Proizvodi za kosu koji su me razočarali

U okviru jednog posta pokazaću vam nekoliko proizvoda za kosu koji se u mom slučaju nisu ni malo proslavili i koji ne zaslužuju da dobiju ceo post samo za sebe. Kosa mi je trenutno suva i prilično oštećena, pa često koristim ulja i proizvode koji se ne ispiraju, za dodatnu negu i lakše rasčešljavanje kose, a naravno i da bi se kosa što manje dalje krzala. Evo nekoliko proizvoda tog tipa, koji za moju kosu nisu ništa posebno učinili.

In this one post I'll show you a couple of hair products which, in my case, were no good and which do not deserve to have an entire post for themselves. My hair is dry and quite brittle, so I often use oils and no-rinse products for extra care and easier combing, and of course to protect my hair from further damage. Here are a few products of this type, that have done nothing special in my case.

1. Seri Argan Oil

Glavni sastojak ovog proizvoda je arganovo ulje, koje treba da obnovi i neguje kosu. Posle duže korišćenja kosa treba da bude sjajnija i mekša. Ništa od navedenog se na mojoj kosi nije desilo. Ona nije obnovljena i jača, a takođe ovo ulje ne pomaže ni pri rasčešljavanju kose, te ne sprečava ni dalje krzanje. Sadrži 50ml i mislim da trenutno više ne može da se kupi i Lilly-ju, a koštalo je oko 1500 dinara.

The main ingredient of this product is argan oil, which should renew and nourish the hair. After prolonged use the hair should be shinier and softer. None of the above happened. It did not renew and make my hair stronger, and it also does not help with combing, so it does not prevent the further damage. It contains 50ml, and I think it cannot be bought in Lilly drugstores at the moment. It cost around 1500 RSD.

2. Avon Advance Techniques Supereme Oils - Duo Treatment Spray

Ovaj Avonov sprej su mnogi hvalili, pa sam rešila da ga i ja probam. Sprej sadrži alkohol, ali i proteine pšenice, ulje semena zelenog čaja, makadamije, semena grožđa, badema i marule. Međutim i pored čak 5 biljnih ulja u svom sastavu, ovaj sprej na mene nije ostavio veliki utisak. Nisam primetila neku posebnu negu kose, a kako ga prskam na vlažnu kosu kako bi je i lakše rasčešljala, razočaralo me je što slabije olakava rasčešljavanje od mnogih proizvoda koje sam koristila. Sadrži 100ml i koštao je ja mislim oko 700 dinara (puna cena).

This Avon spray has been praised by many, so I decided to try it, too. The spray contains alcohol,  but also wheat proteins, green tea seed oil, macadamia oil, grape seed oil, almond and marula oils. However, despite containing 5 natural oils in its composition, this spray didn't leave a big impression on me. I didn't notice any special hair care and since I use it on damp hair to make combing easier, it disappointed me since it doesn't help with combing as much as some other products I've used. It contains 100 ml and it costs I think about 700 RSD (full price).

3. Vitality's Active Repair Solution

Ovaj fluid sadrži tek nekoliko sastojaka od kojih je jedan alkohol, a jedini hranljivi sastojak je pirinčano ulje. Treba da zaštiti kosu od lomljenja i toplote. Nanosila sam ga uglavnom na krajeve. Deluje po malo silikonski. Međutim, zaglađivanje krajeva koje pruža ovaj serum je po meni vrlo slabo, pa je samim tim kosa slabo zaštićena od mehaničkih oštećenja prilikom češljanja i feniranja. Možda i štiti od toplote, ali to ne mogu direktno da procenim. Ono što vidim po meni nije zadovoljavajuće. Sadrži 50ml i košta 1050 dinara (u Cvrletu).

This fluid contains only a few components of which one is alcohol, and the only nourishing component is rice oil. It is supposed to protect your hair from breaking and heat. I mainly use it on hair ends. It feels a bit like silicone. However, it smoothed the ends very badly, and therefore the hair is poorly protected from mechanical damage during combing and styling. Maybe it protects against heat, but it cannot directly estimate. What I can see is, in my opinion,  not satisfactory. It contains 50ml and costs 1050 RSD (in Cvrle).

Kanta Vol. 14

Nakupilo se još praznih proizvoda, a ovaj put sam posebno radosna što sam uspela da potrošim ceo tečni puder. Doduše to mi je omiljeni puder pa mi je žao što je potrošen, a neću da ga opet kupujem dok malo ne istrošim druge koje trenutno imam.

More empty products are here, and this time I am particularly pleased that I was able to spend the entire foundation. Admittedly this is my favorite foundation, so I am sorry that I have spent it, and I'm not planing on buying it again soon, while I still have a lot of other products.

Proizvodi za kosu koje sam potrošila su:
- Revlon Revlonissimo 45 Days Total Color Care 2u1 šampon i balzam - dobro čisti i omekšava kosu a čuva boju i daje blag narandžasti preliv. Svideo mi se prilično. Tuba sadrži 275ml i košta 1490 dinara. Ocena 4/5.
- Batiste Dry Shampoo Tropical - obožavam Batiste. A ovaj miris mi je definitivno omiljen. Šta ću slaba sam na kokos. Odlično odmašćuje kosu. Boca od 200ml košta 566 dinara. Ocena 5/5.
- Seri Argan Oil - nisam do sad isprobavala arganovo ulje za kosu, ovo mi je prvo, ali moram da priznam da iako moje suve krajeve malo hrani i zagladi, nisam zadovoljna učinkom, s obzirom na to koliko je arganovo ulje hvaljeno. Bočica je lepa staklena sa pumpicom i sadrži 50ml a košta ja mislim oko 1500 dinara, ne secam se tačno. Ocena 3/5.
- Top Ten Sunny Hair Repairing After Sun Mask - još jedan proizvod za kosu o kom ne znam šta da mislim. Ne mogu da kažem da mi se čini da je obnovio i nahranio kosu, a pored toga još i ne omekšava i ne zaglađuje. Tako da nema neke vidljive efekte. Pakovanje sadrži 250ml a cene se zaista ne sećam. Ocena 2/5.

Hair products that I have spent are:

- Revlon Revlonissimo 45 Days Total Color Care 2in1 shampoo and conditioner - cleans well and softens the hair, preserves colour and gives hair a mild orange shine. I liked it quite a lot. Tube contains 275ml and costs 1490 RSD. Score 4/5.

- Batiste Dry Shampoo Tropical - I love Batiste. And this scent is definitely my favorite. What can I do, I'm a coconut lover. Great at degreasing hair. Bottle of 200ml costs 566 RSD. Score 5/5.

- Seri Argan Oil - I haven't tried any hair argan oils before, this is my first one, but I have to admit that my dry ends were nourished and smoothed just a bit. I'm not pleased with the effect, in view of the numerous praises that argan oil gets. The bottle is pretty, made of glass with a pump, contains 50ml and costs, I think, around 1500 RSD, I do not remember exactly. Score 3/5.

- Top Ten Sunny Hair Repairing After Sun Mask - another hair product which I do not know what to think of. I cannot say that I think it has renewed and nourished my hair, though it also didn't soften and smooth it out. So there aren't some visible effects. The packaging contains 250ml and I really do not remember the price. Score 2/5.

Od šminke potrošila sam tri proizvoda. Na žalost samo jedan je zaista potrošen, Essence puder mi se potpuno polomio i raspšio po neseseru, a korektor se dosta osušio jer ga imam dugo pa više nije to to.

- Nyx HD Photogenic Concealer - dobar korektor sa laganom formulom i dobro ujednačava i prekriva tamne podočnjake, Pakovanje od 3g košta 539 dinara. Ocena 5/5.

- Essence All About Matt Fixing Compact Powder - jedan od boljih pudera za matiranje koji ionako svi već dugo hvale. Pakovanje od 8g košta oko 400 dinara. Ocena 4/5.

- Vichy Teint Ideal Fluid - savršen lagan puder sa srednjim prekrivanje. Ljubav na prvo nanošenje. Savršena nijansa koja mi je davala zdrav i lep ten. Moraću opet da ga kupim. Bočica od 30ml košta 2303 dinara. Ocena 5/5. 

When it comes to makeup I have spent three products. Unfortunately, only one was actually spent. Essence Powder broke apart completely in my bag, and the concealer has dried up because I bought it a long time ago, so the effect was no longer as good as it used to be.

- Nyx HD Photogenic Concealer - a good concealer with a lightweight formula. Evens out the skin colour well and covers dark circles. Packaging of 3g costs 539 RSD. Score 5/5.

- Essence All About Matt Fixing Compact Powder - one of the best mattifying powders that has been praised a lot for a long time. Packaging of 8g costs around 400 RSD. Score 4/5.

- Vichy Teint Ideal Fluid - perfect lightweight foundation with medium coverage. Love at first application. Also a perfect shade that gave me a healthy and beautiful complexion. I'll have to buy it again. Bottle of 30ml  costs 2303 RSD. Score 5/5.

I za kraj preparativa za lice:

- Vichy Aqualia Thermal Light - odlična krema koja dobro hidrira i lagana je. Mada u toku leta mi je činila kožu brže masnom. Teglica standarno sadrži 50ml i košta 2194 dinara. Ocena 4/5.

- Gerovital Plant noćna krema za lice - solidna noćna krema koja dobro hrani kožu. Formula je malo gušća ali nije masna. Pakovanje sadrži isto 50ml i košta 850 dinara. Ocena 4/5.

- Balea gel za umivanje sa grejpfrutom - baš mi se nije svideo ni miris ni tekstura gela. Mada dobro čisti i ne isušuje. Pakovanj sadrži 150ml a košta oko 300 dinara. Ocena 3/5.

And finally cosmetics for the face:

- Vichy Aqualia Thermal Light - excellent cream that moisturizes well and is lightweight. Although during the summer my skin became greasy faster while I was using it. It has a standard jar containing 50ml and costs 2194 RSD. Score 4/5.

- Gerovital Plant Nourishing Cream - a nice night cream that works well. The formula is a bit thicker but not greasy. The package contains the same 50ml and costs 850 RSD. Score 4/5.

- Balea Face Wash with grapefruit - I did not like the smell and texture of the gel. Although it cleaned well and didn't dry my skin out. Packaging contains 150ml and costs around 300 RSD. Score 3/5.

I to bi bilo sve za ovaj put. Da li ste probali neki od ovih proizvoda i kakvi su bili vaši utisci? Koje arganovo ulje biste mi preporučili da sledeće probam? Ili već neki proizvod da malo sredim suve krajeve.

And that's all for this time. Have you tried any of these products and what were your impressions? Which argan oil would you recommend that I try next? Or some kind of product that will make make ends a little bit less dry.
