Briogeo, Don't Despair, Repair!
Hello lovelies,
today I'm bringing you another review, well… Maybe I should't call it a review, because I got this as a sample in my March Look Fantastic Box, so maybe first impression? I don't know and I think it doesn't matter how we are going to call it. I have some opinion and I'm gonna share it with all of you, so keep on reading.
Price
Just because I got this in my beauty box, I don't know the exact price, but I was searching and Sephora.com offers 1 oz of the mask for $9. This means that the full size packaging (8 oz) is for $36 and I think it's on the little bit pricier side, but it's not that bad.
Packaging
As I said above, I got only 1 oz which means that I used it twice (I have long hair). This mini size came in plastic little squeezing tube with a nice design on. To be honest, I like it very much, because my nails are getting longer and longer, so it was easier to put the product on my hands (I'm pretty sure you know what I'm talkig about - when the product gets stuck under your nails, what a waste and horrible sensation, right?)
Texture and scent
I was pretty surprised how thin this mask was (it reminded me mousse cream), because all my masks are thick and thanks this I always had the feel like it nourishes my hair very well. So this was kinda new to me. The scent was very gentle, comfortable and I ejoyed it way too much. The only con I see that the scent is not strong enough. It didn't stay too long in my hair, so I wish I could've smelled it at least for a few hours.
Application
I don't know how about you, but I always need to put a lot to cover my whole hair, but not that a lot like with this product. Maybe it's because of the mousse cream texture, but I had to applied at least double of my normal amount to spread the product everywhere around my sculp and it took me some time as well. I left it about 5-10 min and then washed it off.
Final thoughts
As much as I really want to be impressed by this product, because I read some amazing reviews on this. On Sephora website this has a decent number of stars. But, I wasn't that happy about it. My hair felt little bit smoother, but not as much as I expected and what I want from it. I have to brush my hair wet and it was little bit difficult after using this, so I had to use Coconut Water from OGX to actually make it less painful. After all for me this mask is like another average hair mask from drugstore. I don't see the best result and for this price of full packaging? I would never buy this for myself. I still think that the Macadamia Deep Repair Masque or Neutrogena Triple Moisture Deep Recvery Hair Mask are much better and they cost less money. So I don't think I would ever recommend this to everyone, it's just not the best product on market for me. At the end I should just add, that I rate this product with three stars, because it's not the best but not the worst product either, just an average.

Have you tried this mask? What do you think about it?
Have a great day!

I got this in an Ipsy bag and I really liked it! I agree, you do have to use a ton of product. I have a feeling the full size wouldn't last long. Great review x

Yeah, I think I would used up the whole packaging in one or two months.
DeleteI've only tried a leave in conditioner from this brand and it was just okay. Thank you for the honest review, I think I'll give this a miss. On another note, OGX Coconut Water range was horrid on my hair, I know many love it but it didn't work out for me at all.
ReplyDeleteI think it's totally normal that something works for someone and other is not, but it's always good to hear everyone's experiences.
DeleteToo bad this product does not work for you, I hate it when I have to use a lot of product to make something work for me, I have long hair too and I have been using many deep conditioning masks too. Great review!

Thank you. I agree, I prefer something thick so I don't have to waste with the product jut because I have long hair.
DeleteI have tried their leave-in conditioner and while I liked it, I didn't love it. This sounds like a pass for me as I'm not sure it would give me the hydrating and shine I'm looking for. Great review!

Thank you. I think if we have the chance then we should try everything in mini samples so we can have our own opinion. But honestly I don't think this would be something what you are looking for.
DeleteI haven't heard of this brand before, but thanks for your honest review!

You're welcome Claire.
DeleteYou're welcome.
ReplyDeleteHi Michelle, I just found a listing for this on beauty bay for the full size for $51 - gee, for that price I'd want you to give it 5 stars lol! I do enjoy the opportunity to try new products that these beauty boxes provide though - some misses of course, but lots of hits as well xxx
ReplyDeleteOh, wow, $51? That's crazy, hah. I'm happy I kinda didn't like, because then I wouldn't have to think about buying. :D
DeleteThank you for your comment!
