Benefits
- Hydrates and strengthens color treated hair
- Protects from styling heat up to 230°C
- Helps reduce fading and maintain color intensity
- Protects color following exposure to UV light
- Delivers up to 6.6 times shinier hair
Instrumental testing showed heat protection up to 230°C. Testing on color treated hair samples also recorded a statistically significant reduction in color change after UV exposure when MINU Milk was compared with untreated hair.
A separate instrumental test showed that hair treated with MINU Milk was up to 6.6 times shinier than untreated hair.
The complete MINU routine maintained color vibrancy for up to 4 weeks. This result applies when MINU Shampoo, Conditioner or Mask, and Milk are used together. The instrumental test compared the complete routine with a control shampoo without color protecting benefits after repeated washing or UV exposure.

Product Questions
Is MINU Milk a rinse out conditioner?
No. MINU Milk is a leave in treatment applied after washing. Within the complete MINU routine, it can be applied after MINU Conditioner or MINU Mask and should not be rinsed out.
Why does color treated hair need heat protection?
Heat from blow dryers, straighteners, and curling irons can open the hair cuticle and weaken the bond between the dye and the hair, allowing color to fade more quickly. MINU Milk provides heat protection up to 230°C (446°F), helping protect hair during styling and reduce fading.
Does the 4 week color vibrancy result apply to MINU Milk alone?
No. The result applies when MINU Shampoo, Conditioner or Mask, and Milk are used together as the complete MINU routine.
How much MINU Milk should I apply?
Davines recommends 5 to 10 pumps as a general guide. The appropriate amount depends on hair length, density, thickness, and condition. Begin with the lower end of the recommended amount, distribute evenly, and add more only when needed.
