Sixteen92 sixteen92.com/ Combined Thoughts: After going from a golden Lannisteresque bombshell (or should I say wildfire?) to accidental brassy Tully and back over a span of several months, my hair needed some serious love and attention as it was dry, split ended and painfully knotting from the broken off ends. I am not a vain lady but when it comes to my locks, I can be let us just say "a little difficult and hard to please" and many hear me roar (okay I'm done promise). So suffice it to say, not any product or treatment will do. I must search out the best and I believe I finally found just that with my recent discovery of Sixteen92 and the SuperNatural Hair Serum. When I started As The Final Page Turns, I never thought I would be reviewing hair serum but dear readers this hair elixir works (it does wonders on my split ends not to mention frizz) smells absolutely divine, is a pampering gift that is too good not to share and reminds me of the lost past of harnessing elements from nature to heal, restore and improve all it touches. Having super long curly hair, a strange assortment of homemade concoctions (ever try Mayonnaise or vodka on your head? Not exactly a scent combination you want to walk around with) and ridiculously expensive nasty commercial products on my head over the years that just sat there with itching or a horrid chemical smell that lingered for days and left their marks on my delicate skin. Those days are thankfully over as my morning routine now consists of brushing out and dampening my tresses to receive 3 to 4 drops (paying special attention to the ends) from a carefully selected bottle (that corresponds and instantly lifts any dark mood and eases my mind after chaotic work nights). The softness and otherworldly shine that shows in the vanity mirror are unreal and scent that follows me to eased slumber is something I can never be without again (Brava and thank you Sixteen92). One scent at a time:
Frosted Gingerbread *from the 2017 Winter 2017 Collection (Listed Notes: Warm gingerbread cookies with sugared vanilla frosting) In the bottle and impressions: In the bottle, this is buttery gingerbread and when applied the home baked quality amplifies with an almost boozy note that you can't help but inhale (I've been caught quite a few times just sitting at my computer losing all track of time just enjoying the warm comforting scent that stays on my long braid). You'll Shoot Your Eye Out! *from the 2017 Holiday Collection (Listed Notes: Spiced cocoa, firewood, bayberry, warm shortbread, ovaltine, buttered rum, deep snow) In the bottle and impressions: In the bottle, this is malted chocolate that is perfect to combat the stubborn blustery winds and ice that just won't go away. When ran through my curls this turns to chocolate shortbread with hints of bayberry and chimney smoke. I hope this fragrance comes back for the special seasonal releases or will be found listed in the 2019 Resurrection sale. Red Velvet Hot Chocolate *from the 2018 Resurrection Sale (Listed Notes: Dark chocolate, milk chocolate, red velvet cake accord, buttermilk whipped cream) In the bottle and impressions: This was a long-awaited treat and was totally worth the wait. In the bottle, gooey caramel and cocoa dusted cream cheese completely not what I was expecting but how could I not like this. When applied, oh that is when the scent magic begins as this morphs from mid to dark cocoa to luscious buttered rum. I guess this innocent hot chocolate has some extra ingredients and I love it even more for that. sixteen92.com Comments are closed.
