Hair Rejuvenation Treatment

http://www.hairandme.com.au

RRP: $19.95

My hair has had a hard tough life. You name it I've most likely tried it! From every hair craze or
trend which come and go as often as I wash my hair! Teasing, straightening, back combing, curling,
crimping, dying, chalking, bleaching.... it's all been there!

My latest obsession of late has been gradually going back to blonde. I used to bleach the absolute
crap out of my hair in my late teens/early 20's admittedly completely damaging the crap out of it to
the point of it beginning to fall out! And even then I couldn't stop. I loooved being a blondie!

So I am going back! But this time instead of DIY-ing, I'm leaving it to a professional and visiting the
salon. I am a jack of many trades, lightening my hair safely and properly is definitely not one of them!

Even though I have been lightening my hair gradually, going lighter means hair is always going to
be under more stress than usual and that means lots of TLC is required.

That's where this Hair & Me Rejuvenation Treatment has recently stepped into my routine to help!

This treatment contains coconut, macadamia, jojoba and almond oils which sounds like a delicious

blend all in itself so I am sure I don't need to go convincing you on just how wonderful and

deeply moisturising and nourishing it is to your hair. Not to mention the smell! Omg, the scent

of this treatment is 100% delicious and reminds me of one of my favourite sweet treats - Coconut Ice!

Sooo, as a blogger it's my passion to talkabout and share this stuff so don't even try to stop me,

I can't and won't so don't even try, it's impossible! (Just ask my husband!) ;)

To me, this oily mix seems ultra concentrated because I found even a small amount (about the same

amount you would use to shampoo your hair) to be sufficient to get the job done. Even on my long

and relatively thick hair, the combination of oils seem to coat every strand of hair completely.

(Left - My hair after a few applications. So silky smooth & healthy! Right - With the treatment worked through my hair.)

Once the recommended time is up (30-45 minutes) and it's time to shampoo the treatment out, even

as I am rinsing I can feel the difference in how my hair feels. It is smoother and silkier as I let the

warm water rinse the oils away. Feeling like most of it has fused into the cuticles of each strand.

Once dry it has been a whole lot easier to manage! I don't even straighten it as much anymore

because the main reason I straighten my hair in the first place is to keep the constant frizz under

control, but now there is a whole lot less of that I can give my hair a break and let my natural

waves be wild and free ... and they actually behave themselves! No really! Now I can leave my hair

out loose the whole day without having to shove it up in a high pony or messy bun half way through

because my hair has driven me crazy and I just can't take it anymore!

Vegan friendly & cruelty free! What's not to love?!

clear to me their other products are probably worth a look at too!

JOJOBA

Beauty Is In Our Nature!

100% Natural Ultimate Jojoba
Youth Potion
Jojoba With Added Vitamins & Antioxidants!
RRP: $39.95 (50ml)

Having recently introducing oils into my everyday skincare routine I have been finding the
benefits really rewarding! This particular one has especially taken my fancy as it's ingredients
are so natural, raw and pure. I love that concept and it seems my skin is as well!

I am so in love with this beautiful, elegant frosted, glass bottle complete with it's golden lid and
natural smelling contents. All you need to do is apply two pumps from the bottle to your fingers
and gently massage into the skin on your face, neck and décolletage.

Jojoba oil won't add an extra oily film to your skin or block your pores as you might imagine that putting an oil onto an already oily face might do.
My skin isn't oily, however it is acne prone, so the last thing I want to do is add extra oil to it.
Jojoba oil is different though as it is completely natural and actually soaks right into
your skin leaving it feel smooth and soft. Not at all greasy or oily I promise you!

The 100% Jojoba mixed with an array of other natural oils including - Camellia, Meadowfoam,
Baobab, Argan, CoQ10, Linden Blossom and Manuka work together to help smooth out
any wrinkles, balance uneven skin tone, enhance it's texture and moisturise it deep within the skin.

Redness Reducing Balm
Calming Balm Enriched With Antioxidants!
RRP: $39.95 (85ml)

This has fast become my new favourite facial moisturiser! As far as the feeling you get from a
product on your face. This is up there with the best I've ever tried! This is a Redness Reducing
Balm, which is perfect for those with sensitive, dry and combination skin types.

My skin is normal, however I occasionally suffer from random small red rashes on my neck every now and again
for whatever reason is anyones guess? My sister gets it too, more so than me as her
skin is fairer so maybe it's hereditary? Regardless, this still works great on
making my skin feel incredibly hydrated, soothed and looking radiant!

The product has been clinically proven to increase collagen production and elastin by up to
80.6% and 63.2% respectively. The Jojoba plant is very interesting because it is actually
the only plant to produce wax esters which similar to own skin's sebum which helps our
skin to retain moisture. As we age this doesn't work as well so this is where an oil like
Jojoba can help as it works identically to our skin in the the same way it does to it's own plant cells.
So if these claims are true, then I need no more convincing to
keep on using it! I want my skin to keep on producing that stuff by the bucketload as I age!

This product also comes housed in a very classy frosted glass unique shaped bottle with a pump
top to dispense the product easily and mess free. The scent is slightly different to the Natural
Ultimate Jojoba Youth Potion, yet you can sense the similarities and recognise the Jojoba as the
dominate ingredient immediately, yet it isn't an overpowering perfume fragrance so it is safe for
those with sensitive senses!

Just some of the ingredients designed to help soothe and moisturise the skin include -
Water, Jojoba, Purslane, Vitamin E, Cucumber, Green Tea, Aloe Vera, Seabuckthorn,
Chamomile, Lavender, Pomegranate, Peppermint & Chamomile Roman.
