03 Feb Review: L’Oreal Paris Debuts New Sublime Mousse Healthy Look Haircolor
BREAKING NEWS: The hottest hair color trend of the season is Illuminata. See the technique and photos HERE!
In this era of instant gratification, we want Twitter-speed results. This surely, applies to your hair color, right?
It seems that L’Oreal Paris heard your cry and answered in the form of its latest hair-coloring offering: the new Sublime Mousse, which is no ordinary mousse or foam, but a truly sublime one.
(Dictionary definition of sublime for the classic nerd is: : “to elevate or exalt especially in dignity or honor”).
So, in other words, consider your hair coloring experience elevated. Knocked up a notch. The Sublime Mousse Healthy Look Haircolor is a lighter-than-ether airy mousse that is mess free and easy to apply as shampoo. Gray hairs are instantly covered.
How do you use it? You rotate the pump bottle to mix the formula,and dispense the foam into your hand and massage it into the hair like shampoo. There are 12 shades of permanent hair color in this collection, each as unique as you. At a recent event, we saw the model’s shiny, glossy locks and were impressed. This is truly one knockout mousse!
This retails at the beginning of March 2011 for $9.99 at mass retail and drugstores everywhere.

Posted at 14:53h, 04 Julymy hair is a darker shade of blonde and i bought the l’oreal pure light blonde (90). i have read mixed reviews about this product and im not sure what to do.i think because i chose such a light color that it should lighten it up a little mabey not wats on the box but i would be happy with just one shade lighter. im going to try this and i will be back to give my opinion on how it turned out:)

Posted at 15:41h, 12 JulyI tried the Sublime Mousse in the Golden Medium Blonde twice and can’t say I like it. True, it is less messy than other products but I didn’t find the coverage to be as good and it was way too dark. It should be labeled Golden Dark Blonde. A little peroxide added to my shampoo for three washings helped a little but I will not buy this again. My hair is way too dull, even using the conditioner provided for 5 washings. It tangles easily. I will go back to my L’Oreal Excellence.

Posted at 16:12h, 14 JulyI just tried the new Sublime and while the application was really easy I am disappointed in the color. I used the ultra light brown and my hair turned out medium-dark brown. I’m going to do a search and see what I can do to lighten it up without destroying my hair.

Posted at 13:23h, 19 JulyI was going for a lighter color than I had and ended up darker. Not sure why so many on here plus myself was going for a color and ended up with something totally opposite. Um. My hair was a very light brown almost blonde and I was going to lighten it up a little and ended up medium brown.
