MEOWLINA: March 2016

How many of you have been suffering from dry, frizzy, and tangled hair? Well if you are, you're not alone in this!! Many of us (including me!!!) probably has this problem due to frequent dying of hair, bleaching, usage of hair tools..... etc.

Personally, I've only bleached my hair once, but only on the bottom half of my hair. However, I dye my hair frequently every month and I use heating tools on my hair almost everyday. My hair condition is pretty dry, especially towards the bottom part or the ends of my hair. Every time someone touches my hair, all I get from them was: "eh your hair damn dry leh!" :'(

One more thing which I've heard a lot is that it is actually healthier and better for our hair if we rotate our shampoos! Meaning, we shouldn't be using the same brand of shampoo too often. I've actually googled on this particular topic, and yes guys I think it's true!! Believe it or not, I've been using the same brand of shampoo (Brand X) for more than 10 years. I'm never the kind to experiment with new shampoo products because my family & I are too used to heading down to the store and pick up (Brand X) whenever we run out of shampoo and conditioner.

When Moist Diane offered to send me their products, I thought to myself, maybe this is the chance for me to try a different shampoo (finally). Well, because they understood that my hair condition is dry, they sent me their products from the "Moist & Shine" series!

Moist Diane, helps turn your locks shiny, silky and smooth with rare plant oils sourced from all over the world. They deep-cleanse your scalp and hair gently and thoroughly, yet do not strip them of natural oils, which act as a necessary protective layer against environmental aggressors.

Below are some of the benefits that Moist Diane carries:

1. Advanced Deep Repair with Moroccan Argan Oil*

Moist Diane shampoos are infused with age-old wonder ingredient, Moroccan Argan Oil. Known as ‘liquid gold’, it is packed rich in Vitamin E, antioxidants and fatty acids to protect and hydrate the scalp. Unlike other carrier oils, it is much smoother and drier, so you won’t get a greasy after-feel. Rich in vitamin E and essential fatty acids, it helps to protect and hydrate the scalp. Moroccan Argan Oil is absorbed quickly, deep cleanses pores, and provides vital nourishment. It benefits all kinds of hair, but is especially great for colour-treated, dry, frizzy or coarse hair (ahem, my hait). Moist Diane shampoos infused with Moroccan Argan Oil helps to:

- Deeply nourishes hair and tames frizzes
- Prevents unnatural hair loss and stimulate hair growth
- Boosts a healthy hair glow
- Strengthens hair and repairs split ends
- Improves hair elasticity

2. Silicone-Free Formulations*

Commercial shampoos often contain silicone, a type of synthetic plastic which coats and smooths the hair, giving it a nice shine. However, if not wash off thoroughly, it caused build-up in hair follicles leading to hair fall! :o

Different from other shampoos, Moist Diane’s silicone-free formulations prevent hair from clogging to help you achieve healthy voluminous hair!

3. Doubling the repair works for your hair

Another A-lister ingredient in Moist Diane is Baobab Oil. Rich in vitamins A, D, E and F, and omega 3, 6, and 9, it is especially beneficial for hair and scalp. It comes from the Baobab tree, called the Tree of Life because it can live up to 6,000 years.

In addition, other hand-picked botanical oils deeply cleanse away the excess sebum and impurities, provides vital nourishment to promote resilient and manageable hair.

4. Technologies developed exclusively for hair and scalp

A multi-oil haircare brand, Moist Diane delivers hair-repairing technologies to keep your hair healthy and beautiful.

Moist & Shine

This series promises to transform dry and rough hair. With the right emollients, it promotes soft and silky hair. In addition, it contains Apple Fruit Extract to help prolong hair’s life cycle, reducing hair loss.

Smooth Hair Oil

This lightweight hair oil is filled with high concentration of Moroccan Argan Oil to deeply moisturise and repair hair to reduce breakage and splitting, and gives brilliant shine without making hair feel sticky or greasy.

Moist Diane Moroccan Argan Oil and non-silicone formulations are definitely the healthier choices for your scalp and hair!

Before:

A before shot of my hair before I began using the products. Yes, that is my terrible looking bed hair. xD I asked my sister to take this shot for me in the morning right after I woke up hahahaha. Hair condition: pretty dry and frizzy.

Step 1:

Shampoo your hair like how you normally would with this Moist Diane 'Moist & Shine' Moist Shampoo!

Step 2:

Condition your hair with the Moist & Shine Treatment. After shampoo, pump 1-2 times on your hand and apply product evenly onto wet/damp hair and leave it on for awhile before rinsing off thoroughly.

Step 3:

Apply hair oil to your hair after showering for extra smoothness and shiny looking healthy hair! Works with both dry and damp hair. For me, I use it after I blow dry my hair. :b

The Verdict (after usage of 1 week):

I did the same routine whilst in the shower for about a week or so, and I'm not gonna lie, I've actually felt a difference after a week!! Especially on the parts of my hair that has not been bleached before (the top 3/4 of my hair), it feels softer and smoother than before!!!!

Well, as for the bottom 1/4 of my hair (bleached area), up till now it still feels a lil dry, but the condition of it definitely did improve. :')

(After applying the Moist Diane Hair Oil)

Oh yes and the scent of these products are just so good!!!!! I can smell my hair the entire day lmao.

Would I recommend it? Yes!! If you are looking to switch your hair regime, maybe give Moist Diane a shot and try it for yourself. :-) Depending on your current hair condition, they have the following kinds of products to suit different hair problems:

- Moist & Shine

- Volume & Scalp
