Moroccanoil Intense Smoothing Frizz Control Hair Serum
by Moroccanoil · hair_care
Editor's Take
Four different silicones doing one job; frizz control; and they do it extremely well, though the clean and sustainability scores pay the price.
Four-pillar formula scores
- Performance: 8.2 / 10
- Innovative Ingredients: 6.8 / 10
- Clean Standards: 3.0 / 10
- Formula Sustainability: 3.5 / 10
The Verdict
This is a silicone specialist: Dimethicone, Phenyl Trimethicone, Diphenyl Dimethicone, and Hydrogen Dimethicone work together to create a humidity-resistant barrier that delivers directionally sound frizz control and high shine. The efficacy is legitimately strong; top-tier for smoothing serums; and the inclusion of Argan Oil, Squalene, and antioxidants adds real lipid support beneath the surface film. The trade-off is transparency: four persistent silicones and undisclosed fragrance push the clean score to 3.0, and the silicone load caps sustainability at 3.5. Worth it if you need serious frizz armor and aren't chasing a green-chemistry profile.
