Pro beauty tools: Speed Waver

Pro beauty tool's Wave wand $15.00 on ebay
I wanted the bedhead waver for quiet sometime now. I wanted to try and find a cheaper version of the model that gives you the same result as the bedhead waver for a lower price. After a lot of research, I came across Pro beauty tools speed waver. It gives you shine and long lasting results for a much lower price.

The Pro beauty tool's speed waver came with a portable plastic case.  Although it did not come in it's original packaging; the product was brand new without tags.

It doesn't take a long time to wave your hair.  The ceramic coated plates evenly distribute the heat, giving your hair shine. It takes about 25 minutes to do you whole head.  It works best if you have straight hair.

Garnier Fructis: Pure Clean shampoo and conditioner

Pure Clean Collection: $5.00-11.00
       I use Garnier Fructis Pure Clean shampoo and conditioner as daily products to clean my hair. The shampoo and conditioner smell amazing. They kind of smell like a combination of fruits and something tropical. You should only use this product once a week because it's a very strong cleaning product. When rinsing the shampoo out of your hair you can feel the oils being stripped out of your hair. If you use the pure clean shampoo, I recommend that you use a leave-in condition or hair mask to restore moisture.

If you have oily hair, this shampoo can restore your hair to it's natural state. Since this is a deep cleaning shampoo and conditioner; you need to insure that you restore moisture to you hair after using it. Saying so, when you get out of the shower I recommend that you use OGX Argan oil of morroco to prevent breakage.

I.C.O.N India Oil

I.C.O.N India Oil, $29.99 


About I.C.O.N's India Oil:
    My hair dresser recommended that I use I.C.O.N India oil to treat my hair. This product is suppost to moisturize your hair while making it smooth and shiny. By applying 1-3 drops of this product on the ends of your hair; this can help reduce breakage.

About the packaging:
This glass bottle contains 3.8 fl. oz of exotic oil. This oil treatment is more on the pricey side, whoever since the packaging and applicator are high-end; this helps conserve the product. This applicator allows you to control the amount of product you use.

How to use it?
This formula heals the senses with amber. Apply by pressing into wet or dry hair and combing through to evenly district the product.

What does this product smell like?
Bio Silk
Glass applicator

Does it work?
Since I have frizzy hair, I find that this product works best when my hair is damp yet close to dry. This way it's easier to see if the product get's evenly distributed. When the product is evenly distributed it weighs my hair down so that I don't get odd shape/volume when my hair is dry.

Vidal Sassoon:one minute moisturizing mask

 

Mask ranges from $6.00-$8.00

     I've never purchased Vidal Sassoon's products before, but I decided I wanted to try his one minute moisturizing mask. The product is very creamy and it smells like a coconut mixture. I bought this mask the beginning of July and it's now done; there isn't enough product to last you a month. If you have Frizzy hair, I recommend this product for you because it's very moisturizing. If you have the type of hair that is dry to the point where you gives you odd volume/shape; this product can help weigh your hair down. I will definitely be repurchasing this product!

L'Oréal: Total Repair 5 mask

Price ranges between $5.00-8.00 for 300ml
      I purchased l'Oréal's Total Repair 5 mask help restore my hair after the damage from hot tools. My hair became very weak and dry. After using this product this allowed the serum to moisturize the scalp and allowed you to receive intense reparations. There is enough product to last you a month or so. The mask smells very strong; kind of like perfume. You only have to leave the serum in your hair for about 5 minutes then wash it out. After using this mask, your hair will smell clean and fresh for days. You can apply a generous amount, but a little goes a long way. Since this product is light weight it doesn't weigh your hair down. You will start seeing noticeable changes after 2 weeks; you'll see that your hair becomes EXTREMELY moisturized.

Clean and Clear Daily Pore Cleanser vs Tea Tree Squeaky-Clean Scrub



The Body Shop: Tea Tree Face Scrub
VIVID SCALE: 1/5
            I recently purchased the Body Shop's Tea Tree Face Scrub. I encourage customers to smell this product before you purchase it. This skin-clearing facial scrub combines micro-fine exfoliants with bursting beads to help unclog pores without over-drying. Use a few times a week for skin that feels super clean and instantly smooth (thebodyshop.ca). The night I bought it; I thought I would give it a try. Let me tell you! I was hard for me to apply it because the smell of herbs and mint went right up my noise. I felt like gagging. I had to hold my breath when washing it off. On the up side, It did a good job of keeping my face squeaky clean for the night. When I woke up my face had a bunch of bumps all over it. I decided to purchase a lighter face cleanser from Walmart.


Clean & Clear Micro Scrub Face Wash
VIVID SCALE: 4.5/5
        The Clean & Clear face cleanser was a lot cheaper then the Tea Tree face wash. It has gentle micro-scrubbers that remove impurities like pore-blocking dirt, oil, and dead surface skin. It gently cleanses your face and leaves soft and smooth skin (cleanandclear.com). After the first use, I already saw improvement in my skin. My skin doesn't feel any softer but, this product helped minimize my bumps and imperfections. Might I add the smell is amazing. There is enough product to last you months. I would definitely recommend the clean and clear face wash to anyone with sensitive skin.

Marc Anthony: Oil of Morocco

Marc Anthony's Oil of morocco

   Marc Anthony's Oil of morocco consist  a blend of  Moroccan Argan oil, Mediterranean olive oil, keratin and shea butter. The ingredients are suppose to work together to make hair soft, shiny and manageable. But, don't be fooled by the packaging. There is not a lot of product inside the bottle to last you a long time. There is only 50ml of product inside the package. This was enough to last me a month or so. This product didn't really do much for my hair type. The package informs you that if you have damaged hair, you are suppose to add 3-4 drops of the serum to damp hair. Even though the product smells amazing, the serum was not thick enough to moisturize or strengthen my hair. So this product did not do much for my hair type. It was WAY over priced, considering the amount of product you get. I will not be repurchasing this product, however I recommend this product to people that have thine hair.

OGX Renewing Argan oil of morocco

OGX: Renewing Argan Oil of morocco 


My hair after using this product

      Recently, I purchased the OGX Renewing Argan oil of morocco. The packaging is beautiful and the product itself is amazing. Since I have dry hair, I wanted to use a product that moisturized it throughout the day. Since I have a unique type of hair, it's hard to find products that treat it. After using this product, I found my hair became softer and silkier. I find the longer the product has been in your hair, the softer and more moisturized your hair becomes. Even though there is only 100ml, it lasts a long time. I normally apply this product when my hair is wet; that way when I brush it the product gets evenly distributed. Leaving this product in over night will give you maximum results. I will definitely be repurchasing this product!
