Moroccanoil Intense Smoothing Frizz Control Hair Serum

by Moroccanoil · hair_care

Editor's Take

Mostly silicone, and unapologetically so; it earns top-tier frizz control and mirror shine, but the clean and sustainability story falls flat.

Four-pillar formula scores

  • Efficacy: 8.2 / 10
  • Modern Tech: 6.8 / 10
  • Clean Beauty: 3.0 / 10
  • Sustainability: 3.5 / 10

The Verdict

The High Efficacy formula uses Dimethicone and Phenyl Trimethicone to coat the cuticle, block humidity, and deliver durable smoothing. Argan oil and squalene add lipid support, though silicone remains the main event. Clean is weak, and its Lower Sustainability Fit reflects persistent silicones plus undisclosed fragrance. Worth it for stubborn frizz and glossy finishes, with environmental credentials firmly off the counter.
