Browsing in Hair Care

If you are also one of the abusers of hair, frequent rebonding, curling, hair color and etc, I am sure that you too have a problem of dry and frizzy hair.

Through out the years of me trying different brands of hair products, I am glad to say that I have found a perfect leave in conditioner for my hair, and it comes in spray!

When I met Mr Yuan the first and last time, I remember asking him when will there be Yuan shampoo. And now my question has been answered. It is here already!

yuan tangerine shampoo

Presenting you - Yuan Tangerine Shampoo for oily scalp and long hair.

The very original packaging. Some of you might know that my oily scalp has been quite irritating and I have to wash my hair 2x a day to keep the itch down. Yeah I know it’s bad to wash 2x a day, but when my scalp itches so badly, I really couldn’t care much.

About a month ago, I started using Yuan Tangerine Shampoo.

For my length, I pour out about a palm-ful of shampoo.

It smells really tangerine! Love the citrus and refreshing scent.

To my surprise, it lathers up quite well. Usually shampoo like this is not foamy.

To use it:

1. Lather the product.
2. Massage on wet hair.
3. Rinse it off.
4. Hair conditioner is not necessary.

True that, even without the use of hair conditioner, my hair does not tangle like crazy!

After using this shampoo for about a month, I noticed something. My hair would will be oily after a day, but the itch has calmed down quite a bit now! It might look greasy but my scalp does not itch.  :)

So I am glad to say that I only wash my hair at night now, once a day!

Available here @ RM75.50. Yes, I know about the ‘ouch!’ for a bottle for 250ml shampoo. But if you have been going through some itchy scalp hell, I am sure the amount wouldn’t hurt too bad.

Coming towards the end of 2009, it feels like 31/12/2008 was just a week ago!

But, 2009 has been a fun year, with more gatherings, makeup and food :) I am sure 2010 will be a better one for all of us.

For last DIY of the year, I bought a box of Hoyu Beauteen Hair Color. Everything comes in the box. The mixture, the comb, and even a pair of disposable gloves!

To be honest, I had really many many many doubts when I bought this. Will I spoil my hair? What if the color turns out like shit? What if I ruin my scalp and I become bald?

But after asking for some opinions, I decided to try it out.

hoyu2

Hair before. I colored my hair 2 years ago and some of the ends still showing the color.

Follow the instruction and pour the first powder in first.

Shake shake left right up down for about 60x. (Manual is included). Then continue to add the tube of color in and shake shake.

For some reasons, the mixture was still in white! I wonder why there was no trace of the hair color.  After applying onto your hair evenly, leave it for 15-30 minutes (depending on how light you want your hair to be). I left mine for about 20 mins. Wash off then mask with the extra hair mask included in the box.

And oh yeah, I asked for my sister’s help for coloring the hair at the back.

FAQ is included at the end of the post.

Some time ago, the kind people at Inuovi has offered to send me the Inuovi Liquid Pencil (Eyeliner.Brow Definer) in black for review. But i have been delaying the review because I could not find the best way to use it, it kept smudging on me and color was not black enough for me.

BUT, all the myths were solved till I consulted Bob, the make up guru for the proper use.

And now, I have to say, I really like it a lot!!!!

Inuovi Liquid Pencil (Eyeliner.Brow Definer)

Price: USD$13

The description on site:

Be doubly enticed by this revolutionary 2-in-1 brow and liner pencil. Use dry for a powdery application to achieve perfectly defined and natural looking brows or dampen the lead to glide onto the lash line like a true kohl pencil. Smudge-resistant and long lasting.

Swatch on hand.

What’s so special about it is: It can be used to touch up eyebrow as well as eyeliner!

The dry-use:

Before using

Before doing anything. Usually I am very lazy to draw my brow, but sometimes when I accidentally over-shave, I will have to top it up.

using Inuovi Liquid Pencil (Eyeliner.Brow Definer)

Draw a thin line. Then blend it a bit with a spoolie. If you do not have a spoolie in hand, you can use Q-tip to smudge it as an emergency tool.

After smudging

The result. It is not extremely black, so, my brow still looks normal from a far.

The wet-use:

inuovi5

Spray water on the pencil a little to wet it, and you can use your own eyeliner brush to pick up the color for more intense, and longer lasting liner.
