Melvita's Capiforce Hair Mask Review

Recently, I have been testing French organic beauty brand, Melvita's, Capiforce Hair Mask on the thick, dry hair that I happen to have.  This cream formula has honey, Shea, Sea Beet, sunflower oil, rich starch, aloe vera, honey, and coco and para oils for returning moisture to hard, brittle hair and providing gloss.

According to the directions, you should use this mask once a week.  I followed the instructions after washing my hair and allowed the product to remain on my head for ten minutes as recommended.  You could leave it on for as little as  five minutes, but I like to give conditioners extra time to fully soak in before finally rinsing.

My hair when I finished was somewhat softer than before I started and had a bit of added shine.  However, I wanted to see how this mask would work when leaving it on as I often like to do instead of rinsing it out. 
Therefore, the next time I tried this product I followed a hunch and left it on.  I didn't douse my hair with the product either.  I applied about a small amount (approximately the size of a nickel coin) and then finished my normal blow-drying and styling.

This leave-in method differently delivered better results for me.  My hair was much softer and more shiny than the first time rinsing it out!  Do visit Melvita and check this product out or any of the fine line.

Melvita's Capiforce Split Ends Serum Review

We put our hair through the ringer every day without realizing the daily damage we do to it.  In our hurried attempts to get out of the house with hair styled as we like, that high-wattage blow dryer, curling or flat iron can be betraying us.  While we twist, curl, or straighten, we often fry those fragile strands until our hair revolts with dryness like hay and weakness from split ends.  If this sounds like the normal torture that you also inflict on your own head, then you need to hear about Melvita, the ECOCERT-organic skin and hair care experts and leading French Beauty brand, and their Capiforce Split Ends Serum that I have been testing.

This serum is a lightweight formula that has can help revitalize with smoothing olive, Argan,  jojoba and sunflower oils, apricot and sea beet to seal split ends and moisturize while it returns strength to suffering hair. 

You can use this corrective treatment on damp or dry hair as needed.  I found that a drop applied to my damp ends after daily shampooing and another drop through the rest of my hair was enough to soon notice a difference.  My hair had lots more shine, manageability with a great improvement in trading that crispy feel for one of softness. 

Depending on the length and severity of your problem, the amount of Capiforce Split Ends Serum will vary from person to person.  You need to test the amount that works best for you.  On the same note, I must admit this hair serum is a fantastic fix to get your undamaged hair back.

Now that I have my hair in a far superior state than I started, I now am using this serum on a semiweekly basis for maintenance because it still looks just as nice and more treatments would be overkill!  Nonetheless, I will be keeping more of this on hand once I finish with this bottle because it is a beautiful and quick hair fix, which I recommend to anyone plagued by the same problem.

Think of all the abuse our hair takes from chemical processing to excessive heat from our styling tools.  As a result of trying to beautify, we often fry our hair into a mass of brittle crisps unless we have forethought and protect those vulnerable strands first.  One such way is with Shielo Hair Care's Antioxidant Leave in Protectant.

This certified organic spray with a host of pro-vitamins, proteins and amino acids penetrate deeply for a conditioning effect from shea butter as well as that important heat protection resulting from damaging styling tools and sun exposure, restoring shine and eliminating frizz.  White tea and a wheat crosspolymer in the formula help to safeguard color as well.

All you do is mist your freshly washed hair and then blow dry and do your styling routine as usual.  What I found was this product did increase shine and manageability.

I did really like this Shielo's Antioxidant Leave in Protectant and suggest looking into this product for yourself.
