I always feel terribly let down when a cult product doesn't live up to the hype, and Philip Kingsley Elasticizer has been a big let down.
I've ranted about my hair before. It's dry, brittle, over processed, and pretty sad. I'd been meaning to give Elasticizer a go for ages, so when some arrived on my desk I was keen to try it.
Rather than apply like a normal conditioner, you use Elasticizer before you shampoo. You can apply in the shower and leave it on for a few minutes or leave it for 25-30mins covered with a shower cap (which is supplied). Now admittedly I haven't tried the shower cap part, and maybe I should, but I did leave it on for at least 7mins and I really can't see much difference. The results from using my trusty Macadamia Deep Repair Mask are much better.
Maybe I'm just impatient, but I expected a better result. I should try the full shower cap on for 30mins routine, but it's hard enough to schedule a 30mins hair treatment in without being really sure it's going to give me a glossy mane!
Which cult beauty products have you found disappointing?
Did you use the retail product or the product from the actual PK center in NYC or London? World of difference!
ReplyDeleteLOVE PK!
I used the retail products, I was sent them by Philip Kingsley's UK PR. I didn't know there was a difference?!
