Hey guys. I'm back for another post after a pretty abnormally long, unannounced hiatus from blogging. More on that later, but I want to tell you about the Marc Anthony True Professional Red Carpet Hair Workshop I attended last week. If you want to know more about some haircare tips that I've learnt from the workshop, stay with me!
These are some of the existing Marc Anthony products in the market. Marc Anthony also just launched two newer product series: Strictly Curls Curl Envy 24-Hour Moisture Treatment and Oil of Morocco styling range which are the highlights of this post.
1. Strictly Curls Curl Envy 24-Hour Moisture Treatment
The Strictly Curls Envy 24-Hour Moisture Treatment (135ml) assures hair of high degree of hydration and frizz-control for 24 hours. It is formulated with hydrolyzed wheat, soy and oat proteins to restore strength and improve manageability of your hair. It fights breakage and split ends. This will be very useful for people who needs to control their frizzy manes! It is fantastic because it has a lightweight formula. I tested it out on my hair and the back of my hand, it feels very, very watery and light in a white-gel form. It also has a fleeting floral fragrance. The Strictly Curls Envy 24-Hour Moisture Treatment retails at $18.90.
2. Oil of Morocco Argan Oil Volume Shine Hairspray
We always have the impression that hairsprays are definitely harmful to our hair. However, this Oil of Morocco Argan Oil Volume Shine Hairspray (300ml) allows extra volume, shine and hold to allow nourishing and styling, two-in-one bottle!. Best for busy people who still needs to look good all the time! How is that possible? We can understand it better from the ingredients within the hairspray, which includes argan oil, keratin and grape seed oil for strong and flexible hold with deep nourishment and conditioning. It also has a sun-protecting function to prevent sun damage to your hair. The best part of this hairspray is... it has zero stickiness, no synthetic chemical smells, and no flakiness. This effectively removes all my concerns about hairsprays! This product left the deepest impression on me due to its efficacy. The Oil of Morocco Argan Oil Volume Shine Hairspray retails at $6.90.
3. Oil of Morocco Argan Oil 3X Volume Cream
For extra volume, hold and shine, this Oil of Morocco Argan Oil 3X Volume Cream (175ml) works wonders. I know this for a fact because the stylist artist, Sean, performed an instant transformation on limp hair (see below). This volumizing cream is formulated with argan oil, shea butter, vitamin E and keratin - all the ingredients to ensure tip-top hair condition. The Oil of Morocco Argan Oil 3X Volume Cream retails at $18.90.
4. Oil of Morocco Argan Oil 3 Day Smooth Perfect Blow Dry Cream
To defy the drying and frizzing effects of blow-drying your hair, you have the Oil of Morocco Argan Oil 3 Day Smooth Perfect Blow Dry Cream (200ml) to your rescue. It aims to hold your hair straight, frizz-free and shiny for up to 3 days or till your next hair wash. It is infused with Mediterranean olive oil, argan oil, shea butter and exclusive anti-frizz lock technology for straight hair. The Oil of Morocco Argan Oil 3 Day Smooth Perfect Blow Dry Cream retails at $18.90.
Now for the demonstration of how Sean revitalized limp hair with simple steps under one minute. I described limp hair as the sort of hair condition that most people have after they washed their hair and just leave it to dry naturally, or worse, frizzy hair if you were to blow dry it without any protection seal for your hair. Hair is really important in changing how presentable someone looks and frizzy hair never goes unnoticed.
Rub the Oil of Morocco Argan Oil 3 Day Smooth Perfect Blow Dry Cream into the palm of your hands and work it evenly through damp hair from roots to ends. Thereafter, you can repeat the same steps with the Oil of Morocco Argan Oil 3X Volume Cream for extra volume. Blow dry for a frizz-free, smooth finish. This probably will take even lesser than a minute if you're quick with your hands. Check out the difference between both sides of Jeraldine's hair!
Haircare tips: (1) Spread the cream through your fingers by criss-crossing your fingers as if you're washing them for comprehensive coverage when you work your fingers through hair. (2) Invest in a good natural bristle brush for your blow-drying process.
I'm not sure how best to describe this in words, but I guess each picture above speaks for itself. This is an almost one step easy method to create the shape of an up-do, followed by securing it with multiple bobby pins by tucking them inwards. Finish off by fixing it in position with the Oil of Morocco Argan Oil Volume Shine Hairspray.
Haircare tips: (1) Use this hairspray to minimize damage and maximize nourishment! This hairspray is very different in its texture. You can try it for yourself with the 'testers' in beauty stores, the difference is extremely obvious.
