SILK BLOOM RESTORATIVE SHAMPOO FOR DAMAGED HAIR

I love the bottle and smell of this baby. It's  got a soft, subtle and feminine scent and it lingers on the hair after the wash. This shampoo is excellent for those with damaged hair, medium to thicker hair. I have noticed a difference to my hair after a few week of usage. For me, my hair has been damaged over the years of hair dyes. As much as I want to 'restore' the thickness of my hair, it has been going thinner as I get older :(.... I miss the days where I have full volume and thick hair... Anyway, back to this product. The shampoo has a rich lotion texture, once you start to massage the shampoo into the scalp, you'll start to feel it starting to make the hair softer. This shampoo does NOT strip the hair at all and it's safe for colored hair. I really recommend this to those with damaged/dry hair as it really does offer rich moisture to the hair while making it look healthy. I also noticed that my hair doesn't snap/break off as easily.
The only complaint I have with this is that it might be too much for those with fine hair. I noticed after a month of usage, the root area has become a bit oily the day after shampooing. And this is not a good thing, as I don't want to wash my hair everyday.

SILK BLOOM RESTORATIVE TREATMENT MASQUE

Going with the same line of products, I absolutely LOVE this hair mask.  I honestly think this is the best mask I have tried so far. I applied the mask starting from the middle to the end of my hair and leave it in for at least 15min. (The longer the better, but I'm lazy most of the time). After washing this stuff off, it makes my hair feel silky smooth. It's just that amazing. And the smoothness will stay until the next wash. I can't say enough good thing about this. I had the bottle for at least half a year and I still have a quarter left...Even though this mask is very expensive, but I think it has helped my hair tremendously.

ESSENCE ABSOLUE NOURISHING PROTECTIVE OIL

I will NEVER go without this hair oil. I have tried numerous hair oil and this is by far the best one in the market. It retails for $68 at Holt Renfrew for a 150ML bottle. Yes, the price hurts my wallet, but this thing is amazing. I apply the oil on wet hair, leave it in for a few min and blow dry as usual. This stuff really makes my hair frizz free and dry-free. I tried using many oil, anti-heat sprays, anything you can find at Sephora or the drug store, but I just always come back to this. I am already on the second bottle of this baby, and I really want to preserve the amount of usage as it is really pricey :(...But it does amazing things to my damaged dry hair.

Cleansing Oil Shampoo
This shampoo is great for those with oily hair. It leaves the hair really bouncy and light, without drying it out. The shampoo claimed to be able to clean off the impurities in the scalp and balance the oil level in the scalp. I agreed with Shu's claim, as it does help leaving the root really radiant and bouncy. I don't think it does an outstanding job at really cleaning out all of the impurities and oil built up, but I do think that it does it's job. I strongly recommend this to those with oily/fine hair. I personally wouldn't repurchase this in a while, because of its price and the needs that my hair require.

Review: Lancome Dual Finish Versatile Powder Foundation Makeup

I have always been trying out new foundation powders over the years...And I gotta say, this is one of my favorite foundation powder. The shade I have is  Matte Neutrale II (W).. The texture of this powder foundation is really finely milled. I would say the coverage of this foundation is medium to build-able.  I wouldn't say this is a heavy duty full coverage powder, as it doesn't cover acne or marks. One of the reasons why I love this foundation a lot is the longevity that it gives. I usually apply my  makeup around 7:30am in the morning...and I have a typical OL work schedule. So by the end of the day (I would say at least 8 hrs later), I can still see the foundation set really nicely on my skin. For alot of other foundation powders that I have try (ex. chanel)..this Lancome powder does not oxide as much on me. The color stay pretty much the same as I applied. But of course, it does wear off a bit at the end of the day. But I really love how long it stays o...

Hot Pink Rose Vibrant Overall, I think the color payoff for these lipsticks + lip glosses are very pigmented. But I find that the lip butters are quite drying after 30min or so. I can see my lips start to dry up alot more if I wear these lip butters on a daily basis.  The lip glosses are very opaque and the colors are really pretty, however, it doesn't last long...
