Garnier Nutrisse Nourishing Hair Color Creme, 80 Medium Natural Blonde (Butternut)

I am reviewing the newest formula of Nutrisse, which is thicker, and develops green in the bottle (I guess because of the avocado in the formula?). I used "Brown Sugar-Light Golden Brown" in the previous formula as well, and IMO the color came out the same. There are terrible reviews on Garnier's site, stating that the new formula is lighter and more orange, but that didn't happen to me (YMMV). The issue people may be having, is that the picture of the model on the box is nothing like the actual color results. This shade always came out a natural light auburn on me, which is why I love it, and it does with the new formula as well. It's not light golden brown , it's light golden auburn. The formula is definitely thicker....maybe too thick (I actually squirted a tiny bit of shampoo in the bottle to make it more runny), however the previous formula did drip too much. I didn't drip a single drop of this new formula! The instructions state to leave on for 30 minutes now, instead of 25, but I left it on for 25 minutes. I did 25 minutes on my mids and ends, and the last 15 minutes on my roots (to avoid hot roots), and my results were even and perfect! I don't have gray to color, but I am coloring over previously stripped/blonde ends, that don't hold color well, and Nutrisse has done the best job so far giving me even results.

I've had my hair colored a lot over the past 5 years since I started getting gray hair. My hair always feels so dry for weeks after. I switched to this and my hair is so much softer than after my Salon Color Treatments. Also, this is my favorite color because it brings out my light auburn hues in my hair. I actually buy this color and have my stylist put it in.
