Philip Kingsley Elasticizer Extreme - pics, swatch, review


Hello, Beautiful!

I recently reviewed the Philip Kingsley Preen Cream - which I'm still really liking to use. I have another product I tried out from his line, the Elasticizer Extreme. This product was really outstanding too; I only wish I had a larger size (they sell this in different sizes). I am absolutely loving the Philip Kingsley line of hair care! Check out my full review below after the pics!

Philip Kingsley Elasticizer Extreme Info & Review:
Cost/Availability: $45.00 (150 ml size), $87.00 (500 ml size), and there is also currently a 20 ml size for $7.00 (I guess this is a try-it out size). The size I have, 75ml, isn't available on the website at the time I wrote this post. Available on the Philip Kingsley website.
My Rating: 5 out of 5 Kisses!

This pre-shampoo treatment is targeted at a very specific hair type: extremely dry, porous and very thirsty hair! This product is ideal for hair that is exceptionally processed and damaged as it will provide instant replenishment, hydration and nourishment.

Higher levels of castor oil and olive oil lock in moisture for bounce and shine. Higher levels of silicones give greater smoothness and shine. Higher levels of hydrolysed elastin give greater strength and elasticity, and higher levels of glycerine and glycol give greater moisture retention.

To use this you'll want to get in your shower, or just get your hair wet, and work it into your hair in sections. If you have fine hair, like I do, avoid your roots (just apply from mid length to ends). Then leave it in for at least 10 minutes but up to 20 minutes. You can even put a shower cap on over top so you can get the rest of your shower done. I keep a hair tie in the shower and just put my hair up in my bun since I don't own a shower cap. When the time is up just rinse it out really well and follow up with shampoo and conditioner.

Since this is a hair treatment you don't need to do this everyday, but you'll want to use it regularly for best hair health. I use this once a week right now, but once I purchase a larger size I'll use this two to three times a week because it's amazing!

I could feel an immediate difference in my hair after using this, even while still in the shower. My hair is extremely dry - it has been ever since I went back to brown after having the blue highlights in my hair that seems like forever ago! My hair is so super damaged and let me tell you, this stuff is amazing! It does everything it says; my hair felt so healthy after using this, silky, smooth and had more bounce too.

This is an amazing product for hydration, nourishment and just healthier, better looking hair. For sure this is a product recommendation!

Also keep in mind they offer a regular Elasticizer; the only difference is the Extreme Elasticizer has higher levels of all the ingredients. Both have glowing reviews on his website, so you can't go wrong!
