L'Oréal Wrinkle Expert Re-Densifying Anti-Wrinkle Day Cream 55+ (50ml)

L'Oreal cosmetics are a bit pricey, but I bought this one heavily discounted. Why opted for this variety? Honestly, because of the discount. This is a great day moisturiser. Unlike other L'Oreal creams, it doesn't have colouring in it, something that I appreciate. It absorbs well and leaves my skin supple and fresh, and I don't get any irritation or itchiness after application. Personally, I don't belief the claims of any brand or cream that have not been tested clinically, so I cannot comment on whether the calcium added to this cream is making my face less wrinkled because, at face value (pun intended), looks as wrinkled as before. Perhaps this is more noticeable by looking through a microscope or over a long period of time? I would say, based on my own experience, that this cream is goo for everyone who is over 35. I don't particularly like the scent, but it isn't bad either.  Yet, I like the cream and I would buy it again.

L'Oreal Elvive Moisturising & Plumping Hyaluron Plump Moisture Mask, 300ml

I was lured by the discounted priced and the hyaluronic acid in it. I know this product is widely used in face creams and serums and the results are noticeable skin wise. I don't exactly how this is achieved on the hair as hair is follicle not skin, though.
 
I don't get what the packaging means by "plumping". Like volumising? Thickening? My hair was a volumised after using it as it was before. My hair is wavy and thick, so perhaps people with fine sparse hair might have a different experience and results.

I don't particularly like the scent, the jelly like texture, the colouring added to it, or the fact that I had to use a lot of product to untangle my long hair and it does not untangle as well as other masks from other brand that I use. It didn't feel it was as  nourishing either, not even compared to other varieties from the same brand and price range.
 
On the other hand, my hair looked very shiny and healthy looking after use, and the price tag is really good.
 
Not my fav hair mask, but a good one when I'm on a budget.

L'Oréal Elvive Dream Lengths Hair Mask, 300 ml

I've used this mask for the first time recently lured by the sale price, by the fact that I usually love L'Oreal hair products, and because I had never tried this before. 

 

This mask smells really nice. It 's a feminine scent, so not as gender neutral as other L'Oreal hair masks scents I've experienced. 

 

Dream Lengths doesn't de-tangle my hair as well as other L'Oreal masks, isn't as nourishing and, most disappointingly, it leaves me with a freezy head if I let my hair dry au naturel. Definitely, not suitable to my wavy tinted thick long hair, which is what the mask is supposed to be designed for. I'll stick to the other masks in the same price range because they do a better job on my hair and cost me the same.
