Hey Beautiful People

 

So hair lets talk it... or lets talk dandruff... I was a major sufferer which in naturally dark hair is NOT attractive. I had tried everything I could possibly get my hands on with no luck until I discovered LUSH!! So I wandered around the store for a while picking things up smelling them etc then i found the solid shampoo bars!

 

Soak & Float is specifically designed to get rid of dandruff here is a little description taken direct from the Lush web store

 

Effective anti-dandruff shampoo bar that smells like tar. Cade oil gives Soak and Float its distinctive smell of freshly made tar. Cade oil works against the microbes that cause dandruff and let’s face it, you’d rather smell of tar than have flaked skin all over the shoulders of your cool black outfit, wouldn’t you? We add lavender oil to help your scalp get back into condition and to make it a bit less stinky.
 

Lush is correct in saying Soak  & Float (S&F) is a bit on the nose, its got (to me) quite a musky scent with a hint of Tar not nice however I combat that with using a shampoo and conditioner AFTER the S&F it dose take away from the smell.

Each Shampoo bar lasts an average 40 - 50 washes, the bars will last longer if (esp if you share a shower) you leave it in a soap dish to dry out the bar will last longer. The average bar weighs about 55g and costs $13.50 AUS. Using S&F it really made my hair feel clean and after a few weeks my hair and scalp cleared up. For all my Vegan beauty's this is a Vegan and Cruelty free product, as you may or may not know Lush tries to source all their ingredients directly from the local people in countries all over the world and offer them a good price for the raw ingredients ,so that the money goes Directly to the people not to third party's.

All Lush products are packaged 'naked' no wrappings when you make a purchase your item is placed in a recycable paper bag and the sticker lists all the individual ingredients.

 

Over all I highly recommend this product it is worth the money I have recommended this product to friends and it has worked on a range of different hair types/colours. If you don't suffer from Dandruff Lush has a wide range of bars all for different purposes happy Lushing.

 

Whats your Hair/scalp woes?

Product: 10/10
Texture: 10/10
Scent: 1/5
Application: 5/5
Packaging: 4/5

Final thoughts:  This is a amazing product it cleared up my scalp within weeks the biggest downfalls is the smell not a fan and also if you leave it in the shower (not using it) you WILL loose product. S&F makes your hair feel clean and is quite moisturising it didn't dry my hair out. I highly recommend this product.

Overall Rating: A+

A Review - De lorenzo novafusion in FIRE RED =)

Hey guys here is a review on the Colour Shampoo that i use =) i have had a few questions about what i actually use in my hair so here we go =)

as you would see in the photo above i am CLEARLY not a natural red head however i love it and maintain it =p

I found this little Gem in the Hairhouse Warehouse (an austraian Store) I am pretty sure its not available internationally however with the increase in online buying I wouldn’t be surprised =p



For a 250 mL bottle (of  Fire Red) I paid $25 which is a BARGIN, this product is a thick shampoo which will deposit colour BACK into your hair so it will keep colour fresher for longer. I shampoo my hair and leave it in for 5 minutes before washing it out. WARNING this product DOES have the potential to STAIN hands and showers (grout mainly) and it WILL stain towels and clothing. I generally use 2-3 pumps per wash, some people don’t like colour depositing shampoos as it CAN leave a residue though with this product I don’t find that myself. According t0 the site



Novafusion colour care Shampoo is formulated with UV inhibitors
to enhance your natural or professional colour, control colour fade
or reduce unwanted brassy tones. Novafusion contains native
plant extracts including Kakadu Plum and Rooibos, Birch
and Willowbark extracts for soft, shiny hair. Available in
14 different colour shampoos   



Another bonus about this product is that it’s Cruelty free and 100% Australian owned and made =) from the sounds of their web site this product is ALSO Vegan (as I am not 100% up with that so DEFF check before you buy if your vegan). Using this Shampoo I extend my colour by at least 3 weeks I generally only have to re colour my hair due to regrowth rather then loss of colour =)
