[Review] Garnier Nutrisse Cream




Product description:

Garnier Nutrisse is the only permanent haircolor creme that nourishes with grape seed and avocado oil. The nourishing color creme enriched with fruit oil concentrate, penetrates deep into hair fibers to nourish and condition your hair so it takes color better and holds it longer, root-to-tip. Garnier Nutrisse delivers rich, long-lasting color with 100% gray coverage.

Is Garnier Nutrisse right for you?

Yes:
# If you want to nourish your hair as you color

# If you want grays to be completely covered

# If you want a color creme that spreads easily, won't drip and smells great

# If you want a natural, healthy-looking color that’s silky soft


. Nourished hair takes color better and holds it longer.
. For richer, more radiant color - root to tip.
. 100% gray coverage

My take:
I love this a lot! The first thing that hits me with this product is the smell. Colour concentrates are usually ladled with chemical smells, as told by my friends and the experience with Revlon Colorsilk. However, Garnier Nutrisse Cream was totally opposite. The developer milk and the colour concentrate smell wonderful, a fruity and floral type of wonderful.

The colour coverage is as good as Revlon's. Then again, in this era, all hair dyes do guarantee good colour coverage due to better technology and chemicals.

On the downside, the amount of the product isn't a lot. Because my hair is shoulder-length, the amount was enough for me. But if your hair is really long, you will need to buy at least 2 bottles because if you just buy one and JUST realised it wasn't enough, then you will be in a bit of a trouble.

Will buy again?
YES! :D

[Review] Revlon Colorsilk



Product description:

Revlon® Colorsilk™ gives you natural-looking, even color from root to tip that stays beautiful between colorings. It is formulated to penetrate every strand with its gentle, ammonia-free formula and after-color conditioner with nourishing silk proteins. Hair looks silkier, shinier and healthier than before you colored. 100% gray coverage.

Leaves hair in better condition.

Available in a range of 40 brilliant shades*
Colorsilk™ permanent haircolor can be used on natural, color-treated, relaxed or permed hair.

My take:
The colour coverage is really good.

However, the product is quite drying. Even after using the conditioner, my hair still felt rough. However, the next morning, my hair regained its softness and there was a new shine in my hair.

The smell reminded me so so much of chemicals. It has a very heavy chemical smell. However, I was absolutely in love with the conditioner because it smell heavenly!

Will buy again?
Maybe. This has been my first hair dye so I would like to experiment more.

[Review] Bio-essence Sparkiling Lift Eye Mask



The pictures tells of the product description as well so I won't go there.

It didn't lighten my dark eye circles, but it did moisturize the area well.

Fragrance:
The scent was pretty good. But let's face it, there may very well be many chemicals.

Will buy again?
No. Because the product doesn't work.

[Review] Skinlite Ultra Hydrating Olive Oil Mask



Product Description

* Easy & effective “Bottle shaped” sheet type essence mask.
* 100% Natural pulp sheet prevents skin trouble and provides close adhesion to skin.
* Olive Oil provides skin revitalizing & moisturizing.
* Renewed, re-hydrated and younger looking skin.

Does it work?

The product feels really sticky and I didn't like that at all. But I used it anyway. The next morning when I woke up, my skin felt sticky, just like the stickiness initially. But when I washed the residue off my face, my skin felt really good and hydrated.

Fragrance:
The fragrance is very light. So light that people who are not sensitive to fragrances will think this is scentless.

Will buy again?
No. I really dislike the stickiness.

[Review] Starbucks Tazo® Chai Tea Latte



Today, I tried Chai Tea Latte from Starbucks. And honestly, I don't really like it. The chai taste wasn't very strong and the fact that it wasn't sweet like Coffee Bean's got me quite upset because I love sweet stuff.

Will buy again?
No.

[Review] The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf Chai Tea Latte

Chai is a black tea that tastes a little spiced.

The Chai Tea Latte I tasted at Coffee Bean was wonderful. I love the sweetness of the tea latte which is actually from the vanilla powder. Yet at the same time, I could taste the chai completely.

Will buy again?
Yes.
