Self-care has always been important to me. In this journey, I came across a brand new product, which I not only loved, but it fits with my lifestyle and needs. My hair is textured, and I have been coloring my hair since I was 16 years old. So I am extra careful when it comes to taking care of my hair. Besides trims by my hairstylist, I am very careful in choosing what products I use for my hair. I have been sulfate-free for almost a decade now, and I can tell you what a difference it makes. So if I introduced a product to you, not only will it be sulfate free, but it will also be paraben free, preservative-free and cruelty-free.
Formulate creates personalized/customized shampoo and conditioner, which is made just for you. No gimmicks at all. I have also teamed up with Formulate, to bring an exclusive Giveaway, where you could win a set of personalized shampoo and conditioner, and everyone entrant wins a discount as well.
Forget about browsing the aisles for a shampoo you think might work. Craning our eyes trying to read about ingredients in the fine print.
Formulate has brought together industry leading chemists and engineers to create personalized shampoo and conditioner for you, based on your lifestyle, and your hair-care needs/concerns. If people have not been sulfate free before, they WILL have to go through a transition phase. I tell you that being sulfate free for so many years, I sone of the best things, I have done for the health of not only my hair but that of my family members too. Its a conscious choice, and it has paid the richest dividends.
Let's talk about my journey with Formulate, now that I have told you of the fabulous work they are doing. So my hair is textured and colored, as I had previously mentioned. It's dry in general and is shoulder-length.
Formulate asked me what my needs/concerns were, with regard to my hair care routine. I needed color protection, curl definition, anti-frizz, hydration, and deep conditioning. I selected the perfume Burgeon, as I just love orange blossom. I can tell you that every time, I shampoo and condition my hair, I feel I am on a tropical holiday. I kid you not. My products were formulated and shipped to me, with an instructional guide, on how to use them.
Formulate uses feedback to make adjustments. While I liked the first set of products, I felt my dry hair needed some more TLC. So Formulate was kind enough to re-formulate my products, and send me a brand new set. I am in love with the formulation, to say the least. My color is bright, my hair is easy to detangle, and my curls are fabulous. In fact, I had used these products in my hair, before I was on the red carpet of
Kansas City Fashion Week, and my curls caught the attention of everyone there. Was happy to spread the word, that it was the magic Formulate. While I do subject my hair to heat styling, but what I personally love is to highlight the natural goodness of my curls. Once I have washed and conditioned my hair with Formulate products, I used a home-made sea-salt spray and scrunched my curls. Then I let it air dry. Formulate allowed the wave/curl spray to do its job in the best potential and I was red-carpet ready with my hair.
Besides being a great product, I fell in love with the packaging. Neutral colors, clean lines, the prettiest bottle set, I have seen. How can you not love such attention to detail? Their feedback system is simply great, as they actually listened to my concerns, and were there with me, throughout my hair care journey with them. You can also download their app, and communicate your feedback via that.
