Proclaim Glossing Polish With Color and Heat Protection
Heat styling is every girls friend, which does not come without damage. While there is no heat protectant product that can help us avoid the entire hair damage done by styling tools, but there are definitely the ones who can lessen the heat damage. There are a lots of products out there which themselves carry so many chemicals which i think can increase the damage to hair, leave the thought of hair protection. The best ingredient to form a protective layer against heat are silicones, when we apply heat its the silicone that gets the heat and hair is protected to a large extent. There's a flip side to silicones that it forms a build up on our hair. Though it can be removed by regularly clarifying hair.
This heat protectant from proclaim has 4 types of silicones in first 5 ingredients ( that forms major portion the product ) with 3 other nourishing ingredients. Ingredients list of majority of heat protectant products are filled with chemicals with little portion of heat protection ingredients. So what better than having product with minimal ingredient list and that too which are functional and nourishing.
When used on hair this glossing polish makes hair so shiny and healthy looking. I had a fear of it weighing my hair down. That does not happen with this. My hair feels so soft when I use this. No wonder it has got so many people raving about this product all over the internet.

Beyond The Zone Shock Therapy Extreme Clean Clarifying Treatment
This is a pro at removing any kind of build up from hair. Silicones that forms the worst hair build up is just completely washed off, and leaving hair extremely clean, shiny and manageable after using it.
My hair looks and feels light & clean after using it. As it comes in powder form, you need to add water to activate it. It lathers up amazingly. Depending on how much hair you have, you can use as little or as much as you like. I conditioned, dried and straightened my hair after cleaning. I found that my hair felt smoother, took products applied and kept my styles well, during the week. No offensive smell. I will definitely continue to use it. Where most clarifying shampoos strip the hair so dry and are filled with unwanted ingredients, this one is a good find.

Very few of the natural ingredients mascaras wears that good as this one does. This is pretty, and not allergenic. It's also gluten-free. Ever since i have found that commercial brand mascaras mostly has Formaldehyde releaser as one of their ingredients or other very harmful ingredients. For a product to be used near eyes for me that would be a big no no. That was a heart breaking moment for me. Since my hunt for natural mascaras begin. After trying a few organic brands i keep coming to this one as it was best amongst them. it made my lashes look full and separated, without any clumping. It has an earthy smell to it. This mascara is best for daily use.
