Garnier Sleek & Shine Intensely Smooth Leave-in Conditioner is a big green bottle of creamy leave in conditioner. This was my holy grail back when I wasn’t following CG friendly routine.

In India, getting a pocket-friendly leave-in conditioner isn’t easy, unless you use a watered-down version by mixing water with conditioners like Loreal Smooth intense conditioner or Matrix Biolage Hydrasource conditioner. So this bottle, usually priced at INR 800- 1000 was fantastic. It is also one of the more easily available products you can find on Amazon, which is probably why so many girls still ask me about this product.

I may not use this anymore, but this review is based on when I was a regular user.

Let’s get to the full review below.

After Using Garnier Sleek & Shine Intensely Smooth Leave in Conditioner

Cons:

  1. The frizz reduction is probably due to the amodimethicone which is a silicone & not allowed in a CG routine.
  2. This silicone will cause buildup and in time make your curls limp & heavy unless you use a sulphate shampoo.
  3. It can get heavy for curl patterns like 3A or wavy textures (2A,2B,2C)

How To Use:

Read this post to learn two ways you can apply this for your curls or watch and old video I made with the Garnier Sleek & Shine Intensely Smooth Leave in Conditioner.

This is how I apply my conditioner inside the shower and the leave in conditioner (filmed) outside it for soft, well moisturised curls. Tag someone who has curly hair! Step 1: Part your hair into sections. Step 2: Take a good moisturising leave in conditioner and spread from mid length to the ends. Step 3: Finger detangle gently to avoid breakage. Step 4: Comb from the bottom of your hair going up first with a wide toothed comb and then a narrower comb. Step 5: Take a Tshirt and scrunch up your hair for 1-2 minutes. Step 6: Air dry and avoid touching your hair for frizz free curls! Used: #garnierfructis sleek and shine intensely smooth leave in conditioner.

Will I Buy This Again:

No, I’m happier with a CG friendly routine now. I currently use either or a mix of these products.

Is Garnier OK for curly hair?

We don't recommend these Garnier hair products, including the shampoo and conditioner, for curly girls because of several ingredients that often lead to dry hair and a sensitive scalp with many women that have type 3 or type 4 hair strands. What is this?

GARNIER FRUCTIS SLEEK & SHINE CONDITIONER with fairly & sustainably sourced Argan Oil from Morocco soaks into frizzy, dry hair to smooth each strand. Long lasting frizz control even in 97% humidity*.

Is Garnier Fructis conditioner good for your hair?

Garnier Fructis Is Bad For Your Hair Because It contains a long list of harsh chemicals like SLS, silicones, added fragrance, phthalates, phenoxyethanol, and others. These ingredients often irritate the scalp and are harsh on your hair health.
