Tangle Teezer vs Dessata Detangling Hair Brushes

Kimmi — Fri, 18 Aug 2017 08:29:20 +0000

Detangling hairbrushes are available from just about everywhere now but when it comes to trusted brands there are a few to choose from. In this post I've got Tangle Teezer vs Dessata in a battle of the detangling brushes. Both are priced almost identically (here in Australian anyway) so which brush is worth your dollars?

For this battle I've selected the Tangle Teezer The Original to go up against the Dessata Maxi Detangling Brush. I own three Tangle Teezer brushes - The Original, Compact Styler and Aqua Splash - but for this post I'm comparing The Original as it's the most popular model. Read on to find out which might be the best detangling brush for you. Read the rest of this post

DermaQuest – Stem Cell 3D Facial Cleanser Review

Kimmi — Wed, 19 Jul 2017 20:00:13 +0000

Face cleansers are seen as quite an underrated product in terms of our overall skincare needs, but they're actually really important. The correct cleanser for your skin should remove dirt, debris and build-up that otherwise gets in the way of your other skincare products delivering their best results. A vast majority of skin issues can be activated simply by using the wrong cleanser. When it comes to anti-aging, it's essential to not use a face cleanser that is drying or stripping. Hydration is key, and that's one of the major claims behind the DermaQuest Stem Cell 3D Facial Cleanser.

As I continue my fight against aging and dry skin I've tested the DermaQuest Stem Cell 3D Facial Cleanser. Is it worth the price tag? Read on to find out. Read the rest of this review

Reversal of Female Hair Loss

Kimmi — Sun, 18 Jun 2017 20:00:28 +0000

Female hair loss and hair thinning are a growing sector within the beauty market. I used to think female hair loss was a beauty issue and as such could be treated with beauty products. Self-inflicted hair loss is my most common concern. I blamed my tight braids, hair irons and chemical damage. However, the fact remains that the leading causes for female hair loss are health related.

When my normal amount of hair fall dramatically increased, with noticeable receding of my hairline, I panicked. I didn't know where to begin with treating it but I couldn't understand why it was happening. I'd stop styling my hair in tight do's, I rarely heat style and I haven't dyed my hair in almost 2 years. I ruled out self-inflicted hair loss so I went straight to my GP (doctor) to ask for advice. It turns out that my female hair loss was completely reversible for less than $20!

Trefiel – Moisturising Lace Anti-Aging Hydromask Review

Kimmi — Sat, 17 Jun 2017 20:00:37 +0000

If you follow beauty on Instagram it's highly likely you've seen the Trefiel Lace Sheet Mask. They look like a piece of black lace, often seen adorning the faces of cute beauty influencers. What they actually are is a range of sheet masks. Really pretty sheet masks.

The Trefiel Lace Sheet Mask is available in four formulations - Moisturising, Brightening, Repairing and Toning. Trefiel initially launched with just the Moisturising mask but later rebranded and added 3 more masks to the line-up. I chose to review their original Moisturising Face Mask.
