Hair Product Review: Garnier Fructis Sleek n’ Shine Leave-In Serum

This is one of those drugstore products I’m always recommending, so I figured I should officially review it. Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Leave-In Serum is a great all-in-one product for a good price: it reduces frizz, adds shine, and gives hair a generally polished look. One of the reasons I love it is that it’s great on a multitude of hair types – curly, straight, wavy, Carrot Top… the list goes on.

Only with Garnier, baby.

The only downside: you can very easily overapply. I recommend if your hair isn’t two feet long or something to stick with one pump of the bottle, lather it in your hands, and then stroke it through damp hair, starting about two inches from the root. Then comb it through. Any excess in any area will make your hair look greasy and gross. It doesn’t feel great in your hands, either, sort of like dish soap. But if you’re having frizz problems or just want to pump up an otherwise dull hair color, you can run out to any drugstore and grab this fabulous product.

The verdict: 7 out of 10 – a staple for anybody frizzy; just be careful with it!

Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Leave-In Serum sells at Drugstore.com for $5.29.
