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 01:36h, 22 JulyMy post would be the same as Lisa’s. My hair is ultra light brown with dark blonde in it, I used #70 Pure Dark Blonde and now I have medium brown hair.

Posted at 21:08h, 25 JulyI just tried this product, dark blonde, and I have black hair, it didn’t even work. Left it in for 45 mins, instead of 30 and it still didn’t make a difference. I don’t like this product, I’m better off going to the salon or using real dye for my hair, this product was terrible. I wouldn’t buy it.

Posted at 01:23h, 27 JulyI have dyed brown to blonde at home many time before. Right now my hair is dark to medium brown, so I bought the lighted sublime mouse- 90 blonde…and my hair is still dark brown. Nothing changed at all. I usually see at least a couple shade difference in my own or friends hair at this point, I have never used a hair dye that did nothing! Soooooo dissapointed, wasted so much of my time. Gotta go to the store tomorrow and buy and whole new dye and start again.

Posted at 21:31h, 28 JulyAfter reading the reviews, I felt like I should talk about my positive experience with this product. I have used several hair dyes in the past, and I usually tend to go for medium to darker browns when picking out my color. My hair is naturally medium brown, but turns a little brassy in the summertime. When I pick out dark brown shades, inevitably it turns out almost black. So I’ve learned my lesson to stay clear of anything “darkest brown”. And I have had experiences in the past where days later I realize I missed a patch in the back, so I’m left with a two-toned spotty look (sexy!). I wanted to give the mousse a try for the sake of covering all of my hair. I picked out the pure medium brown (50). The application process was a cinch. I’m used to the dye dripping down my forehead, neck, and onto my towel and this product didn’t do that at all. Once I rinsed it out and blew dry my hair I loved the color!! It was a rich medium to dark brown. My friend complimented me that my hair looked so healthy that night. I will be using this product again.
