Save The Blow Dry, Something you'll love-Review

As a beauty blogger you get sent many products. However, this was my first time receiving a shower cap. It just seemed strange to me that a shower cap would be sent for reviews. That was before I had seen this beauty. I had imagined the usual thin plastic and elastic strip shower caps that we all see and use everyday and even hotels provide you with. This shower cap is like no other I've ever seen before! First of all, do you see how pretty it is? It's so adorable and has bows all over it (I love bows). It's also the best quality I've ever seen. It has a really good quality outer layer which repels the water and an inner layer of super absorbent microweave which is like a towel. What that does is that it absorbs all the little steam or water droplets that may go near you hair making sure that your hair stays dry. It also makes the shower cap super easy to use. The cap is also used for dual usage because you can turn it inside out and wear it over your favorite hair treatment so that the towel does not get sticky. The usual cheap plastic shower caps never fit my hair and it's annoying but this one can probably fit hair that's twice as long as mine! I just love using this shower cap so much. If I start doing a favorites post this thing is going to be sitting there in every one of those posts because I use it almost everyday. I already know that if it ever gets damaged I will have to get a new once immediately because I cannot have a shower without it. I can just never go back to using ordinary shower caps again.

The only con about it? I was hoping that those bows would be made of real ribbons because they look so realistic! Don't you think? But real ribbon bows would be stupid and impractical because they would get wet every time you shower. So I guess we can ignore that. I still love my Shower cap with all it's colorful bows. 

That's the inner microweave towel lining. It really works like magic. It absorbs the water but barely ever gets wet. It looks so soft and comfy too.

Isn't this the prettiest? Now for the sad part. Save The Blow Dry isn't available in USA yet. But don't worry because they said they would be expanding to USA soon! And anyway, we beauty obsessives know how to get our hands on things that aren't available anyway. That's when all the relatives in UK get calls saying "please receive this package for me and ship it to me." or something along those lines. Hahaha. I know that's what I'm going to do as soon as I need a new one (doesn't seem like I need one anytime soon). If I visit UK I'm going to stock up on these for a lifetime. Meanwhile you can get it from their website here or http://savetheblowdry.com

So what do you think? Do you like it? Are all you beauties in UK going to try it? Let me know in the comments below because I love reading them.

The Fight For Frizz-Free Hair

Before you style your hair you need to repair it. The monsoons may be synonymous with moist and humid weather but quite ironically they dry out your hair. Dry hair is responsible for that annoying frizz in your hair which makes it look like a bird's nest. So before any birds decide to settle down in your hair, start a moisture-locking routine for your hair. Look for L'oréal's Liss Ultime line. This line Has a shampoo and conditioner that help lock in your hair's natural oils and prevent it from drying out. They also have a serum that detangles hair and calms down frizz. I have not had great results from this line but I know quite a few people who would vouch for it so give it a try. 

If, like me, your hair just doesn't like this line very much, you may want to try the Matrix Hydra-créme. Their deep repair masque can work wonders for the driest of hair! Since it is a hair masque and not a conditioner, you don't need to use it every time you shampoo your hair but I still do because I cannot get enough of this amazingly magical potion.

Next up is the Dove Elixir Nourished Shine. Even the guy that lives on that remote rock on Jupiter  may have noticed the blogosphere going abuzz about Argan Oil. The Dove Elixir Nourished Shine has this miracle oil and that was enough to convince me to try it. It is the perfect product to add shine to dry hair. 

As a general rule, don't color your hair during monsoon. Coloring dries out the hair that is already damaged by the weather. However if you do color your hair,  Lush's Daddy-O shampoo will give it some added moisture and also prevent it from going brassy. 

Once you've got the hair you want, you can style it. The easiest of the lot are the Summer Waves. You could achieve this look with a curling iron but the humid weather will just ruin it. Instead, split your hair into sections and braid each of these sections after a shower and while it's still damp. You may use a hair dryer if you're in a rush but I prefer to just let it dry naturally. Once it's dried, just open out the braids and brush through your hair. A few drops of serum later you'll have those perfect Summer Waves.

If you would rather tie up your hair, a fishtail braid or a French braid looks classy and yet edgy.
