My Experience with Kevin Murphy Shimmer Shine Repairing Shine Mist:
Kevin Murphy is famous for their packaging where most of their bottles are shaped ergonomically different and eye catching. Shimmer shine comes in a uniquely shaped transparent plastic bottle with a pump and a plastic cap. The bottle bears all the product details and ingredient list. The packaging is all about “luxury” and “sophistication” and I love it. The bottle dispenses fine mist of the product which is very convenient to use and user-friendly.

Kevin Murphy’s Shimmer shine includes essential oils, bioflavonoids and vitamins which work to repair the hair while giving you a healthy shine without the oil slick look. The Shimmer Shine also contains amazing antioxidants which work by adding elasticity to the hair, nourishing each strand and restoring the hair surface. The product also contains Bamboo Extracts and Vitamins A, C and E. Bamboo contains mega amounts of silica which restore the effects of the hair leaving you with sleek, shiny hair that looks naturally healthy, lustrous and radiant.

The shimmer shine is more like a transparent liquid with a lot of shimmer and glitter. When you shake up this bottle, it sparkles with the teeniest bits of gold. The main instruction on the bottle is to the shake the bottle well before using it so that all the shimmer particles come up without staying at the bottom. The bottle looks like molten gold when shaken. These shimmers are not straight up glitter, they are so fine and dainty that it won’t show up chunky when sprayed on the hair.

I found that the Shimmer Shine definitely made my hair look shiny and healthy. You simply spray it onto wet hair and then dry and style as normal or you can spray it on dry hair also. I also didn’t notice the gold sparkles on my hair, it was subtle yet made my hair shiny and healthy. My hair is a normal to combination type and this shine doesn’t seem to make it greasy or heavy. The shine mist is exceptional, it makes your hair shiny, soft and healthy, but I am not sure about its repairing features. Another thing to note here is that this spray has a very strong perfume fragrance which will be noticeable by everyone around you. So, if you have sensitive nose, then this will be a problem since the fragrance is long-lasting.
