    New favorite!

    I needed to try to save my bleached, thin, Scandinavian hair and was holding a significantly more expensive hair mask when an employee at Lyko in Kungsbacka recommended this one. It wasn't particularly expensive (maybe even cheap), so I thought I'd give it a try. Already after the first use, I actually noticed a difference (and I've tried a ton of hair masks). So, super affordable, and it will definitely be a repurchase. At least!

    Shine without the grease!

    I have that typical Scandinavian hair; thin and flat with a bit of natural wave. Bleached highlights and currently damaged and in great need of a trim. I have previously been quite cautious with hair oils as I mostly find they make my hair greasy, even if I only use it on the ends. But! Not this one! The bottle is small and handy and fits easily in both my toiletry bag and handbag when I'm on the go. I take one pump and distribute it in my hands before applying it to the lengths. Now I have tested the entire range, so I don't know if it's just the oil, but my hair becomes easy to detangle, stays fresh for a long time, and is shiny without being flat. Sometimes I do an extra treatment on dry hair before bed to boost a little, no greasy spots on the pillow the next morning. I have been using the range for 2 weeks, so it's a bit early to see long-lasting effects, but the bottle is meant to be used up, that's for sure. I think the entire Ultimate Smooth range from Wella Professionals is impressive and holds the same quality as significantly more expensive brands. The review was conducted on behalf of Smartson - the test pilot was allowed to try the product for free.

    Moisturizing and smells good

    I have that typical Scandinavian hair; thin and flat with a bit of frizz. Bleached highlights and currently damaged and in great need of a haircut. The mask comes in a jar with a screw lid, something I might find a bit cumbersome in the shower. I prefer a tube with a cap if I’m being picky. The consistency is just right and can easily be massaged into the hair. The scent is nice but discreet. I massage the mask in with every wash (not necessary but a habit I have with my hair), let it sit for a few minutes, and rinse out. I find my hair more moisturized and less frizzy, despite all the split ends. Easy to detangle afterwards. Doesn’t get flat and greasy like some masks can when there’s a bit too much pressure in them. I think this Wella Ultimate Smooth series gives a lot of Bang for the bucks, so to speak. These are products that can absolutely be compared to significantly more expensive brands, but at a more reasonable price. I can definitely recommend trying it if you’re curious, I was pleasantly surprised. The review was conducted on behalf of Smartson - the test pilot was allowed to try the product for free.

    Exceeds Expectations

    I have that typical Scandinavian hair; thin and flat with a bit of frizz. Bleached highlights and currently damaged and in great need of a haircut. The conditioner comes in a practical tube that stands stable in the shower. The consistency is just right, it doesn't run out of your hand and can easily be massaged into the hair. The scent is nice but discreet. It's hard to give a fair review just for the conditioner since I tested the whole line at once, but I think the hair became significantly easier to detangle after washing, despite all the damaged ends that tangle together. Unlike some "Smooth" conditioners, it doesn't weigh the hair down, but at the same time, I avoid all the frizz. The price tag on this conditioner is definitely reasonable in relation to the results, few conditioners have handled my tangles as well as this one.

    Affordable shampoo that definitely does its job!

    I have that typical Scandinavian hair; thin and flat with a bit of frizz. Bleached highlights and currently damaged and in great need of a haircut. The shampoo comes in a nice bottle that stands stable in the shower. The consistency is just right, it doesn't run out of your hand and can easily be massaged into the hair. The scent is nice but discreet. Now I always double shampoo, but my hair actually feels quite clean already after the first wash. It's hard to give a fair review just for the shampoo since I tested the whole line at once, but I absolutely think it holds up very well against more expensive brands like Sebastian Professionals Dark Oil and Olaplex that I've used recently. But at a more reasonable price. My hair feels clean, I experience it as moisturized and no frizz, despite all the damaged ends. It stays clean and fresh for a long time, unlike some "Smooth" shampoos that tend to make hair flat and dull quite quickly. As I said, a good shampoo at a good price. Could very well become a staple on my shower shelf. The review was conducted on behalf of Smartson - the test pilot was allowed to try the product for free.

    A bit disappointed actually..

    I got to test this mascara through Smartson and was fire and flames. This is a product I have wanted to try for a long time and had high expectations. At first glance, the brush was very small with short "bristles". This is probably a matter of habit, but I didn't really get along with it. Well, the mascara went on and the result was quite okay, about as it usually is. Neither more nor less. I went about my day as usual, came home in the evening and realized that I was black under the eyes. Hmm, it didn't hold so well.. However, it was stuck like glue when I tried to wash it off in the evening! With oil cleansing and two rounds of gel cleansing, it finally came off. Without the oil, it was impossible, I would have had to go to bed looking like a panda. Now I have used it for about 2 weeks and it’s about the same opinion that still applies. I will absolutely use it up, but it’s not a mascara I will buy again. It’s approved but won’t make it to my favorites list. As mentioned, the review was conducted on behalf of Smartson - I got to try the product for free.
