Shiny, healthy, commercial-worthy hair is easily the most luxurious look for spring. To achieve the same level of luster, try L’Oréal Paris EverPure Cleansing Balm, which nourishes dry, colour-treated hair back to life. The sulfate-free, low-lather conditioner transforms into a gentle cleanser, which softens and adds radiance.
