L’Oreal Total Repair 5 Shampoo  

Posted by: Foxy Frangipani in ,



Loreal Says:
Daily wear and tear can damage the hair’s surface and weaken the fibre. Hair becomes weak, looking limp and lifeless, losing its shine and silky feel.

L’Oréal Laboratories have developed a Pro-Keratine and Ceramide enriched formula that helps restore 5 visible signs of replenished hair without weighing it down.

L’Oréal Paris Total Repair 5 Shampoo is specially designed to repair damaged hair, cell after cell, without weighing hair down.

5 Problems. 1 Solution. 

INNOVATION PRO-KERATINE + CERAMIDE

L’Oréal Paris Total Repair 5 is our first total repair for damaged hair. The restoring haircare range repairs 5 of the top Canadian hair problems* by reconstituting and restructuring the hair at the cellular level. Its restoring formula with Pro-Keratine and Ceramide fights against: Damage, Thinning, Split-Ends, Brittleness and Dullness.

Pro-Keratine, a combination of 2 amino acids found in keratine, repairs the hair fibre, the hair structure is reinforced and hair regains its strength like new.

Ceramide, a patented compound from L’Oréal Laboratories, replicates hair’s intercellular cement, transforming the hair’s surface to an even and smooth condition.

Proven results:
1) Feels stronger
2) Looks fuller
3) Looks revitalized
4) Has a healthy-looking shine
5) Feels silkier

Nett Wt: 80ml
Scent: Fresh

I got a couple of this shampoo from magazine purchase and exchange programmes. The 80ml size is perfect for gym use. I've since finished my 3rd and last bottle. Ready to review :)

Now, I wash my hair daily in the morning before work. So if I hit the gym later, I will wash my hair again. Previously I was using deep cleansing shampoo and my hair ended up being really dry :S (I cannot NOT wash my hair in the morning - habit!)

This is perfect! It didn't dry out my hair, as a matter of fact, keeps it really soft and silky after each wash. No need for a conditioner (no time anyway, I usually would get really hungry after gym, about 9pm).

I don't know about hair looking fuller. Don't they always look fuller after a fresh wash and a blow dry? Hee...

For me, this lathers really well and easy to rinse off too.
Does not make my scalp itch and smells good!

I might get more of these for gym use, after I finished other samples of course. Why gym use only? I love my Redken more :P

L'Oreal De-maq Expert Cashmere Milk Expert Make-Up Remover

Loreal Says:
L'Oreal Paris Dermo-Expertise; De-maq Expert Cashmere Milk Complete Make-up Remover is ideal for women who find water too harsh on their skin. It achieves maximum cleansing for the face and eyes while restoring skin's moisture levels. 

The soft formula is two times more concentrated in active cleansing and nourishing ingredients than a classic cleansing milk.

Nett Wt: 100ml
Texture: Cream
Scent: Sweet milk
Colour: White
Price: RM10 (I got this at a warehouse sale) I think RP is RM27

I don't quite like this as I feel it leaves behind an oily layer on my skin after rinsing it off. A little too rich for my liking. I prefer the Elixir Concentrate.

In terms of cleansing power, it does an okay job in removing light foundation. However for eye makeup - it tends to blur my vision, hence my dislike for this.

I don't give much thought about using a toner.. depends on my mood really.
If I'm in a rush, I'll just conveniently skip toner and go for serum etc.
But toner does help to get rid of dead cells eh..

Hmm I'm not crazy about this, nor do I dislike this.
Pretty okay is moisturizing my skin. I prefer to use this in a spray bottle rather than cotton pad.

After cleansing, I'll usually spray a generous amount all over my face and neck; then proceed to get partially dressed.

The continue on with eye cream and serum. By then my skin would still be damp and absorption of serum is better.

I also use this to mix powder mask, instead of using plain water. Won't break my bank since this is affordable... it adds more moisture to my skin.

Unfortunately it doesn't tighten pores haha. Nor illuminates :P
Just glad to finish this...

Working on the last week of the year for most ppl is generally annoying.
For me, it has its perks!


1- Came back and found a lil gift on my desk from The Boss. Chocolates.. yummm.



2- Nothing much to do. Just very light follow ups etc.
3- Very peaceful. Not many are around this time.
4- Ample carparks. I park just right in front of my entrance.
5- This is the best - I work half day only, daily. Lol.


So by noon, I'm back home and taking my sweet time slow-cooking some healthy soup for dinner, updating blogs which are long overdue, sipping tea (its Gui Hua tea today), mini "make-overing" my room and watch the world goes by.


Over the past two weeks, I went to a couple of warehouse sales.
Not as huge as the ones in KL, but okay-ish.

Loreal Warehouse Sale
Guess who "officiate" the shopping basket first? Hahaha The Boyfriend!! I was surprised to find the Loreal Men Expert set in the basket. He who used to be a soap and water guy lol is now a vain pot :P Mind you he kinda like this (he got one back in July's warehouse sale) and now this is even cheaper (comes with facial wash too).

 
Some of the stuffs I got are:
- Maybelline Turbo Boost Mascara (Another!? Yeah.. hands itchy) RM15

- Maybelline Eyestudio Palette in Winter Iris RM15

- Loreal Cashmere Milk Makeup Remover (I'm currently using Elixir Concentrate and liking it, so giving Cashmere Milk a try now) Don't remember how much RM10/RM15

- Loreal Derma Genesis Toner RM10. I use toners like theres no tomorrow..
- Garnier Light Dark Spot Corrector RM10

- Loreal White Perfect Zooming Spot Corrector RM20 (?)  Hmm I am recently obsessed in getting rid of a tiny weeny dark spot on my cheekbone..
- Maybelline Angelfit Liquid Foundation RM20 (?)
- Loreal Derma Genesis Set RM60


 The was a small section for Vichy. Only a few items though:
- Liftactiv Pro Night: Detoxifying Anti Wrinkle & Firming Care (6x15ml - RM60)

- Liftactiv Pro: Pro Fibre Anti Wrinkle & Firming Care (2x50ml - RM60)
I've never seen this at Guardian/Watsons before, and was told these are new products. Over the recent weekend I saw these two at Guardian, and yes, labelled "NEW". Priced at RM130 for 50ml.. ooh la la. Thank my itchy hands.

- Another was for slimming (don't know the name coz I didn't buy it)
Its time I start using anti aging creams, eh? *excuses to buy*



There were many other makeup items - tons of mascaras, lipsticks, eye shadows, liners but I skipped.

Too many already *guilty* 

Also Loreal Elseve shampoos, conditioner and masks are really affordable. RM14 for the shampoos and RM10 for the mask! I didn't get any as I prefer Redken Body Full and bynature shampoos (got these from Bangkok); and I use hair mask like super slowwwww.



Metrojaya Warehouse Sale
Pretty good deals I'd say. Average about 50-80% for clothing, lingeries, handbags. Heads everywhere. Oh, random thought - where are all the well endowed women?! Walked past the lingerie section and all that were left are big sizes? *puzzled* Are there really that many small chested girls here? Heee forget abt it eh, just one of my random silly tots.


I skipped all the clothes and handbags coz I'll be heading to Bangkok soon :)
I did make a small damage with Elizabeth Arden though. Took home with me:


- EA Good Morning Skin Serum RM55
- EA Sheer White Restoring Night Cream RM62


I've started using them so I'll do a proper review soon eh.

  

* I forgot where I download those pictures sigh, lemme just do a search..
