HAIR
For the past couple of months, I’ve been struggling to find the right skincare and haircare products that will work for me. I thought I was obsessed with Olaplex but it seemed to make my hair extremely dry and super dull, it almost made it seem like my hair was falling out? I decided to do some research on this and I was not the only one who had the same issues with Olaplex!!! I decided to stop using their shampoo & conditioner and to try a new haircare line that my salon uses which is called Mr.Smith. Let me tell you this, my hair completely transformed. It finally has that shine and bounce it used to have and I couldn’t be happier plus it smells amazing since they use essential oils in their products!
I was also introduced to Unite products at my hair salon about a year ago. When I was using the Olaplex products my hair would get so tangled and knotty that I needed to use some sort of detangler or leave-in conditioner and this was the best product to use! I was only able to brush through my hair if I used this product and it also seemed to bring back some shine to it as well.

SKIN
Another issue I have been dealing with but haven’t quite fixed has been my skin! I’m not sure if I’m breaking out more than usual because of stress from work or if it’s just acting up because of what I’m eating/drinking. I’ve seen a couple of different estheticians but am still in the process of figuring out what the issue is and what products will work for me. After a custom facial, I was sent home with samples of the SkinMedica Sensitive Skin Cleanser and the PCA CliniCalm Moisturizer. She explained to me that the products I was using before could have been drying out my skin too much causing a breakout/reaction. I’ve seen a huge difference with my skin but still have some small bumps on my forehead which drive me crazy. The CliniCalm is awesome to use when I get a random reaction/rash because it has 1% of hydrocortisone in it which helps soothe and relieve any redness or irritation.

Any recommendations are welcome!!! I’m always eager to try new products!
