New Products Alert


When it comes to my face, I always love trying new products. Some may work, some not but it's better to try them and know for sure, then to wonder. 


I first heard about Josie Maran Argan Oil from Actress Ellen Pompeo, who has amazing skin, and decided to do some research. It’s made from 100% pure Argan nut oil that can be used for hair, body and face…anywhere! It’s not greasy and absorbs fast as it heals and conditions.

The first time I used it on my hair, I noticed the results right away. It made my hair softer, and unlike other oils, which made my hair feel greasy after 2 days (I wash my hair every other day), this just felt soft.

I also used it on my face at night instead of my usual moisturizer and again, I noticed the difference. I’ve dealt with eczema on my eyelids on and off for years, and because of waxing I got non-contaigious warts under my eyebrows; all of which I’ve used prescriptive medication from my dermatologist to get rid of, and while creams and gels have worked, the Argan oil healed my skin much faster and gentler than anything else.


Want that Beachy look without having to go to a beach? Then this is the product for you. There are 3 ways to use it. Once you've applied your favourite de-frizzer (like above) on wet hair, comb it through then spray this in, then you can either scrunch it; mess with it, until you’re satisfied with it and then let it air dry, or pull your hair into a low bun; securing it with 2 or 3 bobby pins and letting it dry, lastly you can section your hair into 2 parts twisting each area and securing it on your head with 2 or 3 bobby pins and letting it dry. Each result with give you soft beachy, loose waves without frizz, stickiness or the crunch. You can also To tame any flyaways, I like to use Argan Oil.

This product is great on those humid days when (if you’re like me) you step outside and your hair turns into a frizz ball. It’s great when you’re travelling somewhere where you’ll be on a beach and straightening your hair is pointless, or going to be spending all day outdoors (like me at the race track) and want something easy to manage.

Now, keep in mind that both products are on the expensive side.

I bought the travel size of Josie Maran’s Argan Oil for $20 and travel size of Bumble and Bumble Surf Pray for $19.50 (both at Sephora).

While I had great results for both, it's best to try them out for yourself to see for sure as everyone has different hair and skin types, and I hope that you enjoy and get the same outcome as I did.
