What this product is

Written from the ingredient list. Where it describes how a formula behaves, that is inferred from what the ingredients are and where they sit in the list, not measured.

Overview

Vitalizing Hair Essence is a essence from Daeng Gi Meo Ri, aimed at wavy hair, curly hair and medium hair. On the evidence of its ingredient list, the formula works on moisture, frizz control and shine. The ingredients doing most of that work are Propylene Glycol, Glycerin and Dimethicone. The list runs to 57 ingredients, 16 of which carry a role we recognise for hair.

How it feels on hair

By the balance of its ingredients the formula reads as neither especially rich nor especially light. It contains Dimethicone, Bis-peg-18 Methyl Ether Dimethyl Silane and Phenyl Trimethicone. Silicones smooth the cuticle and cut frizz on contact; they are also what a clarifying wash is for, because they do not rinse out with a mild shampoo. The formula leans to moisture rather than protein.

Protein

There is a small amount of protein in the list: Hydrolyzed Silk, Keratin, Arginine and Cysteine.

On the scalp

For the scalp itself the formula carries Panthenol, Salicylic Acid and Salicylic Acid. On an oily scalp the richer ingredients here can read as greasy at the roots.

Build-up and porosity

Several ingredients here stay on the hair between washes — Dimethicone, Bis-peg-18 Methyl Ether Dimethyl Silane and Phenyl Trimethicone — so on low-porosity or fine hair this is a formula that will want a clarifying wash from time to time.

Where it goes

It is a leave-in: applied after washing and not rinsed out. Shake well and spray a moderate amount evenly on wet or dry hair at a distance of about 10cm.

What it is not for

Nothing in this formula is aimed at oil control, volume / lightweight, curl definition and color protection — not a fault, just the shape of what is in the bottle, and the reason one product rarely covers a whole routine. No ingredient here is one we recognise as supporting hair growth. Reducing breakage and growing hair are different things, and this formula's evidence is for the first.

In short

Working for it

  • No sulfate detergents
  • Suitable for colour-treated hair

Worth knowing
