L'oreal Extraordinary Oil (with UV Filter Protection)

Thanks to lovely Meryl of Memoiselle, I got a chance to attend the L'oreal event whereby we were introduced to the new L'oreal Extraordinary Oil with UV Filter Protection. I was excited to see what is different between this version of Extraordinary Oil versus the first generation Extraordinary Oil which comes in the gold coloured pump.

L'oreal Extraordinary Oil with UV Filter contains 6 flower extracts: Flax, Tiare, Rose, Lotus, Chamomile and Matricaria. This really explains why the scent smells so soothing. Coupled with the UV Filter, it helps to moisturise your hair and even protects fading of coloured hair. This really got me excited because I have not seen any hair oil which claims to be able to protect colour of coloured hair.

Compared to the first generation of Extraordinary Oil, I really really much prefer the texture of this new oil. The oil is light and almost felt like water on my palm and when I massaged into my hair ends after a wash, I almost felt nothing on my palm after that.

I have been using L'oreal Extraordinary Oil with UV Filter for the past 1 month in humid Singapore as well as cold, dry Shanghai and I can only say that I LOVE it. Not only does it provide moisture to my coloured, permed hair, it does not weigh down my hair. Most importantly, I do not get breakouts along my jawline (I do get breakout along my jaw where my hair ends touches my skin when using a unsuitable hair oil).

Retailing at $26.90 for 100ml, L'oreal Extraordinary Oil with UV Filter is definitely an affordable product. Most importantly, it works!
