I'm hoping the one with cones was the old formula, and the new one is the cone free version. No proof either way yet, so keep an eye on the ingredients list, everybody!

Those ingredients don't seem too delish to me. :dontknow:
Whew! Do my fingers hurt. So, I don't know why Dollar Tree would suddenly carry L'Oreal hair products. They don't sell discontinued products, only new or 'improved' products. Are these ingredients the same as any bottles some of you have now? If not, you better stock up. Mama done changed her recipe! :disgust:
Edit: Oh, and I bought this one earlier this week/late last week. So this is very new.
TWA...for now...

I just hope it was the leave-in and not enough gel today that has made my hair so overly soft or I won't be able to use it very often.

Yeah, at CVS last night, they had the 2 pink bottles with the a-cone that you mentioned, but they also had plenty of the one for med/long hair that's wavy/curly and no cones. I just checked the bottle I bought last night to make sure. But they are all pink, so everyone should definitely read the bottle before picking one up.

Does anyone know if the other one that formerly didn't have any cones (glossy volume, I think) is remaining that way or not?

That's a GREAT product. I fifnd myself inny-minny-miny-moying that and my very expensive products.
So the one chose really works? I should try it out and you should try the Vive Pro Hydra out too!

It's quite possible there might be a phase out. My CVS tends to be way behind getting the newer stuff in. They seem to hold onto the older stuff longer than some of the other stores which could be why there was plenty of the wavy/curly condish on the shelves. If I keep liking this one, I might have to go buy out their stock.

NO KIDDING!! :banghead:
And kurlygurly, the reason I put back the hydra gloss condish is because it has amodimethicone in it. That one ingredient is the whole reason a bunch of us are starting to worry, because it seems like they might be reformulating and changing the one we all love so much, which is the nutri gloss for curly hair. Amodimethicone is a silicone, and if you're not clarifying (like many of us who no longer use shampoo), then it can build up on your hair and make it gross and lifeless. Although it's supposed to be a silicone that doesn't build up by it's chemical composition and properties, a lot of us just steer clear because it's not water soluble.
Feral, I've actually never seen a masque of this before here in the US. I guess I'll have to look more carefully next time I go shopping!!

I think the masque in the UK is the same as your conditioner in the US... I think.
