Garnier Sleek & Shine Anti Frizz Serum Review

Well l lie. Garnier does change…just the ockaging to keep up with the times haha! The reason I am reviewing this is because I cleaned my room the other day and found this old bad boi. For reference: I am 28. I bought this product when I was 16 from a countdown supermarket for $15 and instantly regretted my impulse buy that broke the bank. I’m excited to say the smell, texture, grease factor and oil shine levels are that of a brand new bottle. This worries me a little that 12 years later this stuff still smells the same. Anyway. My hair is think and frizzy and I would basically LATHER my hair with it which, at the time, I would say made me look put together, effortless and left me smelling like people would want to lick my hair. I look back now and realise I looked rank. Oh well!

I really like this hair serum. I find it does what it says and makes my hair feel nice and smooth. I have wavy/curly hair and applying the serum definitely reduces the frizz and makes my hair look more put together. I do really like to use it after i blow dry or straighten my hair as it brings back the shine and softens the dry ends of my hair. Great easy to use packaging, lasts forever since you only need a small amount, great price. Would recommend.

I love this product on my wavy/curly hair and even when I straighten it. It took me a while to really figure out how it worked best for me. The scent is great, but it can be easy to put too much product into your hair. I find that this product does last a while as you really don't need much.

I have wavy dry hair and it gets really frizzy so i bought this product hoping it would help. My hair is long and i find 1 pump to be way too much and leaves my hair an oily mess. This is the type of product i like to use overnight my dry ends can soak it up or when i do use it during the day i like to use it after iv'e curled my hair and i use about half a pump. It is really good for using after iv'e used heat on my hair as that's when my hairs its driest.

back in the day garnier was seen as an "it" brand, and i guess in some ways they still are. as they were a supermarket brand they always seemed a bit too expensive, but in the years since i was a teen their prices have become much more affordable, especially with their half price sales they often have.

this is one such product that i feel was highly coveted, as i had never seen a hair serum before, and to get a bottle of that size was just unheard of for a hair product. the green bottle tied in well with their range, although now they seem to have changed things up and added in new colors (yay!) as well as a plethora of new products.

the smell is incredible, i don't know what it is but i know i love it, and i can't stop sniffing my hair once i've used it. sadly that's probably the only good thing i like about it. the serum feels oily and horrible, even wiping my hands after doesn't get rid of the greasy sensations.

this serum also weighed down my hair something fierce and left it looking dull and lifeless, like i had been living rough for a bit and had no shower. no matter how little i used i still got this result. i did find it worked quite well mixed in with some hair masks i had lying around, as i could wash and shampoo it out again, but otherwise, its a below average product for me, and it's only redeeming quality is the smell :'(

I used this at first when my hair was damaged and I was desperate for it to look shiny again.

The oil itself is nice, and there's plenty of it for the spend, however it is super greasy so you only need the tiniest amount, and even then it might be too much. For my damaged hair it didn't really do a whole lot except leave it looking greasy

Since then, I've gone on to have a pixie cut, and my hair is really healthy, so continuing using this product I now do really like using it to give a little extra shine and texture to my style, which it does really easily. I still need to wash it out each day otherwise I'm left with really oily, flat looking hair but the shine when styling with it is really impressive.

It's not my most favourite shine oil, but value for money this is fantastic if used really sparingly.

I was a little skeptical at first buying this product because I previously hadn't been overly impressed with Garnier hair products. However, I absolutely love this product and have bought it multiple times. I have naturally curly hair and it gets very frizzy with humidity and this product is an absolute savior. I apply a little before blow drying/straightening and then another bit after to keep my hair in place and it works like a dream. Probably one of my favourite hair products and the low price is just an added bonus.

Like the colour of the bottle makes it stand out from other products. Serum has a nice fruity smell. I use a product that I bought from Kmart but it does not keep the fly aways at bay like this product from Garnier. Gives my hear a nice sleek and shiny look and keeps most of the frizz tame.

I would however be a bit careful on the amount being used as too much can make your hair oily and sticky feeling. I start off by using a little bit first and if I need more will add a very small amount to the existing product.

All in all for the price definitely worth it and will buy it again and recommend to friends

The packaging is really attractive and the first thing that caught my eye on the shelf. The product gets rid of the majority of frizz in my hair but doesn't give a 100% sleek and smooth effect. When straightening my hair it does gave me oftness and shine. One has to be very careful how much you apply to your hair as using too much will leave your hair looking greasy. It makes my hair have a really beautiful, natural shine, soft and manageable and really gets rid of some of the frizz. Also it has a very lovely, pleasant smell. As this product is really inexpensive and works relatively well, I would recommend this to my friends
