treatments in the past, particularly, the Readers' Choice Award-winningDeep Conditioning Mask.
What’s new about it, you ask?
After using this proteinaceous mask for six weeks, the shine is returning to my hair and I can style it easily — with or without heat.
This iteration features two separate chambers, one containing a reparative formula, the other containing a hydrating formula.
I’ve been using this mask around once per week for six weeks now.
“It helps hair bind moisture, which helps repair it,” cosmetic chemistRon Robinsonsays.
Plus, an ingredient you already know and love:Biotin.
“Biotin may help to nourish and repair the hair,” Robinson adds.
As far as the right chamber’s moisturizing effect goes, I have a plethora of ingredients to thank.
“Sodium PCA andglycerinwork as humectants to draw in hydration,” Robinson explains.
“Rice bran oil and sweet almond oil work as emollients; rice bran water hydrates and conditions.
Clearly, this mask has a lot to boast about.
But what’s up with the packaging?
Moreso, the packaging seems to illustrate the duality of the mask’s abilities.
