Dove Nourishing Oil Care Repair Mask {Product Review}

Price: Rs 300 for 200ml

My Experience

The mask is creamy and light and spreads very easily in the hair. I have used it thrice yet and can easily say that it makes the hair super soft and keeps it conditioned. Though, I would also add that it is important to follow this up with the conditioner otherwise the hair does remain frizzy!! And, it is light enough that one can use it twice a week too because I didn’t feel that its effects last for a week. Ok, one more thing I would say that this tub would last me quite a while because you can see the finger traces and amount of the mask used up till now. For every wash, I use two scoops of the mask and spread it on towel-dried hair and keep it on till 5-7 minutes minimum.

sorry for the bad snap!!
So, this is the third product of the Dove Nourishing Oil Care range. Read on to find out if I liked it or not.
Price: Rs 300 for 40ml (definitely costly)
My Experience

The serum is very clear and since my hair volume is less and my hair is fine, I need only a single or sometimes two pumps. If I take more, my hair would weigh down. The texture of the serum looks oily but it disappears into the hair as soon as you apply it. And, it detangles the hair very nicely and imparts a sheen to the hair. I don’t know if it does anything more than that but it does what it says above – leaves the hair softer and shinier and as to the nourishment factor, I don’t know. But, I don’t think if it helps to make the hair look more hydrated. As far as my experience goes, it creates a layer on the hair and locks in whatever is on your hair so it is good to apply hydrating serums before using this. But, this product doesn’t weigh down the hair or leave any residue behind. Its definitely a good product to use during any special occasion or the like.

Have you tried it yet?

Price: Rs 160 for 180ml

sorry for the hazy snap but it has a really reflective surface!!!
My Experience
Ok, I am a little double minded about the conditioner. It is a really thick conditioner and is two-colored just as it says – the white stripe with a golden stripe. I think it has a tendency to weigh down the hair but if you don’t apply it properly, it wouldn’t give any results. So, to get results from this product, the quantity of the product has to be in balance with the time. For the first few times, I used two dollops of conditioner on water-squeezed hair and left the conditioner for 2-5 minutes each time. And, that I think weighed down my hair a bit but hair was soft and shiny. Where as, the last time I used, I was short of time and so I used only one dollop of conditioner and kept it for only a minute or may be under that and my hair was really not fine. It wasn’t so shiny and it looked frizzy. So, its a hit and trial method with this product but it does deliver results.
I have just one problem with it – the conditioner is extremely thick. I am really sorry for the lack of snaps but I couldn’t take out time before leaving to click them. So, I shall update this probably in sometime. But, the conditioner is thick and it doesn’t glide on the hair easily. So, keep the hair damp enough but not wet or even too dry which will make you end up using more product and might weigh down the hair. So, its kind of an important regimen of this range which can’t be ignored at all.
