Moroccanoil's Intense Hydrating Mask delivers serious moisture to parched strands through its signature argan oil-based formula. The thick, luxurious cream penetrates deeply to repair dryness from heat styling, chemical processing, or environmental factors. Users report immediate improvements in softness and shine, with long-term benefits including reduced breakage and split ends when used regularly. The mask is particularly effective for thick, coarse, or curly hair types that tend to be moisture-starved. Many appreciate how it tames frizz without weighing hair down when used as directed (applied to wet hair for 5-7 minutes before rinsing).
The signature Moroccanoil fragrance is potent but fades after styling. While the price is higher than drugstore options, the large 16.9oz tub lasts for numerous treatments, making the cost per use reasonable. Some with fine or oily hair find they need to use sparingly or focus application only on ends to avoid greasiness. The mask works well as part of the Moroccanoil system but also pairs effectively with other brands' shampoos and conditioners.
