Early verdict · Few reviews so far

What the gurus are saying

Two or three drops of this silicone-based oil deliver glossy, manageable hair without the heavy feel, making the high price surprisingly efficient. It acts as a heat protectant with UV filters for color-treated hair. The scent is strong and some experts wish for fragrance-free, but those who like it find it pleasant. Experts suggest spreading a small amount in your palms, then raking through with fingertips to control how much you use.

"I really like their hair oil. The Oribe Gold Lust Hair Oil is amazing."
All 6 takes from Dr Dray
Trying Isntree Chestnut AHA | Skincare Vlog
"This Oribe Gold Lust Nourishing Hair Oil, you only need a little bit of this, it goes a long way. I wish this came in a fragrance free version because it does have a scent. I like the scent, but it is [...] going to be a problem if you're allergic."
Skincare Shopping At Ebisu Life Store & Neiman Marcus
"I really like this Oribe Gold Lust Nourishing Hair Oil."
Sephora Savings Event 2023 - Skincare Products Worth Buying
"I just put this to my ends. It contains silicone so that it helps with slip, manageability, gloss and shine. In contrast to the styling cream which kind of smooths, softens and gives the hair a fluffy, voluminous look, this is more sleek and shiny and glossy and smooth. So I really love this product as well. It has fragrance, a nice scent, and I buy the little bottle because you really don't need very much."
Using A Clay Mask For Oily Skin
"This is basically a silicone anti-frizz luster adder if you will. I just like to put a couple of pumps on my ends. I just get the little travel size because it is expensive and you don't end up needing to use much, and I don't use it every day anyway."
Drugstore Shopping And Trying NEW Skincare
"I really like their hair oil. The Oribe Gold Lust Hair Oil is amazing."
BEST HAIR CARE OF 2022 🏆 Dermatologist @DrDrayzday
"But [...] I actually really like it. It's basically perfume for your hair, a silicone formula that acts as a heat protectant, so it makes the hair glossy and manageable without being oily. [...] I love the scent, [...] it leaves the hair smelling nice without creating a cloud of fragrance around you. [...] It's expensive but you only need a small amount, [...] two or three drops."

"I guess you guys are as big a fans of Oribe as I am. It's also nice when you have hair products kind of all in the same family just from a scent perspective. You're not mixing a whole bunch of different fragrances. With hair oil, a little bit goes a very long way. I like to actually spread it into my palms and really evenly distribute it, and then I will just rake with my fingertips first so I don't put too much on. [...] It shines things up a bit and takes away some of the frizz."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
