Mechanism of Action

Garnier Ultra Doux Rice Water & Starch Hydrating Hair Mask works through conditioning ingredients that help improve the feel of the hair surface.

When applied after shampooing, conditioning agents distribute along the strands and help reduce friction between them.

This supports softness, easier detangling and improved smoothness.

A smoother hair surface may also reflect light more evenly, improving the appearance of shine.

The complete formula helps improve the look and feel of hair affected by dryness and roughness.

Important: This is a cosmetic hair care treatment. It does not permanently repair structural damage or split ends, and rice water alone should not be assumed to stimulate hair growth.

• Hair affected by heat styling.
• Individuals seeking a smoothing hair mask.
• People who prefer rice water hair care.
• Individuals seeking a hydrating hair mask.
