Avon - Advance Techniques Frizz Control Lotus Shield - Review & Swatch

What Avon says about Advance Techniques Frizz Control Lotus Shield:  

A world's first from AVON. Like a Lotus leaf repels water, our lotus shield treatment protects hair up-to 97% humidity. Keeps hair smooth and well-behaved for 3 days. Formulated for Long Lasting Manageability.

Price:  429 INR for 60 ml.


Look & Feel:

• Texture:  Semi translucent white coloured liquid neither runny nor thick. Perfect consistency for application
• Package: Sleek sturdy package with a well gripped cap for the nozzle opening.  
• Fragrance: Very pleasant and sweet floral smell. Wears off in 2-3 hours.

Tests & Results:

Hair Profile: Thick, dry and wavy.

• Damp Hair:  Spreads easily with little amount, de-tangles well and softens the hair. Once air-dried 40% of the frizz is back. Hair felt better on Day 2 than on Day 1. 
• Dried Hair: Spreads equally well, tames the fly-aways up-to 40%,  and softens the hair a little.
• Damp Hair & Styling: Gives soft hair after styling ( Blow drying / Curling / Flat ironing ) which lasts for 2 and half days :)
• Winters: Doesn't fulfil the needs of my thirsty hair. But would work for normal hair.
• Humid Weather: The claim of frizz fight at 97% humidity is farce. Provides nominal results .

Buy This:

• For hair softening
• For normal to moderately dry hair as it worked better for my mother's hair (thin, soft and frizzy) than my hair.
• For slightly frizzy hair.

Don't Buy:

• For not giving the silky smooth flowing hair.
• For Oily hair.
• For extremely frizzy hair.
• For the heavy price and the less quantity provided.

Final Note:  Don't fall for the big promises made by Avon. It's a good product but not a miraculous one. Other hair serums and leave-in conditioners provide better results for half the price of Lotus Shield.
