Garnier Fructis Hair Food Aloe Vera

I used this as part of a trial with the shampoo and conditioner of the same range. I like that this can be used as a conditioner/hair mask/leave in product. I have used as a conditioner and a hair mask and I think it made for a nice moisturising conditioner but as a hair mask I much prefer other hair masks as they much more richer and thicker than this and my hair definitely didn't feel as soft with this product. Easy to apply, easy to rinse off and has a faint pleasant scent.

I love the Garnier Hair Food masks - I can't go by them when they're on sale, they always end up in my trolley!

Like the rest of the range this comes in a large tub. It makes scooping a nice dollop out easy, but it can get a bit water logged if you have no where to put it in the shower that's handy to reach but out of the shower stream.

This mask is super thick, rich and creamy. I sort of scoop up a dollop in the middle of my palm (how does one quantify a dollop?!) I've used this a few times for my review but will likely only use once a week from now on.

It's immediately softening and a wide tooth comb glides through. After use my hair feels so soft and is shiny . It looks healthy and refreshed, but isn't fluffy or unmanageable.

I basically leave it in for around 3 minutes, so I guess I'm using it as a mask more than a conditioner, but it would be perfect to use as a conditioner (maybe less slathering for more than weekly use?)

I haven't tried it as a leave-in, the idea doesn't appeal to me, as a regular hair oil user and I'm more than happy with its performance as a mask.

The only reason this isn't full marks for me is simply the fragrance isn't that WOW factor the other Hair Food flavours have. It's nice, its fresh, but it isn't mouth wateringly yummy, which I've come to expect from the range.

As a fan of Garnier hair care I was excited to receive this to review.

It's very thick, like a super luxe conditioner. It has a lovely scent, it reminds me of cool cucumber.

I like the tub, it's full of information, and is very sturdy. You could take it away with you in your overnight bag or suitcase.

I think this is too rich for a conditioner, but as a treatment mask it is amazing. Hair is left very smooth and silky and looks less frizzy. I was left with an amazing shine to my blonde hair.

If you're using this as a leave-in product, go easy, you only need the teeniest amount to use as a smoothing balm.

I'll definitely happily pick this up again when I run out, it's a really lovely, nourishing mask!

This hair mask comes in a big round pottle, has a semi thick white consistency and a lovely scent.

You can use this product three ways, as a normal conditioner, a hair mask after conditioning but while still in the shower or deep hair mask on dry hair which you can leave on for upto 10 minutes.

I used this product all three ways and found it work great. Each time it left my hair looking healthy with a natural glow. My hair also did not become oily quickly like it normally would which meant I didn't have to wash it as often as I generally would.

The only thing I personally felt was that my hair was quite tangled up afterwards so I didn't use it as a conditioner, more of a leave in mask on dry hair is what I preferred after trialing the three ways.

I would however recommend and will definitely use this range again as I liked it overall.

I've used a Garnier hair mask before, they really do the best and most value for money hair masks around! Like their other masks, this one also smells divine and left my hair silky smooth. I used it as a mask and left it on for a few hours, it thoroughly moisturised my hair (maybe over moisturised if that's a thing?) so might cut down on the time next time but if your hair is very dry then you'll love it

I really liked this product - it has that classic Garnier fruity scent which is divine!

I used it both as a mask and as a conditioner. I preferred using it as a mask, it is a bit thicker than my standard conditioner. It's a generous size tub and tempting to use more product than needed cause it smells so good! Since it was only me using it, I didn't mind scooping it up with my hands, however, if I was sharing it I would probably get a little scoop to use.

I think it's great how the ingredients are laid out on the back, super simple for me to understand. Garnier is my go-to supermarket brand hair care, I grew up with it (sleek and shine!)

I’ve really been enjoying this hair food. I use it along side the shampoo and conditioner. It makes my hair in sanely soft&smooth;. I’d definitely buy it and recommend to others. Is it my absolute favourite probably not! But for the price I think it’s good! And garnier is working hard to be less chemicals which is so cool to see!

First of all, this product comes in a very generous size. A little goes a long way so I am very happy that it will last me a while. I like that there is no pump, it gives you full control to scoop out as much as you want from the container, and you can make sure you get every last bit when you're running low.

I tried this as a leave- in conditioner and a hair mask in the shower. As a leave-in conditioner the product goes on well. It spreads and coats my hair evenly leaving it smelling deliciously fresh. It does feel a little slimy at first - and you can feel that it has coated your hair. However, once the product soaks in, my hair was left feeling softer and more hydrated. As a mask, it was similar. I noticed some increased hydration, but found that the biggest results came from leaving it in.

I would definitely use this product again, my only wish would be to have an Aloe Vera Hair Food product that had an inbuilt curl enhancer/holder. That would really tick every box for me.

I personally found this too nourishing as it weighed my hair down throughout the day but could see how someone with dry ends might find this helpful. I still love the smell of this range and the price point is affordable yet effective. I think this mask would be perfect for hair that has been bleached, the bleach can be incredibly drying on hair.
