Kao THE ANSWER EX Care & Coat Oil in an 80 ml pump bottle. It is applied to towel-dried hair before blow-drying, and Kao says it can also be used for morning styling.

It contains coating ingredients (isostearyl isostearate, lanolin acid, olive fruit oil) and moisturising jojoba, argan, camellia and shea oils. The maker states that it protects against damage from heat and friction and against frizz caused by UV, high humidity and dryness. It is formulated to feel less sticky, with a moist finish as Kao classifies it. Bergamot and daphne scent.
