As per research conducted by an independent research agency, 96% girls desire shiny hair. But their common complaint is that their hair often turns dull with time. Sunsilk realizes that a young Indian girl’s hair needs to keep pace with her exciting and demanding life to enhance her naturally vibrant and attractive persona. It strongly, believes that every girl deserves to have healthy, shiny hair that allows her to go through an eventful, long and demanding day, looking her best. But daily stresses like harsh sunlight and excessive pollution may rob the hair of essential shine and moisture, and leave it dull and limp. Comprehending this situation, Sunsilk put its expert team on the job and designed a perfect solution in the form of ‘Sunsilk Radiant Shine’, an innovative product, which gives long lasting hair shine. So get ready to flaunt your shiny tresses and stand out with confidence as the new Sunsilk Radiant Shine adds a radiant shimmer to your hair.

How does it work?

Sunsilk Radiant Shine has ultra light fusion of oils from ingredients famed for their beneficial effects on hair – Argon, Jojoba, Camellia, Almond and Olive. The dual effects of oiling and washing to a large degree soften the hair texture not just from the outside, but actually aim to ensure that the hair receives its share of nourishment at periodic intervals. The light oils permeate upto three layers deep and give hair a natural sheen that stays as the day progresses. Sunsilk Radiant Shine shampoo and conditioner work in combination to produce an enduring visibly glossy look that stays on and on!

Sunsilk Radiant Shine has been created by the in-house expert team in association with the internationally renowned shine expert for hair, Jamal Hammadi; who is also known for his natural approach towards achieving healthy and long lasting shiny hair. Jamal emphasizes on the common complaint by girls, where shiny hair often turns dull within time.


Jamal says “This happens because the nourishment just stays on the surface and evaporates very easily due to harsh sunlight and excessive pollution; stripping the hair of its radiant glow. When it comes to long lasting shine, I strongly recommend the use of ‘Sunsilk Radiant Shine’ shampoo and conditioner. It is enriched with ultra light fusion of 5 natural oils. It provides nourishment to the hair and radiant shine. Use the shampoo along with the conditioner to get long lasting visibly glossy hair that stays on and on!

On this highly innovative creation, Jamal continues “It is a feeling of pride and honor to be a part of the Sunsilk family, as one of Co-Creators. Sunsilk Radiant Shine is definitely the new best friend that every young girl must have and get ready to flaunt that beautiful shiny mane all day long”

So girls, shine your way with self-confidence and assurance of Sunsilk Radiant Shine!

My Opinion:- Dove has always been my fave brand for shampoos & conditioners. I simply love the trademark Dove fragrance which is very feminine according to me. A week before Diwali I recieved an awesome gift from Indiblogger, it was the Dove Nourishing Oil Care Range packed in a plastic pouch with small golden thermocol balls thrown it to resemble the Vita Oil droplets. I was happy to recieve this and immediately started using it as my previous shampoo had nearly finished off.

The packaging is basic nothing special, a sturdy white plastic bottle which is tall and comes with a dull golden flip top lid. The lid clicks shut tightly but at first I was a little skeptical if it is safe for travelling as I am a frequent traveller. The consistency is like lotion not very thick but not watery as well. The shampoo is offwhite loaded with golden shimmer like particles which makes it extremely appealing to the eyes. Coming to the fragrance it has this typical Dove fragrance which I have mentioned earlier.

I have oily scalp which turns normal in the harsh winters with dry ends which are dry round the year. So I thought this shampoo would turn my scalp more oily and do justice to my dry ends, but I was wrong. I always dilute my shampoo with a little water and use it on my wet hair. I used this shampoo alone also to check if its drying but the outcome was good enough and hence I started using it regularly and sometimes daily too. This shampoo did not make my scalp oilier but took good care of my dry ends. Its really very nourishing and the goodness of Vita Oils can be seen on my hair with regular use. Its a mild shampoo appropriate for damaged hair also, it neither irritates my scalp nor does it make it itchy. Its gentle on my scalp and hair and also it cleans my hair very well.

My hair has now become somewhat softer after around 2 months regular use and I still have some shampoo left for a few more uses. This proves that a little goes a long way as this shampoo lathers well. My hair is shiny and softer and less frizzy, also this has made my hair a little manageable than before. The downside of this shampoo is silicon which is said to build up residue with longer periods of expos. And another thing I am not comfortable is the flip top packaging as I have a hunch it might ruin your clothes while travelling so I make it a point to carry it separately inside a small plastic pouch :P See what not I do to keep it by my side as I am loving it.

Pros:-
* Cleans my scalp/hair well
* Make my hair soft, manageable & less frizzy
* Sweet feminine fragrance
* Its gentle on my hair/scalp
* Doesn't irritate or make my scalp itchy
* Affordable and easily available

Cons:-
* Contains SLES, Carbomer & Silicon but most shampoos do as well
* I am a little apprensive about the flip top packaging

I rate this Dove Nourishing Oil Care Shampoo 4.25 out of 5. Right now I am loving this shampoo quite a lot. And I will keep coming back to it. Though I plan not to use it continuously. Its a must try shampoo for all babes with dry & rough hair. Thank you all for reading this post and please do leave behind your lovely comments. Have a great day :)

Ingredients:-

My Opinion:- I love LOreal products and when I saw Loreal Conditioner with their Total Repair 5 shampoo free, I bought it immediately. And now that I have nearly finished it I am reviewing it today. If in one sentence I have to give my opinion then I would say its a ok kind of product, nothing special.

The packaging it white and red which I think is attractive enough. Its a sturdy plastic bottle with a red flip open lid, with a gold border. The packaging makes it perfect for travellling, no chance of leakage or spillage. The fragrance is mild floral, quite pleasant but nothing special.

A single blob is good enough for my shoulder length hair. I always dilute my shampoo with a little warm water just before using it on my hair. But I first wet my hair and then use the diluted shampoo. This shampoo lathers well and cleans well just in a single wash. I prefer a conditioner after each wash so I follow up with the Total Repair 5 Conditioner.

My hair isnt damaged but has become dull and is always frizzy, I always need a good serum to control my friziness. My ends are dry but nothing a good conditiner & serum cant fix. I dont experience hair fall and roughness and also I dont have splt ends. This shampoo's claim of treating dulness has worked for my hair but my ends remained dry.

I dont really experience the other 3 problems of hair fall, split ends and roughness. But I dont think this shampoo will repair split ends since it noting for my dry ends. This shampoo made the overall condition of my hair much better by giving it shine and softness. It didnt dry out my scalp or roots. Some shampoos give me itching on my scalp but this one didn't irritate my scalp.

Pros:-
* The dullness of my hair is gone
* Hair looks shinier after shampooing
* Gives softness to my hair
* I like travel friendly packaging since I am always on the go
* Fragrance is mild floral and stays on for long

* No itching or irritation experienced while using this shampoo.

Cons:-
* Doesnt control my frizz
* The innovative ceramide cement technology didnt do any magic for me

I rate this Total Repair 5 Shampoo 3.75 out of 5 (am giving it benefit of doubt since I dont have all the 5 mentioned hair problems to test its full potency). Overall its an average shampoo, nothing very good or nothing bad as well. And I dont think I will ever purchase it. But the ones with dull and damaged hair can give it a try since its quite moisturising.
