Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Shampoo & Conditioner

I've been testing out a new shampoo & conditioner from Garnier Fructis. This opportunity popped up through a BzzAgent campaign. When I first got the invite, I was a little skeptical about this being new since the packaging and all the claims seemed unchanged, but nonetheless it was exciting since I love trying out new products.

Like usual, the BzzKit came in a small box that was sealed by the trademark BzzAgent bee tape. Here's what was included.

~ Official BzzGuide
~ 1 Triple Nutrition Shampoo for Dry, Damaged Hair
~ 1 Triple Nutrition Conditioner for Dry, Damaged Hair

The two bottles were neatly packaged inside a ziplock bag, which I thought was very thoughtful of the Bzz team.

And here's a few facts from the BzzGuide:

~ Works best on dry or damaged hair

~ Nourish hair to the core so it shines from within

~ Forumlated with Fortified Fruit Science - three weightless nutritive fruit oils (olive, avocado, and shea)

~ Packed with ultra-rich and nourishing conditioners that rinse clean - we dare you to find something that treats your dry damaged hair better

Okay, so my hair falls into the dry and damaged category no doubt about it. I used to dye my hair all the time. At one point, I dyed it every other week. Bad I know. Sue me. So after all that chemical mayhem I put my hair through, it's quite unfriendly to me now, so I'm always a sucker for new products that promise to help me make peace with it. I've been using this on and off for the past few weeks.

Why on and off? Well, my scalp has been really, really dry lately which is making me flake too. This shampoo/conditioner combo definitely does not help with that, but it's not like it promised to. When I did use this though, I had mixed feeling about the results. On one hand, it moisturized my hair, smelled fabulous, and made my hair shiny. All Garnier Fructis products smell delicious and this was no exception. On the other, I couldn't keep up my routine of washing my hair every other day. I found my hair to get oilier faster and when my hair gets oily out of my schedule it can get bothersome. I think this has to do with what's in both products and you can tell from the texture. To me it seems the shampoo and conditioner have a lower viscosity than the average shampoo/conditioner and I'm attributing it to the natural fruity oils. This isn't bad by any means, it's just bad for me right now with the stage my hair is at. This would be great for really, REALLY super dry hair. On a side note, I will definitely try this out again when the winter weather arrives to wreck havoc on my hair.

If you'd like to try this out here's a coupon for you. :3c

I'm proud to be a BzzAgent. Not familiar with BzzAgent? BzzAgent is a social marketing company that distributes products to it's members, let's them try it out, and asks them to Bzz about it. Bzz can be anything from face-to-face conversations to discussion through online social media. One of my favorite things about the company (besides trying out goodies) is that they want members to keep their opinions as honest as possible, so negative opinions or experiences are still welcomed. You aren't always going to love new products and it's great that they understand that. Oh yeah, did I mention it's also free to join? Check it out here. To be eligible for campaigns, you must fill out surveys in order to determine if you fit into the demographic, and if you do, they'll email you an invite to the campaigns you fit into.

Philips SatinPerfect Epilator

Back in February I received the Philips SatinPerfect Epilator HP6576/50 through BzzAgent to try out. Epilators were something I had never heard of until I came across a YouTube video. Usually, I'm a razor kind of girl. Sometimes it's time-consuming and troublesome, but it's easy to become so used to doing that you can kinda go on auto-pilot. When I received the invite for this campaign that had a promise of 4 weeks of smoothness, you can bet I jumped on it fast. Epilators are electronic devices that have discs that spin and pull your hairs out from the roots. I kind of think of it like a tweezer on steroids that leaves no time in between pulling hairs.

Here are some pictures of the epilator packaging and all the attachments/extras it came with:

Contents included:

• Epilator Base
• Epilator discs (attached to base in the picture above)
• Shave, trim, and style attachment
• Trimming comb (attacked to shave, trim, an style attachment)
• Optimal performance cap
• Active hairlifter with active massage attachment
•  Cleaning brush 
• Adapter
• Illuminating tweezers with mirror

The night I first tried this out, I did not shower prior to using it like it suggests and even though I was prepared of unfamiliar feelings including pain, I was surprised at how very, very strange it felt. I don't want to say it was super painful or anything, but it had a slight sting to it. I can understand how plucking one hair at a time is easy since there's a little break in between pulling out the hairs, but this just keeps going, plucking out your hairs simultaneously as you drag it across your skin. After finishing my legs, I decided to shower and then continue on my arms and armpits. My arms had the same sting-ish feeling, but it was much easier since I knew what to expect. However, when I tried it on my armpits, oh my, it was pretty bad. I had to stop a few times before finishing and some pores were bleeding (I applied rubbing alcohol to clean them). In the instructions, it instructs you to use the shave, trim and style attachment, but I went ahead and used the epilator discs with the optimal performance cap. I wanted to be baby smooth there too you know? After a few more times of using this product, I had become used to the sensation no matter where I used it. The first experience was probably a little negative since I had never used such a device before nor had I ever waxed. One thing for sure, I wouldn't use the epilating discs on my bikini line. That's just a whole other world of pain I never want to experience.

Would I suggest this to others? Yeah, only if you are willing to put up with unfamiliar/slightly painful sensations. It's not hard to get used to. I'm not trying to scare people away from this product because I do love it, but I know not everyone is going to be willing to put up with getting used to it or maybe are too sensitive for such a method of hair removal.

How long does the smoothness last? For me, I got about 2 and half weeks or so before the stubbly came back. Obviously, it'll vary between women so don't expect the exact same results.

If you're interested in trying it out, use "BUZZEP2O" to get $20 off if you order it through Amazon. (That's a letter O, not a zero)
