Dove Nourishing Oil Care Repair Mask Review

Hey all. Today I am going talk about the Repair Mask, the last member in the Dove Nourishing Oil Care kit, that I received few weeks ago. Till date, I have tried only two hair masks, once in a hair spa (I don't remember the name of the product the beautician used) and the other is from L’Oreal Total Repair 5 range, but none made any perceptible difference to my frizzy hair. So, I didn’t have any high expectations from this, as in general Dove products rarely work for me. Still I thought of using it and here is my view on it.

PRICE:  Rs.300 

QUANTITY: 200 ml 

WHAT IT CLAIMS:

“Deep inside nourishment and repair for 99% smoother hair based on a lab test in comparison with a non-conditioning shampoo. The vita oils are supposedly a blend of coconut, almond and sunflower oils and are absorbed rapidly. They nourish the hair without leaving it greasy.”

INGREDIENTS & DIRECTIONS TO USE:

MY EXPERIENCE: This is a weekly repair mask which I have used in two different ways. First was just an experiment that I did 2-3 times, I tried this on, from middle to tips of my dry hair (like pre-shampoo oil), kept it for 20-30 minutes and shampooed and then used the Dove Nourishing Oil Care conditioner. The other method was, as given in directions I applied it on my shampooed hair in place of the conditioner and kept it on for 5-7 minutes. In both cases, I didn’t see it making any huge difference to my hair than that I receive from normal Shampoo + Conditioner.

WHAT I LIKED:

• It has butter smooth consistency and spreads easily on the hair.
• It gives shine and bit of smoothness to the hair.
• Doesn’t make hair oily and limpy.
• Hair stays soft till next day.
• I like its strong fragrance and it persists till next day.
• The 200 ml pack would last really long.

WHAT I DIDN’T LIKE:

• No visible change in the frizz.
• Doesn’t help when hair becomes wiry in this dry winter days.

VERDICT: It was neither bad nor much good experience for me and I don’t see why I would invest on this when I am getting better results with their conditioner. If you don’t have frizzy hair and just want some shine and softness then you can try out this product.

RATINGS:  3.5 out of 5
