Hi lovelies, hows life? So I am fortunate that I’ve got curly hair with good amount of volume which are very too good to look at. But only to look at, beacuase taming frizz is a daily battle and getting manageable hair is somewhat a dream for me. Frizzy hair look dull and are difficult to style. So ,usually it’s a “bad hair day” for me. So I am constantly looking for something that can manage my hair which puffs up like a lion’s mane.
The main cause of frizzy hair is lack of moisture. The cuticle layers on hair strands need moisture to make them smooth. So in my constant battle against frizz, I bought L’Oreal Elvive Smooth Anti Frizz Serum. And Did i win? lets discuss

Conclusion:
Pros:
1.It makes the hair smooth and adds little shine to it.
2.Its Non sticky and non-greasy. So, doesn’t weigh the hair down.
3. It is mildly perfumed,so the smell is not overpowering.
4. The packing is travel friendly and user friendly.
Cons:
Right after application my hair looks shiny and smooths well, but unfortunately for me the effects only lasts for about half an hour and then my frizz comes back with a vengeance and still I have to struggle to manage them.
So actually I lost.I read a lot of reviews about this product before buying it. There were some really good and promising reviews so my expectations from this product were very high. But I think I’m going to be the odd one out for this product as I’ve to say it didn’t work for me. I gave it a try for a good 4 months and recently just chucked it. I think I should re-kindle my love with The Body Shop beautifying oil.
So those was my thoughts on this serum.I hope you like the. Don’t forget to share your experience with me . I’ll see you guys soon.
Thanks
