The hair oil behind Salma Hayek’s shiny Oscars locks is less than $20 on Amazon
The red carpet season may wrap up tonight, but the 95th Academy Awards red carpet may take the cake for the awards show with the most glamorous beauty moments ever. And one of our favorite drool-worthy hair and makeup looks has to be Salma Hayek’s. While the actress sizzled in a bold orange sequin Gucci gown, she kept things more low-key and approachable with her beauty look with bronzy makeup from Makeup by Mario and gorgeous tousled waves that were achieved with affordable hair products from Verb. Luckily for you, the hair oil behind her shiny, frizz-free strands is so budget-friendly, it can be yours for less than $20 on Amazon.
Salma’s hairstylist, Jennifer Yepez, shared a behind-the-scenes look at all the products that she used on the A-lister’s hair on her Instagram Stories, writing she was “getting Salma Hayak Oscar ready with Verb products.” She used a variety of items from the affordable brand including their leave-in mist, texture powder and hydrating masque but the one item that really stood out to us was Verb’s Ghost Oil, especially after learning the nourishing treatment has nearly 6,000 perfect five-star ratings on Amazon!
The multitasking beauty essential enhances shine by up to 75%, fights frizz and flyaways, and hydrates hair all at the same time. The lightweight oil won’t weigh your hair down (as proven by Salma’s voluminous ‘do) and it’s free from any harmful sulfates and parabens, so you can feel good about putting it on your hair.
One shopper called it a “holy grail hair product” before adding “This stuff is amazing. I heard good things, but I didn’t expect what I got. My hair is frizzy and dry and color-damaged near the bottom. I used one pump and it looked like normal hair. It’s shiny without being oily looking, and the effect seems to last beyond the initial application.”
“This is the best hair oil ever! It’s SO lightweight and leaves my wavy/color-treated hair smooth and shiny. I couldn’t recommend this product more, it’s awesome,” raved another.
While a third wrote: “I honestly had no idea this product would suit my needs. I have oily hair anyways so applying more oil to it did not make any sense. My hair was wiry and oily so the worst combination…. [This] instantly softens it and makes my hair look model-ready. I have these natural highlights all over and these crazy curls when I use this product. My hair is not oily and the smell is great. Complete transformation.”
A beauty product with this many rave reviews and an A-list endorsement is hard to find but luckily this one is a verified steal for the price of $18. Snag a bottle for yourself below!
