<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Those were the days when I'd always carry a can of Impulse aerosol in my high-school bag! I'd always carry a can of Impulse with me to ensure that I'd have a pleasant scent lingering around me all day long! I've always been a huge fan of Impulse since I was a teen as I'd always feel confident everywhere I'd go and the variety of Impulse scents always smell naturally refreshing! </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">This year, 2014, Impulse have launched an exciting range of Impulse Perfume in an Aerosol collection (A$4.99/75ml) featuring nine beautiful scents! You can view their range of scents by clicking on their webpage <a href="http://www.impulsefragrances.com.au/products.html" target="_blank">here</a>. I have with me three of the nine scents and these are as follows:</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="color: magenta;">Romantic Spark</span> - with top notes of violet extracts and woody scents, Romantic Sparks is a lovely and pleasant fragrance that I'm sure all lovers of floral and woody scents will enjoy!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="color: #f1c232;">Merely Musk</span> - top notes of lime and sandalwood combine to give you a clean and fresh scent!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Illusions</span> - a fusion of rose extracts and sandalwood brings you the scent called Illusions that smells quite enchanting and reviving! </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Although all three scents are unique and pleasant, my favourite is the Romantic Spark variation! The intensities of the scents are somewhat strong, so you need to make sure that you allow some distance (~20cm) between the aerosol can and your body. The strong scent means that it does last during the entire day by leaving a subtle trail of fragrance and scents. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Now that winter is well gone, Spring has come to play and it's the perfect chance to rejuvenate skin that has lost it's moisture during the winter season. This is where The Sanctuary Spa has come to the rescue with the launch of their Body Oil Collection to ensure that your body looks and feels well hydrated and moisturised, so you could wear spring/summer clothes with confidence! The launch of The Sanctuary Spa's new and indulgent Body Oil Collection
comes after the success of their skin boosting facial oils filled with the
goodness of essential oils and vitamin E. I reviewed The Sanctuary Spa
Therapist's Secret Facial Oil <a href="http://thebeautyofredroses.blogspot.com.au/2013/02/the-santuary-spa-therapists-facial-oil.html" target="_blank">here</a> and absolutely love how it made my skin feel revitalised and replenished! </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The Sanctuary Spa Body Oil Collection features the following core ingredients: antioxidant gold of pleasure oil, omega 3 fatty acids and vitamin E. The products from this collection include the 2 Day Moisture Shower Gel (A$12.99/250ml), 4 Day Moisture Oil Scrub (A$17.99/150ml), 4 Day Moisture Oil Mist (A$12.99/150ml) and 5 Day Moisture Creamy Body Oil (A$12.99/250ml). These body products help to replenish and repair skin to leave it looking radiant, hydrated and soft to touch!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">When I heard about the release of The Sanctuary Spa's Body Oil Collection, I jumped at
the chance to try their new 4 Day Moisture Oil Scrub! I always feel at ease and relaxed when I pamper my skin with The Sanctuary Spa products, so the addition of the 4 Day Moisture Oil Scrub makes my showers a touch more pleasant! </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The 4 Day Moisture Oil Scrub is a refining body scrub that helps to exfoliate, smooth and polish the skin to leave it feeling soft, nourished and well hydrated. The scrub is made with a nourishing blend of organic olive oil, shea butter and antioxidising gold of pleasure oil with fine salt crystals. I've been using this scrub twice weekly whilst in the shower and I am totally obsessed with this 4 Day Moisture Oil Scrub! I love how the fine salt crystals in this scrub melts away on the surface of my skin and it feels very gentle when I'm exfoliating my elbows, knees and any other rough surfaces of skin on my body. The infusion of organic olive oil leaves my skin feeling very hydrated and moisturised that there is no need to apply a body lotion to soften and moisturise my skin.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Sally Hansen recently launched their innovative Miracle Gel Colour (A$16.95/14.7ml) nail collection featuring a hybrid lacquer/gel formula that delivers lasting gloss, shine and colour! Another key attribute of this new gel formula is that you could achieve long lasting colour without the need for a light source! Available in 18 gorgeous shades, all you need is a coat or two of Miracle Gel polish and then a single coat of Miracle Gel Top Coat to protect the colour surface of Miracle Gel polish. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The two shades of Miracle Gel Colour that I used to create the nail look
in the above image are 'B Girl' and 'Blacky O'. B Girl is a gorgeous
creamy and pastel Tiffany green shade and Blacky O is a solid black
glossy shade. These two shades are my favourite shades from the range and are perfect to wear during this Spring season! If you're looking for some Miracle Gel nail inspiration and you have an Instagram account, be sure to check out the mesmerising nail art under the hashtag 'OMGel'. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I love love love the new Miracle Gel range by Sally Hansen as the Miracle Gel Colour polish lasted on my nails for more than 7 days before small chips start to become visible. This is the longest time that I've applied nail polish/top coat and my nails remain bold, glossy and full of colour for a full 7 days! </span></span></div>

Scandalous Fabulously Flirty Dry Shampoo is an interesting type of dry shampoo that is formulated using corn starch to absorb excess oil from the scalp. The scent is quite strong and has a woody-based scent, which isn't a scent that I would call my favourite. Despite the scent, my scalp and hair feels fresh and clean after a couple of sprays from this spray can.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I love playing with colour cosmetics, which is why I was feeling super excited when I opened up my Violet Box to reveal 3 colour cosmetic products!</span></span></div>

This shade is perfect to wear during this Spring season!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b><span style="color: #e06666;">Girlactik Eyeshadow (A$23/2.5g, full-sized product received) -</span></b> This cute and compact eye shadow in the shade 'Pink Ruffle' is a pretty metallic baby pink shade. I've been using this cute shade as a highlighter by applying a tiny amount to the inner corners of my eyes and below my brow bone. I love how this shade can be used to highlight areas of my eyes. Due to the metallic sheen of this shade, I wouldn't suggest to use it as an all-over eyeshadow.</span></span></div>

Starlooks eye pencil is an amazing eye pencil as it provides intense pigmentation, has good lasting-power and is very easy to give eyes a dramatic look!</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Do you incorporate serum into your daily skincare routine? </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Serum is one of the most important steps prior to applying a moisturiser to deliver essential nutrients and vitamins deep into the skin, while a moisturiser acts as a barrier to hydrate and protect the skin. Serums are a fantastic skincare formula that help to replenish all the nutrients and vitamins your skin needs to look and feel gorgeous! </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Jurlique recently launched some luxurious serums that I've been experimenting with and I have to say, I absolutely love the texture, consistency and results these serums offer! Today I will be reviewing the Herbal Recovery Advanced Eye Serum (A$58/15ml) and the Purely Age-Defying Firming and Tightening Serum (A$95/30ml). </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Jurlique Herbal Recovery skincare collection is my most favourite from the Jurlique line! I've used the Herbal Recovery Night Cream (reviewed <a href="http://thebeautyofredroses.blogspot.com.au/2013/06/protect-your-skin-while-you-sleep.html" target="_blank">here</a>), Antioxidant Facial Oil (reviewed <a href="http://thebeautyofredroses.blogspot.com.au/2013/03/new-jurlique-herbal-recovery.html" target="_blank">here</a>) and Advanced Serum (reviewed <a href="http://thebeautyofredroses.blogspot.com.au/2013/10/new-jurlique-herbal-recovery-advanced.html" target="_blank">here</a>) in the past and these products worked very well to help make my skin appear softer, supple and wonderful! I was pretty excited when Jurlique launched the new Advanced Eye Serum as this product makes the Jurlique Herbal Recovery collection feel complete. The Advanced Eye Serum helps to reduce dark circles around the eye area, minimise signs of fatigue and alleviate dehydration, while replenishing the skin around the eye area to achieve radiant and brighter looking eyes! </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Herbal Recovery Advanced Eye Serum brings to light an ingredient called Naturevive PB18+ which is a complex that helps to deliver potent antioxidants and essential fatty acids to energise, revitalise and protect the skin around the delicate eye area. The formula is infused with Persian Silk Extract to assist in strengthening the skin cell capacity and act as a barrier to reflect environmental stressors, Wu-Zhu-Yu Extract to help boost the smoothness of skin, and Sacchromyces Cerevisiae to help reduce the appearance of dark circles around the eye area. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Advanced Eye Serum is housed in a sleek-looking glass bottle with a pump to allow hygienic dispensing of the product. One pump produces a small pearl-sized amount of product that is sufficient to gently pat and massage onto the skin around the delicate eye area. The Advanced Eye Serum is a non-greasy formula which helps to nourish the skin while concentrating on reducing the appearance of dark circles and fine lines over continual usage. I've been using this eye serum as a daily night treatment and I have seen noticeable improvements in hydration and appearance over the space of 4 weeks. My dark circles appear less prominent and the skin around my eye area looks a lot more hydrated than it was before. </span>I am very satisfied with the result of using Jurlique's Advanced Eye Serum and I would definitely recommend this beauty if you are in need of an eye cream that helps to re-energise and revitalize the skin around the eyes!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Jurlique Purely Age-Defying Collection is aimed towards those who wish to minimise the appearance of wrinkles/fine lines, improve skin tightness and boost the smoothness of skin. The latest addition to the Jurlique Purely Age-Defying Collection is the Firming and Tightening Serum, which is a wrinkle smoothing concentrate. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Jurlique Purely Age-Defying Firming and Tightening Serum contains a new Active-Firm Complex comprised of a blend of botanicals such as Oat Kernel extract, Beech Tree Bud extract and Tapioca starch to improve the appearance of skin while providing intense hydration for healthy-looking skin! </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">My skin lacks the essential nutrients and skin smoothing components to make it appear youthful, so using a serum that helps to provide a boost in these ingredients and prolong the aging process is something that I've found in Jurlique's </span><span style="font-size: small;">Purely Age-Defying Firming and Tightening Serum. The serum is housed in a very convenient glass bottle with a pump and two full pumps is adequate to apply a thin layer all over the face and neck. The consistency of this serum is very thin, which allows for a quick and easy application over the skin. The formula absorbs quite quickly and doesn't leave any traces of product or sticky residues. My skin feels nicely hydrated, though not sufficiently hydrated. So, applying a moisturiser after applying serum helps to lock in skin hydration. Although I haven't noticed any dramatic changes in my very fine lines, I have noticed that my skin looks and feels more plump and soft. With continual use of this facial serum, I sure do hope my skin remains youthful and appear more radiant! </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Jurlique skincare products are all developed from natural and organic ingredients to compliment the skin, which is why it is important to ensure that you use their products before the expiry date printed on the base of each bottle. Natural-based formulas made by Jurlique have worked so well with my skin in the past, which is why Jurlique is one of my favourite skin care brands! </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Imperial Leather Master Perfumers have just launched their brand new range of handwash and bodywash that have been formulated with a delicate mix of exotic and invigorating scents! Scent is a crucial characteristics in handwash and bodywash as it really does effect your mood and make you feel relaxed, content and stress-free. Well, to me that's how I usually feel! </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Psychologist Sabina Read explains, <i>''fragrance is commonly linked to our mood and behaviour via learned emotional responses associated with smells and past experiences. If we smell roses while visiting a sick loved one in hospital, the smell may evoke sadness or grief; however if we first smell roses after giving birth, we will most likely associate that smell with feelings of joy and love. Therefore fragrance plays a powerful role in mood and emotion across the lifespan.''</i></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I love scents that are formulated with floral and plant extracts as it always reminds me of my favourite teas, which subsequently makes me feel soothed and relaxed on the inside. Furthermore, I also love fruity scents as it reminds me of all those times that I prepared crazy concoctions of fruit smoothies and salads during summer! </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Imperial Leather have been around for over 70 years to give people a
sense of happiness and luxury with the use of their wide-range of luxurious handwash
and bodywash collections. The Imperial Leather range is categorised into five Imperial Leather fragrance families and these include: classic, floral, fruity, citrus and gourmet. These past few weeks, I've been loving and indulging in the Imperial Leather No 42 Rockpool and No 19 Citrus Grove handwashes (A$3.99/250ml pump pack, A$5.99/500ml refill pack) and the Imperial Leather No 26 Summer Bliss bodywash (</span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">A$6.49/500ml pump pack, A$8.99/1L refill pack</span></span>). </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Imperial Leather No. 42 Rockpool Anti-bacterial Handwash features a luscious blend of Indian Lotus and Waterlily, and base notes of Iris, Musk and Spearmint flower, which invoke quite a decadent, bold and strong woody and floral fragrance. The bottle shown in the photo above is a huge 500ml refill bottle that can fill up 2 smaller pump bottles. The pump bottle on the right hand side is the Imperial Leather No.19 Citrus Grove Anti-bacterial Handwash that has a very citrusy scent made from Lemongrass and Ginger, and base notes of Orange, Red Berries, Peach, Jasmine and Amber extracts. My favourite between the two would be the citrus variation as it does leave me hands smelling citrus-fresh! The consistency is quite lovely as these handwashes gradually lather up from a gel to foam texture. Only a small dollop is sufficient to thoroughly cleanse my hands whilst leaving them feel moisturised. </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Imperial Leather No.26 Summer Bliss Bodywash features a luscious blend of Mango Butter and Frangipani. This wonderful fruity and floral scent really does fell indulgent and soothes my senses whilst in the shower. This bodywash feels super creamy and luscious that it sits nicely against my skin whilst cleaning my skin with a loofah. My skin feels wonderfully soft, smooth and well hydrated. Plus, the scent lingers for a short while before it slowly dissipates. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Overall, the luscious and creamy texture of these handwashes and bodywashes are truly incredible! I love these divine and invigorating scents as they make me feel like I'm living in luxury! I love the fact that Imperial Leather have created an extensive range of handwashes and bodywashes so that you could try different scents and fragrances each time you need a refill. The only problem in this is deciding which scent to try out next!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">That Moment Eau de Parfum (A$39/30ml, A$59/50ml, A$79/100ml) by English-Irish boy band One Direction is the second fragrance that launched after their popular and very first fragrance 'Our Moment'. The scent 'Our Moment' was a huge success when it was launched in August 2013, so this year, One Direction decided to launch a special edition fragrance called 'That Moment'. The fragrance also coincides with One Direction's 2014 World Stadium Tour, 'Where We Are'.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Harry Styles - <i>''The response to Our Moment was amazing! We are so pleased that so many of our fans liked it so much. Some people have already been asking 'what's next', so we've created a new version of Our Moment that takes some of the original notes, like creamy musk and patchouli and combines them with new scents such as refreshing cucumber, green apple and violet. We hope you like it as much as we do.''</i> </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">That Moment is housed in an alluring intricate baby pink glass bottle with an extravagant silver glass diamond crown lid. The bottle looks so beautiful and very girly, so it really does stand out from my other fragrance bottles sitting on my dresser. That Moment</span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> invokes a soft lingering scent with top notes of green apple, refreshing cucumber and sparkling tangerine, middle notes of delicate muguet, peony and violet and dry notes of patchouli, creamy musk and cedarwood. Although a soft and gentle scent, the lasting power goes through most of the day when sprayed to the hair, neck and wrists. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">If you love fruity, floral and musk scents and have sensitive olfactory senses, then That Moment is definitely one to try out! </span></span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The
latest innovative hairbrush to hit shelves this month is the new
'Tangleze' by Lady Jayne. Tangleze is an on-the-go detangling hairbrush that
assists in the ease of brushing detangled hair. The Tangleze is a
sleek-looking oval-shaped hairbrush with a hard-case lid, which makes it very
compact and practical as a handbag-essential. In addition, due to it's
lightweight body, the Tangleze hairbrush is a very convenient hair tool
to bring along whilst traveling out and about. </span></span></span></span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Brushing
is made easy as the oval-shape of Tangleze fits perfectly in the palm
of my hand to allow brushing with comfort and ease of control. The
Tangleze can be used to detangle hair that is wet or dry. After towel
drying my hair, I found that using the Tangleze made brushing through
all the knots so easy with minimal breakage of hair! </span></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The bristles are
made of sturdy plastic, so unlike most brushes, the Tangleze can help to
detangle hair with its strong bristles. Due to the structure and nature of the bristles, the Tangleze is best
used with a light hand to brush through the mid-length to ends of the
hair. For very difficult knots, using swift and light brushing movements will help to gently detangle hair. </span></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">As you can see in the photos below, the Tangleze has dual-length bristles to help minimise any damage to hair, especially when you're trying to tackle knots that are difficult to breakthrough. The bristles are also distanced equally from one another, which helps to allow ease of brushing. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #e06666;"><b>Foltene Eyelash & Eyebrow Treatment (A$20.95/10ml, full-sized product received) -</b></span> I was intrigued when I saw an eyelash & eyebrow treatment by Italian brand Foltene, as I've never thought of trying to enhance the growth of the lashes and eyebrow. If you have thin and fragile eyelashes and eyebrows then this formula may assist to give you stronger, thicker and longer eyelashes and eyebrows. The core ingredient is Tricalgoxyl which is a common ingredient, used by expert scientists at Foltene Laboratories, that is used to prevent hair loss. The colorless formula is applied to the lashes/brows using the mascara wand and overtime the formula will help to encourage the growth and strengthen your lashes/brows. The scent of the formula is a tad overpowering for my liking, so if you have sensitive eyes, be sure to use this formula with caution. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Clear Scalp & Hair Beauty Therapy's new intense Hydration Hair Care Line has just landed in-stores to ensure your hair is moisturised, strong and beautiful, rather than looking dry and weak. Approximately 90% of the strength of our hair emanates from the scalp, so when you expose your scalp to a hair-dryer and warm water from showering, your hair subsequently loses it's essential moisture that causes a reduction in the strength of hair. </span></span></div>

The packaging is quite appealing being tall and slim just like the entire Clear Scalp & Hair Beauty Therapy line. I found that it was very easy to dispense a sufficient amount of product, however, when it comes down to the last 20 or so mLs, it is quite difficult to salvage the last amount of product. As mentioned earlier, the bottles are quite sturdy and also, they are not so malleable to allow easy compression to squeeze out the last volume of product. To overcome this, I've had to ensure that the bottles are stored up-side-down so that the last amount of product sits at lid. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The consistency of the Shampoo is relatively thick compared to most shampoos I've used in the past, which means that only a small 20cent-sized amount is adequate for one application. The same goes with the conditioner as you could see in the photos that the formula appears like a thick cream. I quite like the consistency as it was very easy to lather the product through my hair. My hair felt beautifully silky smooth and so soft to touch, I was amazed as to how effective these two products transformed my hair to become more hydrated and lustrous. The scent of these products also smell utterly divine! The scent reminds me of fresh berries! Although a little overpowering for my liking, the berry scent did leave my hair smelling fresh after washing my hair. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">All in all, I am very much in love with both the Clear Scalp & Hair Beauty Therapy Intense Hydration Shampoo & Conditioner as my hair looks and feels a lot more healthy and beautiful inside-out! </span></span><br />

Not only did I receive an amazing assortment of beauty products on my July Violet Box, but everything was housed in a new type of Violet Box! Instead of the usual matte black box with a magnetic flap closure, my Violet Box was white with a black pull out drawer and signature purple tab to pull it out! The new packaging is super cute and easily re-usable! Love it!!</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Dove Pure Care Dry Oil Nourishing Treatment (A$19/99/100ml) is the latest and greatest hair treatment product that I've been using during this chilly and cold winter season here in Australia. I've been using quite a number of hair oils as of late and Dove's new Pure Care Dry Oil is one that comes at an affordable price tag that's not only effective but very beneficial for the health of my long and thick locks! The transparent formula of this star beauty is infused with African Macadamia Oil to replenish, nourish and pamper the hair while leaving my hair feeling weightless, non-greasy, free-flowing and uber shiny and soft! The
warm oriental fragrance of this hair oil isn't so sweet smelling to my personal taste, however, the scent does dissipate after a short period. </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Dove Pure Care Dry Oil is housed in a sleek and sophisticated golden glass bottle with a pump dispenser. A couple of pumps is plenty to gently massage the product through the midlengths to the ends of my hair. I usually apply this golden liquid of hair elixir to my towel-dried hair and also after heat-styling my hair. This way, my hair remains nourished and hydrated most of the time! For added nourishment and hydration you could also use this formula as a pre-wash to dry hair (approx. 30 mins before shampooing), in-wash for enhanced treatment (just add one pump to your conditioner, mask or leave-in treatment) and/or post-wash for hydration (just add 3-4 drops to damp hair for more manageable hair prior to blow-drying). </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">ELES Cosmetics is an Australian beauty brand that has captured my heart since I was first introduced to this brand in 2012.

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">There
are two blush collections by ELES Cosmetics and these are the Mineral
Blush (A$39.50/4g) and Mineral Matte Blush (featured in this post). I've
explored the ELES Cosmetics Mineral Blush collection in the shades Rose
Marble (plum/rose shade) and Mixed Berries (rosey pink shade) (reviewed
<a href="http://www.thebeautyofredroses.blogspot.com.au/search/label/ELES%20Cosmetics" target="_blank">here</a>)
and I absolutely adore the high pigmentation these blushes offer to
achieve excellent staying power! On the other hand, the Mineral Matte
Blush in Adobe allows for a beautiful soft natural glow to the
complexion whilst providing dimension to the face.</span></span></span></span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">ELES Cosmetics Mineral Matte Blush is infused with pearlescent
matte pigments and is available in two shades: #01 Adobe and #02
Flirt. The shade Adobe is a gorgeous light coral/nude shade that suits light to medium skin tones. Using a duo fibre brush or a blush brush, I found
that it was very easy to pick up sufficient amount of product to leave a
soft matte and natural look to the cheeks. </span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">To apply, simple sweep the brush over the cheeks and then blend along the cheekbones towards the temple region. The matte pigments are jet milled to help blend the Mineral Matte Blush and achieve a beautiful
velvety matte glow to the complexion. I love the soft natural look Adobe appears and it really does make a great contouring product for a simple and natural everyday look during the winter season. </span></span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The shade Dark Taupe is perfect for those who have dark brows that need definition and shading. I love how easy it was to define my brows to add emphasis to the arch and tail of my brows. The BrowBlender blends in beautifully and my brows look very natural. It was very easy to perfect my brows in a few simple and easy steps:</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">1. Outline the upper and lower border of the brow with a light hand</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">2. Neatly extend the the trail to structure and define the brow </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">3. Carefully fill-in the brows using short feathered strokes</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">4. Use an angled brow brush to diffuse the strokes and achieve well-groomed brows</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The </span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">BrowBlender in the shade Dark Taupe</span></span></span></span> is quite pigmented, so it is important to use a soft hand to define and shade. The </span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">BrowBlender</span></span> does not smudge nor fade easily, so there is no need to touch up during the day! For a winter beauty look, the </span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">BrowBlender</span></span> is a must-have to groom and define the brows! </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">SachaJuan is a luxury hair care, hair styling and body care label that launched in 1997 in the heart of Stockholm (the capital of Sweden) by two highly recognised hairdressers, Sacha Mitic and Juan Rosenlind. SachaJuan landed in Aussie shores in 2013 and I was lucky enough to have the chance to trial the most raved about Sachajuan hair care product known as the SachaJuan Intensive Hair Oil (A$50.00/50ml). The Intensive Hair Oil aims to help restore the lustre and shine in hair, repair dry and damaged locks and protect hair from harsh environmental aggressors.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">My hair is probably at its worst state during the winter season, so
it is a must for me to use hair serums, oils and heat protectant
products to keep my hair looking naturally soft, shiny and beautiful. I've been using the SachaJuan Intensive Hair Oil as a treatment product which can be used as an all-in-one hair serum, oil and protectant! I love multitasking products! I normally apply to the mid-lengths and ends to lock-in moisture and ensure my hair is less unruly and more manageable. You could also apply the Intensive Hair Oil to damp or dry hair. I tend to use this product after towel drying my hair and also after styling my hair.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Intensive Hair Oil is housed in a slimline glass bottle with a very simplistic white label. The pump bottle is super convenient as it allows dispensing the desired amount without any mess. </span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The consistency of the Intensive Hair Oil is lightweight and very thin, so a 10 cent coin sized amount is adequate to apply to long and thick hair. It was very easy to evenly apply the hair oil to the strands of my hair, leaving my hair looking and feeling silky smooth and soft. The formula is enriched with Argan Oil to nourish the hair and Vitamin- and Amino Acid- rich Sea Buckthorn Oil to repair and protect hair. The scent is relatively strong, though not too overpowering. Sometimes the scent that lingers after application, makes me feel like I've just stepped out of a luxurious and lavish hair salon!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Sukin is an Australian brand that offers a range of eco-friendly, natural and affordable skin, hair and body care products. Sukin utilises a myriad of natural and organic botanical extracts and essential oils to boost the vitality and luminosity of skin. All Sukin products are vegan & cruelty free, free from harsh chemicals such as Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (SLS), Sodium Laureth Sulphate (SLES), synthetic fragrances, animal derivatives, harsh detergents, propylene glycol, artificial colours, triethanolamine, mineral oils, EDTA or parabens, and the packaging (e.g. boxes, bottles and packets) of all products are recyclable. Sukin has such a strong focus on not only restoring the natural beauty of skin but also ensuring that the production of their products do not impact our environment. I've been a huge fan of Sukin for quite some time now and I'd always recommend their products to family and friends.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Winter is the season where skin tends to become dry and in need of moisture, hydration and essential oils to restore and improve skin structure.

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The </span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #e06666;"><b>Sukin Cream Cleanser</b></span> is one of the two formulations of cleansers in the range, the other being the Foaming Facial Cleanser that I reviewed a while ago <a href="http://thebeautyofredroses.blogspot.com.au/2012/04/skincare-regime-with-sukin.html" target="_blank">here</a>. The Cream Cleanser is a white opaque and light cream formula that is ideal for those who have dry and/or mature skin types. This cleanser would be a suitable cleanser for me to use during winter. The consistency of this Cream Cleanser is just about right for my liking (not too thick or runny) and it feels uber hydrating and nourishing once I gentle massage the Cream Cleanser in circular motions. The scent of the formula is quite lovely as it provides a subtle botanical aroma. The formula is infused with essential oils of Rose hip, Avocado and Wheat Germ to help nourish and hydrate the skin, while Aloe Vera, Burdock, Horsetail and Nettle assist to thoroughly cleanse and refresh the skin. My skin feels beautifully clean and revived without feeling tight nor dry. The formula is also gentle enough to remove residual impurities on the surface of my skin, leaving it feeling squeaky clean! </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #e06666;"><b>Sukin Revitalising Facial Scrub</b></span> is a non-abrasive facial scrub that contains Bamboo extracts </span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;">and ground Walnut Shells </span>to refine and exfoliate the skin and </span><span style="font-size: small;">Aloe Vera, Chamomile, Jojoba Oil, Rose Hip Oil and Sesame Oil to nourish the skin. Facial scrubs are a must in my skin care routine as my skin needs exfoliation to thoroughly deep cleanse those pesky pores and allow for smooth and clean skin. I've been using the Revitalising Facial Scrub every second day for a week and it really does help to nourish and vitalise my skin! My skin doesn't feel dry at all as the nourishing ingredients and essential oils help to lock in the moisture the skin needs. The consistency of the scrubs gives a very gentle amount of 'oomph' to scrub the skin without being too harsh. For those of you who prefer facial scrubs that are gentle to the skin, then this beauty is one for you to trial. I prefer using scrubs where I could literally feel the exfoliating action whilst gentle massaging the product, so I would need to use an alternative scrub to achieve that amount of force. </span><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The <span style="color: #e06666;"><b>Sukin Purifying Body Scrub</b></span> is one of my favourite Sukin products that I reviewed previously <a href="http://thebeautyofredroses.blogspot.com.au/2014/02/sukin-purifying-body-scrub.html" target="_blank">here</a>. I absolutely LOVE the sweet scent of this scrub as it reminds me of almond croissants! The creamy formula of this Purifying Body Scrub contains micro particles of Bamboo extracts and ground Walnut Shells and the creamy formula is infused with Aloe Vera, Chamomile, Jojoba Oil, Rose Hip Oil and Sesame Oil to nourish and hydrate the skin. The core ingredients are exactly the same as the Revitalising Facial Scrub, however, the consistency of this Purifying Body Scrub is more dense. I love how the consistency of this scrub is not too harsh nor gentle, it's just the perfect consistency to slough away dead skin cells to leave the skin feeling silky soft, smooth and smelling sweet after application! I love this scrub to bits!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #e06666;"><b>Sukin Hydrating Body Lotion</b></span> is a super nourishing lotion that is infused with the goodness of Aloe Vera, Nettle, Horsetail, Burdock to nourish the skin and Rose Hip, Avocado and Jojoba Oils to hydrate the skin. Sukin Hydrating Body Lotion helps to restore the skin's moisture balance and soothe dry parched skin. The scent is reminiscent of the sweet aroma of vanilla which lingers for a while after application. The consistency of this body lotion is very thin and absorbs quickly into the skin once applied. The body lotion leaves a nice matte finish without any greasy or sticky feel to the skin. My skin dries up so quickly during winter so I've been using this body lotion twice daily to maintain the moisture level of my body. I absolutely enjoyed using this body lotion, especially because it hydrates my skin so well and that it leaves a beautiful indulgent scent after application! </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Overall, the quality of Sukin face and body products are beautifully natural and phenomenal, being infused with lush botanical extracts and essential oils. My skin feels wonderful after using these products and it's fantastic that Sukin products are so affordable! Another characteristic of these Sukin products that I love is that the tubed products come with a foil seal, so they are guaranteed fresh upon the first application. I highly recommend their products for winter as that are definitely worth your while!</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I was very fortunate to be a part of Violet Box from the very start! I've got to say that Violet Box has done a terrific job in putting a smile on my dial every month I've received my Violet Box! I love that every month, there is always a variety of beauty delights, including hair care, skin care and cosmetic products. Violet Box just gets better and better, month after month, and I'm sure they will maintain their goal to bring new, innovative and exciting beauty products so that we could all explore and play with!</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Instead of receiving the usual black Violet Box signature box, I received all the beauty contents housed in a cosmetic pouch and everything was all packaged in a padded parcel bag. It was a nice surprise to receive something totally unexpected! </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></span></div>

I received a full sized bottle of ghd Straight & Tame Cream (A$24.00/120ml) which is designed to help tame and transform messy, unruly and unmanageable hair. The opaque white cream has a nice consistency with a refreshing scent and the formula contains Vitamins B5, C and E to nourish and hydrate hair. I've been using a few pumps of this cream after towel drying my hair it really does help to make my hair easier to brush through and style. </span></span></div>

I always use a makeup base/primer when applying makeup, so this handy cream by Bioderma will be put to good use!</span></span></div>

I love the effect this highlighter gives to brighten and widen my eyes, so I was super excited to receive another product from Chella in this month's Violet Box. The Chella Brow Pencil (A$21.50, full size received) is a very fine and thin mechanical pencil which helps to colour and define the brows. I never ever leave my brows untreated, so it was interesting to try this brow pencil. I love how fine the pencil is, so it really does help to define the brows without any error. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Strange Beautiful is a totally brand new brand to me! Jane Schub is the designer behind Strange Beautiful and she is a graduate from the Rhode Island School of Design. Strange Beautiful is a nail polish brand that house a vast collection of nail polish shades that are deliberately nameless. This is quite strange, as I've never come across nail polish shades without a shade name/number. The Strange Beautiful Nail Polish duo (A$22/set) I received is full size and includes a vibrant fire-engine red shade and an elegant beige/nude shade.</span></span></div>

I was able to achieve a completely opaque finish with one coat of the red shade and two coats of the beige shade. The shades are beautiful pigmented and presents a vibrant, glossy and creamy finish to my nails!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Appelles is a new hair care brand that I've heard about so many times, but I never had the chance to try it out myself. The Blackseed Shampoo (A$18.95/150ml and A$44.95/500ml, 60ml sample received) is infused with rosemary, ylang ylanf and lavadin super, the scent of this shampoo is incredibly divine that it makes me feel revitalised!

This is the first time I've received a cosmetic pouch as part of my Violet Box subscription. This Caddy Cosmetic Pouch (A$26/each) is quite compact as it contains two large compartments where one compartment can be used to carry bulky items and the second compartment can be used to store eye pencils, mascara, lipsticks and brushes etc. The material is very sturdy, so it will keep your skincare and makeup essentials safe and sound!</div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: small;">Kérastase Cristalliste Luminous Perfecting Masque (A$60/200ml) is a hair treatment mask that is ideal for use on dry and long hair to achieve lightweight, luminous and luscious locks. My hair is long and thick which requires a lot of attention and maintenance, so this hair mask is the perfect treatment to transform my hair to reveal full volume and healthy looking hair. The formula is enriched with three core ingredients: a Polymer derived from Glucose to facilitate
blow-drying, a Dry Oil for intense nourishment and hydration, and both Candellia Cera and Ceramides to protect hair
against external aggressors. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: small;">To use this Luminous Perfecting Masque, apply a small dollop to towel-dried hair, massage the product through the lengths and ends, leave in for 5 minutes and then rinse out with lukewarm water. I always treat my hair with a hair mask once a week to ensure my hair stays healthy and luminous. </span></div>

While rinsing the product from my hair my hair felt incredibly silky and velvety smooth and I run my fingers through my hair under the shower head. My hair feels beautiful nourished and well hydrated. This is just what my hair needs! </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Kérastase
Cristalliste Cristal Sculpt Dual Gloss Serum (A$45/30ml) is a luminous
double gloss sculpting serum that helps to boost the shine and radiance
in hair. The Dual Gloss Serum contains two liquid components that are
very thin in consistency. Both components are dispensed simultaneously
from the pump bottle before you can mix the two formulas in the palms of
your hands and apply to your hair. The transparent serum is an an
aqueous based formula that contains Alpha Hydroxy Acid to help smooth
the structure of hair while the light pink coloured gloss helps to boost
shine with the presence of 'liquid mirror'
particles. I found it quite interesting that this serum exists in the
form of two components where each component has it's own benefit and
action to improve the structure and nature of hair. </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">To use this Dual Gloss Serum, apply 1-2 pumps to your palm and mix thoroughly to obtain a homogeneous mixture. Apply to wet/dry or towel-dried hair and work the product through the mid-lengths and ends of your hair. I prefer using this Dual Gloss Serum after towel drying my hair as this is the point where my hair becomes quite unmanageable. The best way to apply is to start form the ends and work your way to the mid-lengths of hair. Running my fingers through my hair while applying the Dual Gloss Serum helps to break free tangled sections of hair. Leave the Dual Gloss Serum in your hair and do not rinse out. This Dual Gloss Serum can also be used with styling irons and before blow drying, so it is quite a versatile product that helps to lock in moisture and strength to your hair. </span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The scent of this Dual Gloss Serum is quite fragrant and invokes a pleasant and crisp floral scent that leaves my hair smelling lovely and fresh like a bouquet of flowers! The consistency of the Dual Gloss Serum is very lightweight, so I've had to use at least two full pumps to thoroughly apply the product to my long and thick hair. The serum doesn't weight my hair down at all, which is a great plus as my hair normally feels unmanageable, messy and difficult to work with. I love how this serum can be used to prep and protect the hair before using heat styling tools or a dryer. My hair feels silky smooth, less coarse and less frizzy to the point where I feel like my hair is getting a good dose of nutrients to help strengthen and tame my hair. My hair feels a lot more manageable and easy to style as the formula does help to leave my hair tangle-free!</span></span></div>

of four 'tropicalicious' mini nail lacquers! Such a cute
name!! What's more to love about these shades is their quirky names! I love how OPI are always so creative with naming their shades.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Next Stop... The Bikini Zone is a purple/grey duochrome shade, described by OPI as an amethyst-toned pewter, contains an abundance of miniscule silver glitters. This shade is surprisingly very sheer, so I would suggest using this shade as a top coat over any dark and bold shade. </span></span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">One of my most loved hair treatment products is the luxurious Kérastase Elixir Ultime Hair Oil (A$55/125ml) which aims to beautify and enrich hair with 4 key emollient and nourishing ingredients: Maize, Argan, Camellia and Pracaxi oils. My long and thick hair needs a regular boost in nourishing and hydrating ingredients as it does tend to go dry during the cooler seasons when I always opt for nice warm showers. Additionally, my daily hair regime of using a hair-dryer and heat-styling tools just adds to the damage done to my hair. The great thing about this Kérastase Elixir Ultime Hair Oil is that you can distribute the oil to dry or wet hair and you can also use it in 5 different ways:</span></span></div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Heat protectant: to create a barrier while providing protection against heat damage </span></span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Pre-wash: to prep the hair before cleansing and allowing the hair to be tangle-free</span></span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Leave-in conditioner: to lock in the nourishing benefits of the core ingredients. I sometimes leave in a couple of drops in my hair after showering and before going to bed</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Finishing product: to maximise shine, protection and nourish the hair</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Re-touch: just re-apply a couple of drops to re-nourish and tame the hair</span></span></li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The transparent elixir is very thin in consistency and once I apply a couple of drops to the
mid-lengths and ends of my hair it immediately feels weightless and
silky soft! My hair looks shiny, healthy and well nourished! This product is my go-to product every time I feel that my hair is lacking moisture and shine and needs protection. The oil reduces the amount of frizz and flyaways that develop after styling my hair, so it's just a great bonus that this one product can transform my hair to look naturally beautiful and impeccable! </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I admire beauty brands who have a strong focus on producing certified organic and eco-friendly products that complement everyday hair, skin and body regimes! I was recently introduced to the brand Villa Lodola who follows this vision on delivering eco-organic hair and body products. Villa Lodola was first established in an official plantation located in the hills of the Upper Tiber Valley in Umbria, Italy. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Today I will be reviewing the Oily Scalp </span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Clay Treatment</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> (A$17.95/100ml) and </span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Shampoo </span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">(A$17.95/250ml), which aims to control and balance the natural oils across the scalp. Those who develop excessive sebum (natural essential oils which help to moisturise and replenish the scalp) may end up with a dry scalp which leads to dandruff. My scalp is somewhat a little oilier than a normal person would have, which is why I sometimes develop teeny tiny flakes of drandruff near my scalp. I've been treating my hair with both the </span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Oily Scalp </span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Clay Treatment</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> (on a thrice-weekly basis) and </span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Shampoo (daily basis) for the last fortnight and the results are thankfully positive! </span></span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The Villa Lodola Oily Scalp Clay Treatment is a cleansing treatment used to treat excessive sebaceous secretion. This Clay Treatment is to be used like a facial mask to help control the production sebum from the scalp.</span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The Villa Lodola Oily</span></span> Clay Treatment contains the following active ingredients: White Clay, Organic Willow and Silver Birch extract. </span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The White Clay ingredient is rich in minerals and trace elements (e.g. iron, aluminium, potassium, boron and sulphur) which help to absorb excess sebum production, impurities and toxins from the scalp. The Willow and Birch ingredients assist to regulate sebum while provide purifying action on the scalp. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">To apply the creamy Oily Scalp Clay Treatment, apply a small dollop to dry hair along the front, side and back hairline. Then, gently work the product through along and over the scalp by racking it in with the fingertips. Once the scalp is completely covered in the </span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Oily Scalp Clay Treatment, leave in place to around 5 minutes, then gradually add water and massage the product onto the scalp until the product lathers up regular shampoo. Wash and rinse the hair and continue washing the hair with shampoo. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The scent of this Oily Scalp Clay Treatment is subtle yet quite indulgent as the aroma of the botanical florals and plants just makes me feel soothed and relaxed. The method of application was quite easy to accomplish as the formula wasn't too runny nor thick, so it was super easy to work through the product to envelop my scalp. Unlike a facial mask, this Oily Scalp Clay Treatment does not dry while you leave it in for 5 minutes. When rinsing the product from the scalp, it lathers only slightly to thoroughly cleanse the scalp. It does take time for this clay treatment to work, as I only noticed a reduction in dandruff after about 4-5 uses. After rinsing the product from my scalp I then used the Villa Lodola Oily Scalp Shampoo to cleanse my locks. </span></span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Villa Lodola Oily Scalp Shampoo helped to further cleanse my oily scalp and hair without causing any irritation or drying of the scalp. The core active ingredients include Organic Willow and Birch extracts which assist the regulation of sebum production from the scalp. The scent of this shampoo is very subtle and pleasant, so it doesn't leave a lingering scent after washing my hair. I've been using a generous dollop of shampoo which slowly lathers up in between my long and thick hair. Beneath the cap of the screw top bottle reveals a plastic material which helps to control the flow of product. This helps to avoid dispensing excessive product. Although my scalp felt refreshed and well cleansed, my long locks did feel rather dry and lacked moisture, so for me, it was necessary to use conditioner to nourish and hydrate my hair. Despite this, both my scalp and hair did feel fresh and clean after using the clay treatment, shampoo and my usual conditioner. </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Villa Lodola Oily Scalp Clay Treatment and Shampoo worked together to help gradually control excessive sebum production from scalp, however, I would recommend using conditioner to finish cleansing and nourishing the hair. Results were not immediate, however, after continual use, my scalp did appear to produce less and less dandruff over time. If you love hair products that are organic certified and eco-friendly, then I would definitely recommend the Villa Lodola range! </span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The
formula is highly pigmented, creamy in texture and hydrating
to the lips! The coverage felt quite heavy once I applied the lipstick
straight from the bullet, so it was necessary to blot the lips with
tissue to allow the formula to set and stay in place. The longevity was
great and the formula lasted a good 4-5 hours before fading was
noticeable when drinking or eating. The shades Piccadilly Pink and </span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">As You Want Victoria are very pigmented shades which eventually left a lovely stain to my lips towards the end of the day</span></span>.
Since the formula was uber moisturising, my lips didn't dry out at all,! They remained moisturised and beautifully stained all day. The finish
of this lipstick provided a beautiful glossy veil to my lips and the
intense colour of both of these shades always brightens my overall
makeup look! </span></span><br />
