Garnier Fructis Hair Food papaya mask softens and nourishes damaged hair, as a three-in-one treatment.
Pamper damaged hair with the Garnier Fructis Hair Food mask with papaya. This ultra-nourishing Garnier hair mask helps leave hair softer, more supple and smoother to the touch. Its formula is enriched with vitamins C, E and F.
This Garnier Fructis mask can be used in three ways. As a detangling conditioner, apply it after shampooing and rinse out. As a mask, leave it on the lengths for 3 to 5 minutes. As a leave-in treatment, apply a little to dry or wet hair. Its texture melts into the hair and its delicious papaya scent is very popular.
The pot contains 320 ml, enough to last a long time. The formula is vegan, made up of 97% ingredients of natural origin, silicone-free and, according to the brand, dermatologically tested. The Garnier Fructis Hair Food mask suits damaged, curly or coily hair, as a mask or as a styling treatment.
