Oribe Supershine Hydrating Conditioner draws complaints about the packaging.

Caviar Anti-Aging Smoothing Anti-Frizz Conditioner

Reviewer notes a pleasant scent as a plus.

Reviewer reports the conditioner leaves hair feeling soft and clean.

Reviewer still noticed some frizz after limited use and hoped consistent use would improve results over time.

new user, short time using product

Supershine Hydrating Conditioner

Multiple reviewers describe the conditioner as silky, detangling, and shine-boosting, especially when paired with the matching shampoo.

general

Several reviewers with fine or thick wavy hair report added shine and volume with no greasy residue after blow-drying or straightening.

fine or thick wavy hair

A recurring packaging complaint: the tube becomes slippery when wet and the flip cap can snap off, causing the bottle to leak or fall in the shower.

general, packaging-specific

Reviewers with curly or textured hair say the conditioner alone is not hydrating enough and needs a follow-up leave-in or extra moisture step, while it performs well as a stand-alone product on straight or fine hair.

curly hair vs. straight/fine hair

Some reviewers say the fragrance is fainter or less pronounced than expected from an Oribe product, contrasting with other reviewers who call the scent a highlight.

How this page was made

  • This page is assembled from the same researched records the individual product pages render: identity, each ingredient list as printed, each brand's own claims, dated price observations, and review themes written in our researchers' own words. Nothing on it is written per comparison.
  • We do not rank these against each other. Which of them suits you depends on your hair, and that is what the consultation works out.
  • The formula similarity percentage is a stored, precomputed number: position-weighted overlap of the two ingredient lists blended with agreement on the attributes we derive. It measures how alike two formulas are, not how well either works.
  • The value band is a fixed label over two stored numbers: this product’s cost per ounce as a percentile of every product of this type we have priced, each at the size it is most often sold in, and how many products we score as doing the same job cost at least a quarter less per ounce.
  • The "Is this right for you?" panel reads only your own consultation answers, and it applies exactly the filters our recommendation engine applies. It is computed when you load the page and is never stored on it.
  • 9 sources were consulted across the products on this page.
  • Ingredient order tells you relative amount only above roughly 1%. Prices are observations on the dates shown and change without notice. We do not sell these products and take no placement fees.
  • This is cosmetic information, not medical advice, and nothing here diagnoses or treats a health condition.
