Organix Quenching Coconut Curls Haircare

I have a new friend who has been complaining about her dry , curly hair since the day I met her last year. She battles it but  didn't seem to be using any of the right products. She used very little product in fact, which was part of the problem. Her hair is short , dry and has curl but not ringlet curls. It's also colored and she never uses heat tools.

So when the Organix Quenching Coconut Curls line landed on my desk, she was the first person  I thought of and I gave it to her to be my tester .

She's been using it for about 2 weeks now with great results. Right off her hair was softer and not only felt it but looked it.  Now her style is looking even better with the extra dry, longer side pieces  looking better than ever and there's a little volume too.

The full line features a hair butter deep conditioner as well as a moisturizing mousse , so you can get some styling help as well as moisture.

I've had great luck with the brand's Proganix line and if you have curls this might be worth trying as it's well priced, works and there's often a BOGO. Oh and it smells pretty great too .

The Body Shop Oils Of Life Sleeping Cream

The Body Shop has a lot of newness coming out and they are really upping their skincare game. If you haven't looked there in awhile, you might be surprised.

Brand new is a seriously rich, oil laden sleeping cream for face called Oils Of Life.

Oils Of Life has three seed oils- black cumin ( for antioxidants), rosehip ( omega 3 and 6) and camellia ( oleic acid) and seven essential oils - lavender, rosemary leaf, geranium, orange peel, lavandin, marjoram and roman chamomile.  All of these add up to a very hydrating cream that works while you get your zzzzs.

The cream itself is not too thick and is a gel cream hybrid almost.  It sinks in quickly despite all those oils , leaving skin feeling soft  but not tacky or sticky. The softer skin feel  is right off, the deeper hydration of course after it's on there awhile. For those with drier skins especially this will be a boon for sure.

The Body Shop says that after time, skin will look more rested and revitalized as well.  Now that we can all use, right ?

The Body Shop Oils Of Life Intensely Revitalizing Sleeping Cream is $ 39 and comes in an amber glass jar.

 Other products are available in Oils Of Life including  a facial oil and serum.

Viktor & Rolf Bonbon Hair Mist

A bon bon for you and your hair, Viktor &Rolf's Bonbon fragrance now comes in a hair mist.

I love a nice hair mist, although I'll admit it's not something I use a lot.  I first used one in the mid '90s and there was nothing quite as glam as Bonbon then. They are a great freshen/pick me up. Not to mention an indulgent luxury. We all need those sometimes.

Bonbon Hair Mist comes in a 1oz bottle that is pale pink rendition of the perfume's larger and  pinker size. It  has a pump spray for a fine mist of fragrance.

The fragrance itself , if you haven't tried it , is a gourmand  with caramel ,citrus and light floral notes. You can read my review here. 

Viktor & Rolf Bonbon Hair Mist is $ 50 and exclusive to Saks.
