The Best Shine Serums

[Aprill]

Umberto Giannini Dazzling Shine In The Spotlight Gloss Mist. The package says this aerosol contains "the wonder ingredient gold of pleasure oil." Oookay, I can't tell whether this sounds kinky or just plain ludicrous, but I definitely know that this mist delivers utterly weightless shine.

Redken Glass 01 Smoothing Serum. When I was 21, my stylist brainwashed me into thinking I wouldn't survive the summer without this shine-boosting, frizz-busting stuff, and despite her hard sell, she was right.

John Frieda Luminous Color Glaze Clear Shine. Colorist Kim Vo has his own product line and loads of top-shelf products to choose from, so when he couldn't stop raving to me about how well Frieda's Color Glazes work, I took him seriously. The super-affordable Clear Shine makes hair ultra reflective (even at the dull ends) and leaves hair feeling silky and sexy.

Frédéric Fekkai Glossing Cream. Italian spa proprietresses and old school starlets have long used olive oil to condition their hair. Frédéric Fekkai feels what they're saying—his creamy, olive oil-enriched Glossing Cream deep conditions hair while adding shine. Need more proof this stuff rules? It was last year's Allure Readers' Choice winner for best department store defrizzer. 'Nuff said.

thanks Aprill !! this frédéric Fekkai stuff sounds great.

thanks for sharing, the colour gloss does it leave a noticeable colour and is it permanent?

TIA

My stylist used Glass on me, and suggested I get it but I never did. Any thoughts on Redken Glass?

I used the John Frieda one, and it leaves your hair a "richer" color. For example, I used the blonde, and it made my blonde brighter. No, it is not permanet. It isn't a hair dye, just a color enhancer.

I really like the Frederic Fekkai Glossing Cream....been using it since it came out. I've used it when my hair was short, long, it's all good!

I use Venetian Blends - Crystal D'oro "weightless serum". It's awesome, not greasy, not heavy... I just love it.

 

[chic_chica]

the john frieda serum is realy good. i also use a product by avon...it comes it little capsules that u have to burst open

 

[girly_girl]

I plan to buy some Fekkai Glossing Creme, does it work very well?

 

[ticklishlpgrl]

i agree. i love frederick fekkai!

 

[moccah]

I have used a lot of those stupid serums but the best one is by far Ic fantasia serums

They have types of serum for every type of hair (colored, for straightening which even contains silicon for protect and spf, simple shine and so on) Its not expensive and lasts forever since it comes in a kind of big bottle and youll only need 5 drops of it for long hair....

 

[Johnnie]

I prefer Loma Reconstructive Serum.

 

[Adrienne]

Cool! thanks aprill

 

[emilyc]

there is also a fekkai glossing spray which works just as well. but i also recommend oscar blandi's olio di jasmine or kerastase oleo relax. good stuff.

I use Oscar blandi jasmine hair serum. I got a sample from sephora and loved it! Now I have the 5 ounce bottle. It's pricey and comes with a little but it lasts SO long. Hope I helped! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
