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
Milky Piggy Collagen Ceramide Coating Protein Treatment is a conditioner from Elizavecca, 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 Cetearyl Alcohol, Behentrimonium Chloride and Glycerin. The list runs to 46 ingredients, 18 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 Amodimethicone, Cyclopentasiloxane and Dimethicone. 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.
Protein
It carries a moderate amount of protein — Hydrolyzed Silk, Hydrolyzed Collagen, Hydrolyzed Keratin and Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein — enough to firm up damaged lengths without dominating the formula.
On the scalp
For the scalp itself the formula carries Panthenol.
Build-up and porosity
Several ingredients here stay on the hair between washes — Amodimethicone, Cyclopentasiloxane and Dimethicone — 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 goes on after shampooing, on the lengths rather than the roots. After using shampoo, squeeze the water from the hair. Apply a suitable amount on hair and massage gently for 3 to 5 minutes. Rinse off with lukewarm water.
What it is not for
Nothing in this formula is aimed at scalp soothing, oil control, volume / lightweight 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
