Klorane Shampoo/Conditioner with Pomegranate

Klorane is very popular in Europe and I often see their dry shampoo backstage during Fashion Week (though when I was in Paris for the shows two years ago I noticed the brand being used considerably more over there). Well…the Europeans are on to something! The brand’s philosophy is to meld natural ingredients with proven … Continue reading “Klorane Shampoo/Conditioner with Pomegranate”

Keratin Complex Volumizing Dry Shampoo

As much as I love Oscar Blandi’s dry shampoo, it’s not convient to travel with (I’d have to tape down the cap and even then I’d risk the powder spilling out), so while I was in Seattle I took the opportunity to test out a new dry shampoo and went with Keratin Complex Volumizing Dry … Continue reading “Keratin Complex Volumizing Dry Shampoo”

Last week however was one … Continue reading “Oscar Blandi Pronto Dry Shampoo”

Which might sound a little strange. But it looks like I’m in good company! Back in the late fifties, the brilliant makeup … Continue reading “Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil Shampoo: Pour Oil on Troubled Waters”

Hair Masks: The Snob and The Slob

I don’t ask much from my masks and conditioners just that they de-tangle and hydrate my hair, which at the moment is particularly dry because of the fall-to-winter transition. That’s not too much to ask now is it!? I have a lot of hair, but it’s long and thin – hence the knots. In any … Continue reading “Hair Masks: The Snob and The Slob”
