Review: Bed Head After Party





Likes:
-Smells divine
-Non-sticky
-Tames the frizz and flyaways
-Last for ages
-Awesome packaging
-Doesn't make my hair look greasy and wont weight hair down

Dislikes:
-Expensive! The next time I go to Hong Kong, I'm going hoard on these
-The delicious smell is ADDICTIVE

Overall:
This is a wonderful product for anyone with frizzy or tangled hair. It's a light cream product that didn't weigh my thin hair down. I'm not sure how well it will do on girls with coarser hair but I've read reviews on makeupalley.com and this stuff works on them too . I bought this from BONJOUR BOUTIQUE in Hong Kong for like half the price it costs here, so if you can get this there or ask friends whos going to Hong Kong to haul it for you.

Would I purchase again>
YUP YUP YUP !

review/demo: desert essence 100 % jojoba oil

LIKES:
-can be used for hair, skin, nails and scalp!
-no nasty smell
-available in manila ( got my at healthy options)
-absorbs really well
-its's light
-can be used as a makeup remover
-moisturizes my cuticles well
-does not make my hair greasy ( i use this mainly on my hair/scalp)
-lasts forever
-it's all natural

DISLIKES:
-it's a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for
-the lid bothers me, sometimes i squirt out too much , sometimes not enough

OVERALL:
i use this mainly on my hair and i have to say, my damaged and dry hair is now smooth, frizz free and sooo shiny! i have yet tried this on my skin because my face is acting out lately and i'm hesitant to slather "oil" into my skin. even though reviews have touted this product to clear up acne! i don't want to take a chance on it yet.

WILL I REPURCHASE AGAIN?

yes yes YES!! i can't believe how healthy my hair looks now. even my sisters and mom commented on how much my hair has improved. my mom even asked if i trimmed my hair coz it looks healthier!

RATING:

/ 5



i'm almost running out so i went ahead and bought the big bottle!



3 drops is all i need for my fine shoulder length hair



apply it to damp hair"



concentrate mostly on the ends



if i have time, i wrap my hair back in a towel and let the oil penetrate into my hair even more



read this!

i don't have after pictures, but i will soon okay lovelies?? but take my word for it, this stuff works!!!! especially on damaged and dry hair!! i thought my hair was a lost cause and cutting it was the only answer, but i can finally grow out my hair, because this stuff made my hair look and feel healthy again!!!

review: kerastase oleo relax ( anti-frizz serum)





LIKES:
-yummy smell
-never too greasy or weighed down
-untangles the knots easily
-makes my hair soft, silky and shiny
-the light floral scent is heavenly
-the packaging is really practical, the pump does not give out too much product
-i've received flattering compliments on my hair with this


DISLIKES:
-it's pricey at P1,500 ( $30-$31) for 4.2 ounces
-the serum is kinda watery

OVERALL:
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE. definitely my HG

i didn't think my fine hair could handle a serum but i was amazed at this stuff. my hair looks smooth and shiny all throughout the day. NEVER GREASY. my sister who has coarser and frizzier hair also uses this and it works just as good for her. that's why i would recommend this to everyone, and for all hair types!

so tell me, what hair serum do you use??

RATING:

/5
