WHY I LOVE THIS PRODUCT
I had purchased this when I was in the States at the L'occitane store in Woodbury. I had wanted to purchase a new hair mask since my Essential NUANCE AIRY Ultra Honey Hair Mask was running low and I had always wanted to try L'occitane products. Plus, it was really cheap at the outlet ($11 USD) comparing to the retail price, which is $22 USD.
Basically, I use this product once a week (or twice a week in the winter time because my hair gets really dry) after shampooing. I would first towel dry my hair and then slathered the product on. Then I would put a disposable shower cap on and wait for 20-30 minutes. I like to have the product on my hair for a little bit longer because my hair is really dry at the moment. Then I would wash it all out afterwards and the next day, my hair would feel so different. The ends of my hair are fully moisturized and it leaves my hair really smooth and silky.
The product doesn't have a very strong smell, it actually smells like baby powder. (Haha, yeah I love things that smell like baby powder). The texture is thick and thus, it will stay in the hair and will not slip out. Another positive side about this product is that you can actually use it as a leave-in conditioner as well. Just rub a little bit of the product in the ends of your hair everyday so it stays moisturized. I wouldn't suggest putting any in the roots of your hair because the product is quite thick and it can become oily throughout the day.
However, this product is quite pricey if it's sold at its regular price. I have really long hair and thus, the amount in the contain will probably only last me for a month if I use it twice weekly. If you have shorter hair, it can probably last you for a longer period. But the results are quite good and I think it's worth the hefty price tag.
