Moroccan Oil has launched new Color Depositing Masks – dual-benefit masks that give a beautiful, temporary colour to the hair, plus all the nourishing benefits of a deep conditioning treatment. Colour Depositing Masks come in 7 shades—ranging from the tropical pink Hibiscus to the rich, velvety Cocoa—there’s something for just about everyone. The shades comprise of fun fashion shades (like Aquamarine, Hibiscus, Rose Gold, and Platinum), or to enhance existing colour with, say, golden-hued Champagne or crimson-brown Bordeaux, or apply as needed to maintain the salon colour between visits.
Colour Depositing Masks add temporary colour that’s designed to gradually fade out over time. The longevity of the colour depends on several factors—including the starting hair shade, how often hair is washed, and the hair’s porosity. (if you frequently heat-style or colour your hair, it’s probably on the porous side.) Hibiscus and Aquamarine are the most vibrant colours and may last longer than other shades.
Generally speaking, people with lighter or more porous hair will experience a brighter and longer-lasting result. That means that if you have dirty blonde hair that you’ve never coloured, your best friend is a platinum blonde, and you both try Hibiscus, her hair will likely be to be a lot pinker for a lot longer than yours will be. Also, the longer the mask is left in the hair, the more intense your results will be. The masks are intensely nourishing treatments and do not contain ammonia, peroxide, or bleach. They also contain a star-studded roster of ingredients, including the brand’s exclusive ArganID™ technology, which infuses argan oil deep into the hair’s cortex and helps seal the cuticle. They also feature an amino acid blend to nourish, detangle, and boost shine, plus Apricot Kernel Oil to help soften hair and improve hydration with oleic acid, linoleic acid, and Vitamin E.
The 7 shades in which this new Color Depositing Mask is available are:
Aquamarine is a cool blue tone for use on light blonde to medium blonde hair.
Hibiscus is a brilliant, floral pink tone for use on light blonde to medium blonde hair.
Champagne is a warm, golden blonde for use on light blonde to medium blonde hair.
Platinum is a cool, icy blonde for use on light blonde to medium blonde hair.
Rose Gold is a soft pink with warm, golden undertones for use on light blonde to medium blonde hair.
Bordeaux is a deep crimson brown for use on light to dark brown hair.
Cocoa is a rich medium brown for use on light to dark brown hair.
Do you color your hair or have you tried any temporary hair color? Overall, amazing new launch from the brand. Moroccanoil products are available at Sephora Canada and Morroccanoil official website here.
*Press samplesEstee Lauder has launched Advanced Night Repair Intense Reset Concentrate which is an overnight treatment that rescues and resets the look of skin fast. I have been a fan of Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Recovery Complex II, reviewed here, since few years, actually not just me – It has always been in my Mom’s vanity since I remember. The new addition to the Advanced Night Repair range called the Advanced Night Repair Intense Reset Concentrate really excited me to see what difference does it do from the original version.
”Per the official website, This breakthrough overnight treatment, with Chronolux™ S.O.S. technology, rescues and resets the look of skin fast. Immerses skin in sustained, 24-hour moisture with 15X concentrated Hyaluronic Acid in a multi-molecular weight complex.
SOOTHES the look of irritation—in just 1 hour.

RESTORES a more poreless, refined texture and significantly boosts skin’s luminous clarity. Also formulated with high-powered anti-oxidants to defend against the appearance of free radical damage.’‘
This overnight treatment is very nourishing to the skin and did not irritate my skin. It is suggested to use it after the repair serum. The texture is silky and light, it applies nicely and absorbs into the skin rapidly. I have noticed my skin to have clarity and suppleness. It did not cause any irritation to my skin or any breakouts. The pores are less visible and skin texture looks and feels healthy and smooth.
Estee Lauder products are available at Esteelauder.ca, Sephora.ca, Hudsons Bay, and BeautyBoutique by Shoppers Drug Mart.
*Press samplesAerin is a brand that makes me remind of elegance, feminity, beauty, and love. I have not tried many Aerin fragrances or body products, so I did not have any specific expectations before my first and subsequent spritz of the scend I am going to sharing ahead in this article. Aerin Aegea Blossom Eau de Parfum is a vibrant floral fragrance, Aegea Blossom, which is a voyage of the senses inspired by the blue sea, cool breezes, and pure light of Greece.
Radiant Bergamot and Verbena give way to sheer Jasmine, Orange Flower and Neroli Petals finished with Musk and Sandalwood. In the final notes, glowing Musk surrenders to the sultry, lingering notes of Vetiver and Sandalwood, as warm as sunlight on water. To sail its waters is to feel a release of pure joy and freedom.
Top Notes: Bergamot, Verbena, Mandarin Orange
Middle Notes: Jasmine, African Orange Flower, Neroli
Base Notes: Musk, Vetiver, Sandalwood
The fragrance smells absolutely delicious. On me, it starts off strong as lime/citrus scent, then over time a musky, laundry-like but then dies down to a beautiful uplifting sweet floral scent. I can see myself wearing this scent on a beautiful day in Santorini – as is the scent inspired by it. Aerin fragrances and products are available on esteelauder.ca , Holt Renfrew, and Sephora.ca
