Key Ingredients
- Glycolic Acid – the signature active in the Glycolic Gloss range. L'Oréal describes glycolic acid as a small alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) that helps improve the hair fibre and smooth the cuticle, contributing to increased shine.
- Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil – a nourishing oil that helps condition the hair and supports a softer, smoother feel.
- Amodimethicone – a conditioning silicone that helps smooth the hair surface, reduce roughness and enhance shine.
- Behentrimonium Chloride – a conditioning and detangling ingredient that helps improve softness and manageability.
- Polyquaternium-37 – a conditioning polymer that helps improve smoothness and the overall feel of the hair.
How to Use
After shampooing and conditioning, apply a generous amount to damp hair from the lengths to the tips. Leave the treatment on for 5 minutes, then rinse thoroughly.
For maximum shine, use as part of the complete Glycolic Gloss routine: Shampoo, Conditioner, 5 Minute Lamination Treatment and Leave-In Serum. Avoid contact with the eyes; if contact occurs, rinse immediately.
