    What the gurus are saying

    This leave-in conditioner earns powerful repeat-purchase loyalty for its dual-functionality and strong heat-protective benefits. Reviewers report using it both as a leave-in conditioner applied after washing and as a protective top coat. The heat protection and sustained color care make it an automatic reorder, though in-store availability is limited, so shopping online is the most reliable way to source it consistently.

    "I've used this one up [...] and I love it. [...] I will be repurchasing this. I think this one and the one by Hail are just phenomenal. They're doing nice things to my hair. I'm going to try to get the little travel one that I can use just when I'm out and about for only a week or two."
    ⭐️ Spring Beauty Empties
    "The other one is by Pureology, it is the Color Fanatic leave-in conditioner color protectant. It has 21 other benefits, it does everything. I have recently added a leave-in conditioner to the routine because of my dry, brittle, menopausal hair and I like this. [...] I've gone through many of these and I bought a little one at Ulta for travel, which is brilliant because I can take that with me when I go somewhere. [...] Yes, I'll repurchase."

    "It's called the Color Fanatic Multitasking Leave-In Spray. It's a leave-in conditioner with a ton of benefits for the hair. It also helps to prime and protect it and it's suitable for all hair types. It also works as a heat protectant so I know that what I'm about to do later protects my hair even better. I have used this for years. I have gone through bottles of it and I continue to reorder."

    "I have learned this year that one of the most important things when you rinse out the conditioner is to actually use a leave-in conditioner so I spray the one by Pureology, this is called Color Fanatic. I use this anytime I wet my hair so that just kind of helps to seal everything in and protect the hair."

    What the evidence says.

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

    Vitamin C

    Topical vitamin C is an antioxidant with reasonable evidence for dullness and uneven tone. It breaks down in light and air, so how a product is formulated and packaged matters as much as the percentage on the front.

    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.
