Key Ingredient
Aloe Vera
Aloe vera comes from the cactus-like plant of the same name, which secretes a gel-like substance. Naturally hydrating and cooling, it soothes sensitive skin and helps slow the signs of aging while its nourishing blend of vitamins A, C, and E keeps hair strong.

HOW TO START A PURE CLEAN HAIR ROUTINE
Refresh. Hydrate. Define. The Garnier Fructis Pure Clean collection harnesses the power of Aloe Extract and Vitamins B3 & B6 to gently cleanse, condition, and style all hair types — with zero silicones, parabens, or compromise.
When: Use the Pure Clean Shampoo and Conditioner as often as needed — the gentle, silicone-free formula suits all hair types and won't strip natural oils. Follow with the Detangler on damp hair after every wash for knot-free, manageable results.
Tips for you: Massage shampoo into your scalp for 1–2 minutes to fully activate Aloe Extract and Vitamins B3 & B6 for a deeper cleanse. Apply Detangler section by section from ends to roots — no rinsing needed. Let hair air dry for best lightweight results.
1 CLEANSE

Gently purifies hair and scalp with Aloe Extract and Vitamins B3 & B6 — removing residue and buildup without stripping natural oils.

Finish your routine your way — choose the Pure Clean Gel for defined, long-lasting hold, or the Pure Clean Paste for flexible, natural-finish texture. Both are made with plant-derived Acacia Gum and Aloe Extract for clean performance with no flaking, no stickiness, no compromise.
When: Style with Gel or Paste after your wash routine — or anytime you want to refresh your look. Apply to damp hair for stronger hold and definition, or to dry hair for added texture and a natural, workable finish. Use as needed, any day of the week.
Tips for you: For best results, start with a small amount — you can always add more. Gel works best applied to soaking wet or damp hair combed through from roots to ends. Paste performs best on dry or slightly damp hair — warm it between your palms first to activate and evenly distribute.

Game Changing
7 years ago
I don't use this as much on dry hair, but rather wet hair prior to blow drying. I have shoulder length fine hair, but a lot of it. A quarter size of this rubbed between the palms of your hand to warm it and I rake it through my wet hair and try to get some down into the root area and then proceed to blow dry. I get nice full volume, a very defined and smooth blow-out and it holds my hair in place. Nothing worse than blow drying your hair into a nice style only to have it droop and go limp. Not with this paste. It holds the style in place. Not sticky, not crunchy or stiff. Just nice flexible hold which is what I need. And it adds a little shine and smells clean. This is game changing stuff.

Used to be a great product.......
2 years ago
The Pure Clean Finishing Paste used to be a great product. I've been using this product for more than 5 years and recently I've found it to be making my hair extremely oily. To my surprise, I hadn't realised the formula had changed. My daughter always picks this up for me from work, as she works in a big chain pharmacy that carries it, so I don't really pay much attention to it, I did notice the packaging had changed, but not the formula. Unfortunately, Garnier has added aloe to this product which makes it extremely greasy. I was in grocery store recently that still had some of the old product and I bought some, what a huge difference, no more oily hair. It seems everything these days has some type of oil or aloe added to it, not everyone wants or needs the added oil. Garnier, please remove the aloe as those of us with oily skin/hair don't need the added oils. Or make 2 products, one with aloe and one without. I'm extremely disappointed as I don't know what I will use to style my hair after the older version i bought recently runs out.

Holy Grail

I found my holy grail product. It gives me shape while I heat style and adds volume to my roots without making my scalp really greasy. I only wash my hair once a week and this doesn't add any extra filth to speed up the dirty hair process. I also love that there's little to no smell. I hate doing my hair and styling with a product that smells like sickly sugar. Please don't ever discontinue this!

Works and smells great!
7 years ago
This is a great product for me. I have short highlighted hair that sometimes looks dry and like a solid mass. This paste holds my hair in place with a nice piecey look and adds just a bit of shine. I use a very small dab, warm it in my palms, then rub it up through my hair and rake it down with my fingers to put everything into place. This evenly distributes the product so that my fine hair doesn't look greasy. I also love that this smells clean, not fruity or sweet. It washes out easily too, some pastes I have used left a residue that was hard to wash out.

This works for me!!

My granddaughter gave this to me to try, because I complained about all the other products I have used in the past that say they will add volume to my hair & keep the hair in place. So, I tried this, & I love it! It is not thick and pasty like other products like "Sexy Hair" Hard Up Gel & Powder Play, also " Tresemme Max Root Lifting cream". Sometimes, I have to rewash my hair because they make my hair look dirty,, But Fructis Finishing Paste is not thick when you warm it in your hands & apply it.. - feels like a lotion, & it also allows my hair to Shine!

I have had several bad experiences with gel. I am African - Caribbean - American! I wear my locked hair with pride. I like a tame look to my mane at times for professional appearances. I have my hair maintenaned by Loctician’s and they use a palm rolled and they use gel. Usually by the second or third day of stying I am ready to wash my hair because of the irritation caused by other gels. This is a gem! I’m keeping my fingers crossed and will comment again with an update. It works for us too!

Great Hair Paste
8 years ago
I like a very natural styled look for my hair. So I was a bit skeptical in using a Paste. I normally use a light mousse so my hair can still move. My hair is about two to three inches long on top, short in the back. I was pleasantly surprised with Garnier's paste. First and foremost, it is not greasy on your fingertips or hair. It runs through your hair easily and dries up fairly quickly. It left my hair style and in position without the greasy wetness of hair gel. It held all day at school and I didn't even have an issue with the back of my hair after driving home and my head being position on the head rest. Normally I would have redo my hair afterwards but it held wonderfully.

Holds well, isn't greasy
8 years ago
I'm a male with thick, 3-4 inch hair. This has become my go-to pomade for a handful of reasons. Unlike several others I've used in the past, this product doesn't give a greasy look or have a greasy feel. It's easy to apply, it holds well, and the smell very subtle and pleasing.
One application in the morning is plenty to last the whole day. I use it regularly and it has never caused any skin or scalp irritations. I would recommend this to others without hesitation.

Hold Without Smell, Flake, or Stick
8 years ago
I have been using a grade 10 extreme hold sport styling gel in the past to hold my hair in place. A lot of the gel products I've used have a strong smell that is not the most pleasant. They dry and hold your hair together in clumps. Towards the end of the day, they flake off from your scalp. After using this finishing paste for the few weeks, I'm switching to this natural hair glue for good.
The Garnier 99% natural Pure clean paste completes your look without all of the negatives. Only positive descriptions can come from a product such as this one. While it keeps your hair in place, it leaves it looking with a natural finish. The defining 24 hour hold doesn't leave you worrying about a mess from the top of your head. While some similar hair glue products might stay in your hair feeling sticky, this product keeps your hair smooth and soft. Plus, it doesn't take very much for it to get the job done.
An all around great product for your hair styling needs.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Great product for great style
8 years ago
I gave this product a try for three weeks and used pretty much all of it before reviewing so I think I can give it the full review. I very much enjoyed using this hair styling paste. It holds hair very well and has some serious staying power. It is a bit greasier than other pastes I have used but the major benefit vs other ones is that it stays much better in weather like rain. I had it in during a strong rainstorm and where most other pastes would have washed out, this one stayed strong. Definitely would recommend for those that want a paste with serious staying power.

Garnier Fructis Style Pure Clean Finishing Paste is a fantastic hair product, which holds hair naturally for the entirety of your busy day. Fantastic product that makes me feel good about putting it in my hair, and comes out when I need it to. Definitely recommend.

Hoped it would work but..

I love Garnier products but this one just didn’t work out for me. It smells great and holds well, but it made our hair look dirty and had a visible texture to it I didn’t like. I think I will just stick with their gels. It’s very sticky
No, I do not recommend this product.

Matte Finish With a Strong Hold
8 years ago
When I opened the container the smell was the first thing that turned me onto this finishing paste. It didn't smell like chemicals or like paste it was actually a pleasant smell. Once you dip your fingers in it's also surprising how silky it feels instead of being sticky and hard to distribute on your hands to get an even application. I usually use a blow dryer first to get volume and using this paste helps lock that volume in place while still being light but it has a hold that will alst all day. I would definitely recommend this ot anyone who wants to achieve style while maintaining a natural look.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Works like a charm!

I've been using Garnier Fructis Style Pure Clean Finishing Paste for about 3 weeks, and I love he feel of it. It holds my hair well, even with my daily bike commute that requires strapping a helmet to my newly combed hair each morning. A quick re-comb after I get to work, and my hair stays nice and put for the rest of the day. My previous hair product was a gel, and I love that this paste leaves my hair both feeling and looking more natural. I'll be sticking with this new product!

My husband loves the way this product works. Easy to use, great scent and cleans easily from his hands. His hair looks great all day long! I'm glad that I can pick up more at my local Walmart when he's finished this tub. I believe I also seen it at Walgreen's. My daughter has played with it a bit to "train" her new hairstyle as well. It's a bit more work for her, but she seems to like it as well.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Middle of the road product

This product is one of those that is just ok. It isn’t great, but will do in a pinch. I have relatively short hair and expected it to have more hold than what it did. It just wouldn’t hold my hair in place. If you are looking for a budget friendly paste, than this would work for you. Otherwise, spend a few more dollars and get a more superior product.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Great product from a trusted brand.

I have used Garnier products in the past and have been satisfied with them. I began using this product to determine if it would be a good alternative to products I already use. My hair is very thick and after a few weeks of use I can say that it has its ups and downs. The issue that I have with this product may be entirely my fault. The one that I got has a 3 out of 5 for hold. My hair is pretty thick and when it gets a little longer this product is not able to hold it very well. That could be my fault as I have not tried the strong version yet. I likely will though because it doesn't make my hair feel gross and it also smells amazing. My wife loves both of those things about it as well. I cannot give a 5 out of 5 until I try the stronger version myself. No matter what even if it doesnt hold it does make my hair look considerably better than if I do not put anything in it at all. The product label states 24 hour definition and I will attest to that statement.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Not for me....
8 years ago
I think this was an okay product. If I was in a store purchasing products, this is something that I’d more likely overlook. This product doesn’t exactly say what it’s for. Upon getting the product I thought it was edge control mainly based off the size of the container. So i put some on, yup definitely not what that’s for. So on my wash day I decide to use it as a curl creme. I gave some of my hair some definition and it did hold for the entire day with some raw shea butter as my oil. Maybe this product would work on a different type. I am not sure, but for what it’s worth i’ll probably use it again but it will not be my first choice.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Pure ckean finishing paste
8 years ago
I think this worked very good initially. But after a while my hair became very frizzy. I do not believe this is due to the product itself but most likely just my hair. It applied very smoothly, I did not find it to be sticky at all. I only use a little at a time about a nickel size amount. It did last me all day with no flaking or stiffness, and I did like that it was remoldable throughout the day. Overall I liked it very much. My only downside was how it made my hair frizzy after a while of application.

Garnier Fructis Finishing Paste
8 years ago
This product is great for accentuating layers in your hair and holding hairstyles in place. I used it with both straight hair and curls and it worked wonders for me! I found that it was easier to rub it between my palms for a few seconds and then apply it to my hair and opposed to just rubbing it on my hair immediately. The only thing that was an issue for me is that it's kind of thick and weighed my hair down so I would have to wash my hair after every use, which is not ideal for me. Overall, the product was great and I definitely would recommend this to others
Yes, I recommend this product.

Smooth Natural Hold
8 years ago
Garnier Fructis has done it again. This Natural, Pure Clean, Finishing Paste is a great product providing a light, non-stiff/sticky hold and washes out easily. Although it leaves a great hold, if your play with your hair, throughout the day, you can tell product is in your hair to the touch.
I have used this product on various lengths of hair and it works great regardless. This Natural Finishing Paste doesn’t leave your hair feeling greasy or weighed down and provides a dry natural finish. I use this product as a “primer” and follow it up with a second product to achieve a natural shine, as I prefer that look, although this is not necessary and is only a personal preference. Way to go Garnier; another success to your product line!!!!
Yes, I recommend this product.
