Christophe Robin has launched a new styling range targetted for all hair types, especially which are prone to frizz or need some extra care like curly hair. The two products launched with this range are specifically targetting the above concerns and the good thing about them is that the concentrated care formulas are composed of 99% natural-origin ingredients to deeply nurture the hair fibre for an instantly beautiful hairstyle. Anti-Frizz Rescue Milk with Shea Butter and Luscious Curl Cream with Flaxseed Oil.
Anti-Frizz Rescue Milk with Shea Butter is anti-frizz rescue milk that provides a triple action of nourishing, protecting and styling the hair. Its nourishing formula enriched with shea butter, rich in vitamins, omega 3 and 6, boosts nutrition. The moringa acts like a shield against pollution, heat and colour oxidation while sealing the hair’s cuticles for a structured and frizz-free finish. It is suitable for all hair types, especially the frizziest hair. The key is the amount of product you use, I always suggest to start with the minimal amount and if you feel the need for more, then go ahead and take more. It works nicely for everyday use on damp hair and even on the dry hair for touch-ups.
The formula is non-sticky and has a residue-free milky texture. I have experienced my medium wavy dry hair look and feel healthy, moisturized, and shiny with minimal flyaways. And It does not weigh them down. I use it usually on dry hair for touchups after heat styling as I use the other new launch from the brand – the Luscious curls cream on damp hair but I have tried using them both together and in a reverse manner – they both work nicely – depends on how you get used to using them.
To Use – ‘Apply the milk on damp hair from root to tip, including baby hair around the hairline. Blow-dry or air dry. As a touch-up, apply the milk to dry hair to eliminate even the most stubborn frizz.’
Luscious Curl Cream with Flaxseed Oil is a styling leave-in cream for bouncy curls. It also provides a triple action of nourishing, protecting and styling the hair.
Its nourishing formula enriched with shea butter, rich in vitamins, omega 3 and 6, boosts nutrition. The moringa acts like a shield against pollution, heat and colour oxidation while sealing the hair’s cuticles for a structured and frizz-free finish. I feel my hair are instantly nurtured and protected for bouncier, transformed and perfectly defined curls. I also use it as a heat protectant before heat styling and have noticed it gives me volume too. The cream has non-greasy, non-sticky and residue-free creamy texture.
To use – ‘Apply the cream evenly on damp hair from root to tip. Blow-dry hair using a diffuser or air dry. As a touch-up, apply the cream to dry hair for even bouncier curls. ‘
Overall, they are both amazing additions to my hair care routine, especially as the weather is getting colder. Christophe Robin products are available at Sephora Canada, Saks Fifth Avenue, Space NK, Nordstrom, and Netaporter.
*Press samplesIn my skincare routine, essence plays an important role and with few essences on rotation, I do like changing them based on my skin’s needs and the weather. I have used Omorovicza products in my skincare routine for over five years now and every time I try something new from them, they have impressed me always. Apart from the Queen of Hungary mist and Magic Moisture mist from the brand, I have not tried any other mist or essence or toner from the brand. I have been using the Omorovicza Omoressence for almost a month now. Omorovicza Omoressence is a balancing and hydrating essence that prepares the skin for further treatment.
Omorovicza Omoressence is to be used after cleansing the skin and before the serum and moisturizer. ‘Pour a few drops into the palm of your hand, rub hands together and pat over face and neck. Allow a few minutes to absorb, then follow with serum and moisturizer. ‘ It has a herbal and fresh smell that faints in a few seconds but is very relaxing while applying it. I have not experienced any irritation or breakout while using this essence and always gives me a refreshing feeling.
The key ingredients in the help restore skin’s ideal physiological balance, boosting its ability to retain moisture all day long and providing a feel of instant comfort. It also prevents harmful bacteria from accumulating on the skin’s surface and reduces inflammation, as well as preventing environmental stress caused by pollution and UV. It also contains Omorovicza’s patented ‘Healing Concentrate’ delivery system leaves skin firmer, more supple and younger-looking.
Omoressence is definitely a nice addition to my skincare regime. Omorovicza products are available at Nordstrom stores, Four Seasons Toronto, Sephora Canada, and online at www.omorovicza.com.
*Press samplesHair Rituel by Sisley Paris has created a new unisex Pre-Shampoo Purifying Mask with white clay to tackle the scalp and hair issues. The whole background to the scalp and hair issues starts from this modern life and style we live in and also the emotional, seasonal, hormonal, and environmental causes including internal and external pollution.
The dust, fine particles, and smoke encountered in the city have an impact on our hair making them fragile and dull. The internal pollution including fatigue, stress, and a poor diet can also result in an unbalanced scalp. This occurrence can lead to a whole host of issues including excessive sebum production, irritation, oxidation, and suffocation. To tackle this issue and care for the scalp, Hair Rituel by Sisley Paris has created the Pre-Shampoo Purifying Mask with White Clay. This mask is unisex and is to be used to prepare the hair before washing and protects it from internal and external pollution.
The micro-particles from the pollution easily adhere to the hair fibre and start accumulating on it while preventing the hair from benefitting from hair care products as well as to stay clean. The Pre-Shampoo Purifying Maks with White Clay rids the scalp of substances likely to inhibit or suffocate it or those that cause itching or irritation, to restore hair’s natural vitality.
Pre-Shampoo Purifying Mask with White Clay has key ingredients white clay – acts as a blotter to instantly absorb excess sebum and cleanse the scalp of impurities, pollutants and excess styling products, java tea extract – rebalances the scalp by reducing excess sebum, celery seed extracts – helps reduce the penetration of irritants and pollution while purifying the scalp. More ingredients to make hair, soft, shiny, stronger, and manageable as used regularly.
The packaging of the Pre-Shampoo Purifying Mask with White Clay as you see in the pictures is very user-friendly – makes the application very easy. I apply it straight from the pointy tip of the tube to my scalp – section by section on the scalp and hair – I personally concentrate on my problem scalp. It feels very soothing and calming to my scalp immediately after applying it on. I massage it lightly and then leave it for 15-30minutes depending on what I am doing. Before washing it off, I massage my scalp again and then rinse my hair with water following with shampoo and conditioner. My scalp feels fresh, calm, and comfortable while my hair is soft, healthy, and shiny. I use this hair mask every weekend as a must-have which keeps my problem scalp calm and helps with itchiness while balancing my scalp.
Pre-Shampoo Purifying Mask with White Clay is definitely a keeper for healthy scalp and hair. Sisley Paris Products are available at Holt Renfrew, Saks Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom, and Sisley-Paris.ca
