Shimmer Lights Violet Toning Mask | Neutralizing Brassy Tones with Refreshing Blonde Hair Results

Clairol Shimmer Lights Purple Shampoo is the classic go-to for blondes, silver strands, or bleached hair that needs a quick tone reset. If your blonde is leaning yellow and you’re dreaming of cool, clean vibes, this violet warrior steps in and shines. 🌈 Tone-Correcting Formula That Shows Up: Packed with deep purple pigments, it neutralizes brass and brings back that salon-fresh ash tone. Great for platinum, balayage, or gray hair—especially between toning sessions. 🧴 Cleans & Brightens Without Stripping: While it’s technically a shampoo, it cleans gently and gives a subtle refresh. Best when used sparingly—once or twice a week—to keep brass at bay without drying out strands. 💜 Signature Grape Scent & Retro Glam Bottle: The scent is bold—like grape soda meets salon chic. And the packaging? Iconic purple that’s instantly recognizable in any shower caddy. 🕐 Quick Results That Can Go Too Far: Leave it on too long and you might get lavender tinges—so monitor your timing. 2–5 minutes usually does the trick for a soft, toned refresh without turning your hair violet. 💡 Works Best with a Moisturizing Conditioner: Since purple shampoo can be a tad drying, follow with a hydrating mask or conditioner to lock in shine and softness. 🌟 Final Blonde Boost: If your blonde’s feeling brassy and needs a tone rescue, Clairol Shimmer Lights Purple Shampoo delivers violet magic in a bottle. It’s bold, effective, and always ready to bring your blonde back to brilliance.

This product worked well. The appearance is purple and once applied it is purple on your hair but leave it on and watch the magic! Makes sure to rinse it well!!! I don’t think it did anything to moisturize my hair but it definitely takes the brassy tones out. The bottle size gives you many uses. I have short hair so I get at least ten uses from it. It doesn’t provide any frizz control but a good conditioner goes a long way. I have dry color treated post menopausal hair and it doesn’t provide any the trick.

This works great! And quite frankly travels well lol. It gave me the color I was supposed to have to begin with and left my hair, soft and manageable and Shiny and I still have plenty to continue to use it.

helps the color but doesn't really moisturize very well

Definitely a great toner. I wish I took a before pic so you could see the difference but I just bleached my roots and the top part of my hair was super brassy. Much darker/more orange than it is on the pic. I had to wash it out a second time with hot water, because my hair was definitely stained with the purple but that's all it took, so just be careful don't leave it on too long and wash it out with hot water if it's stained with the toner. Will be buying again for sure.

It's too bad that I like the results, because I can't stand the unrelenting fragrance. If you are sensitive to fragrances, you may want to skip this product. I have colored hair (use use level 8, light ash blonde) and in between colorings it tends to get a little brassy. I used this mask for the recommended 5 minutes, and was pleased with the results. Color was nice, and hair was soft, but I just couldn't get past the oppressive everlasting fragrance. It actually gave me a headache...even after 6 hours. It just stays and stays, and was still there when I woke up the next morning. Can't wait to wash it out.

Works well! I'm a natural brunette. I've been coloring my hair blonde for years. I haven't colored my hair in months until recently. So, I had a decent amount of brunette back. I don't bleach my hair due it making my hair dry and brittle. I bought blonde hair dye and purchased this mask to use as a toner. I'm glad I did. After coloring my brunette hair blonde, as expected my hair was orange (brass) I used this mask immediately after coloring, I no longer have any brass in my hair After ONE use! It does exactly what it says it does. I will be purchasing this every time I color my hair. The directions say to leave it in for 5 minutes. I am happy with the results. I highly recommend this. Especially if you're like me and don't want to use harsh bleach in your hair. I should have took before and after pictures. I was very surprised it worked so well. I have tried other products and got not so good results. This will definitely be my go to product from now on.... I love that it made my hair feel so soft and hydrated afterwards as well. I usually have tangles even after using most conditioners, it wasn't tangled at all after using this. It has a mild scent but a pleasant one. Update.. I have used this for a second time and my hair is even lighter. (Which was what I wanted) I am now purchasing the bigger bottle for future use.

My hair was like a brass orange and this helped make it blonde. The secret is wet your hair then add the packet on and rub it like a foam . That keeps the purple to hook on your hair . Rub it till you dont see the purple. Leave it on less than 5 minutes. Like 3 . Then it will work. Good luck .. Melissa from California .update .. I had to color my.dark hair again to blonde. It came out so yellowish orange. I used this and left.on 5 minutes. It looks like your hair will be a ashy Grey when its on and turning. Then after 5 minutes. I was shocked . My yellow orange hair is gone. Just like in the past. So happy and highly recommend.. thanks light blonde is blonde now .

Absolutely amazing product! It helps if you want to get rid of orange tone.

Buen producto

Dark color

It's still a work in progress post a too blonde/ bad home air dye experience 🤦‍♀️... I have purchased so many anti brass / conditioner treatments over the years and this is the BEST! The price is incredible. I put it on dry hair every 3 days for 10 minutes then wash... perfect thank you !

What's not to like. Gentle scent, nice and dark purple and easy on the scalp. Finishing with this is fantastic for drier and brittle hair. Put it on when hair is nice and warm. Let it work. Rinse with warmer water but only half rinse. That warmer water allows the hydrating components to enter your hair better. Then, rinse finally. Seal with cooler water if you can. This product works excellent for non professional... professional toning. Continued use is optimal. Excellent non-invasive brassy "aid".
