Here at Well+Good, there’s nothing we love more than working smarter, not harder. When it comes to beauty products? Even better. When it comes to saving money on said beauty products?! Even best.
This is exactly why we’re taking a moment to share the sneaky way to save big on one of hair stylists’ favorite multi-taskers: Bumble and Bumble Hairdresser Invisible Oil Demi Primer Duo ($34). Not only is this primer the ultimate “work smarter, not harder” hair product you *need* in your styling quiver, but it’s also packaged as a 2-for-1 deal over at QVC right now, making it high time to stock up.

If you’re not familiar with this protective primer, know that it’s more than just a pre-styling essential—it’s a secret weapon for achieving salon-worthy hair right in the comfort of your own home. Coco Santiago, a stylist with Bumble and Bumble, explains its magic comes from a curated blend of lightweight oils—the same blend that makes up the brand’s original Hairdresser Invisible Oil ($24). Together, these oils (grapeseed oil, sweet almond oil, coconut oil, safflower seed oil, macadamia nut oil, and argan oil) prep and protect hair like a coat of shining armor, keeping strands safe and strong whilst battling the heat of flat irons and blow dryers.
“The oils help provide conditioning, moisture, nourishment, softening, and smoothing to hair. It’s a real multitasker,” Santiago says. “It can be used as a leave-in treatment and has heat protection for when you are using hot tools… I love the healthy soft shine it leaves after a blow-dry.”
As a leave-in treatment, its formula is designed to nourish and strengthen your strands from root to tip, giving you that just-stepped-out-of-the-salon bounce and vitality. “You can cocktail with any of the blow-dry stylers such as the classic Bb. Thickening Spray ($30), which is known for providing a big, bouncy, shiny blow dry,” says Santiago. “The primer applied first will only enhance the luster and softness. It also pairs well with any of our blow-dry creams… I like the Bb. All-Style Blow Dry Cream ($34) for those who need a little extra oomph and want their blowout to last several days.”

As for frizz, it tames even the most rebellious flyaways and leaves your mane effortlessly sleek and polished. (A must for these muggy, end-of-summer days when the humidity just won’t quit.) The same goes for stubborn knots and tangles. Spray it on washed, towel-dried hair after your shower and bid farewell to endless battles with your hairbrush; the formula works its magic to gently unravel knots, saving you (and your scalp!) time and patience.
Sold? We thought so, which is why you should take advantage of QVC’s deal now before units all sell out. Currently, you can get two 4.5 oz. bottles of Bumble and Bumble Hairdresser Invisible Oil Demi Primer Duo for the price of one full-size (8.5 oz.) bottle. While we wish it was two full-sized bottles (sigh), it’s still a great deal—normally, one 4.5 oz. bottle costs $22 alone. Not to mention, the smaller bottles are travel-friendly, so you won’t get them flagged by TSA on your next vacation. Like we said—work smarter, not harder ;).
