Must haves 2023 ✨

Hey gals! If you’re someone who loves investing on themselves then you should definitely read about these amazing products i’ve discovered and ultimately added to my daily routine! I was new to some products and even some brands but it was an unexpected pleasant experience.

Olaplex NÂş.7 Bonding Oil;

The Nº.7 Bond Building Oil, infused with patented OLAPLEX Bond Building Technology, is a weightless, reparative styling oil that dramatically increases shine, softness and color vibrancy while providing heat protection of up to 450º F (232º C). I prefer using this particular oil before and after i’m done styling my hair with my Dyson Airwrap. I love how it smooths away each strand while not weighing down my hair. This is perfect for someone with colored hair too, I have been using this product since a month now and absolutely love it.

Kerastase Serum Extentioniste Scalp & Hair Serum;

This can be used on wet or dry hair. Just section your hair and add in a few drops on the scalp and just slightly rub it in. Make sure you massage it into your roots properly and then you comb out your hair. This wont leave your hair greasy or oily and it has a very mild scent added as well. This serum helps supporting healthy hair length with key ingredients of Creatine R (which amino acid that reinforces the internal structure of the hair fiber) and Ceramides (enhances shine, elasticity and retains moisture in those locks).

Rare beauty Lip Oil;

This has to be my top favourite and my first ever purchase from Selena Gomez’s brand, Rare Beauty. This is so beautifully pigmented and I love how it can stay on for hours and doesn’t require reapplying regardless of whatever you do. I got the shade Joy which is a peach or coral shade. I love how it has this cooling effect on my lips. You need to buy this in order to tell how amazing this is. It’s a lip oil plus a long wear tint for your lips too. And super low maintenance. It contains Jojoba Seed Oil and Sunflower Seed Oil hence it’s highly hydrating and protects your lips from harsh environments. It’s not sticky nor is it heavily scented. I’ve been using this amazing product since 3 weeks and I always go for this from my dresser.

Givenchy: ROSE PERFECTO PLUMPING LIP BALM 24H HYDRATION;

This is extremely hydrating and leaves a very natural tint even when it comes off. The shade I’m using is Pink Irresistible. It’s rich in Hyaluronic Acid and Shea Butter. Perfect for winters or when travelling. It’s just super natural and just enhances your own natural lip color. I love the leather packing of this lip balm as well. This is extremely worth it and not that hyped up like The Dior Backstage Balm. Currently I am trying to get my hands on their new “Black” Lip balm which helps bring out your own natural lip color. It’s sold out everywhere right now, so it might take a few weeks.

NYX Fat Oil Lip Drip Lip Gloss

I recently got this and I cannot stop putting this on my lips. I am a huge fan of lip balms and lip glosses (ever since I was a kid). The shade I got from this line is, “Missed call” and I plan on getting, “Follow back” next. This enhances your own natural lip color and doesn’t really have much of a tint, it’s just glossy and hydrating. If you’re a fan of Lipglosses you need to buy this.

Bioderma Atoderm Ultra Nourishing Cream;

This is an amazing moisturiser for your face or even skin specifically if you have a dry and sensitive skin. This is fragrance free and won’t clog your pores either. I apply this at least thrice in a day for a extremely plumped up and hydrated look. Bioderma is an infamous french skin care brand and I’ve previously used their micellar water (which is a total winner too).

Cetaphil Gentle Oil-Free Makeup Remover;

Perfect for someone who has a sensitive skin and wants to get rid off that stubborn mascara or makeup more gently. All you need it to mix or shake the bottle, put some product on a cotton pad and gently glide it over your makeup (voila you’re done). Just to do a double cleanse I wash my face with a good facial cleanser.

Soap & Glory Facewash;

I absolutely love this facewash and I’m on my 4th bottle already. This does not over-dry my face and is very gentle. Would definitely recommend this to everyone, regardless of how your skin may be this is perfect for everyone. If you’re living in Pakistan you should definitely get your stock for a year considering how imports are being made less available for customers.

Lastly the greatest investment i’ve made this year was on my Dyson Air wrap;

Best Heat Protectors/ Hair Serums

I hope you’re all doing well. So I absolutely love styling my hair be it curls, beachwaves or simply straight and sleek, in order to make sure my hair gets minimal damage I spend a lot on heat protectants and oils which protect the hair from high heat. And I also got a Dyson Airwrap so my hair can legit get “minimal” damage when styling. Here are some of my favourite products tried and tested;

Olaplex Bonding Oil: $30

https://olaplex.com/products/olaplex-no-7-bonding-oil

A highly-concentrated, weightless reparative styling oil. It’s also highly recommended to someone who colored their hair. Some of the other benefits it claims to have are that it; repairs damaged and compromised hair, strengthens and protects hair structure lastly restores healthy appearance and texture. I personally used this 4-5 times so far and I prefer using it before and after I style my hair with my Dyson AirWrap.

Kerastase: Oléo-Relax Advanced Hair Oil $45

https://www.kerastase-usa.com/collections/discipline/oleo-relax-advanced-hair-oil.html

I absolutely love the scent of this serum and how amazing it makes my hair texture. Used 3 serums of Kerastase but this one takes the cake. This is my third bottle of this serum and sadly they don’t sell this one in my country now and I need to place an order online or ask someone to get it for me. This again acts like a really good heat protectant and leaving your hair super moisturised simultaneously. Out of the two serums mentioned here this one is more scented, I don’t know if it’s a good thing or not but this is my absolute favourite from the Kerastase range.

Bumble & Bumble Hairdresser’s Invisible Oil $43

https://www.bumbleandbumble.com/product/19060/23196/style/oils/hairdressers-invisible-oil

I discovered this product last year at Sephora Americana Glendale and this has been on my dresser ever since. I got 2 bottles, one mini/travel size and one full sized. This was pricey but this oil had a shelf life of 24 months once opened, so it’s worth the money. It’s enriched with 6 oils, meant for thicker hair to tame down the frizz and as well as to act as an excellent heat protector. I preferred using this particularly when curling my hair (since it takes a lot of heat to do it).

Lastly I’d like to add is that you need good organic oils on your hair too at least twice a week be it coconut, olive or almond oil. Nothing can beat organic hair care. Massaging oils can help relax your scalp and be good for your hair follicles as well as dried out strands while promoting growth.

Hair Care 2022.

Hey guys! I hope you’re all having an amazing summer and I hope you’re all safe. Today i’ll tell you about some of my favourite hair care products. I have bleached strands since I had gotten a balayage done so it needs a lot of after care to make sure my hair doesn’t lose it’s moisture and shine.

Hair Oil;

Olive oil or Zonano’s Hair oil.

I oil my hair atleast twice a week. I cannot skip it at any cost. This is a old yet very effective method to make sure your hair stays healthy, thick and keeps growing. First I used to use olive oil, make sure you don’t get the salad dressing oil by mistake. Olive oil is rich in vitamins and the best part is that it does not stink. I cannot stand a bad odour so I never use any oil with a bad smell. Moving on, I recently discovered this home made oil company, Zonano’s. Let me tell you one thing, this oil changed my hair game. It defined my natural hair texture which are long waves. Everyone loves how naturally my hair dries and how defined my waves are naturally (after using this oil). You need to try Zonano’s if you live in Pakistan. They have an Instagram handle as well, they’re available at all leading retailers (Alfatah and Naheed). I just hope they don’t lose their quality after expanding so much. This is my absolute favourite hair oil. I’m in LA right now and i packed my Zonano’s hair oil in my travel set, just so i’m able to keep up with my hair care.

Shampoo;

Loreal Serie Expert Vitamino Color.

Since I told you guys earlier I have color treated hair, my shampoo focuses on color protection. Just so my color does not come off unnecessarily. It’s high maintenance to color your hair. I’m very basic when it comes to my shampoo. I can easily find this brand everywhere. Something less complicated.

Mask;

Loreal Serie Expert biotin mask &/or K18 leave in Conditioner:

I have 2 hair masks. I always use a hair mask after shampooing. One of the options is the wash off hair mask which is the Loreal Serie Expert one and it smells amazing and my hair feels so silky smooth while the K18 leave-on conditioner/mask one is something I recently started using since 2 weeks. I absolutely love these two products. These cannot be used at the same time. It’s either one of these.You are suppose to skip conditioner/mask step when you use your K18 leave in mask. K18 is only good if you have color treated hair which reverses hair damage caused by color or bleaching. So you definitely need to get this if you want silky smooth balayage/golden locks.

Hair Serum;

Loreal Kerastase Serum & Bumble and Bumble invisible oil.

I have been using Loreal kerastase products way before people knew about it in Pakistan. I absolutely love their hair serums and how amazing and heavenly they smell. So this is my all time favourite brand. Recently I went to Sephora, Glendale, and they recommended me to try this amazing product from Bumble and Bumble. It helps giving heat protection when styling your hair. I absolutely love styling my hair all the time, so this was a must have. It protects your hair from irons, curling rods, blowdries and even the harsh sunlight. It is a bit pricey but completely worth it. Both these products help in eliminating the frizz as well. Would definitely recommend them. Again I use these one at a time, they aren’t supposed to be used together.

The most important part is to invest on a good microfibre towel for your hair. It’s super soft and safer for your strands. I would never advice you to use the regular towel on your hair. You can get a good microfibre towel from anywhere, I got mine from Zonano’s.
