L'Oreal Paris Casting Creme Gloss Review

Loved it!!! L'Oreal has made it back glossy and shiny, felt lovely on my head and was easy to apply, I didn't like the way that it goes darker first but it will show after a week to the colour u desired I'm really happy with the colour and texture of my hair. I will be buying this product.

When I used this product and put the gloves on, I found them to be very small for my hands and tight wearing which wasn't pleasant.

After mixing the solution together I found it to be runny from the applicator bottle and was messier than other products that I have used.

The colour however did look good.

I got the dark brown and it is totally amazing... the amount of product was perfect to cover my whole head and still had a bit left over..love how it has no ammonia and hasnt got the strong chemical smell like most hair colours do. Completely covered my old colour that had gone orange with no trouble..the colour has left my hair shiney and looking healthy and the conditioner smells nice is enough for two washes..I have washed my hair 3 times already and the colour still looks brand new...

I used - medium brown I love the simplicity of this product. Products that alter appearances permanently make me a little bit nervous usually but this stuff is amazing. The instructions are really clear and the products are easy to mix together. I found the texture and smell to be quite alright for hair dye too. The colour was very even and glossy looking.

Colour choice : 1021- very light pearl blonde

First impression: wow what a different box! As soon as I opened the box I could smell the product! Loved it! Also the pink bottle! (not white for once) This really appealed to me!

Instructions for mixing and application were clear and very easy to follow. I used this to dye my regrowth.

Dye was easy flowing which really helped, and was quite bearable- this is a total plus to being ammonia free!!!!

After rinsing out the dye, I gave my hair a light shampoo and followed with the casting creme gloss conditioner. I was really happy with the amount of conditioner that was provided, the 60ml bottle gave me 2 good washes (I have long hair so I'm really happy about that). Instantly my hair felt so good! This is quite the opposite to other lighteners with ammonia. YAY!

The only downside of this hair dye was I found the smell of the conditioner, I found it quite strong after my hair had dried.

The result was brilliant! Came out a lot better then I had anticipated. Will definitely be purchasing this product in the future, and referring it to others! :)

I asked for the Light Brown Casting creme Gloss.I found it easy to prepare and smooth to apply.

L'Oreal Casting Creme Gloss left my hair feeling silky, shining and covered the horrible re-growth I had. It lightened my hair slightly but not by much as I have dark hair.

I was most impressed with the how easy and quick it was to prepare and apply. The shine and silky feeling when my hair dried. I let it dry naturally.

I would definitely use it again. I feel as though after a small number of times using this product I could have lighter hair and it would of been a healthy way of doing so, instead of stripping/bleaching my hair.

I found this product really easy to use and as it was crème, which means less chance of a mess (which is always good) I have very thick hair and was worried that I wouldn’t have enough product but I ended up with more than enough.

The colour was very rich and shiny and slightly darker than I expected, but as this is semi permanent, I know it will mellow with more washes. On a side note, the hair conditioner that comes in the pack smells lovely!

It’s only been a few washes now, but I am slightly sceptical that it will last the full 28 washes.

All in all, I found this to be a great formula so far.

It's been a long time since I've dyed my hair at home. A decade give or take? In fact it's been a long time since I've properly dyed my hair full stop. There were a few foils at a hairdressers a couple of years back, but that's it. What can I say? I wanted to see what colour my hair was after dying it for so many years. Turns out it's still poo brown. So what colour was I going to choose to dye my hair with? L'Oreal Casting Creme Gloss has a huge range to choose from, so with all the shades under the sun I went for ...... brown. Praline to be exact. I liked the idea that it would elevate my hair, giving it shimmering tones in place of its current dullness... and I was never one for crazy hair colours. I know, I'm a bore.

The packaging is really cute - not just a boring rectangular box, it kind of reminded me of a tetra pack and it easily held the contents inside; the colour tube, the application bottle, the gloves and the supersized conditioner.

Dye creation was super easy and well explained on the accompanying leaflet. Pop on gloves (which were the perfect fit for my little hands, but I don't know how a normal-handed person would fit them), squeeze tube into applicator, shake, remove tip, then apply dye. Easy done! Application was probably the least messiest I've ever experienced, in that I didn't manage to flick any onto the bathroom surrounds. Win! I also didn't need to use the whole bottle, although I tried my best, but there was a lot of product in there and I have long but fine hair, so that much wasn't necessary for me, but would be perfect for thicker haired ladies. The dye initially felt a little warm on my head, and I had a brief moment of wondering if perhaps I ought to have done the patch test. It turns out I had nothing to worry about, as it didn't get any warmer - oh and the dye smell was minimal. In the old days I'd have to wait around 40 minutes for the dye to do its thing, but this required only 20. I was worried that wouldn't be enough time for the colour to develop, but it turns out I had nothing to worry about.

The dye washed out in super quick time and the conditioner made it feel lovely and silky. There's still a good two thirds of a bottle left over of the conditioner too. Usually I wouldn't bother blow drying my hair, but I was dying to see what it looked like! Needless to say, I was stoked! The colour had hints of auburn, it looked natural, and my hair looked really healthy. The only downside, is that I can't wear black clothing anymore, it just looks really wrong with my new colouring.

L'Oreal Casting Creme Gloss surpassed my expectations, and I can't wait to try its many other shades of brown.

This was so easy to mix and apply, the non drip creme did exactly that, which ment I could target those greys a lot easier. It did leave it on a bit longer then recommended, and to my surprise I actually managed to get all my hair done with the one application as my hair is so long, a bonus for me as it is a bit expensive. It washed out quite well and it did lather better then some other products. It did not have that chemical after smell afterwards and I loved the conditioner so much. Once my was dry, it was so shiny and I had no visible greys, Bonus!! Overall I was happy with the product but the price was still a bit expensive. I have washed my hair twice more since and the color still holds well. I do like how my ends seem to be in better condition. I look forward to seeing how long the depth of the color lasts.

Was super excited when I came home to this product was so in need of new colour and decided that night to apply.

I was first surprised with the shape of the bottle. Instructions were easy to follow and the using the box as a stand was rather helpful as it stopped the solution going over my counter well I had hoped it would.

The solution itself is rather runny in fact that's the one negative I have of this product. If I held the applicator in slightly the wrong angle it ran every where down my face and in my sink which was a concern for me as we are renting and have to be super careful luckily was easy to clean off. There was plenty of product this the packet for me but I do have short hair so had to get rid of the rest. My hubby wasn't keen on trying it with me.

After leaving the colour on for the required it I was excited to rinse off and see the results. I was very impressed there was no patching, it covered my grey hair and I LOVED the colour. Infact its my favorite one I have tried in a long long time. I washed my hair and its still looking good which I was worried about as its only a semi-permanent colour. Would love it to become a colour in there permanent range.
