Naturigin Permanent Hair Dye 4.0 Brown | Review

So I came across this brand on instagram, read some reviews and thought I'd give it a try. I liked the fact it has low PPD levels and some oils in it to let hair shine and protect whilst colouring it. I was using henna to dye my hair which was perfect, but its temporary and sort of washes and fades after a few weeks as its a semi dye. So I thought once in a while I'll try use a Permanent hair dye. You still get a good tone or shade in the hair with henna but my greys were coming back with henna - not too badly but I think even with henna they covered it for a few weeks which was impressive. I thought I'd try permanent hair dye but a brand thats not a high street one with alot of chemicals in it. This brand has the lowest PPD levels according to other hair dyes, along with no ammonia, hydrogen peroxide. I wasn't expecting bleach in this anyway as its a darker colour. 

There were alot of good reviews on how it covered greys, I only have a few on my crown randomly scattered, I could probably get way with not dying it, but its such a contrast with dark hair, it bugs me! I can say that it covers grey hairs really well...I just need to see how long it lasts...colourwise on my dark hair, I have a warm tone brown shade to my hair. Probably will go lighter in the sun which I don't mind. 

The scent of the dye is not strong, its either floral and barely noticeable. The only negative I have is, its a slim bottle and when high street dye brands like Loreal and Clairol can cover all of your hair, Naturigin didn't! By the time I did my roots I barely had a third of product left to sparingly go over my ends. I do have thick below the shoulder hair but usually one bottle is usually enough, but next time I will have to get two.

Also I did love the aftercare hair conditioner, was surprised to see a blue gel, but it was softening for my hair and lathered really well not to mention smelled great! 

My Final Thought
Covers greys really well, just have to see how long it lasts. Shade was lovely a dark warm brown. Dye it self - there's not much in it for whole head covering so next time I will have to buy two which isn't cost savvy but alot cheaper than the salons I suppose! Also it felt like it was gentle on the hair as my roots and scalp didnt feel sore like it usually does after a permanent hair dye. My hair hasn't dried out either.

It has been two weeks I dyed my hair, my greys are still covered..not as dark as when I first dyed it but not that visible and blends in with the rest of my hair. My hair also feels soft, as if I never even dyed it which is impressive as usually dye can make the ends feel abit dry and frizzy.

I think I will probably try this again but in a few months, and may go a shade lighter for summer.

It's Pure Organics Herbal Hair Colour Dark Brown | Review

Natural Hair Dye by It's Pure Organics in Dark Brown Review All I can say is wish I knew about this dye sooner!    My hair history this past year...I've gone through pregnancy hair loss and dryness, not to mention having a no dye period when I was pregnant. This is why I went crazy with the dyes once my LO was born! I ombre'd my hair which meant my ends were bleached twice, coloured and used toners many times to keep ends dark blonde and ashy. Then semi colours on the roots/mid length to keep my hair and a few greys dark and glossy. So all this basically meant my hairs been in a really dry, brittle and frizzy state. It's ruined my natural waves all because of wanted an ombre. Something I'll never do again as its hard maintain when you naturally have dark hair that has a tendency to go orange tinged. I've had regular trims which have helped but after a while hair starts too look rough, lacking lustre and no shine. I think this is partially due to a bad...

Naturtint Permanent Hair Dye in 6N Dark Blonde and 7N Hazelnut Blonde| Review

Image
So over the past year I have tried a few different hair dyes, toners mainly from drugstores like Boots or Superdrugs and I always seem to come back to the Naturtint range. I find the coverage and the shade very much close to whats on the box, my hair NEVER ends up going jet black which it has done from other dye brands. I especially like the 'Natural/Neutral' range in Naturtint, its not too warm or too cool, just a very natural mid brown toned shade and I love it. I usually swap between 5N and 6N depending if i wanted to go abit darker or lighter. Over the summer I decided to mix 6N and 7N to see if I could go abit more lighter so I mixed both shades together. I have asian dark brown practically looking black hair and when I use the shade 5N I get a nice medium to dark brown shade to my hair.  When I want to get a more light medium brown shade thats more prominant and noticable then I usually go for 6N which I'd say is the perfect...

EX1 Invisiwear Liquid Foundation & EX1 Delete Concealer Review and Swatches

Image
EX1 Invisiwear Liquid Foundation This brand is fairly new and was founded by Farah Naz. Like many asians its hard to find foundations that match your skin tone perfectly. Some are too pink toned, high street brand only go upto a certain shade which doesn't cater for asian complexions or you find a shade but the brand is too expensive! Farah Naz has brought out a range specifically for olive skin tones. When she says olive, it means its suitable for Middle Eastern, Asian, South American or Mediterranean skintones. Shade: I came across EX1 Costmetics on twitter, Faryal Makhdoom posted a picture of some of the products and it intrigued me to visit their website. I read somewhere that they now have the brand in Topshop in Oxford Street so I went and purchased the shade F300. I did swatch the F200 in store but I think thats more of an NC 25-30 shade. F300 is perfect for NC35-40 skintone which is me. NC40 or NC42 onwards is probably the F400. F400 is a medium-tan colour.  ...
