"I recently discovered it and I've been loving using this product. This works really well if you have frizzy hair and if you have dry damaged hair as well. But remember that this does tend to weigh your hair down a little bit, so use a very very small quantity. It comes in a large bottle you don't need a lot of it, just one pump should be enough. Use it only on the ends and then work your way up. You don't want to use too much of this product."

"L'Oreal Paris Extraordinary Oil Hair Serum"

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Alpha hydroxy acids

Alpha hydroxy acids loosen the bonds holding dead cells at the surface. The evidence supports smoother texture and more even tone over time, and they can leave skin more sensitive to sun.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
