The main features of L`Oreal Excellence dye are three levels of protection for your hair. For this, the kit includes a caring balm and serum that protects the hair from chemicals and reagents. The serum is an innovation of the L`Oreal Paris company. It is used immediately before applying the main paint and protects hair from harmful effects. Balm-care, also included in the components, moisturizes and softens.

In addition, the composition of this paint contains pro-keratin, which contributes to the density, shine and silkiness, the Ionen G polymer, which gives long-term durability, saturation and brightness of colors, and ceramides, which give protection and restoration of hair.

Thanks to the texture of the cream, the paint does not run off and is evenly distributed through the hair. This allows for a dense coloration along the entire length and reduces the possibility of eye contact. Also, a special comb attachment has been added to the package, making it easier to paint.

In order to find the right paint color for you, you need to know your skin type. Light pinkish skin with a blue, gray or green tint is of the cold type - ashy shades are suitable for such women. The warm type is skin with a yellowish tint; golden tints are suitable for these women. If your skin has an olive complexion, you should try darker shades, all the way to black.

To find out what color your skin casts, apply something white to your bare face while standing by a window for natural light. If your skin appears yellowish, you have a warm type; if bluish, you are cold. Skin tone can change with age.

Also, eye color plays an important role in choosing the right palette. Owners of black eyes are recommended very dark and black tones, but green-eyed girls are more suitable for warm, sunny shades of red, gold or copper; they should refuse ash and black tones.Lilac eyes go well with the silvery-ash color and the color of the raven wing. Brown-eyed girls will look great with brownish or reddish hair (chocolate, chestnut, copper). Hazelnut pupils are compatible with reddish and brown colors.

Lighter tones are suitable for gray-eyed beauties with warm skin, and dark ones with cold ones. Cold-eyed blue-eyed ladies are simply irresistible when paired with blond or dazzling black, while warm-eyed ladies with blue or blue eyes look good with reddish hair. It is better not to combine strongly light eyes with saturated shades - the look will become faded, it will lose its depth.

In addition, dark tones can emphasize age, while light ones, on the contrary, refresh the image. The variety of the L`Oreal Excellence palette will help you make a choice that is perfect for your lifestyle and lifestyle. You can also experiment a bit to find your stunning look.

Most of the reviews about L`Oreal Excellence paint are positive. Women note the uniformity of coloring. But almost all indicate that the tone is darker than the one stated on the package. According to the reviews, the hair is really soft and silky, the paint does not dry it out and does not give an oily effect. Resilience is individual for each individual woman. For some, the color remains bright and saturated even after one and a half to two months, while for others it is washed off after a couple of weeks.

It should also be noted that fair-haired paint was more suitable than owners of dark curls. On light hair, it matches the expected color more, looks brighter and richer, and lasts longer. Reviews show that gray hair is not painted over in all cases. Some people note that in the place of gray hair, the color becomes lighter than on the rest of the hair. It depends on the selected shade and on the original hair tone. In addition, some of the fair sex complain that the color turned out to be completely unexpected, there is not enough serum, and the balm does not work. Apparently, the dye is not created for all hair types.
