  • Precisely ,the silicone free ,budget friendly and most importantly easily available conditioner in India suitable for all hair types .

My Reasons to LOVE Summers .....

Image
Being in Chennai,India with temperature hitting 37 degree Celsius ,one can have umpteen number of reasons to hate summers and love rains or other seasons. Even I have my own reasons to hate summers. But here in this post, I am writing my reasons to love summers (being positive with what you have mentality: P) I would like to list out the reasons though it may sound silly, but real ones and I hope everyone could relate to this. Exercising: No!! Don’t judge, let me complete. I am one such lazy cozy person who would roll up and sleep under blanket for hours together in winters, So I even wont imagine of hitting gym, going for a walk or even doing some HIET exercises at home during winters, particularly mornings. But in Summers, we have the advantage of early sunrise here in Chennai (may be in India as well) and that serves as a boost to at least try to go for a short walk or stretch out at home. Yes, I feel brisk during summers, so at least I would make some effort...
