This month I went with a thermal protection spray and two products to bring some shine back to my hair.
Above The Clouds Volumizing Mousse – 4 oz, value: $15
I am constantly seeking volume. I was eager to try this product when I saw it in eSalon's line. It is a light mousse that you apply on towel-dry hair. I was pretty conservative when applying (I get oily so easily from excess product!). I noticed a slight difference when drying my hair but after it was dry, I didn't notice that light, volumized feel I like from other volumizers. I didn't love this product.
Heart Lock It Color Safe Shampoo – 8.5 fl oz, value: $15
This was my second time trying an eSalon shampoo. I'm always looking for a great everyday color preserving shampoo. I appreciate that the shampoo and conditioners are different colors which is so great for people like me who wear glasses. This didn't have much fragrance, just a hint of a sweet smell. This isn't a shampoo with a rich lather but my hair definitely felt clean after using it.
Love Unconditionally Color Safe Conditioner –8.5fl oz, value: $15
Just like the shampoo, this conditioner didn't have a strong fragrance but did smell lightly floral. It definitely made my hair feel softer and smoother in the shower. I preferred this over the shampoo.
Verdict: I have colored my hair for as long as I can remember so I am always on the lookout for products that will keep my color bright for longer. The shampoo didn't lather as much as I like and the fragrance was forgettable. The conditioner was pretty good though and is something I'll reach for to mix things up. The mousse didn't have a noticeable effect on my hair so it was a miss for me. Overall, eSalon’s the Match Up is still a great way to try a variety of eSalon's products at a discount.
