I did it! I grabbed up the Ouai St. Barts Detangling and Frizz Fighting Leave In Conditioner and I regret nothing. Well, technically, beauty confession, I purchased two bottles and I was tempted to do three. The temptation was there, people. But I was good and I went for two and there was some logical part of me thinking, “but what if Trader Joe’s dupes it this Summer?” I mean, it’s possible right considering the Trader Joe’s Leave In Conditioner that launched had everyone screaming, “DUPE DUPE DUPE!” But I wasn’t chancing it! So, I grabbed two. Why it’s limited-edition is beyond me but I hope they change their mind and make it permanent!
I do like the original Quai Leave In Conditioner but I think the Trader Joe’s one is oddly better. That being said, Ouai St. Barts Detangling and Frizz Fighting Leave In Conditioner is next level thanks to the fragrance. It does in fact smell like Quai’s popular St Bart’s scent with notes of dragon fruit, orange blossom, tuberose, and Baltic amber. To me it smells like a warm, tropical island scent. It’s intoxicating and having my hair smell like that all day is absolutely fine by me.
This is the same cream conditioner formulas the original. It’s pretty thick but it does spray onto your hair in a finer mist. It detangles, smooths, hydrates, and protects hair with a heal level of 450 degrees. So if you’re blasting your hair with a drier this will protect your hair as you dry it.
The scent is beautiful as I said and it does linger nicely in the air. I tend to let my hair dry and it still smells amazing wet or dry! It’s a very pretty and addicting scent. I do think it’s slightly expensive at $30. I did use my Rouge discount which made it a little bit of a better price but at 4.7 oz I do wish it was a bit bigger for the price. I’m a little disappointed they are only doing it for a limited time. I rarely pick up extras of anything in the beauty world nowadays. It seems wasteful to grab two of anything however, I wasn’t willing to see this disappear and did pick up two. Let’s hope Trader Joe’s does a dupe of it so we can save a little money haha.
Either way, I don’t regret this purchase as a St Barts’ lover. I highly recommend grabbing it if you want your hair smelling beautiful all day!
