TAG: Repurchased Products

Hello girlies!

I'm running behind with my blog posts, and the reason behind this is: I'm sick!

I caught this nasty flu virus, had a pretty bad muscle pain and high fever, so for a few days I couldn't even open my computer...I simply didn't have the strength to do anything!

My blood pressure was so low, that I passed out three times!

I couldn't even eat, I just had to make sure to stay hydrated, to avoid going to the hospital!

Now things are slowly getting back to normal, I'm still very weak, but I feel I'm on my way to a recovery!

All this happened exactly now, when I'm on my vacations from work!

The perfect timing, I feel like I won the jackpot (finally, my well deserved days off work, and the very first thing I do: I fall to bed, sick! Ughhh) We're off to a bad start here...

The weather has also been very disappointing, rainy, cloudy & chilly, more autumn than spring time appropriate, and i just don't know what else to add on that subject! 

So the best thing is to just start with my today's post topic, which is:

"My Repurchased Beauty Products"

I saw this fun TAG video on youtube and decided to film it myself, as there are quite a few products that I keep repurchasing throughout the years, that I stay loyal too!

There are even more products that I repurchase than the ones that I showed you in my video, but when I was filming my video, I only showed you what I had in my collection (which means, the products I haven't shown you are waiting on their turn to be repurchased!)

I uploaded my beauty video on my MissFashionKitty channel, as a little experiment, because in the future I'd like to concentrate more on this channel and start uploading all my beauty & fashion videos there!

My "main" channel, eipysgudps, has got such a stupid, not easy to remember, not easy to pronounce, username, that unfortunately can't be changed...

I've been thinking for a long while now, that it's time for me to concentrate on my MissFashionKitty channel and move there from now on...

I'll keep you informed about any changes that I make!

Rest assure, I won't be closing down my eipysgudps channel, or deleting the videos that I have uploaded there over the past couple of years that I'm doing youtube...I have over 300 videos there now, so to move them all, or delete them all..would be simply insane!

But I'm up for a fresh new start!!! ;)

How can you help me?

If you'd like to, you can go to my MissFashionKitty channel, and show your support by subscribing to it (if you haven't yet!)

This would mean so much to me and I would really appreciate it!

Anyway, back to my today's beauty topic, you can check out my Repurchased Products TAG video here:

Tips for Healthy Hair: Moroccanoil Review & Linseed Oil Treatment

Hello my beauties!

I hope you all had a lovely weekend!

I'm starting off this week with a blog post dedicated to hair care & of course, I also have a video on this topic prepared for you :)

So just click on the play button bellow to watch it! 

How to get a long, shiny & healthy hair?

How to grow out your hair long, mantaining it healthy?

I really like & recommend these two products:

• Moroccanoil
• Linseed Oil

I got my Moroccanoil when I was participating at the COSMOPROF event in Blogona, Italy, two years ago, as a journalist and blogger, interviewing the important people from the beauty industry.

Among all the people/companies I interviewed, there was also a creative director of Moroccanoil company, who introduced me to the brand and shared with me little secrets & haircare related tips!

Interviewing the creative director of Moroccanoil company

I worked as a journalist for ProvideoService

 Moroccanoil is a great product for healthy, smooth and striking shiny hair!

I use it as a finishing touch, when I'm done with blowdrying and straightening my hair.

I apply it on the tips of my hair and then comb in through.

It has this non-oily formula so it won't make your hair greasy and you can use it as a styling product without any fear.

Learn more about Moroccanoil, the prices & the products, HERE!

Celebrities such as Madonna and J. Lopez are loving this brand too! ;)

& now, let me tell you a little bit about the miraculous treatment that I do religiously every week, in order to mantain my hair healthy and just beautiful looking!

I'm talking about the Linseed Oil!

I'm using the 100% pure linseed oil from the italian brand "I Provenzali".

"I Provenzali" are eco-friendly brand, they do think about the environment, they recycle and don't test on animals!

Their products are very known in Italy and they're also easy to get: I usually buy my Linseed oil at my local supermarket!

The price of this product isn't  high, we're talking about cca 7 € for a 100ml of the product!

(This usually last me a few months!)

Yes, the good news is they do have a website & you can also buy their products on-line!

The link is HERE! CLICK HERE!

This product wasn't sent to me for free and I'm not in any way affiliated with the company!

It's just the product that I'm using since I moved here to Italy (we're talking about four years now!) and I've noticed it has a great results in my hair care!

You don't have to use the same brand as I use, just make sure that you get a 100% pure linseed oil, I'm sure a lot of companies produce it!

You can also check your local herbalist stores :)

However, I'm speaking very high of the "I Provenzali" brand because it stands for the things I have close to my heart myself (being eco- friendly, environment friendly, they also sostain WWF Italia's projects!)

How I use this product?

As a hair mask, as a pre-shampooing treatment.

I soak my hair into this oil, I apply it very generously on my hair, then massage my scalp and comb my hair to distribute the oil well.

I put my hair in a high bun and leave it like this for cca 30min. to even more than 1 hour (depending on how much time I have on my hands!)

Then I proceed with shampooing my hair & conditioning it, blowdrying it, styling it etc.

& here are the results! ;)

How do you take care of your hair?

Do you have any product to recommend me to try, something that you just love & can't live without?

Kiss from Italy xx

Ciao, ciao!
