Tried and True: Garnier Fructis Style Sleek & Shine Blow Dry Perfection Brushing Smoothing Kit

Hello Everyone!

We had a lot of snow fall on Saturday, so my husband was at work most of the day.  I like to play with makeup and beauty products while my husband is at work.  I decided to play with the Garnier Fructis Style SLEEK & SHINE Blow Dry Perfection Brushing Smoothing Kit. Now that is a mouthful!  I purchased this smoothing kit at my local Dollarama for $3.

 

 

The box contained a pair of disposable gloves, instructions, as well as the 20-min Snooth-It Serum (tube 1) and the Heat-Activated Perfect-It Cream (tube 2).

 

 
The instructions start off by telling you to shampoo your hair as you normally would.  DO NOT condition your hair and then towel dry.  Here's a shot of me with my shampoo hairdo!

Then the instructions tell us to open the 20-min Smooth-It Serum (tube 1) but be EXTREMELY careful not to spill it as it is very liquid-y.  It is a runny gel that smells like perm solution - it stinks!
 

 
It then says to apply the serum to your hair focusing on the mid-lengths and ends of hair.  This is what your hair looks like after you've applied the serum. Leave the serum on your hair for 20 minutes - 30 minutes if your hair is resistant, like mine. Then, you rinse it out and towel dry your hair again. 

 

Once you've towel dried your hair, the instructions tell you to apply enough of the Heat-Activated Perfect-It Cream (tube 2) to lightly coat the hair from root to tip.

 

 

 My hair felt heavy and slimy, greasy.  I was skeptical as you can see from the look on my face.

 

 

Once the Perfect-It Cream is evenly distributed through your hair, you must blow your hair dry.

 

 

This is the final result.  My hair was smooth and free of frizz.  However, the top of my head was super greasy looking.  The Perfect-It Cream must have been concentrated in this area, as it feels sticky and tacky. I do like the end result, except for the top of my hair.

 

I would most definitely try this again, and perhaps not put so much of the Perfect-It Cream on the top of my head.  It deserves a second chance.
