{"product_id":"davines-essential-momo-deeply-moisturizing-serum","title":"Davines Essential MOMO Deeply Moisturizing Serum","description":"\u003cp\u003eA shampoo and conditioner routine delivers hydration during the wash — but dry and dehydrated hair tends to lose that moisture quickly once it's exposed to heat, air, and the environment. The MOMO Serum is where the hydration work gets locked in: a leave-in treatment applied after washing that seals the moisture delivered during the wash routine and extends the softness, silkiness, and shine through styling and beyond. It's the step that separates hair that looks good in the shower from hair that looks good all day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eMOMO Serum is built around \u003cstrong\u003eRegenerative Organic Certified™ Apricot Extract (Prunus Armeniaca Fruit Extract)\u003c\/strong\u003e — sourced from Mr. Francesco Travaglini's farm in Larino, Campobasso, Italy. Apricot extract is naturally rich in polysaccharides and Vitamin A. The polysaccharides form a lightweight, flexible moisture-retention film on the hair shaft that locks in water delivered during the wash routine and slows its loss to evaporation during heat styling and drying. Vitamin A (in the form of beta-carotene and related carotenoids naturally occurring in apricot) supports the hair fibre's structural integrity and contributes to the soft, nourished feel that builds with repeated use. Davines' own Ingredient Highlight notes the apricot extract also supports the detangling action of the formula and improves manageability — making combing and styling easier on dry hair that typically has higher surface friction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBehentrimonium Methosulfate\u003c\/strong\u003e is the primary conditioning agent — a gentle, biodegradable cationic that provides the slip and cuticle-smoothing that allows the serum to glide through lengths without tugging. \u003cstrong\u003eOrbignya Oleifera Seed Oil (Babassu Oil)\u003c\/strong\u003e provides fast-absorbing lightweight emollient conditioning with high lauric acid content that penetrates rather than coats, delivering softness without residue. \u003cstrong\u003eSimmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil\u003c\/strong\u003e closely mimics natural sebum and absorbs without heaviness, adding elasticity and shine to dehydrated, dull ends. \u003cstrong\u003eHydroxypropyl Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride\u003c\/strong\u003e (conditioning guar) provides additional slip and surface smoothing. \u003cstrong\u003eSclerotium Gum\u003c\/strong\u003e adds a lightweight film-forming effect that helps the serum's active complex hold in place through styling. \u003cstrong\u003eBenzotriazolyl Dodecyl P-Cresol\u003c\/strong\u003e provides UV protection at the hair shaft level, shielding the moisture-restored hair from photo-oxidative damage. \u003cstrong\u003eGlycerin\u003c\/strong\u003e provides supplementary humectant moisture-binding at the surface level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eEfficacy verified through independent instrumental testing:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUp to 8.2x more hydrated hair\u003c\/strong\u003e — instrumental test on hair strands vs. untreated hair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUp to 3.4x shinier hair after one use\u003c\/strong\u003e — instrumental test on hair strands, gloss measurement vs. untreated hair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeat protection up to 230°C (446°F)\u003c\/strong\u003e — from blow-drying and hot tool styling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e97.8% naturally derived.
