Ouidad Product Launch And Giveaway!

Hey there curly girls this one’s for you!!

I am super excited to tell you about FOUR new products that curly hair company Ouidad has just released to make your spring and summer perfectly curl-iscious!

Ouidad Advanced Climate Control For Curly Hair

Win all four Ouidad Advanced Climate Control products!

If you were following me last year you will have seen that I used the travel sized Ouidad products to make my life easier (and retain the glam!) while I was on my Glam Italia Tours. We were diving off of chartered boats of the coasts of both Capri and Puglia, and swimming in the Mediterranean and the Adriatic, which was absolutely amazing, but could have been fraught with hair anxiety for me if not for Ouidad! My once wavy hair has become super curly, but not pretty curly. I always say that when left to it’s own devices my hair looks like a really bad home perm gone drastically wrong. If you are a curly girl then you already know how something as simple as swimming, or being in humidity can be a glamour buzzkill. Having Ouidad with me meant that I could swim as much as I wanted. The combination of the Advanced Climate Control Heat And Humidity Gel to let my hair air dry into perfect curls, casually done without a mirror while sailing around the coast of Capri, and their Moisture Lock Leave In Conditioner, which was my favorite beauty product of the summer and possibly of the year, meant that I could swim and still have pretty hair.

Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Set

On April 3rd Ouidad launched four Advanced Climate Control products designed to keep the frizz at bay while you rock your curly girl glam.

Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Defrizzing Shampoo

Curl and frizz control start in the shower, so the first product is the new Advanced Climate Control Defrizzing Shampoo. This sulphate free cleanser maintains your curl’s protective barrier, has silk proteins to seal the cuticle, holding in moisture and preventing frizz, and also contains UV Protectants.

Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Defrizzing Conditioner

Curls crave moisture, so without very specific help that keeps moisture balanced and doesn’t weight the hair down, your hair will try to grab it from the atmosphere, which raises the cuticle and creates the dreaded frizz. Advanced Climate Control Defrizzing Conditioner prevents frizz and unwanted (and uncontrolled) volume, balances moisture to keep your curl defined and bouncy, while silk proteins and nano technology smooths the cuticle so you maintain glorious shine.

Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Detangling Heat Spray

Spritz, prime, protect, The Advanced Climate Control Detangling Heat Spray needs to be a permanent fixture in your beach bag! Not only does it prevent frizz and flyaways and unwanted volume, not only does it help detangle and make curls manageable,  not only does it have UV filters to protect your hair from environmental aggressors, but it also contains natural oils to nourish and moisturize your curls. Spritz it into your hair before you hit the water and it protects your hair while you’re swimming, use it as a primer before you start styling – curly girl meet your new best friend! And it smells amazing!

Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Heat and Humidity Gel

 

Advanced Climate Control Heat And Humidity Gel is the ultimate curl styler. Trust me curly girl, this product will give you life! When you have curls you know that gels can make your hair look crunchy, kill any chance of movement in the hair, kill any natural bounce. But without a styling aid your curl, whether it be wavy or kinky, can take on a life of it’s own and give you too much volume with zero discipline. The Advanced Climate Control Heat and Humidity Gel changes everything.

You don’t use this product like a regular gel, instead you divide your hair into four sections, run the gel through one section at a time, rake through it with your fingers, and then holding pieces of the section at the ends shake the curl up into the hair. Ouidad’s Rake and Shake technique is brilliant! It’s also super easy to do, easy enough that you can whip out fabulous curls without a mirror, on the deck of a boat, with no drama and no one knowing what you’re up to! Ouidad’s award winning Heat and Humidity Gel was upgraded with the Anti Frizz Nano Technology, so it’s even better than before!

Ouidad make all manner of hair products for hair that is anywhere from wavy to curly to full blown kinky. These new products are designed for all curl types, so wherever you are on the curly spectrum, this set is for you! They are not just for beach days and vacations, this is a product range for every day in the life of a curly girl.

5 Essential Beauty Products For Winter

essential-beauty-products-for-winter

The barometer has finally dropped here in Phoenix, and our endless days of temperatures in the 80’s have disappeared for a while leaaving us with bone chilling highs in the 60’s.

You may laugh but I’m sitting in my house freezing, with thick socks, sweats and a fleece on!

The change in temperature means skin, hair and scalp need extra lovin, so I’ve been clicking away on Amazon.com (how did we ever survive without it???), re-ordering my winter staples.

5 Essential Beauty Products For Winter

Nioxin hair Dermabrasion Treatment 75 ml / 2.5 oz ANTI-AGING TREATMENT 

nioxin-scalp-renew

Just as the skin on your face needs exfoliating, so does the skin on your scalp. I’ve written about this magic product several times before – I use it at the beginning of each season. When you clear your scalp your hair grows in thicker and shinier. I always see a big difference in mine, it gets glossier, fuller and bouncier. And there’s no time quite like the holidays to get bouncy hair!

Malin and Goetz Recovery Treatment Oil

malin-goetz-recovery-oil

Winter skin needs a booster product, and nothing beats a good facial oil. The Malin and Goetz Recovery Treatment Oil instantly makes skin look and feel smoother, softer, more supple and its proprietary blend of 9 natural oils and powerful antioxidants help combat signs of aging while making your complexion radiant.
You can buy it online at Space NK

Weleda Skin Food, 2.5 Ounce

weleda-skin-food

I learned about this one a few years back when my friend Nico moved back from Milan. When your skin is dry, when it has to battle cold weather, when it’s just feeling tired out, lacking luster, looking dull, Weleda Skin Food is the most amazing balm like moisturizer that is the best rescue product ever!
Find it at Target or at Amazon

Ouai Treatment Mask

Ouai-treatment-mask

cold weather, wind, central heating and hats all rough your hair up and dry it out. These deep treatment masks (there are 8 in the box)
repair hair and leave it smooth and shiny after just one treatment.
Fabulous.
Available online at Space NK

Dr Lipp Original Nipple Balm For Lips

nipple-balm-for-lips

It’s no secret that one of the most effective products for cracked, chapped or dry lips is good old nipple cream. Anyone who has breast fed a baby will know all about nipple creams, and how healing and soothing they are both to sore nipples and to lips in need!
You can also use this to groom brows, add shine to cheeks, and even as a cuticle cream.
Find it online at Space NK.com

And The Winner Is….
