Treseme Keratin Smooth Serum Review


Oh wow, look at me! I'm back from my blog hiatus which was totally unplanned and sort of unnecessary but nice to have at the same time. It's just that I had so many side projects that I had to put this whole thing on the back burner but now I have the focus to get started again. I really haven't gotten anything new except for hair products and one of hem happened to be the TRESemme Keratin Smooth Serum. Since I have been washing my hair every other day to preserve the health of my hair I notice that after I release my shower bun my ends are sort of frizzy looking. Since then I have been looking for a hair oil of some sort to tame the frizz without giving me greasy looking hair and wouldn't interact badly with my dry shampoo at the same time. 


I had passed over this product for awhile and almost passed over it again due to the Allure stamp of approval because I feel I normally get sucked into hype products that just don't work for me but at $4.99 at Target I thought it wouldn't hurt to try this. I got to try this out the next day as luck would have it and honestly I didn't expect to like it but was pleasantly surprised that I did. I had this giant poof of dry ends after my shower and greasy roots to boot and honestly don't know why I didn't just wash it and be done with my first world pain.

 I stuck it out and dry shampooed my roots then prayed I wouldn't get any funky mix of serum/powder film at the ends of my hair. My hair almost instantly became tamed and like I just had freshly washed and dried hair. It felt lightweight and had the signature TRESemme scent going on. All TRESemme products have that scent to it but I really don't know what to describe the smell as. Just open up a bottle and see what I mean. My hair felt very smooth and shiny and just overall gave a nice healthy glow. 


I dispense two pumps, rub it between my palms, and then smooth it over the ends of my hair and add more if I need it. I have thin hair that is very straight but a lot of it so if you have thicker hair or thinner hair do however many pumps it takes to make your hair happy. Overall I was super pleased that my initial gut feeling was wrong. This has to be one of my new favorite products in my low maintenance morning routine. I will note that I didn't like using it on my wet/damp hair and prefer it on my second day ends. I feel it made my hair look a bit on the greasy because it was hard to get it absorbed into my wet hair without it looking stringy. But yes, I will be using this every time my hair needs a pick me up at the ends and if nothing changes I would definitely repurchase it because it is not only one of the best budget smoothing serums I have found but on of the best hair serums period and it really does deserve the Best of Beauty title.

Tresemme Platinum Strength Deep Conditioner Treatment

I love this stuff so much I always keep a backup on hand. 

I had been looking for a great deep conditioner for the longest time ever and in my quest heard about the Tresemme Platinum Strength line and decided to give it a try. If you have ever dyed your hair you know about that tiny "what the hell am I going to do with this tiny" conditioner that comes with it and works like no other to make your hair super soft and silky. I hoard them and honestly its the only reason I still dye my hair other than to refresh the discolored ends. It seems to make my hair so soft and luxurious and no other conditioners seem to be able to stand up to it until this came a long into my life.

Before this, I was in the darkness and now I see the light, it is really that amazing. I believe it may have a cult following someday because I know other bloggers have raved about this magic liquid. I really feel it is the best I have found and works instantly to make my damaged hair super soft and manageable. I also feel when I Co-Wash my hair with it it doesn't leave an icky residue but I do not apply anywhere near my roots when I do because my scalp can get oily and gross any one with drier hair can probably get away with it but I will not make that attempt ever.

I usually don't even repurchase most conditioners because I like to switch things up a bit by the time I'm done but with this I am already on my second bottle. Yes, it is good enough for a repurchase from me. So if you are ever in that hair care aisle of the drugstore go ahead and pick this up for a try. I think it does deliver the deep conditioning treatment it promises and we all know it's hard to find products that actually deliver as promised

So I hope you enjoyed my review of this particular deep conditioner because I really enjoy using it for myself. I really am obsessed because it delivers more than I ever thought it would at a fair price of about $4 to $5. I am not using the whole line and I can see results so it isnt really necessary to purchase all items to see results. Thanks for dropping in!
