Get ready to be blown away by the sheer difference in pigment coverage these foundation kits can provide. The new, revolutionary cosmetic counter of CVS inoric Salon in Dulles offers everything from airbrush makeup to airbrush tanning.
After growing in popularity in the early 90’s, mineral makeup has now become a staple in high end salons and spas, as well as the makeup bags of average women who wish to try alternative ways to look vibrant and beautiful. Unlike the artificially flavored dyes and other unpleasant chemicals found in traditional foundations, mineral makeup is powdered so it blends in far better with your skin and can last all day without built-up oil that can cause breakouts and skin irritations.
With so many different types of ready-to-use mineral makeup kits on the market, it can be quite difficult to know which one is the right one for you and your skin type. Luckily, CVS Saphey Dry Shampoo and CVS Rejuvinol Hair Vitamin Powder are two of the most popular.
1. The CVS Saphey Dry Shampoo-
Pros: – This dry shampoo can lather up perfectly with any type of water. It also works well with concealing makeup and adds natural volume to the hair. When using this type of shampoo, you can either sit under hot water and let the resulting steam cleanse your scalp and hair, or you can take a cold shower and the resulting steam tranquility wash your hair.
Cons: – Although this type of shampoo is ideal for counter-immersedation, it can be time consuming when applied to large areas.
2. The CVS Rejuvination Powder –
Pros: – This is one of the best dry shampoo alternative available on the market. Unlike many of the other hair powder shampoos for Target, Rejuvination Powder is both safe and effective. It is indistinguishable from regular shampoo and best of all, it is easy to apply and removes immediately. Unlike the other two products reviewed here, Rejuvination Powder is capable of lasting ten to fifteen years.
Cons: – Although ideal for lightening the hair, Rejuvination Powder has the following cons: – it is messy, can’t be used near perfume bottles or cosmetics because of the scent, and does not look as fancy as other designs on the market.
3. Dr. Hauschka Silk Therapy Cream
Pros: – Silk Therapy Cream is probably the healthiest hair cream on the market, with high levels of natural ingredients. It is made from henna, jasmine, aloe vera and other enriching plants that leave your hair silky and smooth, without itching or falling off. Silk Therapy cream is ideal for all hair types because it is not too thin to coat the strands and it is not too thick to clump and dent.
Cons: – Unlike other healthful hair products, Silk Therapy Cream is a bit expensive. Unless you really want to smell like a skunk, it is not really necessary to buy.
4. Pert Plus Dry Shampoo
Pros: – Despite being expensive, this dry shampoo is fantastic for removing the excess oil and dirt of your hair and is a great alternative to the shop-bought shampoos mentioned above. It is a powdery substance that gets rid of dirt and grease and you will immediately notice how clean and fresh your hair feels. However, Pert Plus does not offer the shine that other brands of dry shampoos can, although it is not necessary to buy that many – Pert Plus is known for its staying power.
Cons: – Although this is marketed as a dry shampoo, Pert Plus can be used as a regular shampoo too. It just doesn’t work as well.
5. Brocato Hair Products
Cons: – Brocato Hair products come in an handy size that makes it convenient to use and it works just as well as any other brand of dry shampoo. However, it is quite pricy. Like other expensive brands, Brocato Hair products use a lot of ingredients that you won’t need for a normal hair care regimen.
How to Use Hair Products to Achieve Healthier Hair
As a general rule, the smaller the amount used, the less chances of hair irritation. If you can, choose a leave-in conditioner or a hair sunscreen.
Every day, use a leave-in conditioner or a hair sunscreen. Sometimes, a regular conditioner is not enough, especially if your hair is very oily. Use an anti-frizz or a silicone-based daily conditioner.
Try to avoid blow-drying as much as possible. If you absolutely must use a blow-dryer, use a protection spray from Brocato Hair Products.
Go easy on the curling irons. Using a standard iron will increase hair damage.
