Alberto Balsam Blends Colour Bright Detangler + UV Filter

Hi there! Today’s post is about this Alberto Balsam Blends Colour Bright Detangler + UV Filter. Since Alberto Balsam’s Colour Bright products are online exclusives, I was happy to pick up this detangler for £1 at Poundworld.

This product promises to provide UV-protection for coloured hair. It also claims to detangle hair with ease and to refresh hair between washes. The description further states that this product nourishes hair to make it feel soft and to make it look shiny.

This detangler is easy to use. Just give it a good shake (to blend the 2 phases) and spray away. Then detangle your hair with your hands or simply brush your hair. Since this product works on wet and dry hair, you can use it anytime you want.

Alright, how’s the product? Sadly, it’s not for me.

The Jericho Rose & Orange scent is way too strong for my liking. Since I wear my hair down, I can smell it all day. This isn’t what I want! However, if you don’t wash your hair very frequently, and you’re worried that your hair might smell funky, you should give this product a try!

What else? This product detangles my hair well and it makes my hair feel super soft (pretty much like baby hair). Whilst I don’t like overly soft hair, I would recommend this product to anyone who’s looking for a leave-in detangling or conditioning spray that helps tame dry or unruly hair.

Alberto Balsam Blends Colour Bright Detangler + UV Filter is available as 150ml. I paid £1, but I’ve seen this product for as much as £4. As always, the price you pay for a product depends on where you shop. 🙂

Haul! New Products From Boots, Montagne Jeunesse, TK Maxx, L’Oréal, Sukin, Una Brennan, Alberto Balsam & My Little Pony

Hi there! Today’s post is about the new products I bought in July. Here they are:

Boots Ingredients sheet masks are £2.50 each. But Boots ran a 4 for £3 promotion (Online only!), so I had to buy 4. I would have been stupid not to take advantage of the offer! I opted for 2 Luminous Youth masks (had them before, loved them), 1 Super Hyaluronic mask, and 1 Cleansing & Purifying mask.

I thought Montagne Jeunesse did masks (face, hair and foot masks) only. So I was surprised to find 2 body moisturisers at my local Poundworld store. I got a Buriti Fruit Body Smoothie and a Goji Berry Body Smoothie. £1 each.

I was happy to pick up a L’Oréal Elvive Smooth & Polish Thermo Detangling Spray for £1 (Poundland). And I got myself an Ekél Natural Clean Peeling Gel with Grape (£4.99, TK Maxx) and a Skinfood Mud Masque (£4.99, TK Maxx).

Two more Sukin products moved in with me! Sukin’s Clarifying Facial Tonic was £4.99 and Sukin’s Anti-Pollution Facial Masque was £5.99. The OM SHE Aromatherapy Skin Lift Hydrating Face Serum was £4.99. These 3 products came from TK Maxx.

And these are the last 3 products: Super Facialist By Una Brennan Pore Purifying Clay Mask (£4.99, TK Maxx), Alberto Balsam Colour Bright Detangler + UV Filter and My Little Pony Leave-In Hair Detangler. The 2 detangling sprays came from Poundworld, and they were £1 each.

This is what I bought in July. Lots of masks, I know! I’ll try to review all these products asap. Any comments? Feel free to get in touch. And thanks for reading! 🙂
