This very generous sized hair mask sample came in my January 2017 Sephora Play subscription. It smells amazing...like a fancy salon. The thin cream looks luminous (like a highlighter) but it goes on clear. I added this to my braided 3rd day hair before taking a shower. I rinsed it out of the braids but did not shampoo. My hair smells great but I don't notice any difference in texture. My hair is curly...but that is due to the braids not the product! Oddly enough, the color of my hair looks darker today. And my hair is greasy, but that is a combination of the product, the rinse-only, and my naturally greasy hair. We will see what happens when I truly wash my hair tomorrow....
No noticeable difference after the shampoo. Except that my hair does feel a little softer and fluffier. I don't think I will ever buy a full size, but I will use up this tube!
