Bottom line 

This intensive leave-in conditioner is curly girl method approved, so is suitable for those with both wavy and curly hair. It’s cruelty-free, vegetarian and vegan society approved and is made of 97% natural ingredients. These include hydrating shea butter and argan oil, which are safe to use on coloured hair without stripping the colour out. This spray is a great multitasker, whilst repairing your hair it also protects it from further damage with thermal protection. Allowing you to save time and have detangling, strengthening and protection all in one product! Some drugs may have Authority Required (Streamlined) status which does not require an explicit approval from Medicare, instead the doctor can use the Authority code found in the published Schedule for a given drug/indication. This all-in-one has a milky texture and comes in a convenient spray bottle, making it perfect for on-the-go use or when you’re in a rush. It can be applied to damp or dry hair and has a clean and refreshing scent, which will work for you if you aren’t a fan of florals. Pros:

Similar to Vitapointe, the product contains no sulphates or silicones that coat your hair without actually doing anything more. The ingredients work to treat and repair dry and damaged hair by trapping moisture within the hair shaft and increasing elasticity, meaning less breakage when brushing. Some PBS medications are restricted and require prior approval from Medicare before a doctor is able to prescribe them on the PBS. This prior approval to prescribe grants the doctor the Authority to prescribe the desired medicine and have it funded under the PBS. Finally, the product contains antioxidants that work to protect the hair from environmental stressors, such as the wind or pollution, protecting it against further damage. The conditioner actually works to keep the moisture within your hair shaft due to the quinoa extract and natural sugars that act as a dehydration shield.Prescriptions must be written on an Authority Prescription Form, and the approval number must be noted on the prescription. Pharmacists cannot dispense the item as a pharmaceutical benefit unless it has been approved by Medicare Australia (indicated by the presence of the approval number). Has a strong smell, most people have said it is pleasant, but it may be overwhelming for sensitive noses Bear in mind that the Vitapointe Creme now available in the USA has different ingredients and a different scent. The no haircut cream by L’oreal Elvive has got cult status with beauty influencers online. This particular leave-in is designed for long, damaged hair in mind, meaning it’s lightweight and won’t make your hair look flat and lifeless like some leave-ins can do. It aims to reduce damage from styling, dyeing and brushing.

Authority to prescribe an Authority medicine is granted for specific indications and/or for certain patient circumstances. Authority may be obtained by telephone to Medicare Australia (known as "phone approval") or in writing from an authorised delegate of the Minister for Health. This leave-in also contains rosehip oil and Keratin protein, further working to repair the hair strand and repair damage caused from heat, colour or styling. Much like Vitapointe, the formula works to fight frizz with conditioning properties, such as Vitamin E and Coconut water. Vitapointe Creme was traditionally an affordable hair treatment, but because it’s been discontinued, demand has increased in the UK. This has pushed the prices up, and the ones you find for sale are ridiculously expensive. If you can get your hands on a pot of Vitapointe Creme, bear in mind that it may have expired.Thankfully, Boots and Superdrug sell an extensive range of leave-in conditioning products (such as those mentioned in the previous section). You will undoubtedly find a suitable alternative. Conclusion
