For a girl that colours her hair once a month, uses a flat iron and blow dryer daily, I’m always on the hunt for products that will help prolong the life of my colour and protect it against heat damage. The new ESSENSITY by Schwarzkopf Professional has been re-launched and reformulated to deliver the perfect combination in hair care with outstanding performance powered by all natural ingredients. It features fair-trade Marula oil that effectively replaces the loss of lipids from the hair and seals in the cuticles for anti-fade protection and maximum colour reflection. It also helps to prolong the life of your colour treated hair in between salon visits and keeps hair feeling smooth and soft longer. The collection has 8 new colour care products that deliver naturally beautiful hair using only natural plant-based oils that are free of any ammonia, silicones, parabens, mineral oils and artificial fragrances. ESSENSITY Color & Moisture is designed for normal to dry, colour treated hair and provides deep moisturization thanks to its Marula oil, green tea and organic aloe vera ingredients.
ESSENSITY Color & Moisture Shampoo helps to seal the cuticles leaving behind hydrated, soft and more manageable hair. It has a clear, almost runny consistency to it that lathers well, with only the smallest amount of product, and washes clean without leaving hair weighted down. It has a rich spa like scent to it with just the hint of aloe and green tea that leaves hair smelling fresh and awake. It helped cleanse my hair of any residue and product buildup, detangle my hair for easy brushing and styling and also added softness back into my strands, the same results I get after freshly coloured hair. My hair was left feeling hydrated, moisturized and ultra-shiny. It retails for $16.25 for 250ml.
ESSENSITY Color & Moisture Conditioner is rapidly absorbed by the cuticles to help smooth hair without weighting it down. It features an ivory, rich and creamy, highly moisturizing formula that’s lightweight, non-greasy and doesn’t weigh the hair down. It too washes clean and leaves my ends silky smooth, incredibly soft to the touch with extra volume and texture to the hair. Hair is noticeably shiner, more healthier looking with a spa like scent that seems to last throughout the day. It retails for $17.25 for 200ml.
ESSENSITY Color & Moisture Intense Mask instantly adds moisture to dry hair and restores softness and smoothness to rough, brittle and untameable hair. It has a medium weight creamy texture that’s applied to damp hair and left on for 5 to 10 minutes. It applies and spreads evenly and easily and the hair instantly soaks up the mask for extra hydration. It has a non-sticky, non- greasy formula that leaves hair smoother, shinier, stronger. My hair is full of life, looks and feels healthier with less frizz and is more manageable. I’ve been using it a few times a week and it never makes my hair feel weighed down or heavy. It retails for $24.75 for 200ml.
ESSENSITY Color & Moisture Spray Conditioner is a leave-in treatment that coats each strand without weighing the hair down with its protective shield that fights against harmful influences and prevents colour fading. It features a clear formula that sprays evenly onto the hair after towel drying and before styling. Its lightweight texture never weighs the hair down or makes it feel greasy and I feel good knowing its not only protecting my hair from the elements, but my heat tools too. It retails for $17.75 for 200ml.
ESSENSITY Color & Moisture 4 piece collection makes your hair feel like you’ve just come home from the salon/spa with its fresh scent of green tea and aloe each and every morning. It adds a little extra shine to the hair, protects it from heat damage and prolongs the life of your colour all while making it more manageable, softer and smoother; what more could you ask for? ESSENSITY Color & Moisture will be available at Schwarzkopf Professional partner salons starting this month.
