Introducing Moroccanoil Smooth

Moroccanoil recently introduced their brand new Smooth Collection. As I am more than a little obsessed with Moroccanoil, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on it.

If you’ve never tried any Moroccanoil products and are still not sure if the splurge is worth it, you are welcome to read about my first experience with the brand HERE. I was also unsure at first as there are many cult brands who aren’t necessarily as great as they are made out to be. Moroccanoil definitely does not fall in that category. Oh man, I love this stuff. And yes, the scent is as gorgeous as everyone says. Please Moroccanoil, bring the body and sun ranges to our shores! Back to Smooth…

Introducing Moroccanoil Smooth

Moroccanoil Smooth Collection review Pretty Please Charlie blog

‘Moroccanoil Smooth Collection formulations are enriched with our proprietary Moroccanoil argan oil-infused blend, potent and ultra-nourishing argan butter, as well as coconut derived fatty acids, which leaves hair soft, shiny and instantly more manageable. Designed for all hair types, the products are free of sulfates, phosphates, parabens, and are also completely color-safe.’        

This range is suitable for all hair types and aims to smooth the hair to increase shine and manageability.

I received the shampoo and conditioner and I am happy to report that my hair feels amazing. My curls are smooth (read: a lot less frizzy), soft and shaped. I love that after I rinse the conditioner, my hair feels nourished and cared for without a heavy coating (which I find a few smoothing ranges to do). The only negative is that my hair feels ‘hard’ after I shampoo. I don’t really understand why as I know my hair isn’t stripped. But after I apply the conditioner, my hair feels soft and easy to detangle. The combination of the shampoo and conditioner seems to work well.

There is also a mask and a smoothing lotion in the range. I am very keen to see how the lotion will work with my curls.

The products retail between R350 and R570 and is avaibale from Retailbox and leading salons.

INOAR Absolut DayMoist Shampoo and Conditioner Review

This hair care brand can do no wrong in my books. You can read previews posts and reviews of INOAR HERE and HERE. Today I want to tell you about the new INOAR Absolut DayMoist range.

INOAR Absolut DayMoist Shampoo and Conditioner

INOAR Absolut DayMoist

 

This is what INOAR says:

The action of the synergic complex of the Cornstarch and the Beet Extract, along with the exclusive Daymoist CLRTM, restores the hair protecting the integrity of the Alpha Helix in charge of the keratin maintenance. It increases hair elasticity, preserves colour and shine, protects from discolouring and prepares the hair for high temperature treatments.

Now, I have no idea what exactly an Alpha Helix is or what the benefits of cornstarch and beet extract is in hair care products, nor do I really care. What matters to me is how the products perform. And my oh my, does it perform.

I had the opportunity to try the shampoo and conditioner and both are absolute winners.

The INOAR Absolut DayMoist Shampoo is most definitely one of the best shampoos I have ever used. If you have dry and/or damaged hair like me, you have to try it. My hair is left super soft after every wash. I have to remind myself to apply conditioner as my hair is so silky that I can actually detangle it without it. Curly girls will know that we usually need handfuls of conditioner to do that. This shampoo leaves my hair feeling clean, nourished and cared for. The word ‘wow’ comes to mind every time I think about it. The product itself is thick and luxurious and has a beautifully sweet and creamy scent. It truly is a treat to use. INOAR Absolut DayMoist Shampoo (250ml) retails for R220.

The INOAR Absolut DayMoist Conditioner is also a goodie. The conditioner was actually lighter than I expected yet it still did exactly what I need it to. My hair feels soft and nourished, detangling is quick and easy and my hair is super shiny after use. It also doesn’t weigh my hair down at all. A little goes a long way. INOAR Absolut DayMoist Conditioner (250ml) retails for R220.

There is also a mask in the range. What it does: The mask was developed with flower extracts and an exclusive formula with an ultra-hydrating DayMoist CLRTM for intense conditioning and glow, recovery of hair elasticity, easy combing and protection of hair damaged by heat and colouring. It’s said to provide instant shine and restoration. I haven’t had the opportunity to try it yet, but judging by the quality and efficacy of the shampoo and conditioner, I’m sure it is a gem. The INOAR Absolut DayMoist Mask (250ml) retails for R350.

You can purchase these beauties from INOAR Professional Stockist Hair Salons or you can order directly from the INOAR Head Office in Pretoria. Phone +27 12 686 7067 or email info@inoar.co.za.
