Yummiest Lush Conditioner: Lush American Cream
Posted by roanne in Beauty Reviews, Hair Care on June 18, 2008
I’m a sucker for sweet and yummy scented products. I’ve been a Lush fan since it’s been launched in the Philippines (about 2-3 years ago), and I’ve been buying their products every now and then.
One of my Lush favorites is Lush American Cream conditioner. It’s kinda hard to find a decent conditioner that has a long-lasting scent which stays on my locks all day long. This one proves it!
The sweet vanilla scent lingers all day long, unlike other conditioners that fade after shower. Function-wise, I think this one’s best for normal-oily hair since it hardly gives enough justice to dry hair. I had my hair treated (rebonded) twice so my tresses are somewhat dry. I think American Cream‘s formulation isn’t enough to give my hair the softness and sleekness it deserves. When it comes to having a softer and more manageable hair, I think Retread works better albeit I’m not a fan of its scent. 
Here’s what Lush says about American Cream:
Sweet milkshake inspiration makes out-of-condition hair soft and shiny
American Cream is a conditioner like no other. With honey and vanilla to soften and fresh strawberries and oranges to add shine, it takes on the toughest tangles and roughest frizz, all the while smelling like a sweet honey milkshake. you’ll catch a whiff every time you turn your head and wonder where that 1950s diner is.
TIGI Wishlist
I’m not much into hair products, but my hair is behaving badly recently. Though I’m some kinda satisfied the way Kerastase Oleo Relax works on my locks, applying this gunk of stuff is too time-consuming (consider leaving it for like 30 minutes prior to emulsifying and washing it off).
That’s why, I’d love to seek the help of TIGI in the meantime. I plan of having my hair rebonded soon, but I’m still amid saving up for one big splurge. BTW, TIGI is a well-renowned brand of hair products in a super funky and odd packaging. I wanna give these leave in/on products a try in the future. So, here goes my TIGI wish list: Read the rest of this entry »
My hair’s gotta love Kerastase Nutritive Oleo Relax Hair Mask
During my buhaghag (frizzy hair) days, I opt to use a hair styling product or anti-frizz lotion to calm my locks. But, sometimes, I don’t have ample of time to reapply every now and then. So, thanks to Sophie for being such an influence, I decided to get Kerastase Oleo Relax Hair Mask.
Unlike shampoo and conditioner, hair mask are usually applied sparingly because of its superb potency that using it every day may weigh the hair down. Hence, I don’t also have the time to apply it regularly, so a weekly quick fix for me will do, particularly on special occasions. 
Sometimes, applying conditioner doesn’t do most of the trick. I got my hair rebonded two years ago and swore not to do it again because of the hefty price tag that lies on my super long hair. I’m still torn whether to get a haircut and a rebond. Well, amidst pondering, using Kerastase Oleo Relax Hair Mask makes me change my mind not to go for a crop.
There are times when my hair’s so frizzy, tangled and unkempt that I’m having a hard time combing it back into super sleek straight. But, whenever I use the hair mask, it magically transforms my coarse, stressed hair into its “relax” state. My hair becomes so soft and not prone to tangling anymore. Plus, the frizzes are dramatically minimized. The best part is, my hair’s back into its sleek straight and lustrous shape sans dryness. It’s like a do-it-yourself hair spa.
