NUTRISSE ULTRA COLOR R3 - Light Intense Auburn

Garnier Nutrisse Ultra Color R3 - Light Intense Auburn (Red Hibiscus) is a permanent light auburn hair dye with warm, intense, and ultra-reflective tones. This auburn hair color is an excellent option as a red hair dye for dark hair* (natural hair between light brown and the darkest brown).

Powered by Nutrisse ColorBond technology, the non-drip creme formula deeply infuses each hair fiber with high-contrast dyes to reveal bold color that stays fade-resistant for up to 8 weeks. The included ampoule contains grape seed oil to nourish as your color and lock in this vibrant auburn hair dye shade. The silicon-free conditioner is enriched with five sustainably-sourced fruit oils (avocado, shea, olive, argan, and coconut) for an after-color treatment that leaves your hair silkier, more nourished, and twice as shiny as uncolored, unwashed hair.

* This light auburn hair dye shade is not recommended for hair that has previously been colored medium brown and darker. Results can be overly intense on bleached and highlighted hair. Use our Shade Selector Tool to find the shade for you!
