Guest Post: 4 Beauty Choices You Might Regret in the Future

It seems like wherever we look, there are new ways we can improve our bodies and take them one step closer to perfection. And while we all know very well that perfection is unattainable, we still like to feel like we are doing all we can to look as good as possible. But what happens when a procedure that was supposed to make us beautiful goes wrong? Well, instances aren’t that common, but there are some procedures that we might just regret doing down the line, even if we are satisfied with the results that we see at the moment.

Over-dyed hair

Who doesn’t love playing around with different colors and trends with a body part so expendable as hair? There’s always the good old “It will grow back!”, as if we are really ready to wait for years to get our hair to a decent state. The biggest problem with hair dyeing is the bleaching part. A lot of colors require hair to be bleached before they are applied, and bleaching is just about the worst thing you can do to your hair. This especially goes for Australian girls and other women that spend a lot of time in sunny weather, as direct sunlight will make the hair even lighter, dryer and more brittle. Do yourself a favor and try to stick to colors that don’t require bleaching, and if you absolutely don’t want to miss out on it, use a lot of nourishing masks when you wash your hair and sun protection when you go out.

Tanning to oblivion

Everyone likes to have a bit of a tan going on. It makes the body look more toned, gives us a healthy glow and overall makes us look like we’ve just stepped off a beach. But getting the tan is a whole different story. Let’s first start with fake tans. Whether you spray, smear or drop, artificial tans that you apply over your skin can end up going off in blotches, leaving you with a patchy tan. Secondly, they can permanently stain your skin – but not in a good way. Next, if you are going the natural route and tanning on the beach, you will get a healthy tan – but only if you’re careful. Overexposure to constant sun, like it happens in Australia, leaves girls with sun spots all over their bodies and pigmentation removal is definitely sought after. To avoid this, always put on sunscreen and only spend time in the direct sun during mornings and evenings. Try to completely avoid tanning beds, because they have continuously been proven to increase risks of melanoma and different types of skin cancer.

Eyebrow tattoos

Before we had microblading – which is a lighter version of makeup tattooing – we had full-on eyebrow tattooing, which is still used today. There is no need to mention that tattoos are permanent, and one little mistake on an obvious spot like the middle of your face can be quite disastrous. So if you really want to permanently fill in your eyebrows, wear the look drawn on with a pencil for a few days first and see how you like it before committing to it, and then go for microblading, which is only semi-permanent and will fade over time.

Face fillers

Everything from your lips to your cheekbones can now be poked and filled with a variety of solutions to make them look full, plump and symmetrical. But with the rise in demand, there have been more and more places popping up where people who are very far from professionals administer these fillers – which can be very dangerous if not handled properly. After all, botox is the most deadly chemical in the world. So if you don’t want to end up with lips that burst open, cheeks that run down your face and a forehead that looks like you got stung by a bee, make sure you visit professionals and ask for other options to get your desired look. There are plenty more ways to look young than filling your face with chemicals.

Monthly Favorites: March

Yes, we are already in a new month so it's time for another Monthly Favorites post! During the last month, I was really loving some new items I bought and I thought I would share them with you. So, let's get started right away! ;)

1- St. Ives Exotic Naturals Body Lotion/Cream

I have mentioned before that I'm not very good at maintaining a skin care routine when it comes to my body, I'm very consistent with my face but with the rest of my skin I was the worst really. I was using a shower cream which was very good and practical but last month I decided to try a new product. I'm talking about the St. Ives Exotic Naturals body lotion with coconut milk and orchid extract. I'm not going to lie, the biggest motivation for me to buy this product was the absolutely delicious scent it has! Imagine the combination of coconut and orchid, is so sweet and it stays on your skin for quite a long time. 
Apart from the scent, I also love that the texture is really lightweight, it absorbs very quickly and it leaves a fresh sensation on your skin. 
I have been using it non-stop since I bought it last month so it is definitely a favorite that deserves to be here.

2- Garnier Fructis Oil Repair 3 Fortifying Mask

If you remember my hair routine post, you know that I have started using the shampoo from this Garnier line and I was loving it. After trying that one and having such a good experience with it, I decided to buy some other products from the Oil Repair 3 range. 
The fortifying hair mask is designed to repair, seal and nourish the hair and it contains fruit concentrate along with olive and argan oils. I have been using this mask twice a week and it's helping my hair to look healthier and nourished. It also has a very fruity and sweet scent which makes it very enjoyable to apply and that is always a plus for me.

3- Universo Garden Angels Tea Tree Oil Treatment Balm

This treatment balm is made of a very interesting mix of essential oils, such as lavender, lemon and, of course, tea tree oil to help in the treatment of acne and imperfections. 
What I love about this product is that you apply it just in the areas of your face where you have spots and it completes the drying process. So, I think it's a very good addition to my skincare routine for those days when I'm a little bit break out. The results so far, have been very positive so I thought I would include it in my monthly favorites too.

So, these were all the products I'm loving at the moment, I hope you like this post and I would love to know which are your favorite products right now! ;)

My Hair Routine 2018

The beginning of a new year is the best moment to set up new routines. We are in the mood for change and for a fresh start. So we try to create a new healthy food routine, a new workout and exercise routine and we also do the same thing with our beauty, skincare and hair routine.
So, I thought it was a great idea to show you all the products I'm currently using on my hair as well as my hair care routine. Some of these products I have already mentioned here on the blog because they are incredible and I have been using them throughout last year and some of them are completely new.
Without further do, let's begin! 

Shampoo & Conditioner:

For my shampoo and conditioner, I normally like to alternate different products because I have the feeling that if I use the same products all the time, it's like my hair gets used to them and then it doesn't respond to their properties. I would really love to know if that is something that you also do, or if it's just my idea and it doesn't have any kind of logic at all haha :P
At the moment, I'm using the Kiehl's Amino Acid Shampoo and Conditioner because I tried them once with a sample and they did magic to my hair. They are extremely gentle with my hair and they have some amazing ingredients, such as pure coconut and jojoba oils, which helps a lot to moisturize and strengthen the hair. This line of products is suitable for all hair types and it's silicone-free and paraben-free.
They are a bit pricey for a shampoo and conditioner but I think they are very high quality and they give very good results. 

On the other hand, when I don't use the Kiehl's products, I'm using the Garnier Fructis Oil Repair 3 Shampoo, which I just recently bought and the OGX Kukuí Oil Conditioner. Both of them are full of natural oils, including olive, avocado and argan oils, which help to repair, nourish and smooth the hair. 
The OGX Conditioner I bought it while I was traveling so once I run out of this product I won't be able to buy it again but I guess I will probably buy the Conditioner from the same Garnier line because I'm very satisfied with their shampoo and it's also very affordable. 

Hair Mask:

Twice a week I normally apply a hair mask because I have a very dry and frizzy hair and I tend to use a lot of styling tools to make it look something neat. So, to try to restore my hair a little bit from all the heat of those tools, I use the Salon Essentials Smart Therapy Substance Caviar Repair Mask. 
This mask is designed for very fragile and dry hair and it helps to repair, nourish and protect it. This product is enriched with caviar extract and I have been using this mask for the last 5 months. Every time I apply it, I notice that my hair looks healthier, softer and it has a lot more shine.

Serum:

After I finished washing my hair and everything I normally apply a little bit of serum to my hair. I apply it all the time, especially when I need to style it with my hair straightener or any other tool so that it has some kind of protection against the heat.
At the moment, I'm using the Kiehl's Smoothing Oil-Infused Leave-In Concentrate, which I received as a birthday present from my friends and I can't stop telling you how much I love this product!! 
It contains Argan and Babassu oils (by the way, I have no idea what exactly is Babassu but it sounds very nourishing haha), it's paraben free and it's designed especially for dry and frizzy hair, which is exactly my type of hair.
This concentrate works as a nourishing and smoothing treatment if you apply it to damp hair and it also helps you with the styling. But also you can apply it to dry hair to give you extra softness and shine. I use it both ways, all the time when my hair is still wet and in case I feel like I need it, I apply it also when my hair is dry.

Overnight Treatment:

This is an extra step that I have included in my hair routine last year. I loved the idea of overnight treatment products that you apply before going to bed and that they work their magic while you are sleeping, so when I saw this product from L'Occitane I knew I have to try it! It's called Overnight Repairing Concentrate and it has 5 essential oils: Ylang Ylang, Sweet Orange, Lavander (my favorite), Geranium and Angelica.  There is no way that my hair doesn't benefit from this product, it only has good natural stuff in it! 
So, I just apply 1 pump of it to my hair before going to bed, I try to distribute it through my lengths and that's all!! This concentrate will restore the hair fiber and reduce split ends while you are sleeping.

That's it for my hair routine!! Hope it was useful and let me know what do you think about these products? Is there any of them that you are currently using? Also, if you have any product recommendations I would love to know because there is nothing I enjoy more than to discover new hair products! ;)

New Haircut!

Pasó bastante tiempo desde que fui a la peluquería por última vez, así que estuve pensando en que necesitaba un corte de pelo en los últimos dos meses. No tenía planes de hacerme nada muy loco pero quería más que nada volver a un estilo un poco más corto. Así que la semana pasada fui a una nueva peluquería y, al principio, le expliqué a la peluquera que quería el mismo tipo de corte que tenía pero más corto para poder quitar todas las puntas abiertas y dañadas.
Lo particular del corte de pelo que tenía es que la parte de adelante es un poco más larga que la parte de atrás así que le especifiqué a la peluquera que quería mantener eso. Me gusta tener la parte de adelante más larga ya que siento que me ayuda a afinar el rostro. Además me parece muy elegante y más osado.
Lamentablemente, la peluquera no logró mantener esta diferencia de largo exactamente. Ahora mi pelo está más corto y más prolijo pero la parte de adelante no está tan larga como quería y la diferencia con la parte de atrás es muy sutil.
De todas formas, estoy muy contenta porque mi cabello se ve mucho más sano y prolijo que antes, pero estoy segura que voy a ir en el futuro a otra peluquería para intentar tener el mismo estilo que estaba buscando. Espero que les guste! :)

It has been a while since I went to the hair stylist so I was really thinking about it for the last two months. I wasn't thinking about doing anything crazy but I really wanted to go back to something a little bit shorter. So last week, I went to a new hair salon and at first, I said I wanted the same kind of hairstyle I had but shorter, in order to cut all of those damaged and split ends. The trick of my hairstyle is that it was a little bit longer on the front, so I asked exactly for that. I like to have the front part a little bit longer because I believe it makes my face look thinner. Plus I think it's edgy and very elegant.
But the hairstylist didn't exactly make that difference. Now my hair is shorter and more polished but the front part of it is not as long as I wanted and the difference in the length with the back part is very subtle. 
Anyway, I'm happy that my hair looks healthier and more put together but I'm sure I will be going to another hairstylist in the future to try to get the exact style I was looking for. Hope you like it :)

New Hairstyle Routine

Ahora que cambié mi corte de pelo también tuve que cambiar un poco mi rutina para peinarme ya que como tengo el cabello un poco ondulado es un poco más desafiante lograr un resultado perfecto con lo que venía haciendo normalmente. Así que tuve que agregar un paso adicional a mi rutina para poder lograr el look ideal.
En primer lugar, antes de hacer cualquier cosa con mi pelo, aplico un sérum de Garnier llamado Super Óleo 8 que me compré en Brasil el año pasado. Me gusta mucho este sérum debido a que tiene aceite de Argán y Camelia, lo que protege a mi cabello del calor, me ayuda a controlar el frizz y siempre le da un acabado bien brilloso al pelo.

Now that I have changed my hairstyle recently I also had to change my styling routine because as I have some kind of wavy hair it was a little bit more challenging to have good results with what I was normally doing. So, I only had to add one more step to get the perfect look.
First of all, before doing anything to my hair I apply a serum from Garnier called Super Oleo 8 which I bought in Brazil last year. I really like this serum because it has Argan and Camelia oil and protects my hair from the heat, also helps me to control the frizz and gives the hair a shinny look. 

Después de aplicar el sérum, me seco el pelo con mi secador de Remington que compré hace varios años ya y me re sirve para poder peinar mi cabello sin sufrir daños. Vengo usando este secador de pelo todos los días durante mucho tiempo y la verdad que nunca noté ningún aspecto negativo en mi pelo. Con estos dos pasos, mi nuevo corte de pelo queda bien pero todavía un poco desprolijo y como a mi me gusta que quede un poco más arreglado agregué el paso final a la rutina que es plancharlo. 

After that, I dry my hair with my hair dryer from Remington, which I bought many years ago and I love it because it really helps me to style my hair without having any damage, I have been using it every day and didn't notice any negative aspects on my hair. With just these two steps my new hairstyle looks good but a little bit messy and as I like it more polished I had to add an extra step, which is hair straightening.

Para este propósito, hace poco me compré una planchita de Remington llamada Shine Therapy y estoy muy contenta con ella porque tiene control de temperatura, que va desde 150 grados a 230. Por lo general, yo la uso en 170 grados y se siente muy suave. Otro punto a favor de esta planchita es que solamente necesito pasarla 1 o 2 veces por cada mechón de cabello para que ya quede bien liso, lo cual me permite terminar bastante rápido, con 10 minutos ya me alcanza para dejar mi cabello impecable.

For that purpose, I recently bought the Remington Shine Therapy straightener and I'm loving it because it allows to control the heat from 150 degrees up to 230. I normally use it in 170 degress and it feels really gentle on the hair. Another great aspect is that I only need to pass it just once or twice to every lock to get it really straight so this allows me to finish very quickly, in about 10 minutes I can have all my hair done.

Hair Review: L'Oréal Elvive Kera-Liso Mascarilla

Siempre me gusta probar nuevos productos para el cabello y hace un par de semanas me compré esta nueva mascarilla instantánea de L'Oréal Elvive porque se veía muy prometedora en la perfumería. Es un producto que tiene como objetivo dejar el pelo lacio y, lo que es más importante para mi, sin frizz hasta por 48 horas.
Cuando lo usé por primera vez, noté rápidamente el perfume rico y dulce que tiene esta mascarilla y además tiene una textura cremosa muy ligera. Cuando lo apliqué en seguida sentí mi cabello más hidratado y nutrido y también noté como se iba alisando aún antes de salir de la ducha.
Me hizo muy feliz ver que los buenos resultados se mantuvieron aún con mi cabello seco, se veía prolijo, sin frizz y fácil de manejar y, estas condiciones siguieron durante todo el día así que estoy muy satisfecha con este producto. Lo probaron ya?

I am always up to trying new hair products and a few weeks ago I bought this new instant mask from L'Oréal Elvive because it looked very promising on the shop. It is indicated to get a straight hair and what's most important for me, without frizz for up to 48 hours.
When I use it for the first time, I noticed the really nice and sweet scent this mask has and also it has a very light texture. When I applied it, I felt my hair very hydrated and nourished and also it was getting more straight even before I got out of the shower. 
I was very happy when I saw that the good results remained after my hair was dry, my hair was neat, without frizz and was easy to control and it lasted for the entire day so I'm very satisfied with this product. Have you try it?

Presentación Línea Résistance Thérapiste de Kérastase

Esta semana me invitaron a la presentación exclusiva de la nueva línea de Kérastase llamada Résistance Thérapiste. Esta línea de productos fue diseñada y desarrollada con el objetivo de proveer al cabello dañado de una nueva vida. Lo que buscan principalmente los productos de Thérapiste es darle a tu pelo una segunda oportunidad.
Durante la presentación, el equipo de Kérastase explicó que detectaron hasta 4 niveles diferentes de daño, los primeros dos grados están relacionados con los efectos de los tratamientos físicos, como por ejemplo el constante uso de la planchita y el brushing. Y luego, los grados 3 y 4 presentan un daño aún más profundo causado por elementos físicos pero también químicos, como pueden ser las tinturas y alisados.
La línea Thérapiste apunta directamente a este último grupo, que es el que necesita más ayuda, con 4 productos específicos: el Bain Thérapiste, un bálsamo en shampoo que protege el cabello de la fricción y regenera la fibra capilar; el Soin Premier Thérapiste, que es un acondicionador de uso inverso, es decir va antes que el shampoo, para obtener una protección aún mayor, especial para los cabellos finos; en tercer lugar, la Masque Thérapiste que es ideal para utilizar luego del shampoo y poder recuperar a los cabellos con daño extremo y, por último pero no menos importante, el Doble Sérum Thérapiste que protege el cabello del calor y sella las puntas para un resultado completo.
Finalmente, otra cosa que me encantó de esta nueva línea fue la campaña que eligieron para su lanzamiento. Me pareció muy original la idea de comparar los problemas que una normalmente tiene con su cabello con aquellos problemas que por lo general se llevan a terapia y me parece que lograron transmitir un mensaje muy interesante de reconocer aquellas acciones que llevamos adelante que dañan nuestro cabello, aceptar estos malos hábitos pero siempre con la posibilidad de darle a nuestro pelo una segunda oportunidad y por qué no también a nuestra vida :)
Les dejo unas algunas fotos del evento y también los videos de la campaña, espero que les gusten!

This week I was invited to the exclusive presentation of Kérastase's new line of products called Résistance Thérapiste. This line was designed and developed with the aim of providing a new life to damaged hair. The main goal of Thérapiste products is to give your hair a second chance. 
During the presentation, the Kérastase team explained that there were up to 4 different stages of damaged hair, the first two stages are related to the damage caused by physical sources, for example the constant ironing and brushing. And then the stages 3 and 4 were even more deep, because the damage was caused by physical and chemical sources, like for instance hair coloring. 
The Thérapiste line targets this particular group, the one that needs more help, with 4 products: the Bain Thérapiste, a balm shampoo that protects the hair from the friction and regenerates its fiber; the Soin Premier Thérapiste, which is an inverse conditioner to use before the shampoo, in order to get even more protection to the hair fiber, especially for thin hair; in third place, the Masque Thérapiste, which is perfect to use after the shampoo in order to recover the hair from extreme damage, and last but not the least the Double Sérum Thérapiste which protects the hair from the heat and seals the hair ends for a complete result.
Finally, another thing that I loved about this new line was the campaign, I thought it was a very original idea to compare the problems that we normally have with our hair with the problems that we may bring up to the therapist and I think it's a very interesting message that we can recognize the ways that we are damaging our hair, accept these bad habits and still be able to give a second chance to our hair and why not to our life too:)
I share with you some pictures form the event and also the videos from the campaign, hope you like them!

New Haircut

La semana pasada me fui a cortar el pelo, hacía ya como 6 meses que no me iba a cortar porque como lo venía teniendo bastante largo, la verdad que no me daba cuenta que había crecido tanto! En mi caso, tengo una gran cantidad de pelo, con mucho volumen, frizz y, por lo general siempre que iba a la peluquería solamente pedía que me sacaran un poco de volumen y me mantengan el largo. Pero esta última vez me cortó un poquito más y ahora siento que lo tengo muy corto, cómo lo ven?

Last week I went to cut my hair, it was like 6 months since I didn't cut it because it was so long that I didn't realize that it was growing that much! I have a huge amount of hair, a lot of volume and frizz and, in general, I was just going to the salon in order to reduce the volume and mantain the lenght. But this last time I got it a little bit shorter and now I feel like it's too short, but what do you think? 

Hair Review: Herbal Essences Al Desnudo

Hace un tiempo estaba buscando un shampoo y acondicionador hidratante debido a que, desde que empecé a teñirme un poco el pelo se me empezó a poner seco y con mucho frizz. Así que un día estaba paseando por el supermercado y encontré estos productos. Se veían muy interesantes debido a que son libres de parabenos y siliconas así que me decidí a darles una oportunidad y empecé por el acondicionador.
El acondicionador es genial, tiene una textura suave y un perfume muy rico a menta. Me dio muy buenos resultados, mi cabello quedo hidratado y suave, con menos frizz y más brillo.
Después de esa experiencia, quise probar también el shampoo y obtuve los mismos buenos resultados, así que estoy muy contenta con estos productos, son muy económicos y le están generando un muy buen efecto en mi pelo.

A while ago I was looking for a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner because after I started dyeing my hair it got really dry and with a lot of frizz. So one day, I was at the supermarket and saw these products. They were very interesting because the are free of parabens and silicones so I decided to give it a try and started with the conditioner. 
The conditioner was great, with a soft texture and a very nice mint scent, I got some awesome results, my hair was moisturized and soft, with less frizz and more shine.
After that I definitely wanted to try the shampoo too and I got the same good results, so I am very happy with these products, they are very affordable and are doing some very good effect on my hair.

Hair Review: Macadamia Natural Oil

Hace tiempo que quería probar los productos de esta marca porque son libres de sulfatos y de parabenos y, además contienen aceite de macadamia que ya me había dado buenos resultados en el pasado. Decidí probar el Rejuvenating Shampoo y el Moisturizing Rinse de Macadamia Natural Oil ya que después de teñirme noté mi cabello mucho más seco y necesitaba hidratarlo de nuevo.
El shampoo es muy ligero y tiene un perfume muy suave, casi imperceptible. Limpia el cabello apropiadamente sin ser agresivo. Luego, el acondicionador hidrata y deja mi cabello suave y brillante.
Lo único que no me gustó tanto es que mi pelo no queda tan manejable y prolijo, como me suele pasar con los productos hidratantes. Por lo general, me hidratan el cabello pero no me ayudan a dejarlo liso y manejable. Por este motivo, me gusta intercalar los distintos productos para el pelo, para que pueda estar hidratado y nutrido.

It's been a while since I wanted to try the products of this brand because they are sulfate-free and paraben-free and they have macadamia oil which has had some good results in my hair in the past. I decided to try the Rejuvenating Shampoo and the Moisturizing Rinse now because since I dyed my hair it got really dry and I needed to hydrate my hair again.
The shampoo is very light and it has a very soft scent. It cleans the hair properly but without being too agresive on it. Then the Moisturizing Rinse hydrates and leaves my hair soft and shining. 
The only thing that I didn't like that much is that my hair is not so controllable and neat, but this always happens to my hair with the moisturizing products, they hydrate my hair but they don't help that much in leaving it more straight and controllable.That's why I like to change my hair products periodically in order to keep it hydrated and healthy.

Hair Review: Schwarzkopf Oil Miracle Shampoo

Es hora de un nuevo Hair Review! Como expliqué anteriormente, me gustó la idea de tener esta sección en el blog debido a que me encanta probarme distintos productos para el pelo. Tengo mucha cantidad de pelo y también mucho volumen por lo que usualmente busco productos para el pelo que contengan aceite para que me ayuden a tener el cabello más liso y a prevenir el frizz.
Últimamente, estaba usando el shampoo y acondicionador con aceite de argán de Black Diamond pero después de haberlos usado por un tiempo mi pelo comenzó a verse más rebelde y difícil de controlar. Además, me gusta alternar distintos productos para que mi cabello no se acostumbre a uno solo. Esta fue la razón por la cual me decidí a probar el shampoo Oil Miracle de Schwarzkopf que es bastante parecido al de Black Diamond ya que ambos tienen el componente de aceite.
Los pros de este shampoo son que también tiene las propiedades positivas del aceite de argán, tiene un perfume muy rico y suave y, además lo siento un poco menos pesado que el de Black Diamond.
Mi cabello se ve brillante y tiene de nuevo menos frizz, así que para mi el shampoo de Schwarzkopf  es una muy buena opción para ir alternando con otros productos y así mantener mi pelo lindo y saludable.


It's time for a new Hair Review! As I have explained before I liked the idea of having this section on my blog because I love to try different hair products. I have a big amount of hair and also a lot of volume so I usually go for hair products with oil to make my hair smooth and to prevent frizz. 
I was using the shampoo and conditioner with argain oil from Black Diamond but after using these products for a while my hair started to be less smooth and controllable. In addition I tend to alternate shampoo so that my hair doesn't get used to a certain product. So that's why I decided to try the Oil Miracle Shampoo from Schwarzkopf which is similar to the one from Black Diamond because both have the oil component. 
The pros of this shampoo are that it still has the good properties of argan oil, it has a really nice and soft scent and I feel it a little bit less heavy than the one from Black Diamond. 
My hair is shinning and it has again less frizz, so for me the Schwarzkopf shampoo is a very good option to alternate with other products and keep my hair healthy and looking good.

Hair Review: Schwarzkopf Smooth Shine Shampoo and Moisture Kick Treatment

Este mes hubo una promoción muy interesante en Las Margaritas, para los que no la conocen es una tienda genial llena de productos de belleza, que me encanta porque venden un montón de productos profesionales. La promoción consistía en 50% de descuento en algunos de los productos de Schwarzkopf y como siempre estoy dispuesta a probar nuevos productos para el pelo, decidí comprarme algo. La vendedora me recomendó estos dos productos. En primer lugar el shampoo Smooth Shine ya que estaba buscando algo para mi cabello rebelde. Este shampoo alisa bastante el pelo pero de forma natural, sin dejarlo demasiado tieso. En mi caso, aún me quedan algunas ondas pero más prolijas y además le da un montón de brillo al cabello.
Por otro lado, el tratamiento Moisture Kick es realmente intesante ya que tiene una textura como de mousse y es muy ligero. Al principio, me pareció muy extraño ya que la vendedora me había dicho que tenía que usarlo antes de secarme el pelo. Sin embargo, cuando leí las instrucciones decía que se necesitaba enjuagarlo después de 5 minutos. De manera que no estaba muy convencida cuando lo utilicé la primera vez porque el cabello me había quedado como pesado y medio pegajoso. Pero continué usándolo y mejoraron los resultados. Creo que la primera vez que lo usé había aplicado mucha cantidad del producto pero justo ayer lo volví a usar, con menos cantidad y mi pelo quedó increíble, hidratado y suave. Los productos de Schwarzkopf son un poco caros, pero cuando tenemos este tipo de promociones es una buena oportunidad para comprarlos.

This month there was a very interesting promotion in Las Margaritas, a great store full of beauty products which I love because it has a lot of professional products. There was 50% discount on some of Schwarzkopf hair products and since I am always willing to try on new things for my hair, I decided to buy something. The sales person recomended these two products for me. First, the Smooth Shine Shampoo, because I was looking for something for my rebel hair. This shampoo does smooth a lot the hair but in a very natural way. It doesn't straighten the hair too much. Also it gives a lot of shine to the hair.
On the other hand, the Moisture Kick treatment is really interesting, since it has the texture of a mousse and it is very light. At the begining I found it weird because the sales person told me to use it and then dry my hair directly. However when I read the instructions it said that it was needed to wash it out after 5 minutes. So I wasn't very convinced when I first used it. I seemed that my hair was heavy and sticky. But I continued using it and I got better results, I think that the first time I applied a little too much of the product. Just yesterday I used a little bit less and my hair looked incredible, it was very moisturised and soft.
Schwarzkopf products are a bit expensive but when we have these kind of promotions is a good chance to buy them.
