I have to say that Olia was an awesomely different experience than expected. Because it has a non-ammonia, oil based formula, it doesn't have that nostril hair singeing smell we all get reminded of every time we hold a new box of at-home color. I use the blue-black varieties of hair color which usually, after a less than satisfactory amount of washes, turns gray. I'm assuming because the blue tint is the first to fade. But with using Garnier Olia's 10-BlueBlack, it seemed like the blue stayed livelier and survived more washes than a regular hair color. My hair also stayed shinier longer than expected. I did find that there was a lot of pigment still escaping (I rinsed for everrrr!) after a few washes. More than usual. So I would say (just at first) to watch out for white towels and pillowcases if you are going with a darker shade.
I would definitely recommend Olia and honestly wish that every brand would start an oil non-ammonia line of hair color!

For me, using this foundation makes primers and powders unnecessary. It's a one step system for covering blemishes and even blending in wrinkles! (It must be the awesome mattifying effect) I have bumpy blemished skin but I was truly impressed with how nicely it glided on and how light it felt. It's a better idea to use a clean makeup sponge to apply this foundation instead of your finger (especially if you have acne prone skin) which is a bit inconvenient if you're on the go. But that little issue will soon be overlooked because of its long wear and less frequent need for touch-ups.
I most def recommend this one, ladies!

With fine, frizzy hair like mine (yes, very odd combo) using volumizing shampoos is a risk for me. They usually help draw moisture from the surrounding environment and make the hair shaft swell to create the illusion of fuller, thicker hair. What this creates for me is huge messball of frizz and stringy ends. BUT!!! Dove oxygen moisture shampoo completely pumped my hair up and kept it smooooth from root to end so no more stringy ends! Dove oxygen shampoo felt really rich and luxurious and distributed well through my hair. It's fragrance is light and refreshing similar to cucumber or melon. (I might have wanted to taste it a little bit :)
I recommend this product for anyone who has fine, problematic hair.

In looking for a new conditioner, I began using Goldwell Dual Senses Color Shampoo and Conditioner. It has a brilliant system with pomegranate extract and UV filter with instant microfluid technology. It is designed for fine, color treated hair. Before, my hair was coarse and frizzy but after the first wash, using only two pumps, I noticed it felt significantly repaired! Volumizing and moisturizing without weighing down the hair, it also works well as a leave in conditioner. After a week, my hair was much more tame and easily managed. And the delicious pomegranate scent will follow you around all day long! It lasts forever even into the next morning!
Unfortunately, it is restricted by contract to sales in professional hair salons only, but it is definitely worth the special trip and the price.
I highly recommend this shampoo and Conditioner.
(It smells sooooo good)
