Himalaya Herbals Anti-Hair Fall Cream Review


I am fan of Himalaya Herbals products and have used many products from their collection specially body lotions and face washes. In winter I use Himalaya Herbals lip balm too that keeps my lips moisturising and hydrating. Today I am reviewing Himalaya Herbals Anti-Hair Fall Cream(Rs. 100) which I got last month from More that’s grocery shop in India. Himalaya Herbals have three different hair creams – Anti-Hair Fall Cream, Protein Hair Cream and Anti-Dandruff Hair Cream. Actually I wanted to try Protein Hair Cream but it was not available in shop that day so I got Anti-Hair Fall one. I am not going through heavy hair fall currently but yes my hair does fall during hair wash and when I comb which is I think normal? So I thought why not to try this to see if it really works.

Himalaya’s Anti-Hair Fall Cream is a unique, daily-use formula which reduces hair fall and strengthens hair follicles. The goodness of essential herbs like Bhringaraja and Amla nourish hair from the roots, help reduce hair fall, improve hair growth, and strengthen hair follicles. Bhringaraja is rich in phytochemicals like eclalbosaponins and wedelolactone which help promote hair growth and strengthen the hair root, and keeping hair healthy. Amla, a natural hair tonic used extensively in Ayurveda, is an effective ingredient for treating the hair and scalp. It is a rich source of Vitamin C and polyphenols. Amla helps maintain hair color, delays premature greying and supports the strength of hair follicles. Massage Anti-Hair Fall Cream gently into the scalp using a circular motion. Use regularly before and after shampooing to reduce hair fall and maintain healthy hair.

The Himalaya Herbals Anti-hair Fall Cream comes in tub packaging, similar to the other creams from Himalaya. A thin foil inside the tub prevents any kind of pathogen formation. The cap closes well, avoiding product leakage. The packaging is sturdy and travel-friendly. The only concern with the product is its tub packaging. It is unhygienic to dip your fingers each time for application. The Himalaya Anti-hair Fall Cream is milk white in colour. The consistency is very creamy. I also like the floral kind scent of this hair cream and it lingers on hair for quite some time.

I have been using this hair cream since last 4 weeks before and after hair wash. It spreads easily on dry hair too but I like to wet my hair and then apply cream so it distributes evenly on hair. I keep it for like 30 minutes on hair then wash hair with regular shampoo. I feel like I don’t need conditioner after using this cream as it makes my hair really soft and smooth. I use this cream after hair wash too on wet hair from root to tip. I gently massage it into the scalp in circular motions and I spend good 10 minutes massaging it into hair. I find that using this cream after shampoo makes my hair bit greasy so I wash my hair next day again. If I am going outside then I skip it after shampoo. I also tried keep this hair cream on overnight and wash hair in the morning. It nourishes hair and make them look more silky, soft and healthier. As I said earlier I am not going through heavy hair fall so I cannot comment if it reduces the hair fall completely but it definitely reduces the hair fall problem only to a certain extent. It did not cause any allergic reactions to me.

This Anti Hair Fall Cream contains parabens too which not good for hair. Otherwise it is budget friendly hair cream that nourishes the hair well and also reduce hair fall to a certain extent. If you have frizzy dry hair then you may want to try this hair cream for extra conditioning and nourishing your hair. People with oily scalp can use this anti hair fall cream before shampooing as after shampoo it would make scalp more oiler.

You can buy Himalaya Herbals Anti-Hair Fall Cream and other Himalaya Herbals products from here. In my previous post I have also reviewed Himalaya Herbals Cocoa Butter Intensive Body Lotion which you can find here.

Collagen Shampoo with Silk & Honey Review


Hey there everyone! I bring you another product review today of a shampoo I tried out a few months ago. Collagen well known for their skin smoothing and moisturising properties are the latest saviours for limp, lifeless hair. I am reviewing Collagen Shampoo with Silk & Honey which I have been sent very kindly to review on my blog. Its active ingredients Honey, Silk extract and D-Panthenol provide perfect nourishment,  restore elasticity and shine to hair and help to maintain the hairstyle throughout the day. The shampoo gives hair healthy and glossy look, It can be used every day and is salt-free. This is a gentle Shampoo for all hair types. It is particularly recommended for weak and brittle hair, hair damaged by UV rays or hairdressing treatments that require special care.

A little bit about Collgen….. COLLGEN is a beauty company with an exceptional commitment to excellence, luxury and the science of skincare. They specialise in revolutionary, anti-ageing products with Triple Helix Formula. Their range of Natural Collagen Collgen products contains pure, high quality collagen. It has been clinically proven to reduce wrinkles, decrease pores and increase skin moisture. The product’s unique enzymatic process breaks down the collagen molecules which are bioactive (meaning they are readily absorbed by the body).

The white bottle packaging with red letters looks professional. It reminds me of Clarins. It has press to to open lid. The instructions on packaging are straightforward and very easy to follow. It has creamy consistency and lovely floral kind of fragrance which is not overpowering at all. It lathers well and is easy to rinse off.

I usually wash my hair twice with shampoo before applying conditioner but with this shampoo I only need to wash once as it does not require a lot to lather and wash your hair properly. I also feel that I do not need a conditioner either as it makes my hair feel wonderfully soft, silky and tangle free. Few months ago I had hair fall problem and after I started using this shampoo it is reduced now. This shampoo also prevents hair splitting, regenerates damaged ends, moisturises dry scalp and regenerates and strengthens hair structure. It is very good shampoo and it does what it promises.

This shampoo is quite costly but if you really into taking care of your hair then you might want to invest into this shampoo. I have one more Collgen product to review so keep watching my blog space. So what do you think about Collagen Shampoo with Silk & Honey? Have you heard of Collgen London Brand? Have you tried any shampoo and conditioner with Collagen? Let me know in comment section below.

Thank you,

The Jojoba Company’s 100% Natural Australian Jojoba Oil Review


Today I am reviewing The Jojoba Company’s 100% Natural Australian Jojoba Oil which I have been sent very kindly to review on my blog. This is a multi-tasking product which can be used for skin, nails, hairs, lips and hands. This unique, natural wonder ingredient, Jojoba has been natured and gently cold pressed to give the highest quality, ground breaking and purest beauty treatment, guaranteed to benefit a wide range of beauty issues. It is suitable for all skin types and also proven to help with wide range of skin concerns, linked to climate, stress, hormones, sleep, diet and lifestyle; If you have dry and cracked skin, eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, rosacea, sign of skin aging, pigmentation and tone, acne and stretch marks this product would be beneficiary for you. Jojoba Oil is enriched with some powerful antioxidants and added vitamins; Omega 6 and 9 fatty acids, and Vitamins A, D and E.

Youthful skin naturally produce wax esters (lipids produced by skin cells) that are responsible for the deep cleansing and body’s natural conditioning of skin, hair and nails. As our skin ages, was ester production begins to slow down. As a result, the function of was esters are lost, allowing moisture to escape from skin cells which in turns begins the skin aging process. Applying Jojoba Oil to the aging skin puts back what age takes away, working in synergy, with the skin to begin restoring a radiant, youthful complexion. Jojoba Oil has been shown to effectively reduce superficial facial lines by 26% after one hour, 28% after four hours and 11% after 8 hours. It also increase sin suppleness by 50% which means it can used on pregnant women to reduce the risk of stretch marks.

How to use 100% Natural Australian Jojoba Oil

  • If you are using it on the skin you just need a very small amount, just 1 pump and it would be adequate for one area and massage well into either damp or dry skin to add warmth.
  • There are two benefits of applying this oil on wet skin, both of which are more beneficial to a normal/dry skin type. Jojoba Oil travel fast in water and spreads evenly. It moves under the water layer and absorb into the epidermis to recreate skins natural moisture barrier to lock moisture in the deep skin cells.
  • Once you have massaged the jojoba oil in the skin simply apply your daily moisturiser on top to complete your regime. You can also mix Jojoba oil into your daily moisturiser.
  • It also moisturise and nourish the lips, face, hands, cuticles and body. It leaves you skin feeling smooth and soft.
  • It is also fantastic for hair treatment to give it shine and softness. Take some drops and massage into hair and comb your hair to seal and moisturise the hair follicles whilst giving a unique keratoplastic effect. Jojoba Oil builds onto the keratin on the outer layer, conditioning and preventing the hair from becoming brittle and dull. Before swimming you should apply Jojoba oil as it seals the hair shaft preventing the chlorine greening effect.

I have been using it since week on my body and hair. I have only used it once on my face mixing with my daily day cream and it was good, no skin irritation or nothing. I think if I apply directly on my face it would be too heavy. I have combination skin more on dry side but since last 2 weeks I feel my skin is getting bit oily so I thought not to use on my face. I have read some reviews about this oil before I started using it and noted that many people find the scent of this oil too much, but truly speaking I did not smell anything much, it has natural its own scent which I hardly can smell so even if you are sensitive to scents this oil would not put you off. The formulation of this oil is really high quality and has thin texture, applies evenly on skin without tugging onto the skin. It takes few seconds to absorb completely into skin and does not feel greasy or oily on body. It moisturise and nourish my skin. I also used this Jojoba Oil 3 times for hair treatment, apply on hair and gently massage for some time, leave oil over night and next morning shampoo my hair. The oil rinses off very easily. It really makes my hair more shiny, silky soft and frizz free. For each time after shampoo I have not used any conditioner and still my hair were feeling super soft and bouncy after each wash so yes this oil really works great and I think I am going to repurchase it. I got 15ml bottle which I have finished in one week.

This 100% Natural Australian Jojoba Oil is much better alternative to the harsh synthetic chemicals we get in some beauty treatments. This oil is suitable for vegans, contains no parabens, chemicals, sulphates, artificial fragrances, colours, perfumes, PEGs, mineral oil. Petrochemicals, animal testing or animal derivatives. You can buy 100% Natural Australian Jojoba Oil from Amazon UK, Holland & Barrett and www.oneway2naturalhealth.com

Roots & Rituals Deep Conditioning Hair Oil Review


Today I am going to review Roots & Rituals Deep Conditioning Hair Oil – £15.99 which I have been sent very kindly to review on my blog. Roots & Rituals is a new hair care brand based in the UK. Focused on natural products inspired by the traditional ritual of hair oiling, they provide products free from SLS, silicone, mineral oils, parabens and artificial fragrance that repair and hydrate the hair. This nourishing hair oil contains pure and carefully selected ancient hair oils to create effective ritual for both hair and scalp. It is infused with Coconut, Olive and Avocado which penetrate deeply into the hair shaft to lock in moisture. It also has Amla, Almond and Sesame oils which nourish and hydrate the scalp to help promote optimal hair growth. Argan, hibiscus and basil oils condition and repair the cuticle. It is infused with the exquisite scent of patchouli, ylang-ylang and rosemary oil that unfolds like a bouquet of freshly cut flowers to create a sheer spa-like experience.

I am all about the hair oils, and I especially use hair oils for a deep conditioning before I wash my hair. I just put quite bit of this hair oil on my dry hair and massage it in using circular motions. And then leave the oil on the hair for 30-40 minutes. Roots & Rituals suggests wrapping a warm towel around the hair to help aid the penetration of the product. Roots & Rituals have a heated towel too, for more information click here. What I do is, wet my normal size towel into hot(not too hot) water and squeeze extra water and wrap damp towel around my hair. Alternatively, if you have severely dry hair, you can leave the oil in overnight. You then need to remove the oil with the Roots & Rituals Shampoo and follow-up with the Conditioner. I don’t have Roots & Rituals shampoo or conditioner so I use my regular shampoo and conditioner. With the towel, I leave it for about an hour and it is quite easy to wash off which is always good. It leaves my hair feeling super soft and more manageable. It also adds gorgeous shine to my hairs and looks more healthy. I have used this hair oil about three times since I got it and you only need a small amount for your whole hair.

If you have super dry hair you should check out Roots & Rituals Deep Conditioning Hair Oil that puts back new life into your hair. If you don’t have enough time to visit spas to treat yourself don’t worry Roots and Rituals makes it possible with this amazing at-home treatment that brings the spa experience directly to your door.

Phyto Plage After Sun Recovery Hair Spray Review – Protect Your Hair from UV Rays


Finally summer is here. Some of you have already gone the way of the holiday and some might be preparing for holiday. I know all you beauties have undoubtedly slipped into your summer vanity sunscreen to protect your skin but are you also protecting your hairs from sun? Our hair is also attacked by UV. Today I am going to review Phyto Plage After Sun Recovery Spray-£13.00 which I have been sent very kindly to review on my blog. The Phyto Plage range is designed to deal with all the summer problems like too much sun, salty water, chlorine that can damage your hair. I use sun protection products all the year for my face and body. I use Sun Protection Hair Sprays during summer only when I am on beach or by the pool side. 2-3 years ago I was on holiday in Greece during summer and it was damn hot. I have not used any protection hair sprays during that visit and sun badly damaged my hair. My scalp was burning too. It took many months to get back my hair into normal condition. So after that experience I always use hair protection sprays during summer.

When you are on beach you just cannot sit on lounge all day long under umbrella. We all end up with wet hairs, just cannot help it! Phyto Plage express treatment instantly detangles and repairs hair damaged by sun, salt and chlorine. It is infused with Kerarice and saffron extract which hydrate, repair and smooth damaged hair fibers. The kerarice is a cosmetic active specifically designed to protect hair fibers against oxidative damage generated by solar radiation. The Kerarice is obtained from the rice grain. And the extract of saffron I think the vitamin B12. It is to be applied as after sun care. Phyto Plage After Sun Recovery Spray protects your hair and regains its softness and shine. Currently my hairs are in healthy condition and I take all the preventions so I cannot tell if this product works or not but I have read so many positive reviews about Phyto Plage After Sun Recovery Spray.

I love the scent of this spray so much, it smells like baby powder. The scent of it stays on hair for long time. The consistency of this product is bit thick and I find that the spray nozzle don’t work properly to spread the even amount of product on hairs. So I take product on my hand and then spread on hairs with fingers and comb through. It sinks in nicely. You can use this spray on dry or damp hairs. This spray feels very light and soft on hairs. It does not make hair oily or sticky. This product does not need to be rinsed out.

Overall Phyto Plage After Sun Recovery Spray sounds a great product to protect your hairs from sun and also helps to repair damaged hair by UV rays. If you have already planned a beach vacation don’t forget to take Sun Protection Hair Sprays with you. So what do you think about Phyto Plage After Sun Recovery Spray? Have you tried any products from Phyto Plage range? Do you have favourite Phyto product? How do you protect your hair from the Sun? I would love to know your thoughts in comments.

You can buy Phyto Plage After Sun Recovery Hair Spray from lookfantastic.com, cultbeauty.co.uk, feelunique.com, johnlewis.com and spacenk.com.
