4/5 pumps of this Dream Curls Daily Styling Spray into my palm is enough for my whole length of hair (waist length). I scrunch it into my hair and allow it to dry finding it has really helped define my curls more than before I started using it. I don't like to put a lot of styling product into my hair as it can easily feel sticky and weighed down if I'm not careful and use sparingly so 4 or so pumps is enough for me at the moment. When I wake up the next morning I do find my hair looks matted and feels tacky to the touch and can also be difficult to comb through so to alleviate this I spritz a little cold water over my hair to revive the curls a bit. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt. I need to play around with this spray some more and find a consistency that works for me. To be continued... -
John Frieda Frizz Ease Dream Curls Curl Nourishing Crème Oil
As much as I'm wanting to love this creme-oil I've found it too heavy for my hair at the moment even with just a small blob the size of a pea. I don't like my hair looking straggly (you know the effect I mean) and feeling a bit tacky to touch and... +
As much as I'm wanting to love this creme-oil I've found it too heavy for my hair at the moment even with just a small blob the size of a pea. I don't like my hair looking straggly (you know the effect I mean) and feeling a bit tacky to touch and unfortunately this oil does just that. The smallest amount leaves my curls looking greasy which is far from the look I want. The product itself, when rubbed into the skin on the back of my hand, is lovely and light and absorbs well there but just doesn't work for my hair personally. It's all trial and error though so I will try again at some point and find what works do me.
Now if this crème-oil could be produced as a nourishing skincare product at some point in the future.. *hint hint*

With so many products and ranges on the market nowadays specifically for curly hair it can feel overwhelming trying to find the product that finally your hair screams YESSS!! to. So when I was offered to try this product range created especially for us curly heads I couldn't say no could I?!
I tend to condition my hair on every other wash as I find my hair becomes overladen with product quite quickly and none of us likes nor wants that horrible heavy feeling of product build-up do we. I'm finding this conditioner to be light and easy to spread through my hair, making sure every strand is saturated with product for the best results. Leaving it on for a good 40 - 60 minutes under a shower cap whilst I get on with other tasks gives it enough time to work as the heat from my head helps with absorption. Once rinsed off I'm left with softer waves with no tangles at all. A comb through and gentle scrunching with a clean t-shirt to remove excess water and then I'm good to go - leaving it to air dry if I'm staying at home. My natural curls (when I haven't styled my hair at all) have been looking more defined and bouncer than before using this conditioner. It'll be interesting to see results of longer term use. Also to add, I absolutely adore the fragrance of this product I have to say, it's gorgeous and reminds me of crisp spring mornings. *deep inhale*

Finding a sulphate-free shampoo that properly cleanses my hair without leaving it feeling dry like straw, tangled and with a scalp that can only be described as rolling around in a desert full of stinging nettles, as well as being appropriate to use on my curls has been trying. It really has. I've found washing my hair with this Frizz Ease Dream Curls shampoo is helping alleviate these hair concerns somewhat, and even after one use my hair and curls felt more manageable. It would be interesting to see the results after longer term use. This formula rinses out well and leaves my hair feeling like it's had a really deep clean. I wet my hands before pouring a dollop of the cream into my palm then rub my hands together to warm it up a little before applying to my head (remember: scalp, not ends). Enough foam is created by doing this to easily spread across my head making sure my entire scalp.is coated. I just adore the fragrance also....hmm just lovely, perfect for spring. -

Having been using this once daily for a couple of weeks ive found it leaving my skin feeling lovely and nourished after application with no signs of skin irritation. It's lightweight enough to be used both as part of your morning or night time beauty routine. My preference is applying it just before bed so the ingredients can work their magically sleep. With my morning routine I like to wear it as a primer almost as it allows my foundation to sit well in too without pilling or caking specially around my nose and just in front of my ears. Lovely stuff. -

My lips can become ever so dry when the seasons turn to the colder months so finding this lip balm was a godsend. Nourishes my lips without feeling greasy or sticky, no awful taste or fragrance. I find it lasts about 4-5 hours on my lips before needing a refresh though keep in mind I do lick my lips a lot generally. My handbag staple. -

I've been using this for a while now and am very happy with it. Using it on sopping wet hair has worked best for me as then it doesn't leave my hair tacky or gunky in any way. I spritz and comb it through my hair gently before applying curl gel and voila...no knots or tangles within my curls. Happy days! -

A lil FYI first: this shampoo isn't sulphate and paraben free so if you're wanting such a product this may not be the one for you. Saying that, I enjoy using this shampoo as it is gentle on my hair and dry scalp surprisingly. It isn't very foaming so again, bear that in mind if wanting to try it, and so you really have to work the product into your hair with the help of water to distribute it around. Rinses out well and leaves my hair softer and manageable with no irritation to my scalp thankfully. -

Oh my, my scalp couldn't get enough of this mask - it drank it in! I've got quite a dry and sensitive scalp to the more nutrients and nourishment it can grab it does. The thick consistency of this mask was just right enough to be able to spread all over my head and hair with rinsing out being easy. I do tend to have to rinse twice with any mask used in general so this was nothing new. My scalp was left soothed and happy, my locks more tamed and hydrated. I'm a happy girl & would recommend this mask for sure! -

This conditioner leaves my hair more manageable, enhances my waves and rinses out very well with no irritation and disruption to my dry scalp. The gel like formula is of a medium consistency and a little goes a long way in useage.
