L'Oreal Paris Casting Creme Gloss Review

So my Trial product arrived and as i was deeply anticipating it and well over due for a colour i dived straight in.

First of all I noticed the Gloves in the box were super small. I have small hands and getting them on was a squeeze... Luckily I had spare gloves on hand for an occasion such as this.

Secondly I noticed it had the usual three bottles in the box.. developer, colour and the conditioner... The conditioner was of generous size and at the end i found i only needed about half of it for my whole hair (gave it a deep condition) I thought at first that perhaps the colour mixture wouldn't be enough, even for my shoulder length hair, but after about halfway in I discovered that I had plenty, and would have had some leftover.

Then the colour develops. The smell was what you expect of a dye, however it didn't have the nasty fumes from an ammonia based product due to it having none in it.

Developing took all of 20 mins which i found super fast and was very happy with how quick the entire process was...

Washing out was the bit I was worried about, due to us having a brand new shower and most packet dyes take 10 minutes or more to wash the colour out entirely I was worried I would get it all over the walls etc... But the colour was completely washed out in a minute or two! I was stunned. And there was no product anywhere in the new shower (mum would kill me he he)

No colour squeezed out while towel drying my hair.

All in all It was a breezy, clean, and stress-free situation. And I am loving the colour already (Caramel) Which showed up and blended nicely over my old blonde foils and brown re-growth, and gave me a nice natural looking colour!

Will definitely be using this product again

i was picked to trial the casting creme hair dye, so i chose black cherry. i usually have bright red hair, so its a little bit of a change. first off, i loved the gloves! but i have really big hands so they were pretty tight, and i ripped them a little. it was easy to apply, had a little bit left over. After 20 mins i washed it out, and used the conditioner. And still have enough left to use some next wash. very dark than im use to, but feels lovely and looks nice for freshly dyed hair. Thumbs up.

Thank you so much for this opportunity! I used it the night that it arrived in the mail. It was such an easy hair dye to use and was such an even colour. I've had bad experiences in the past with hair colour but this one has been the best ever! My hair was light brown to start so I chose the shade iced chocolate and it made it go a little darker but looks really natural! Super impressed with the results!!

A few disappointing points but mostly highly happy with the over all product! Firstly the gloves! I have tiny hands and these gloves were highly snug and so hard to get on! I feel highly sorry for people whos hands arent blessed to be tiny like mine! Getting them off was also quite hard and I found myself getting the mixture on my fingers taking them off. Im guessing, because of the intensly quicker developing time (of only 20mins compared to the norm of 35mins) the formula was stronger and that would be why it got quite hot on my scalp and took awhile for my scalp to calm down! Washing out was a breeze, and it didnt take too long for the water to run clear. I am highly impressed with the conditioning jelly, my hair is soft and it smells soo good! Finally, I started off with bleached dark blonde and caramel hair and the colour I chose to go to was chocolate brown. The cover is full, the colour is bright and it feels like a million bucks! Smells just like the salon! Well done guys!

I was lucky enough get picked to try this :) The gloves were a bit tight for fat hands lol they ripped but otherwise it was good I liked the fact you didn't need scissors to snip the top of the bottle and the conditioner had screw top lid normally its a stupid sachet hard to rip open without scissors, So all in all it was get, Covered my grey in time for christmas and the holidays, Thank you Beauty Review and I hope you all have a Merry Christmas :)

I actually thought this was one of the best hairdyes I've ever used. Product smelt amazing and not chemically like a lot of other dyes. It covered all my hair really well and I sometimes require 2 boxes, not with this one I got the whole lot in one go. Only problem I had was the gloves they were quite small compared to other brands, I even ripped one and had to apply one handed :/. Worked out well tho. Afterwards colour seems to be holding nicely hair was a little bit dry but the extra conditioner really helps. Overall great product.

I haven't used a semi-permanent hair colour in almost a decade. So when I got to trial this product, I decided to get a different colour from my normal dark brown and went with the Black Cherry shade.

The product was very easy to use - it didn't drip at all and the applicator was an easy shape to hold and use. The gloves are very small, which is great for my small hands - but they were very hard to get off (I ended up ripping them).

The best part about this product is the smell - no ammonia and smelled almost fruity. The conditioner provided also smells lovely, is very hydrating, and makes my hair feel very smooth afterwards.

The colour was quite subtle - it still looked dark brown/black and only looked red in the sunlight (which is great over summer). The dye covered my greys and gave my hair a bit of life, shine, and gloss. The colour however didn't really last for 28 washes for me - turning into more of a brown/auburn colour, rather than cherry red, after about 15 washes.

I would recommend this product and shade to people with dark hair who are not after a dramatic change, just a bit of colour and oomph.

For the purpose of this review I selected a colour I wouldn't ordinarily use, but a colour that I liked and knew would suit me - Mahoganny (550). I must say I am very pleased with my shade selection. It is such a lovely dark reddish brown colour and very true to the colour on the box. The colour took to my hair really well(over the last of my old ), nice even colour coverage. It was easy enough to apply by myself which is a must for me. The dye smells pleasant- no stinky chemical smell. What amazed me most was I had leftover dye!!!! My hair is almost mid back length. For years I have needed two boxes of hair dye. I was so happy I didn't have to buy a second pack of dye.

This is great! Covered all the grey. I have never used a hair colour that you have to wet your hair first. But this really seemed to help the coverage. It come out with all over coverage and a deep rich colour!

My hair is naturally dark blonde, and I got this to trial in the shade Dark Blonde to enhance my hair's colouring and to keep it looking natural.

The instructions were easy to follow, the pack included gloves, developer, colour tube and some conditioner. It was easy to mix together, and applying it was easy as it was quite a thick liquid, and covered all my medium length hair. The smell wasn't overpowering as it does not contain ammonia. I left it in for about 25 minutes to develop, then washed it out. The pack came with some delicious smelling conditioner, which was used after rinsing my hair. Once my hair was dryed off, my hair is super soft and glossy. My hair has a lovely intensity and sheen to it that it was previously lacking. And I love how it has taken some of the frizziness away. I would definitely recommend using this product again!
