Herbal Essences Long Term Relationship Split End Defense Cream

The Herbal Essences Long Term Relationship Split End Defense Cream made its way to my local Wal-Mart and I was so excited to see it on the shelf!

I started my hair journey as the Long Term Relationship Leave-In Conditioner was phasing out and the Herbal Essences Touchably Smooth Split End Protector had taken its place. Then after just a few months into my journey the Herbal Essences Split End Protector was being discounted and discontinued from local stores here in Cincinnati.

The Long Term Relationship Leave-In Conditioner received rave reviews all over YouTube and I loved the Split End Protector. So I was so happy when I found the Herbal Essences Long Term Relationship Split End Defense Cream this morning!

This cream/moisturizer is now made with pomegranate essences and promises 20 hours of smoothness. This product is designed for proactive use against split ends. It promises to keep your ends 10 times stronger and prevent breakage.

So what's my first impression? How does it compare to the Herbal Essences Touchably Smooth Split End Protector?

First, I LOVE the fragrance. It is much more soothing and delicious than the former Split End Protector. The
consistency of the product is similar to the Protector and the average moisturizer. It is light on the hair if used as directed (1-2 pumps onto ends of wet hair).

I applied this product onto dry hair, because, well....I just couldn't wait until wash day. :) And I only used about 1 pump for my entire head…half a pump for each side. It didn’t melt into my strands like other moisturizers I’ve tried but still, it's moisturizing, and the fragrance lingers on my strands. It’s pomegranate yumness! 

When I started my hair journey the Long Term Relationship Leave-In Conditioner was impossible to find where I live, so I can't give this version a fair comparison to that one.

The Long Term Relationship Split End Defense Cream doesn't top my favorite moisturizer, the Elasta QP Moisturizer Olive Oil & Mango Butter, but it's still a good product. It is especially a great moisturizer for the price.

I found it at my local Wal-Mart for $2.98 for a 6 oz. bottle. Since a little goes a long way, it's a great bargain for those of us on a budget!

The Ingredients List…water/eau, stearyl alcohol, cetyl alcohol, stearamidopropyl dimethylamine, dimethicone, zea mays (corn) silk extract, rubus idaeus (raspberry) fruit extract, hydrolyzed silk, glutamic acid,  benzyl alcohol, fragrance/parfum, citric acid, disodium edta, sodium chloride, methylisothiazolinone.

Shopping for this product online may cost you more than you want to pay. If it is not on your local shelves yet, it may be more cost effective to just wait it out.

I will use the Herbal Essences Long Term Relationship Split End Defense Cream again on wash day and see how it responds. I have a feeling, this one will be a staple product...but we'll see how long this one stays on the shelves.


Blessings!
Candra
