Review: Nexxus Youth Renewal Rejuvenating Hair Care



Nexxus Youth Renwal Hair Care

Nexxus has just created a new line of products, specifically formulated for aging hair...Genius!!!  Youth Renewal Rejuvenating targets what they refer to as the 8 Visible Signs of Aging Hair: volume loss, breakage, less shine, roughness, dryness, brittleness, unruliness and loss of color vibrancy.  I would say I'm 5 for 8.  Until they pointed it out, it honestly, just kind of crept up on me.

I happened to see Youth Renewal at CVS last weekend and made a note to touch base with my friends at Kaplow P.R. who represent Nexxus to learn more. With my beauty stars in full alignment, they reached out on Monday morning and asked me if I would like to sample Youth Renwal, (as well as their other new launch Hydra-Light.)

Yes please!

I washed and dried my hair tonight using 3 Youth Renewal Rejuvenating ProductsShampoo, Conditioner and Elixir, following directions to the letter...

OMG Girls!  Whose hair is this???  Shiny, rich, lush, strong chocolaty, bouncy and not a lick of frizz.  I could have sworn my hair dried in half the time,as  well.
 Did Youth Renwal meet my expectations?  Nope....it blew them away.

What is in there??? What they refer to as their Vita-8 Complex: Omega 3, Keratin, Essence of Pearl, Argan Oil, CoQ10, Wheat Protein Vitamin E and Benzephenone 4.  OK, they lost me on the last one, but everything else sounds like food for my hair.

I am so excited!

One product that I did not receive is the Youth Renewal Rejuvenating Blow Dry Spray, which adds additional volume and I'm confident it will be a fabulous adjunct to the rest of the line.

I did get the Youth Renewal Rejuvenating Dry Shampoo, which their expert stylists recommend using to extend time between washings to protect your color.  That makes perfect sense to me.

So Darlings, consider this review a rave and run out and treat yourself toNexxus Youth Renewal stat. I didn't know what I was missing, but now you do...

Taking it all off: Yet again Lierac Eye Makeup Remover $24 Ever since I fell in love with Benefit's They're Real Mascara I have loved how my lashes look every day. I have also struggles mightily with how to remove it--every day. Just a few weeks back, I thought I found a nice solution, with L'Oreal's Clean Artiste Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover. It was effective and well priced at 6.99, but not 3 weeks later, I'm down to my last drop...effective, yes. Cost effective, not so much. The very best eye makeup remover that I have ever used, was sent to me to sample back in September of 2010 (http://divadebbi.blogspot.com/2010/09/wishful-thinking.html#more). Here is how I described it: Lierac Paris Diopti Demaq is a crystal clear gel, that gently removes makeup and best of all, does not leave a dreaded oily film on and in my eyeballs. In addition, clinical studies have shown that natural ingredients like Rose and Cornflower Water, Linden and Mallow Extractions, Keratin and Vitamin B5, "calms, softens, hydrates and most importantly, in my book, boosts growth! It is also paraben and alcohol-free. I hadn't forgotten it, especially since it lasted for over 8 months, but I like my beauty products readily available aka sans shipping fees. Lierac Paris was modestly stocked at my local CVS, but they never included Dipoti Demaq in their offerings. Gratefully, this has now changed. Inadvertently, I picked up the formula for "Sensitive Eyes", which of course I discovered at home. I kept my receipt, just in case it was too gentle to tackle my needs. Fortunately, there will be no boomerang trip for me. Diopti Demaq for Sensitive Eyes worked like a charm and was every bit at as good as the original formula I used. I guarantee, this will be the last eye makeup remover I will ever post again, again. Diva's honor. xox, DD
