Advantages: Moisturising conditioner that leaves no frizz
Disadvantages: Could be fairly expensive if not on to 2 for £6 deal
Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Reconstructor Deep Conditioner
I bought the Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Reconstructor back in January when I saw it for sale in Morrison's, with a shampoo from the range for £6. This is a great deal as it's normally around £4.88 on its own (Boots).
I picked up the conditioner and the Mega shampoo, as I tend to wash my hair everyday.
I have noticed it since then on offer regularly in the supermarkets and also in Boots - its currently on the 2 for £6 at Boots so if you like it, as I now do, stock up now (plus you get points)!
I had not used the Aussie brand before. The 3 minute Miracle comes in a 250ml bottle and I still have about a third left 2months on, despite daily use.
The bottle is white with the distinctive purple Aussie brending at the top and sits on a flat surface with a squeezy hole at the bottom, unlike a tradtional conditioner bottle. This means that it sits easily on the side of the bath and it's a really good way to control the amount that you need.
I use a small dollop - it comes out easily with a squeeze and the design of the bottle would make it difficult to use too much and end up with half a bottle in your hands.
I use the 3 Minute Miracle just like a regular conditioner, ie everytime I wash my hair.
A friend of mine uses it too, but she finds it suitable for a once a week treat only, using a lighter conditoner for the other times. It will depend on your hair type.
Mine is fine and curly, not coloured and sometimes gets a bit dry.
The conditioner is infused with Australian Mint Balm extract which gives it an unusual, sweet fragrance - I find it pleasant, but mint would not be the first word that springs to my mind !
As the name suggests, you can leave the potion on for up to 3 minutes to let it work its magic - as I use it daily, I'm probably more like half of that, a minute and a half, though naturally I am not timing myself as I'm in the shower !
The bottle claims that it helps to mend split ends and roughened cuticles.
Now, I'm no hairdresser, but I reckon that the only thing good for split ends is the scissors, but feel free to tell me differently !
The second claim, about smoothing out roughenened cutilcles, I can indeed vouch for.
My hair always feels soft and moisturised after using this and I never get frizz. My curls seem seperated and luscious (if I do say so myself!) and I will definitely be buying this one again.
Overall, its great value for money, and it leaves my hair in tip top condition. I can always smell the sweet smell on my hair for the first few hours after I wash it too, which is pleasant.
Plus there is no waste and the bottle is 100% recyclable !
Summary: Great everyday conditioner that leaves hair smooth and sexy
