(해외) 다이렉트 리브-인™  웨이트리스 모이스처 컨디셔너

I'm not sure if it's hives, but from the moment I started using it, my arms felt a bit prickly. I've never experienced such symptoms before, so I was quite surprised... My skin didn't itch or turn red, but I heard that some people can have allergic reactions to it. It seems it doesn't agree with some people.

When I applied it during hydration, there was no sticky feeling, and it seemed to absorb well.

The downside is that the instant hydration is the main function - the ingredient composition doesn't have much that actually nourishes the hair. It doesn't have any harmful ingredients, but it's not ideal for long-term hair care. It would be better to use a lightweight curl cream instead of this.

It's affordable and easy to use. This was my first time trying the Leevin Conditioner, and the formula is just like a rinse - it applies smoothly to the hair. After drying, there's less frizz and the curls are more defined. I've heard this is a popular product in the curly hair community, and it really does provide great instant hydration for curly hair.

 To balance the oil and moisture, I've been mixing 2-3 drops of argan oil into this product before applying it. The lightweight argan oil seems to work well with this product.

I also use the same method when refreshing my hair in the morning, thoroughly wetting my hair first and then applying the mixture. As a finishing touch, I apply a small amount of curl cream, which helps control the frizz significantly more effectively than using the curl cream alone.

 Apply the product mainly to the hair strands, and be careful to avoid contact with the scalp as much as possible. It has been reported that this can cause itchiness or pimples. I also apply it only to the hair strands and then gently brush through with a comb to minimize the product reaching the scalp.

Fortunately, this product seems to suit my skin well, and I've been using it without any significant side effects. However, for those with sensitive skin, it would be best to do a patch test before using the product.

This is a product to be applied to damp hair. Applying it to dry hair can cause a whitish residue (?) to appear. Please use it after washing your hair or thoroughly wetting the hair strands.

Applying this product alone will not eliminate the puffiness, as the absorbed moisture needs to be prevented from evaporating. It's best to use this product together with a lightweight oil or a hair product with some oily/emollient properties.

 I am using this product for wavy (2ab) curly hair to provide moisture and reduce frizz.

(Texture)
It has a clear and thin liquid (?) texture. When I dispense it onto my hand and rub it with my fingers, it has a moisturizing lotion-like feel.

(Fragrance)
I can't quite define the scent, but it does have a fragrance. However, the fragrance is very mild, and it dissipates completely once applied to my hair, becoming unscented. Of course, some people may still be able to detect a slight lingering fragrance.

(Usage Experience)
It applies lightly and smoothly. When I apply the right amount to my damp hair, I can feel the moisture being replenished. It doesn't feel sticky at all.

(Effectiveness)
While managing my curly hair, I'm most concerned about maintaining the right balance of oil and moisture. I was particularly worried about my hair lacking moisture. This product is excellent at providing moisture. It has also significantly improved my severe frizz. The puffiness doesn't disappear completely, but using the right amount of this product and synergizing it with other hair care products, I can control 70-90% or more of the frizz.

After application, it doesn't make my hair extremely soft and smooth, just average.
The effects aren't quite as good as 'too good'.

Unlike other products, this brand doesn't cause breakouts around my chin or forehead when I apply it to my hair. It's great that I can purchase it at a reasonable price through overseas direct buying.
It doesn't have any fragrance.
Applying the right amount helps prevent static electricity well.

The only downside is that it applies a bit generously, so it can feel a bit excessive. And since it's not sold domestically, I have to order it through international channels.

I first learned about the Leebin Conditioner product line when using CGM. It's a leave-in conditioner that you apply to damp hair without rinsing. Since it's for the wavy stage of curly/coily hair, it has a lightweight formula that blends seamlessly into damp hair.

I've been selectively applying only certain CGM steps daily rather than doing the full routine, and it's definitely different from regular conditioners or hair essences. It provides nourishment, but the focus is on reviving bouncy, lively curls. It doesn't feel irritating or greasy on the skin either - it's actually lighter than many hair essences on the market.

Even just using this conditioner after rinsing, my curls spring back to life, which feels amazing. Then when I apply a curl cream on top, my curls become much more voluminous than I expected - 'Is this really my natural curl pattern?' It reminds me of the Lana Del Rey 'Ride' music video look, just with slightly less density (though I'd recommend skipping that video, it has some questionable content). As someone who envies the full-bodied look of curly-haired folks, this routine has allowed me to capture that vibe, even if I don't have naturally thick hair. An added bonus is that my hair looks shorter and more compact. As my curl routine revives my texture, my length naturally gets a bit shorter too, so I'll have to keep growing it out. For work, I just let it down or clip it up, and the volume in the back makes it look styled even when I'm just going through the motions.

Those who find it lacking can mix it with the jojoba oil or other hair products you have.

The strawberry scent is zingy. It's a relief that it fades away. But it's still more tolerable than other hair products. Foreign products have way too strong of a scent.

A leave-in treatment: What they call a 'leave-in conditioner' abroad. A product that is more focused on moisture rather than thick, oily texture. It is noticeably better than some products that you're not even sure if you've applied properly. I recommend applying it generously.
However, for dyed hair, the moisture-oil balance doesn't quite match, so it doesn't tame the frizz, so you'll need to apply a hair oil as well. So for someone like me who wants to use it alone, it's a bit disappointing. If a product comes out that matches my hair's moisture-oil balance perfectly, I'd switch to that.
