AMW Reviews: Cream Silk Precision Repair Treatment

Last month, I've attended "Runway Ready" Hair for Philippine Fashion Week by Cream Silk.  I've asked myself if runway ready hair can be achieved by doing weekly home treatments and spending less amount of money.  Is it really possible?



Cream Silk says ---

The silky, rich cream pinpoints the damage to reconstruct and help strengthen hair internally and externallly, exactly where there's wear and tear.

It transforms damanged hair to superb softness, smoothness and shine.

Ingredients
Water, cetearyl alcohol, Dimethiconol, Behentrimonium Chloride, Amodimethicone, Parfum, Stearamidopropyl Dimethylamine, C11-13 Isoparaffin, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Citric Acid, Cetrimonium Chloride, Quaternium-18 Bentonite, Meroxapol 311, Disodium EDTA, Cetyl Hydroxyethylcellulose, Lysine Hydrochloride, Hellanthus annuus, Oleic Acid, Silk Amino Acids, Olea europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Ceramide 2, Aloe  barbadensis.

Pros
  • inexpensive product
  • smells WONDERFUL
  • works!  I swear it made my hair softer and tangle free
  • I don't have a lot of falling hair as before
Cons
  •  NONE
Overall
I've used Cream Silk conditioners in the past and they are always so-so for me, nothing spectacular so I never expected anything on the new Cream Silk Precision Repair Treatment.  I have my backup hair treatment just in case this one messes up!  And surprisingly!  I don't even need to touch my backup for a couple of weeks as this product works!  It seriously works and I am singing praises!  Bravo to Cream Silk for coming up with such wonderful and inexpensive hair treatment that works! 

Blow drying obviously dehydrated my hair,  and not to forget constant use of flat iron or curling iron!  For the past 4 weekends, I've used this hair treatment and massage it section per section and cling wrap it for more than 30 minutes, my hair is definitely recharged for the coming weeks! 

Tips
From Cream Silk

After using shampoo & conditioner, squeeze out excess water and massage a few scoops  onto hair.  Leave on for just 3-5 minutes, then rinse.  For best results, use with Cream Silk Protect and Revitalize Conditioner and Cream Silk Smooth Defense Leave-on.

For normal to slightly damaged hair, use at least once a week.
For severely damaged hair after coloring, straightening and perming, use consecutively for 3 days and every 7 days after.

From AMW
  • if you don't have the time, you can leave this while you shower for 3-5 minutes
  • if you have the time, do leave this product longer!  I swear, my hair after washing is just divine!
  • use a scoop instead of your fingers  to grab the product
  • do not scrimp on product usage, the longer or thicker hair you got, the more product is needed.
  • your hair and my hair are totally different!  Not sure if this product works for your hair?  Purchase their treatment sachet for cheaper amount.  Not much wastage if it doesn't work for you.


Will I repurchase?
Yes!  I did!  I bought 2 more tubs!

Where to purchase and how much?
Available in all leading supermarkets, department stores and personal care stores nationwide. 
20ml sachet - Php14.00 (approx $0.30)
270ml tub - Php210.00 (approx $4.57)

A closer look on the product
The texture felt like creamy gel
Looks like "tofu" lol

 

Have you used Cream Silk's Precision Repair Treatment?
What's your experience?
Love it ? Hate It? 

Keep smilin'
Stay happy!

  3. I bought the sachet two to three weeks ago, and I've been using it for the past two weekends. And like you, I LOVE IT! Definitely try the sachet version first if you're not too sure. I have short hair so it got me two uses. :}
