Schwarzkopf IGORA ROYAL Grey/Silver 9.5-1

Schwarzkopf IGORA ROYAL Grey/Silver 9.5-1

Schwarzkopf Professional's heritage colour brand IGORA ROYAL brings you true colour in High Definition with uncompromising coverage and unbeatable retention.

I have been toning my hair grey with various different toners for about 3 years now, I watch many hours of YouTube videos as in always wanting the next best thing or something that's more true to the colour I want, or to the colour I have in my head which I've not yet found I've come pretty close with the Schwarzkopf blondme range, until I heard about this product from quite a well known YouTube hair blogger and while he made the product sound like no other he made me feel I could get the perfect tone I was after (clearly he was sponsored) it just didn't cut it, it is advertised has a grey toner yet doesn't tone grey in not taking away from the product that yes it's a good toner if you have brassy tones it will completely eliminate those and turn your hair white but not grey. The real downside to this product is that as I've said I've toned my hair for many years which also brings the damaged hair and a lot of toners damage it even more m, I had got my hair in pretty good condition with the Schwarzkopf Blondme range until I used this toner it was literally like if just bleached my hair I used a low volume developer as I normally do left it on for the time allocated but the second the water hit my head I knew instantly that my hair was majorly damaged.

There is no doubt about it that Schwarzkopf is a amazing range and it's trail and error with hair products but I would strongly advise that if you have color treated hair to stay away from this product and stick to other Schwarzkopf products

GIVENCHY | MISTER LASH BOOSTER

 GIVENCHY | MISTER LASH BOOSTER
WHAT IT IS: A Fortifying Serum for Lashes: Day Beauty - Night Care. 


WHAT IT DOES:  Both a makeup and a treatment, an eyelash primer that deeply nourishes and strengthens the eyelashes thanks to its high-performance transparent formula combined with a new application:  its beveled tip equipped with soft spikes gently massages the root of the lashes, stimulating micro circulation and the penetration of ingredients to create lashes that are denser, stronger and more resistant.


At night, apply as an intensive treatment and during the day as a treatment and colourless makeup or underneath a Givenchy mascara to treat and improve the mascara’s holding effect.
 

I cant say i use it for my eyelashes i have very long and thick eyelashes but if it works on the eye lashes it works on the eye brows right??, RIGHT!! i have very sparse eyebrows and I've used many products to help them grown but nothing has ever worked for me, a very well known blogger friend recommended this product to me and after reading the reviews it all sounded good, but could i really justify spending so much for so little. after some deliberation i chose to take the plunge and put the bank card to some use.

When i received the product i put it to use straight away did what it said on the tin except on my eye brows before i went to bed after my evening routine, and the next day i was actually quite surprised at what one night did, my brows looked as if I'd had them tinted, after a week of using this product every night my brows have clearly grown and are more fuller, i can honestly say this is the only product I've used that actually shows a visible difference on something it wasn't intended for, so i will be purchasing more of this product...

FUDGE MAKE A MENDS SHAMPOO AND CONDITIONER

 
FUDGE MAKE A MENDS SHAMPOO AND CONDITIONER
 
 

 
 
A powerful duo designed to revive hair that has been damaged by extensive chemical processing. 
 
The nurturing formulas help restore gloss, smoothness and shine, whilst providing protection against thermal styling, UV and environmental damage.


 
 
 
This is such a early review as I've only been using the products combined for 3 days, but I have got to say those 3 days have worked wonders on my hair, I have really short hair (inserts picture)
 
And as you can see I bleach the shit out of it and tone it till it's about to drop out so my hair is as you would imagine dry, chemically damaged, heat damaged (straighteners) and this shampoo and conditioner has worked miracles I always knew my hear would be in bad condition with the way I treat it but make a mends is amazing I am going to try the other products as I don't want my hair to get used to this, I do use  Fudge Clean Blonde Violet Toning Shampoo and conditioner but that can also dry my hair out but tones amazing, I have done a previous review on this product go check it out here.
I always buy litre bottles as it works out cheaper.

Dr Perricone Review

 DR PERRICONE VITAMIN C ESTER SERUM



What it is:
A multitasking serum that delivers the brightness, luminosity, and clarity of youthful-looking skin. 

What it is formulated to do:
This radiating serum is designed for face, eyes, and lips—proven to instantly boost skin’s radiance. It imparts an even, luminous glow and a brighter complexion while minimizing the appearance of fine lines, smoothing crows feet, and brightening dark circles. It tackles vertical lines and makes lips appear more defined, keeping lipstick from feathering, and leaving skin looking and feeling refreshed and refined. 

What I like about it is that the product is white. My first squirt from the tube had a tinge of yellow to it, showing that the Vitamin C was probably oxidizing (or whatever it is called when it breaks down). My acne scars are greatly reduced, and the age spots or sun spots or whatever that are there -- they are lighter on my skin because I have light to medium skin are a little bit reduced. This product is great for tone, and combined with the Pore products, really helps with tightness on my skin as it is getting a little slack.

So far, I think this is my favorite product because of my skin tone. I have tried a lot of products that help with acne over the years, and many of them are expensive/high end. The ones that work better are clinical types of products or medical aesthetics lines, I've never had cystic acne since school just odd set of spots but they have always scarred....


DR PERRICONE FACE FINISHING MOISTURIZER

What it is:
A performance-driven moisturizer rich in corrective nutrients.

What it is formulated to do:
Perricone MD Face Finishing Moisturizer helps minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while providing antioxidant protection. The powers of ALA, DMAE, and vitamin C ester combine to impart a nourished, hydrated, glowing complexion.

This moisturizer works beautifully on my skin which is a bit thin and leans towards dry. It brightens and leaves me with a fresh dewy glow and the skin on my cheeks and forehead feels thicker. I can apply it under my eyes as long as I'm careful not to get it *in* the eyes. There really is a difference if I go a few days without FFM - my skin starts looking dull and a bit gray.

This is a pricy product but look for the 4oz. tubs which work out quite a bit cheaper especially if you can find them on sale. A friend of mine found loads of Perricone MD products at Nordstrom Rack and stocked up - jealous!

FFM has a small amount of glycolic acid so it stings, I can't use it twice a day on my sensitive skin or even daily in winter. Overall the Perricone MD product line isn't what it used to be and this is no exception, it's not as rich as it was; but at least the scent has improved, it's now a delicate rose scent that dissipates in a few minutes.  

I USE A DERMAROLLER BEFORE I USE MY DR PERRICONE VITAMIN C ESTER SERUM SO I MAY GET BETTER OR DIFFERENT RESULTS THAN SOMEONE WHO DOESNT USE A DERMAROLLER
