One of the many perks of being a beauty editor is getting to test countless new products—I mean, we have to give informed recommendations, right? I've been immersed in the beauty world for almost three years now, but beauty director Erin Jahns has spent the last eight years testing everything from haircare to skincare to makeup to wellness devices. She shares all her top-tier recs in her Close Friends newsletter, and her recent review of Davines' Hair Milk caught my attention. She calls this leave-in treatment a "nectar from the gods if you seek megawatt shine and softness for your strands." After reading this, you can bet I wanted to check it out. And it turns out that's not the only product from this brand that's worth putting on your radar.
Recently, the Beautiful Things Restoring Leave-In Mask came across my desk, and I had a feeling it was going to be a new go-to in my haircare routine. I'm always on the lookout for a good hair mask to help tame my thick, frizzy hair, and this one hits all the marks. Whether you have fiery auburn hair like Erin, sun-kissed blonde highlights like me, jet-black strands, or rich brown tresses, it keeps your color as vibrant as the day you got it done. It also adds a luxurious softness and shine that rivals that of salon treatments—but even better because it contains all the natural, nourishing ingredients you'd want in your haircare products, and none of the chemicals you don't.
The star ingredient of this hair mask is actually one that I'd never heard of before—it's a type of biomimetic filler derived from the stem cells of olive trees. Instead of just coating the outside of the hair, this powerhouse ingredient goes deep into your strands to strengthen your hair from within—hence the incredible before-and-afters. It's also boosted with potent botanicals like baobab extract, a natural, ultra-nourishing silicone alternative, and vegan collagen, which creates a protective shield that helps repair the daily toll that UV damage, pollution, and chemicals take on your hair. Oh, it also doubles as a heat protectant, so it helps to streamline styling, too. It's the ultimate all-in-one treatment, and you won't regret adding it to your routine.
Frizz control, heat protection, and weightless hydration? Count me in. If you're wondering how to use a hair milk, it couldn't be easier: Simply spray the product on towel-dried hair, air-dry or blow-dry like normal, and show off your silky-soft locks.
This shampoo contains roucou oil, an antioxidant-rich ingredient that leaves your hair soft, shiny, and voluminous.
Try this conditioner once, and you'll wonder how you ever survived without it. It gives impeccable volume and shine, and also makes styling a breeze by accelerating the drying process and protecting your hair against heat damage. Plus, it smells heavenly.
Yes, you need a hair butter. Apply this smoothing and softening butter as a pre-shampoo treatment to detangle, reduce frizz, and provide ample nourishment and hydration.
