Living Proof Perfect Hair Day 5-in-1 Styling Treatment

We know.  From the minute we heard Jennifer Aniston was a co-owner of the hair product line Living Proof we were skeptics too.  Found only at makeup/beauty supply stores like Sephora and Ulta, we found we were never really compelled to seek out the line of shampoos, conditioners, and styling products.  Last month, however, while in Sephora stocking up on another unrelated product, curiosity finally got the best of us and we decided to pick up a bottle of the Perfect Hair Day 5-in-1 Styling Treatment

$26 is a bit more than we'll usually allow ourselves to splurge on a trial product, but given the promise of a perfect. hair. day. we couldn't really resist. 

Turns out?  Within a handful of weeks, we've become mildly obsessed with this PhD product - and maybe even the entire Living Proof hair line.

One of the things we like the most about the 5-in-1 styling treatment is exactly that -- we get five hair related promises (volumizing, smoothing, conditioning, strengthening, and polishing) in one easy step.  You apply a tiny dime sized amount of the product to damp hair and then style as usual.  From the first morning we used said product we noticed an immediate difference in our fine hair, as it was easier to style, manage, and tame. Initially, we wondered if we were experiencing the placebo effect given our love for all new things beauty product related, but even weeks after that first use, our hair seems shiner, healthier, and just in a better place style-wise whenever we use it.  Color us converted.

An extra five bonus points are awarded for the fact that the PhD formula is sulfate, paraben, and phthalate free.  (Though we did take away one point for the container/bottle design.  The look of it is sleek and sexy, no question, but it can be hard to manage just how much product comes out of the bottle.  Given that one only needs the tiniest amount each morning AND the fact that the styling cream isn't exactly cheap, this seems like it could have been better designed.)  (Don't worry.  We'll tell Jennifer this, should we ever rub elbows.)

Perfect hair days elude all of us at one point or another, let's be honest.  Looks like Living Proof has finally managed to find a way to make them a bit more attainable, thank heavens.  Dare we aim for 365 perfect hair days a year?

Average Price: $26/4 oz.
