Novelty! BEST dry shampoo from Hårologi

-

Jun 6, 2016

You who have followed me regularly for a long time know that I have super oily skin (and scalp) and am dependent on dry shampoo - and also very picky and have tested lots of different brands.

There are a lot of reviews in the blog archive, and I have for a long time tried to find a good dry shampoo for the webshop but have not found anyone who keeps the measure.

Until now, when Hårologi gets in touch and tells that they have launched that dry shampoo as a gift from above! There are two different, a candle for blonde, and a dark for people with dark hair color.

And hey, this is the BEST dry shampoo!

I had such high expectations when I would test this for the first time, because I think that all other products from Hårologi are so good, but despite high expectations, I was still positively surprised!

♥ It is incredibly effective.
♥ Gives volume and structure while the hair feels clean and you can pull your fingers through the hair without it being too rough.
♥ And above all, it keeps the hair matte longer than any other dry shampoo I have tested.

Two thumbs up :)

And it is available for purchase Byher.se now! :)

I have taken some before and after pictures to show you how good the dry shampoo really is. I showered my hair and waited for 5 days without using dry shampoo (became a tight tassel the last few days) and then I took photos before and after using the dry shampoo Blonde.

VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED haha, as I said, I am sickly oily on the scalp and 5 days without dry shampoo for me is almost impossible. This is what I looked like then:

Fresh huh? Looks kind of wet haha.

Difference huh !? :)

Use
Lift the hair a little and spray on the scalp. The spray is very expensive so you do not need to spray as much, if you do not have as oily hair as I had just this day then it was needed quite a lot;)

Wait for a few seconds so that the dry shampoo has time to dry and soak up most of the oil, then massage into the scalp so that it is evenly distributed.

Results
The result is a hair that is not the least bit oily anymore, it gets an airy volume and a little structure, but you can still pull your fingers through the hair and do not get the dirtier feeling that many other dry shampoos can give.

sustainability
With most dry shampoos, I spray more every day, sometimes both morning and evening. But with this one does not need to be refilled every day, 3 days after these pictures were taken it still looked dull and nice! And so it was 8 days after washing hair. Then I sprayed a little in the fringe just so I survived that day as well.

Then I showered my hair;)

Award
The dry shampoo costs SEK 229 and is available for both light and dark hair color. Available in our store Creative Makeup By Her in Uppsala, and at creativemakeup.se!

Summary - Perfect dry shampoo for all hair colors, and suitable both for you who have a little oiliness and for us who are extremely oily scalp. Gives an airy volume and makes the hair feel clean and fresh.

I'm in Love! ♥

It's a little difficult to disconnect from work and relax when you are self-employed and have lots of things you would like / need to grab. I could not fall asleep yesterday, so I worked until 12 at night and then I lay awake in bed to 2 o'clock and watched New Girl haha.

But today I took a nap until 11 and have prepared with lots of coziness out in the garden with music and homemade, ice-cold nettle tea in the hammock in the sun. Really wonderful!

Wish you a great day too! :) ♥

I have written this post in stages all day haha, first I posted the pictures, then I have written like a sentence every tiny free second and thought that I would have time to publish it much earlier. But jisses what a day it has been at the salon today! :)

We left home at 05.30 to start the day with student make-up on a conveyor belt on the morning twig, then I had a bridal make-up and after that there have been thousands of drop-in customers mixed with planned bookings. Every time I have finished with a customer, I have checked the clock and then it has been exactly 1 minute to the next. Pjuh! Very funny! But I have not managed to get ready and press the publish button here in the blog until now.

There has been no time to take pictures of today's customers, but last Saturday I made up a super cute girl who was going to have a 30th birthday party, which I was going to show pictures of now :)

Look so nice:

A light and natural make-up in warm tones, and a natural base that makes her fine freckles shine through.

I have used these products:

Face:
Face primer - Pixi Redness Reducing Primer
Foundation - Pixi H2O skintint (Nude)
Powders that neutralize red areas - gloMinerals redness relief powder
Contouring - Pixi Book of beauty Contour Creator Palette
Rouge - gloMinerals blush (Papaya)
Makeup Fixing mist - Pixi makeup fixing mist

Eyebrows - Pixi Duo Brow (Natural Brown) (she has bought it and uses it herself too, and is sooo happy!)
Lips - gloMinerals Suede Matte Crayon (Monogram)

Eyes:
Eyeshadow Primer - Pixi eye bright primer
Black lashliner - Paese cashmere eyeshadow (602)
Light eye shadow on the inside of the eyelid, and light brown in the middle - Paese opal eyeshadow (Melba)
White shimmery eye shadow in the corner of the eye & Gold eye shadow on the rest of the eyelid and the underside of the eyes - Yag mineral eyeshadow (Star white & Rose Gold)
Black mascara - Magnetic Lash Mascara + false eyelashes

The golden eye shadow is a little difficult to get the same picture as it looks in reality. It looks a little more brown-bronzed in these pictures than it really is.

Super nice!

Now I will get on the bus home, and sleep for a while I think;)

Hope you had a great Friday, and congratulations to all students and recent graduates! ♥

Neutrogena CC Cream

This week I got a press sample of some of Neutrogena's news for the summer, which is one of them CC Cream which in addition to evening out the skin tone also counteracts acne.

I used Neutrogena's products in my teens when I had the most acne, and I experience in retrospect that they were probably too strong for my skin really. In any case, the cleaning (which is also a face mask) then you felt tight like a piece of paper in the face then haha. Gets easily so from products that are very focused on acne problems, must have soothing and gentle products that also work for oily skin.

Anyway, this is what their CC Cream looks like:

What is Neutrogena Correct & Perfect CC Cream?
An oil-free cream that provides light coverage (not comprehensive) while helping to counteract acne and whitens marks and blemishes from previous pimples.

Comes in a practical 50 ml tube bottle, and is available in the two shades Light and Medium.

Shades
Since CC Creamen is semi-opaque and adapts well to the skin tone, it is only available in two shades. For me, the light shade fits perfectly, but it is difficult to determine if it does so because it adapts well or if it is a "lucky hit".

Formula
The formula is oil-free and feels creamy and smooth. Quite a bit and a small amount goes a long way.

Application
I have tried to apply it with my fingers, and it works great. I think it will be very good with a make-up brush as well. It was easy to get even and you can put on quite a lot without it looking cakey.

Results
The creamy feeling dries very quickly after application and gives a matte result, without looking flat, really nice I think! It has little tendency to highlight dry areas so I do not recommend it to you who have acne + dry skin.

The coverage is, just as it says in the product description, not comprehensive but quite comprehensive, I must say. Pimples and where you are the reddest shine through a little but the whole is very even and fine and it removes a lot of the irregularities.

It otherwise feels very good on the face, and stays well even on oily skin.

Award
Available at, among other places Apoteket Hjärtat and costs SEK 119 there.

Summary - This is a product adapted for acne, and I often use semi-covering products for acne as well, but I do not have a concealer in the range because this product is adapted for pimples. Of course, pimples and blemishes are a little less visible, but they do not disappear completely without more coverage. Would have been more reasonable with either more coverage, or a concealer in the same series.

But apart from those lines of thought, I actually think that this CC Creamen is very good! Nothing for people who are also a little dry in the skin, but for an even, natural and matte base, I absolutely think it holds the measure. And also feels very affordable!

Here you see the result before and after :)

As for the cream's skin care properties, I can not comment, have only used it a few times.

Hugs are! ♥
