HELP DRY HAIR ORGANICALLY: Royal Formula Argan Oil Hair Mask

October 29, 2017 · 7 Comments

We’ve long said goodbye to summer, but the sun, saltwater sea waves, and breezy wind stay with us. Not metaphorically, but literary by how they dry and damage the hair, especially delicate curly hair. If you have any texture or curl to your hair, summer can really do a number on you, causing unruly frizz and brittle, dryness to your locks, and a loss of curl manageability. Yearning for sleek, shiny smooth Veronica Lake hairstyles to go with your my autumn and fall wardrobe? Then it’s time for a hair intervention. We tried Royal Formula Deep Conditioning Argan Oil Hair Mask, an organic formula of luxe ingredients that smoothes the frizzies, make hair feel thicker, strong, soft, shiny and manageable again.

WHAT IS ALL THE FUSS ABOUT ARGAN OIL?

Argan Oil is very popular for topical skin care, but how do you use it to revitalize hair? Argan Oils’ claim to fame is promoting hair strength and hair growth, which means application directly at the scalp level and massaging it in well. The problem is straight Argan Oil is difficult to wash off, and it can suffocate the scalp, trapping oils and dry skin, which causes more dry hair problems. Argan Oil also works on the hair body itself, by coating the hair shaft, which is a boost for curly hair that has been damaged and is extra porous. The result is it adds a glossy, natural shine and gives a smoother appearance to split ends and lifeless hair. While Argan Oil is highly effective, it works best when paired with other key ingredients, such as within a hair mask.

Argan Oil works best when combined with other ingredients in a hair mask like the Royal Formula Argan Oil Hair Mask

WHAT KIND OF HAIR CAN ROYAL FORMULA ARGAN OIL HAIR MASK HELP?

All hair types can benefit from the shiny imparting restoration of this hair mask, especially hair that is dry, damaged, Color-Treated, Bleached or chemically processed. If you use hot styling tools, Argan Oil can do wonders for the hair.Â Not only will hair be more manageable and sleek after conditioning, but the Argan Oil helps the hair withstand the heat of a flat iron. Hot tools dry out the hair and rough up the hair shaft. Royal Formula Argan Oil Hair Mask restores moisture into the hair shaft.

INGREDIENTS:

Made of high quality, organic ingredients, Royal Formula Argan Oil Hair Mask contains:

Pure Argan Oil: coats the hair shaft to condition, nourish, soften and smooth the hair, imparting a healthy shine. This formulation uses the Highest Quality Cosmetic Grade Pure Argan Oil.
Almond Oil contains Omega-3 fatty acids, phospholipids, vitamin E, and magnesium. It nourishes and strengthens damaged hair, making it silky and shiny again. It also reduces hair loss and makes hair more elastic. Almond Oil is also a carrier oil, meaning it helps other oils and ingredients penetrate and absorb. Almond Oil is excellent for brittle hair, damaged hair, dry and over processed hair.
Hydrolyzed Silk: works for stressed, depleted hair by reducing hair breakage by building protein bonds in the hair to make it strong and shiny again. It is “Hydrolyzed”, or broken down in water, from pure silk fibers into silk amino acids which are small enough to penetrate the hair follicle and scalp.
Pro-Vitamin B-5 or Pantothenic acid helps hair grow and improves the appearance, volume, and elasticity of hair.

What it does NOT contain: No sodium, parabens or sulfates.

Royal Formula Argan Oil Hair Mask is a thick luxe formulation that contains high-quality natural ingredients to restore hair inside and out

MY RESULTS:

My hair is about mid-back length, a bit past my bra strap. It is naturally dry and I frequently style with hairdryer and hot rollers, so it requires regular conditioning to stay in shape. Lately, my ends are looking dry, thinner and straggly. It also doesn’t have much movement, it just sort of sits there, somewhat lifeless. So it is time for a bigger trim if I can’t get my hair conditioned back into shape. Recently I have been doing blowouts, and it has taken a toll on my hair as it is more hot styling tool use than I usually tend to use.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS:

Royal Formula Argan Oil Hair Mask is creamy and thick with a very luxe feel. The scent is pleasant and clean. It rinses out easily. I could feel my hair felt stronger even in the shower during my final rinse.

TO USE: Emulsify the conditioner in your hand and apply it to the scalp and hair length. Comb it through with a wide tooth comb.

Royal Formula is a thick, creamy formula that is not greasy. A dollop covered my mid-back length hair

FIRST USE

After one five minute treatment, my hair has less frizz, feels stronger and thicker and was easier to style. My curls no longer felt “crunchy”. I am very pleased with how it “plumped up” my fragile hair ends look and the appearance of split ends is minimized, as my hair appears less porous on the whole.

Wind in my hair on an autumnal afternoon, but my curls stayed frizz free and so soft all day after one Royal Formula Argan Oil Hair Mask treatment

It conditions hair without leaving a residue, which I like.

SECOND USE

I did a second treatment a few days later, where I left the hair mask conditioner in for about an hour and the second time my hair gained back movement and swing, even after blow drying and hot roller styling, it looked and felt so healthy and strong. It doesn’t take much product to coat and treat the hair.

I plan on using it about once a week and after coloring my hair or after heavy hot styling tool use to keep my hair looking healthy and feeling so soft and touchable. It can be used up to three times a week. While it does a very good job in five minutes, I like using it as a leave-in mask for about an hour for intensive conditioning.

Royal Formula Argan Oil Hair Mask restores vibrancy, bounce, and shine

CONCLUSION

Royal Formula Argan Oil Hair Mask is a luxe formulation of vital hair replenishing ingredients, this hair mask is ideal for hair that needs to recover from over-processing, coloring, hot styling tools, or too much summer sun. While I am still doing a hair trim, it will be more of a dusting than cutting off a few inches. Yay, Royal Formula Argan Oil Hair Mask! I am very pleased to be able to keep as much hair length because the mask brought my hair back to life. I like the organic formula that contains a cosmetic grade Argan combined with Almond Oil, B5, and Silk Proteins to make my hair look so much healthier and feel so very soft.

Luxe Hair Conditioning: Allurials Fragrance-Free Conditioner

May 14, 2017 · Leave a Comment

There are many luxe hair conditioners that make hair soft, shiny and strong but are naturally or artificially fragrant. Unfortunately, there are few unscented conditioners that are also effective, especially for colored hair. If you need fragrance-free hair care, options are limited. We love Allurials Fragrance Free Conditioner, an unscented conditioner containing the quality of natural ingredients found in high-end conditioners including Jojoba, Coconut Oil, Avocado, Argan Oil, Aloe Vera and other natural hair nourishing goodness.

Allurials Fragrance-Free Hair Conditioner contains a rich cocktail of organic, natural superfood ingredients for hair and scalp

WHY THE NEED FOR UNSCENTED HAIR CARE

The scent of your conditioner lingers on hair, even subtly, after use. This is wonderful if you like the scent, but for those with allergies, or a preference for only using their own perfumed scent, or for whatever reason you or a partner needs your hair to remain fragrance-free, hair care options become limited. Many of the luxe hair conditioners that are highly effective have moderate to heavy scent due to added fragrance or they contain ingredients that have a strong natural aroma.Â And, some men just want quality hair conditioners without a perfumed scent.

UNSCENTED OPTIONS

It becomes difficult to find quality unscented hair care. While there are some no or low scent hair care products lines amongst drug store brands, many find the only real feature of these products is that they are unscented, they generally are not very hydrating. And a lower price point, they rarely have a meaningful quantity of quality moisturizing ingredients. Even at a higher price point, including amongst brands that are known to be allergy friendly, there are limited options within their fragrance-free haircare.

ALLURIALS FRAGRANCE-FREE HAIR CONDITIONER

Allurials is indeed unscented. Not just devoid of added fragrance, but my fussy nose finds no detectable scent. Suitable for men and women, it is hydrating to hair and scalp with some amazing ingredients

INGREDIENTS

Several Superfoods can be seen in the list of organic and natural ingredients in Allurials Fragrance-Free Hair Conditioner, providing benefit to both scalp and the hair.

Full of organic and natural ingredients like Coconut Oil and Aloe Vera to feed the hair and scalp

Silk Peptides and Pea Peptides aid the structure of the hair. Pea Peptides minimize UV damage to the scalp. Pea Peptides contain Lysine, important for hair growth promotion at the follicular level and sebum production regulation, which decreases with age. Pea Peptides absorb easily.
Argan oil when massaged into the scalp aids in stimulating the hair follicles for stimulated hair growth.
Jojoba oil is an emollient, made of 98% monounsaturated fats so it can penetrate the hair follicle. It fills in the cracks and damage to bare spots on the hair shaft, especially on chemically-treated or color-treated hair. Jojoba has a very similar structure to sebum, replacing the natural oils the scalp needs to stay healthy. Jojoba gives elasticity and softness to hair. Jojoba is also a carrier oil, increasing the efficacy of other active ingredients.
Avocado oil decreases dryness and improves texture
Coconut oil is extremely popular in hair care, and for good reason. It helps hair retain protein and moisture. Protein loss is what makes hair look damaged. Coconut Oil within a conditioner is easier to wash out than straight Coconut Oil application.
Flaxseed Oil is high in Omega-3s, Flaxseed is a superfood for hair. It helps reduce hair loss.
Kernel Oil is a deep hair conditioner that is also beneficial for the scalp and is packed with nourishing vitamins for hair.
Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice feeds hair with essential nutrients, it also makes hair smooth, soft and shiny. Aloe Vera has a type of enzyme that repairs dead skin cells on the scalp. A healthy scalp means optimal hair growth.
Linseed Oil is helpful for hair damaged by environmental factors and styling tools. High in Omega 3s, Linseed helps hair when massaged into the roots of the hair.

Contains natural ingredients such as Aloe Vera, Coconut Oil and Avocado

FIRST IMPRESSIONS

This is a very thick, creamy conditioner, almost a concentrated consistency like a thick moisturizer but not as thick as a buttercream.

I was excited to see many of the ingredients contained within this conditioner, as they have been successful on my hair when used in DIY hair mask tutorials, such as Coconut Oil. But when used directly on the hair, many of these ingredients are often difficult to rinse out because they are so emollient and oily. However, within this conditioner, I found them to rinse cleanly.

Allurials Fragrance-Free Hair Conditioner contains rich organic ingredients like Coconut Oil, Aloe and Avocado but it still rinses away clean with no residue

APPLICATION AND USE

It required less Allurials conditioner to coat my hair than I tend to use with some other brands. And it soaked in quickly.

A dollop of Allurials is all that is needed

TIP: Rub it between wet palms to fully emulsify it, like you would for a good, thick facial moisturizer like Creme de la Mer.

Rub the creamy conditioner between your fingers before applying to hair

Then I coated my hair and even my scalp and massaged it into my hair so it could absorb. It made for a good scalp massage. It did not feel as slippery or gooey as conditioners typically feel while in the hair, it felt more like a hair styling cream. It also seemed to sink into my hair instead of staying on the surface.

There really is no scent. Even lots of hypoallergenic brands have a scent, albeit light and non-irritating. I smelled nothing.

Since it was not a slippery coating sitting on the surface of my hair, it was difficult to assess when I considered the conditioner washed out of my hair when rinsing. Because of this, I took a bit longer to rinse out than some conditioners, but it was still much less time to rinse out than when I use any of these natural items directly on my hair, such as washing out Coconut Oil or an Avacado hair mask. It did wash out completely and cleanly however without leaving a residue.

VERDICT:

My hair felt strong and hydrated, even my dry ends felt smoother. My scalp felt good and my hair looked shiny and was soft after use.

Because it is not scented, I can even use Allurials Fragrance-Free Conditioner in my hair overnight and wash it out in the morning without getting signs of fragrance irritation such as puffy eyes or a sniffly nose. It does not stain my pillowcase. Â This makes it also useful as a pre-poo hair treatment and it is creamy enough to stay put as a deep conditioning hair mask if it is combed into hair while exercising or watching a movie.

Suitable for both men and women who want a luxe moisturizing conditioner with no fragrance or scent, Allurials Fragrance-Free Conditioner provides superfood benefits to the hair and scalp for healthier hair.
