Kristin Ess Amethyst Temporary Tint Review
February 4, 2019
So, I was in Target and got suckered into trying something new. I use the Kristin Ess "The One Purple Shampoo" and love it, but I haven't tried any of her other products. I have seen their temporary rose gold hair tint each time I've visited and, as much as I would love to try it, I never grabbed it. Well, this weekend I saw that she added a new product and I fell for it. The range now includes an Amethyst Temporary Tint and I was intrigued. I already use the purple shampoo to get an ashier tone to my blonde, so what would adding a little lavender do? I wanted to see! Markiesha-- don't look! You did an amazing job with my Mushroom Brunette and I don't want you to see that I used an at home product!
On the website the product is advertised as:
I decided that Saturday would be the night to try this out since I was going out with some of my favorite ladies. I didn't want to go too bold with the color starting off, so I followed the instructions for a more "pastel" result. I shampooed my hair using their purple shampoo like I normally would in the hopes of getting the best ash blonde tone that I could prior to using the tint. After that I used a dry washcloth to get a lot of the moisture out of my hair. I combed through my hair to make sure that tangles were out before spraying the tint on my hair. The bottle instructs you to spray 4-6" inches away from the hair, so I did just that. I sprayed and saturated my hair and let it stand for 2 mins. After rinsing the tint out I conditioned using John Frieda Sheer Blonde Color Renew Tone Restoring Conditioner. When I got out of the shower I towel dried my hair, used a heat protectant and dried my hair as usual.
The results were subtle, but I am ok with that! I knew I didn't want a drastic change, so I am happy that I went the lighter route this time. I love the tone and would happily try this again and follow the instructions for a darker lavender result.
After this experience I am very tempted to try the Rose Gold tint. Have you ever tried a temporary hair tint? I would love to hear stories of your experience! Comment below and tell me all about it!

AMETHYSTTEMPORARY TINT
I’m always looking for ways to play with pastel tones in the hair. This is the first ever in-shower watercolor that creates a temporary tone on wet hair, and rinses out in 2-4 washes, depending on the porosity of your hair. The intensity is up to you — apply to wet hair for a pastel tone that washes out quicker, or apply to dry hair for a more intense tone that lasts longer. The color is most visible on pre-lightened/highlighted or blonde hair.
