My Experience with L’Oreal Paris Total Repair 5 Repairing Shampoo:
The entire product packaging and it color, reminds me of Aishwarya Rai in bold red lips. :).
Packaging: This product comes in a plastic bottle that is white in color. The cap is a flip cap and is bright red in color. The important details printed on the bottle are also highlighted in red. On the whole, red and white makes an attractive combination.
Color, Consistency and Fragrance: The shampoo is white in color; I guess I can call it pure white.
The shampoo is midway in its consistency, neither thin nor thick. The right amount of liquid easy enough for handling. And recalling the fragrance, I find it pretty strong to my nose, yet the fragrance is good. The smell of the shampoo stays on for some more time even after rinsing it off.
The white soapy shampoo liquid is creamy and soft that resembles the perfect hair wash product. The smoothness of the product is perfect for spreading around the scalp and washing the hair.
How it works: I never use shampoo directly as it is. I drop some shampoo into my bathing mug and add some water to it. I shake the mug well so that the shampoo dissolves well and then I use this diluted shampoo for washing my hair. Well, this L’Oreal Paris shampoo lathers very well and removes off all the oil in just one wash. No second wash is needed. It leaves the scalp and hair clean and fresh. It is easy to remove any hair pack (if at all applied before bath) with this shampoo. Makes the hair smooth and shiny. I have observed it. A good shampoo to try out.
