Davines NOUNOU Oil

The Moda Team Review: The Finish That Makes Nourished Hair Look Nourished
The NOUNOU Oil is the final step in the NOUNOU routine — the product that takes everything the shampoo and conditioner have done structurally and translates it into a visible, tactile finish. Applied to damp or dry hair, it delivers the kind of luminous, smooth, polished result that makes processed hair look genuinely healthy rather than just managed. The Lupin Extract proteins work to strengthen and repair the hair fibre on contact; the oil's film-forming action creates a protective barrier that makes the hair smoother and more resilient with every use.
What makes this oil particularly effective for processed hair — bleached, coloured, repeatedly heat-styled — is that it does not just coat the surface. The combination of strengthening proteins and moisture-locking polysaccharides from the Lupin Extract means the oil works at the fibre level while the carrier oils provide the surface finish. Heat protection to 230°C means it can go in before blow-drying or before a straightener. The result from the full NOUNOU routine — shampoo, conditioner and oil — is up to 12x shinier and up to 5x stronger hair after one use. Vegan.
Key Active Ingredient
Regenerative Organic Certified™ Lupin Extract — sourced from Mr. Giuseppe Pellegrino's farm in Cutrofiano, Lecce, Italy. Contains proteins that strengthen and repair the hair fibre; polysaccharides lock in moisture and form a protective barrier; fatty acids reduce breakage and improve resilience. Heat protection up to 230°C. Full NOUNOU routine efficacy: up to 12x shinier, up to 5x stronger after one use. Vegan formula.
Moda Pro Tip
Apply to towel-dried hair before blow-drying for maximum heat protection and even distribution — damp hair carries the oil through the lengths more evenly than dry hair. Warm 2–3 drops between palms first to help it spread. On very fine or low-density hair, concentrate on the ends and keep away from the scalp. On dry hair post-blowout, 1–2 drops pressed through the lengths adds finishing shine without reloading the hair.
How To Use
- After washing with NOUNOU Shampoo and conditioning with NOUNOU Conditioner, gently towel-dry hair.
- Warm 2–3 drops between palms.
- Apply through mid-lengths and ends — do not rinse out.
- Blow-dry or air-dry. Heat protection active up to 230°C.
- On dry hair: 1–2 drops pressed through lengths for finishing shine.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Davines NOUNOU Oil do for processed or bleached hair?
Yes — it strengthens the hair fibre with Lupin Extract proteins, locks in moisture with polysaccharides, adds a protective barrier that makes hair smoother and more resilient with every use, and delivers luminous shine. Combined with the NOUNOU Shampoo and Conditioner, it delivers up to 12x shinier and 5x stronger hair after one use.
Does Davines NOUNOU Oil provide heat protection for blow-drying?
Yes — it provides heat protection up to 230°C. Apply to towel-dried hair before blow-drying and do not rinse out. It can also be used before a flat iron or curling iron for the same heat protection benefit.
Will Davines NOUNOU Oil make hair look greasy or weighed down?
No — the formula is a lightweight finishing oil that absorbs without leaving a heavy residue. Start with 2–3 drops and warm between palms before applying. On fine hair, 1–2 drops through the ends is sufficient.
Is Davines NOUNOU Oil applied to wet or dry hair?
Yes — it works on both. Applied to towel-dried hair before blow-drying, it provides heat protection and the most even distribution. Applied to dry hair after styling, it adds finishing shine and smoothness. Both are correct application methods.
Is Davines NOUNOU Oil suitable for colour-treated processed hair?
Yes — it is colour-safe and designed specifically for chemically processed hair. The Lupin Extract's strengthening proteins and protective barrier action are particularly beneficial for hair that has been lightened or coloured, which tends to be structurally more fragile and in need of surface protection.
