Ottenochny Estel balm appeared in my hands for the first time. Perhaps, it is worth specifying that it in principle the first ottenochny means which I use. All the matter is that in a blonda I always preferred wheaten shades, and as you understand, the yellowness problem on hair at me did not arise. But here the spring 2015 came, and I wanted to become very lighter. I did not manage to rejoice on the superlight hair color as the yellow shade began to be shown. The seller of shop of cosmetics advised me to use ottenochny Estel balm, namely a shade 1.16, the Polar color. Having read on the packing face that this means not only gives a shade to hair, but also provides gloss, protection for the clarified hair and the conditioning effect, I decided to try. Well, let's understand together, use of such means is how justified.
Packing and producer
By tradition we will begin with packing. Estelle balm is produced in a small bottle of saturated blue color of 150 ml. The small bottle is actually not remarkable, except the system of opening closing. From a cap the small nose through which actually and it is possible to receive means moves forward. It is rather convenient for balm dispensing and also during the work with wet hands. An expiration date at means big – 2 years. After opening it is possible to store no more than 12 months. Though this moment, it is necessary to tell, to me it is a little not clear. Balm opens easily and closed, it is not sealed in any way. As I will be able to define that I its the first open, not clearly.
Makes the Estel brand the Russian company "YUNIKOSMETIK". There is in the market of cosmetics for hair it rather recently, only 14 years. The main products of the company are means for coloring of hair. Also other goods on care of hair are made under this brand. The brand is positioned as professional cosmetics for hair.
Smell and texture
The aroma balm exhales very peculiar. Not that unpleasant, it is simple when you smell this means, somehow at once it becomes clear that it is intended for hair-dyeing. Perfumery composition not sharp, but after all rather notable both in packing, and after drawing on hair. Whatever aroma your shampoo had, after this balm hair will smell only of it.Means rather dense, it is a texture rather more suitable for a mask, than for balm. Color is violet. When drawing on hair color begins to darken. But the producer assures us that it will not affect a final shade of hair in any way. However, so it also is. No fioletovost after washing off of means is observed. From skin balm is washed slightly worse, but too is not criminal. I, for example, process sites of skin on which means, tonic and everything, any traces got.
Drawing and effect
Despite dense consistence, balm is applied on hair very easily and pleasantly. Somehow it is instantly linked to hair. According to the instruction it is necessary to apply means on dry or slightly moist hair. I usually after all use it on the wet, slightly dried hair. As a rule, I am insolent on hair no more than 5 minutes (once kept 10, but did not notice anything special). Because I need to remove only yellowness, but not to paint. I think very few people would like to have such tone, as at the girl on packing with tone 1.16.
Effect of balm use very versatile. As for elimination of yellowness, result contrary to my expectations insignificant. Hair, of course, look, fresher. It is possible to think that they are painted recently. But the yellowness is practically not diminished. Well, at most on percent 10-15 it become less. And it concerns both the first use, and further application. That is even at regular application hair practically do not get rid of a yellow shade.
Do you ask why I continue to use Estel balm? Yes because it is very good as hair balm. The amazing conditioning effect. Hair are smooth, very much shine. Are not confused, comb hair easily at all. Also keep within too easily. Balm is perfectly washed away, without making heavier hair. It is, perhaps, one of the best balms which I tried. Hair after it well just as from beauty shop – well-groomed and healthy by sight. I, frankly speaking, ceased to wait for a long time from it for elimination of yellowness, just I enjoy its looking after properties. Possibly, they are provided with existence in composition of extract of mango. Besides, on packing it is specified that balm has thermoprotective properties that too as it is impossible by the way for a dyed hair.
There is this means an utter nonsense – 16 thousand Belarusian rubles. Besides in a palette there are a lot of shades. If you suddenly want to exchange for a while or to give a little freshness to coloring, I advise you to pay attention to this product.
I put 4 stars for what rather weakly copes with the direct duties (giving of tone). But in general product worthy.
