Amazon cuts 25% off 'game changing' hair mask that is 'better than K18 and Olaplex'
If your dry, damaged hair is in need of some repair, there are a couple of to-brands many will recommend. Two that come to mind will be Olaplex and K18.
Like many professional names, they can often be almost as pricey as a trip to the salon itself. Which leads many beauty buffs to look for any alternatives that deliver similar results on a budget.
One that is said to be "better than" both the big names is the L'Oréal Professionnel Absolut Repair Molecular Leave-In Hair Mask. With over 2,000 reviews on Amazon, this treatment is said to "repair two years of damage in just one use."
It's also currently enjoying a 25 percent discount with the delivery firm, as a 100ml bottle is now £23.30, down from £31. Considering rival retailer Boots still stocks it at full price, this is a deal you won't want to miss.
L'Oreal Paris' Molecular Leave-in Hair Mask works to restore strength and elasticity to your hair by rebuilding your mane's molecular structure. It does so by injecting a peptides bonder and five amino acids into the fibre of your hair, leaving it stronger, healthier and shinier.
It also won't weigh your hair down, as it boasts a "lightweight" and "fast absorbing" texture. The results apparently speak for themselves, as the haircare firm says that it can provide up to 97 percent more strength.
Your don't need to worry about any further damage being caused on your delicate mane during styling, as the treatment also provides heat protection up to 230C.
Singled out as an 'Amazon Choice' product with a 4.5 rating, impressed beauty fans have raved over the Absolut Repair Molecular Leave-In Hair Mask, praising it as a "game changer" that fixed their hair in "one application."

Beauty deal of the week
An electric toothbrush can completely overhaul your cleaning routine - but they can often be pricey.
If you're looking to buy one, then don't worry about breaking the bank, as we have spotted one deal you'll want to know about. It's on the Oral-B Genius X Rose Gold Electric Toothbrush that is now hundreds of pounds cheaper at Boots.
The health and beauty firm has reduced the cost of this "game changing" toothbrush, which has been designed by Braun, from £300 to just £64.99 - saving a staggering £235.01 off the overall RRP.
Designed to make your cleaning routine "easier than ever", this toothbrush is powered by artificial intelligence to provide a dentist-recommended clean. Analysing your brushing style, it ensures you don't miss a spot, with some users saying it leaves their teeth "super clean."
It also uses a combination of smart features such as a new revolutionary gum guard technology, 360 SmartRing and Pressure Control to alert you, reduce speed when you brush too hard and tell you where you overbrush for a gentler routine.
There's six different cleaning modes to choose from - daily clean, pro clean, sensitive, whitening, gum care and tongue cleaning. A timer makes sure you are cleaning your teeth for the recommended two minutes, while the lithium-ion battery provides up to two weeks worth of charge.
Boasting an incredible 4.8 rating based and over 1,300 five-star reviews on the Boots website, the Oral-B Genius X Electric Toothbrush is certainly popular, as shoppers have branded it a "game-changer" for providing a "deep clean" that is similar to a trip to the dentist.
