Product Review - Dove Nourishing Oil Care Conditioner


Hi Everyone,

I recently switched up my haircare routine a little bit when I reached the end of my Tresemme Split Remedy Intense Repair Mask, a faithful friend of mine for sometime now. Instead I purchased this Dove Nourishing Oil Care Express Treatment Conditioner which was on offer in Superdrug for just £1.97 (because who doesn't love a bargain?!).

My hair has been through a lot in years gone by (bleaching, highlights, even a perm!) and I am trying to be kind to it at the moment, so have invested in lots of 'hair-friendly' products: from heat protection sprays to special hairbrushes and even a new hairdryer. I am particularly drawn to products containing Argan or Moroccan oil for its nourishing qualities, and so this Dove conditioner immediately stood out for me. It contains 'weightless nutri-oils' as well as Argan Oil, and claims to have 3x the nourishing power of a conditioner.

The texture of this conditioner is a thick cream with stripes of white frizz treatment and yellowy conditioner running through it. I really like the yellow and white stripes, I think it makes the product look very visually appealing, and you don't need to use much per application. I have been mainly applying this product to just the ends of my hair rather than all over to avoid any residue that might make my hair greasy. 

After trialing this product for 1 week it has left my hair noticeably softer to the touch and more shiny than before, so I'm a happy lady! I feel my hair was desperate for a change to my usual routine, and this product was so reasonably priced that I would be happy to recommend it to anyone looking for a break from their usual conditioner. 

One thing I really like about this product is that it is not a hair mask, although it acts like one, and therefore you can use it every day like a normal conditioner rather than limiting the use to once a week. This is a big plus for me as it means I can get that super-soft feeling I usually get from a hair mask every time I wash my hair! In summary, this Nourishing Oil Care Conditioner is a high street brand product that doesn't claim to do anything spectacular; it promises nourished, soft hair, which for me is exactly what it's delivered.

Have you tried this Dove conditioner? Let me know your thoughts!

  3. I have dyed ombre hair so, in the summer especially, it can get a little dry on the ends - I will definitely be trying this out! Thanks :)
