Beauties...Seriously. My hair usually looks this way when I leave the salon! The instyler is super easy to use and gives you - yes, even you - a way to style your hair like the professionals. Straightening my hair with the instyler was faster than with my traditoinal flat iron, too. I think it has to do with the attached brushes which smooth the hair. There are 3 heat settings: high for thick/course hair, medium for normal hair, and low for thin/limp hair. I used the highest settings because, as you can see from the pics, I have thick and extremely curly hair. And, the instyler worked wonders on my hair.
The instyler gets hot! I mean really hot. I was concerned with the barrel since it's exposed and can easily touch my nape area, back and chest. It's also quite noisy. As the barrel rotates, it does give off a buzzing, motor sound. The instyler is a bit chunkier than a typical flat iron which may make it uncomfortable to handle especially for someone with smaller hands. With it's chunkiness, it wouldn't be ideal for travel either. All in all, this product is amazing. The infomercials are real. I didn't believe it initially. But you can be the judge by checking out my before and after pictures.
Here's a few GRW tips for usage. Be sure to use a heat protectant on your hair because the instyler does get extremely hot. Use a steady, slow guide through your hair. Use smaller sections for bone straight hair.
PROS:
salon-quality results
3 heat settings
heats up in under 10 secs
curls and straightens
sustains heat throughout styling
CONS:
noisy
exposed barrel
"chunky"

Neutrogena has jumped on the natural ingredient bandwagon - Yay! I'm simply adoring their purifying facial cleanser infused with willowbark - a natural salicylic acid. So how does it compare to Loreal 360 Clean you ask?
I prefer the packaging of Neutrogena Naturals Purifying Facial Cleanser to Loreal's 360 because its a shorter, more compact bottle. And, best of all, it has a pump! Hey, I can't help it. I'm a pump girl. Neutrogena Naturals...the name says it all. It's a more natural and gentler facial cleanser. Neutrogena lists all of the natural products on the back of the bottle and what each product does. Very cool. The cleanser is 90% naturally derived and smells ahhh-mazing. Just like freshly picked green apples. The formula is "thinner" than Loreal's 360 Clean. It initially applies with little to no lather. But once you begin adding water it becomes more sudsy. It doesn't leave your skin feeling stiff or dry either. My face actually feels refreshed, light and naturally clean after using. However, it doesn't seem to melt the makeup off of my face like Loreal 360 Clean. I usually do a repeat wash for those days when I'm wearing lots of makeup just to ensure everything is removed from my face thoroughly. I'd definitely repurchase it. I feel its a pretty great product and I would recommend it to my friends. At this point, I can't choose which I like better - Loreal 360 Clean or Neutrogena Naturals. Honestly, either choice will be a great one.
Until the next review.... Here's to skinny pores, clear skin, and being blemish-free. Don't forget to follow GRW. What are you waiting for...show some LOVE ♥♥♥.
