To quickly note, I received this for a small fee from 0.8 Liter for my honest review, this post is not sponsored.
This treatment contains 150 ml (5.07 oz) and has a musky kind of scent, however it doesn't linger.
It has a very sticky texture like you might expect from any product with snail secretion filtrate.
Recommended use is to apply to clean, wet hair. Dispense treatment into hand depending on hair damage level, apply liberally through hair and rinse out. Can be used daily or 2-3 times a week. Direction for lightly-damaged hair: use 2 times a week, apply the treatment and rinse out after about 3 minutes. Direction for damaged hair: use 3 times a week, apply the treatment and let hair sit for 10 minutes, rinse well with cool water. Direction for heavily-damaged hair: use daily, gently massage treatment on damaged parts of hair and employ heat for 15 minutes and then rinse well with cool water. After using, I found that immediately after applying to the hair, it really makes it easy and super silky before you rinse out your hair, so perfect for a wet brush. My hair does have some damage from coloring it from time to time, but I usually leave treatments while I shave so about 15-20 minutes. After rinsing it out, my hair just feels so smooth and silky and my hair just looks brighter and feels less dull. I think this would be a great thing to use on hair with damage from bleaching especially. I do wish there were more than 150 ml in the tube. Overall try this for dried and dull hair or hair damaged by heat or coloring.
What I like: this treatment really makes your hair feel silky and it has a really sticky texture which I think is so cool. It has great ingredients and really moisturizes my hair and helps with dullness. Makes hair so manageable for a wet brush in the shower. My hair feels great after and feels softer and more moisturized. What I don't like: the scent isn't my favorite, it's like a musky scent that's not the best. If you're sensitive to mineral oil, avoid this.
Pros:
Moisturizing
Makes hair silky
Really helps with dullness
Adds radiance
Great ingredients
Sticky texture
Cons:
Scent
Mineral Oil (for those of you who are sensitive to it)
