Tweet My favourite fruit in the whole world (should I ever be hospitalised and you wish to send me a fruit basket) is Mango. The mango is glorious – no fruit is like it. Stuff your apples and grapes – the mango does it for me. Naturally I had to purchase this hair wax from Skinfood; I have tried their Olive Hair Oil and Lychee spray which were both good. The Mango Soft Cream Wax smells of Mango and protects {Read More}
Tweet I have never used anything from L’oreal Elvive’s Full Restore 5 range before, but guess what? The power of marketing means I already know what the range’s USP is! 5 problems, 1 solution. I only realised where I have heard this line before! Why aye! It’s Cheryl in her red dress, telling us about the Full Restore range! The 60 Second Saviour Intensive Conditioner is one of the newer products from the Full Restore range – it an intensive {Read More}
Tweet I keep dabbling with Asian hair care and styling products, and I have to say overall I am impressed. Most of the Korean and Japanese hair care I have tried so far tends to be quite light finish – in other words, no crunchies, and no flakies. I bought this Etude House Moist Hair Mist because I am suitably frizzy and dry around the barnet area. I figured this could be one of those top up products I could {Read More}
Tweet Regular readers will know I had a perm recently and it was not a fun experience. Now, nearly 4 months later the perm has started to loosen and I am straightening my hair every time I dry it. I honestly find most western branded styling products too heavy and crispy. Japanese hair styling products, in my experience, are lighter and don’t tend to leave any crusty, crispy bits. Because I buy things in 3′s I purchased a 3 step {Read More}
Tweet I first caught wind of the Pantene Colour Seal Concentrate product at this evening event, where the Dr Frauke Neuser showed us how by using this concentrate on the hair for just 2 minutes made it ‘waterproof’ so to speak by forming a protective seal over the hair. Dyed hair sunk in water, hair treated with this stuff, did not. FINALLY! The product has been launched: They say: The NEW Pantene Pro-V Colour Protect Colour Seal Concentrate. Like first {Read More}
Tweet I tend to let my hair dry naturally because I wash it pretty much every day. If I forget to put something in it, it frizzes into a giant poof ball. So I am always looking for things I can use on damp hair that will defrizz and add some definition without weighing it down. I really like Japanese hair care/styling products. They tend to be a lot lighter on the hair. This is Yanafiya Prexceed Hair Serum with {Read More}
Tweet I had so so so much fun last week when I was invited by Pantene to meet their spokesperson, Cat Deeley at The Savoy, to talk about hair, beauty and generally get fed and pampered. We were talking Colour Protect baby! Pantene’s newest range has 7 products, Smooth Shampoo & Conditioner, Volume Shampoo & Conditioner, Colour Seal Concentrate, 2 minute Damage Rescue Treatment and Instant Nourishing Shine Spray. So the event was held in the Royal Suite in The {Read More}
Tweet Salon Style is a Kose hair care brand. It’s a shame shampoo and conditioners are too heavy to ship over otherwise my shower would be lined with Shiseido! I actually bought this Salon Style Precious Head Spa milk because I thought it was some kind of sunscreen (because of the UV bit) – there’s no SPF listed but it is supposed to offer some kind of protection. Kose SALON STYLE Precious Head Spa Day Damage Care Milk contains spa {Read More}
