Clairol Professional Kaleidocolors Powder Lightener — Beige/Neutral 10-Min Lift, Conditioning with Aloe & Soy

Clairol Professional Kaleidocolors Powder Lightener lifts hair up to 5 levels while depositing neutral/beige tonality in a single 10-minute step.

Designed for stylists and color-savvy individuals, this powder lightener simplifies highlighting and special-effects techniques by combining lift and tone.

Enriched with aloe vera and a conditioning Soy Complex, it focuses on manageable application and luminous finish for shades from dark brown through light blonde.

How quickly will Kaleidocolors lighten and tone my hair?

• Average lift: up to 5 levels on suitable hair
• One-step: lightening and toning in the same application
• Typical processing: around 10 minutes, adjusted per hair porosity
