L’Oréal Paris Elvive Colour Protect Rapid Reviver Conditioner 180ml | With Amino Acid and Vitamin E, Twice the Conditioning Ingredients, Instant Nourishment, for Coloured Hair

I went into this product expecting a basic “2× more care in 2 minutes” type of conditioner, but it actually surprised me in a way I didn’t expect. The first thing you notice is the texture: it’s not heavy or buttery like some deep conditioners, but it’s not runny either. It spreads through the hair with almost zero resistance, which instantly gives that feeling that it’s coating the strands evenly instead of just sitting on top. What struck me most is that it behaves like something between a rinse-out conditioner and a leave-in—it has that silky, slip-enhancing feel that detangles without effort, yet it rinses cleaner than typical deep-repair masks. There’s no waxy residue, which is rare for colour-protect lines. On coloured hair (especially if it’s been through bleach or frequent dyeing), the ends often feel dull and porous no matter what you use. This formula actually makes them feel “sealed” again, like the cuticle gets momentarily smoothed down. After drying, the difference is subtle but real: the hair looks less foggy and more light-reflective, as if the colour underneath can shine through again. It doesn’t create that artificial silicone-gloss that some conditioners rely on—it’s more of a healthy softness rather than a slippery coating. What I liked most is that it doesn’t flatten the hair, which is a constant issue if you have fine or colour-damaged strands that go limp the moment you use something too rich. In terms of “repair,” it’s not a miracle product, but it gives the immediate cosmetic fix that makes coloured hair behave better—less snagging, less frizz, more movement, and a slightly richer tonality. If your hair is very dry or heavily bleached, you’d still need a proper weekly mask, but this fills the gap between washes perfectly. One small insight: because it’s designed to act quickly, it’s great for people who hate the whole “stand in the shower for 5 minutes waiting for a treatment to work” routine. A 20–30 second application is genuinely enough, which makes it unexpectedly practical.

This is a decent conditioner which, when used with the corresponding shampoo, it definitely does help to keep my colour fresh and vibrant. It feels deeply conditioning and leaves my hair shiny. The smell is also not too strong, unlike some other products. I think it’s a good price for what it is.

Bought this conditioner before it’s really rich and creamy. Excellent conditioner.

Love this it smells great and leaves my hair really soft

This is a repeat purchase as I really like this conditioner. My hair is coloured and gets knotted very quickly so I need a conditioner that smooths my hair, but also protects the colour, and this works well at doing both. I like that you do not need to leave it in, as you do with many conditioners, as I always seem to be short on time and appreciate that I don’t need to faff about with this one! The conditioner is easy to apply, gets to work straight away and rinses out quite well. I would be lying if I was to say that my hair is perfect afterwards, as it still needs quite a bit of combing, but it is so much better than other conditioners I have used and my hair is particularly difficult! I think the price of this conditioner is very reasonable and this is definitely my go to everyday conditioner.

I love this - makes my hair soft , tangle free and smells lovely

Excellent service and value fast delivery excellent quality. L9ve this on my red dye hair

Love this condition, it is brilliant for my hair. I have my hair regularly coloured and this conditioner keeps my hair in lovely condition.

Ottima crema, rende i capelli morbidi.

I don't think it's 180mL. It is too light.

Niente di che
