Pureology Instant Levitation Mist — Volumizing Root Lift Spray for Fine Color-Treated Hair, Weightless & Heat-Protecting

Pureology Instant Levitation Mist is a weightless, menthol-infused spray that gives fine, color-treated hair instant root lift, 24-hour volume, and heat protection without weighing strands down.

Designed for color-treated hair that needs body without stiffness, this lightweight mist combines Xylose and a signature aromatherapy blend of tuberose, almond milk, and cedarwood to add texture, shine, and thermal defense. The formula is 100% vegan, sulfate- and paraben-free, and includes Pureology’s Antifade Complex® to help preserve color vibrancy while sunflower seed UV filter and vitamin E help defend against environmental fading.

How quickly will I notice lift and how long does it last?

Lift is noticeable immediately after misting and styling; the product is engineered to create root lift and overall body without residue. Expect noticeable movement and texture that remains flexible rather than stiff for up to 24 hours under normal conditions.

• Instant root lift when misted at the scalp and blow-dried.
• 24 hours of weightless volume with movement maintained.
• Non-stiff finish for touchable, natural texture.

Can I use this on color-treated, fine hair without fading my dye?

Yes—this mist is specifically formulated for color-treated hair and includes Pureology’s Antifade Complex® to help protect color payoff. It’s free of sulfates and harsh ingredients that can strip dye, and contains UV-filtering sunflower seed oil components to reduce environmental fading.

• Antifade Complex® helps preserve salon color vibrancy.
• Sulfate- and paraben-free, safe for routine use on dyed hair.
• Sunflower seed UV filter and vitamin E offer extra environmental protection.

How should I apply the mist for best results—on wet or dry hair?

The mist works on both damp and dry hair: apply to damp hair for root lift and long-lasting volume before air- or blow-drying, or spritz on dry hair to refresh curls and add texture. Concentrate at the roots for lift, and spray throughout lengths for light texturizing and separation.

• Mist throughout damp hair, focusing on roots, then blow-dry or air-dry.
• Use sparingly on dry hair to revive shape or add texture between washes.
• Pair with Pure Volume or Hydrate Sheer ranges for customized results.

Does the product protect hair from heat styling tools?

Yes. The formula contains Xylose which helps coat and shield strands from styling heat while still preserving a soft, touchable finish. It’s intended to provide protection when using blow dryers, flat irons, and hot tools as part of a styling routine.

• Xylose helps form a protective layer against heat damage during styling.
• Adds glossy finish while maintaining hair movement and manageability.
• Works well as a prep step before thermal styling.

Who is this for: Pureology Instant Levitation Mist is aimed at people with fine to medium, color-treated hair who want noticeable, all-day lift and natural texture without stiffness. It’s ideal for anyone seeking vegan, salon-grade color protection plus lightweight thermal defense—especially those who style with heat and want a touchable, long-lasting finish.
