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 00:50h, 26 MarchI can’t believe there are so many negatives reviews about the sublime mousse hair dye. You guys also have to keep in mind the condition of your hair before you dyed it. From a point of view from someone who has long healthy hair, the product was absolutely amazing. My hair goes down my back so I bought 2 bottles. For those that complained about 30 min of dryness, its probably cause u needed 2nd bottle. My hair was completely saturated. Anyways so I’m in the shower and I’m washing it out and to my surprise this is the first time that my hair did not feel like straw before I put in conditioner. I was so amazed. The conditioner it came with was very rich. Better than my 30 dollar biolage conditioner. Too bad u can’t buy a larger bottle of it. OK so I’m blowdrying my hair straight and checked every inch. That mousse completely covered everything. My hair was a shiny brown with a hint of red just like the box. (Number 56) I’m so happy with it…last time I was this happy with my hair it also cost 200$ plus tip for the shampoo girl and the actual hairdresser…This was a steal..I saved sooooo much and got the same exact outcome. I love you loreal. I will never buy another hair dye again. LOL.

Posted at 14:34h, 29 MarchThank you ladies for the reviews, I am a redhead and was thinking about going dark medium brown with this easy product but now I’m afraid which one to use, maybe if I use dark blond it’ll come out black lol. Deff not using this product to go dark(I’m afraid to go black) and it seems like any brown color will give you black from what I’m reading, thanks girls!!

Posted at 23:30h, 29 MarchI just bought the Sublime Pure Medium Brown. My hair was two shades lighter then this, and I was trying to tone down some orangish tones that had come to my hair, so I figure I would try it. My hair is chin length, so I used one bottle and found that my hair was super dry and the mousse was gone within 15 minutes. I washed my hair and fell in love with the color. It was great. It was a tad bit darker then the shade that I currently had, which was what I wanted it. This was Saturday. By Monday night when I washed my hair, all the color washed out and I was left with a flat color that was so similar to what I had right before I dyed it. I was super disappointed, this was the first time I have dyed my hair in 18 months. I dont recommend this product at all.
