Neways Replenishing Mist Review


Today, I will be reviewing a hair product, the Neways Replenishing Mist.  I've been using this since January, usually after washing my hair (which I did start doing more often =P).  The Replenishing Mist is used to remoisturise, rehydrate & strengthen your hair & it has worked for me ~ My hair is long, yet it was dry & prone to split ends, it frizzes & just looks dead.  I know this is my lack of care, treatment, overuse of styling tongs & products & not washing my hair regularly but I was determined to do this right!  I noticed results pretty much straight away & it only improved!  The only downside is because my hair is thick, I have to take more time to curl/straighten my hair more often, then when I would wash it once a week, style & only have to do that twice a week to keep the style.  But I love that my hair has gotten its life back & I don't feel the need to cut it off, & when styling, it looks so much healthier so it's worth it!  

Ingredients:  Water (aqua), isopentyldiol, cetrimonium chloride, caprylyl glycol, hydrolyzed keratin, panthenol, disodium EDTA, hydrolyzed glycosaminoglycans, caprylic/capric triglyceride, lavandula angustifolia (lavender) oil, pelargonium graveolens flower oil, rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary) leaf oil, santalum album (sandalwood) oil, salvia sclarea (clary) oil, phenoxyethanol, chlorphenesin.

Aubrey Organics Inc & TrueTouch (Neways) Review


Aubrey Organics Silken Earth Powder Blush (in Honey Bronze): I purchased this blush from iHerb.com, being 100% natural ingredients & talc free.  Honey Bronze is a soft brown/orange so when I use it, I only try & dip the blush brush as lightly as I can for just a soft colour to the cheeks, otherwise it is quite powerful.  With my porcelain skin, it REALLY pops, or is 'dramatic' if you like. I actually think if I had darker skin (hello again fake tan!), it may look better with the complexion.  But on a plus note, it holds to the skin so it's not messy & feels smooth on the face.  Overall I like the brand, the packaging & the powder but will try their different colours that would better suit my skin colour.

The Ingredients:
Silk powder, copernicia cerifera (carnauba) wax, tapioca starch*, lauroyl lysine, mica, iron oxide. May contain: Beta vulgaris (beet) powder, carmine, raphanus sativus (radish) powder, titanium dioxide, silica.  *Organic 


TrueTouch Hydrating Cream to Powder - Porcelain:  This pressed foundation from Neways is creamy & gives a medium coverage to your face.  It's quite silky however I did find I need my powder foundation softly brushed over the top to reduce the 'shine' or if I sweat.  It is one of the most expensive foundations I have purchased & although I do like the coverage & the feel of it, the amount in the compact didn't last long.  Before I bought my ecotool brushes, I used the sponge applicator that came with the compact (as you can see) briefly until I received the foundation brush.  I would purchase it again but would try other brand foundations first.

The Ingredients:
Isononyl isononanoate, C18-21 alkane, methyl methacrylate crosspolymer, polyethylene, isocetyl alcohol, dimethicone, polyglyceryl-6 polyricinoleate, methicone, retinyl palmitate, tocopheryl acetate, iron oxides (CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499), titanium dioxide (CI 77891).  May contain: Mica (CI77019), bismuth oxychloride (CI 77163). 

Neways Toothpaste


When I was introduced to Neways, I thought this would be the great first step in to the 'safe, natural' lifestyle, so I purchased a few different products.  & I'm glad I did (=  Today, I'll be giving you my opinion on the Neways Ultrashine Radiance Toothpaste.  Before I start, my first thought on any natural toothpaste (before I would even try it), would be that it would be bland or taste icky.  Maybe not even smooth (don't ask me why haha... =S).  But when I tried this, I was quite amazed!  Just like normal toothpaste!  Maybe a bit lighter in the mouth & being a peppermint flavour, it isn't overpowering or stingy.  The thing that attracted me the most about this peppermint toothpaste is that it doesn't contain fluoride & it features casein, a naturally occurring protein in teeth.  You also only need to use a pea size so despite the small packaging (this one is 72g), it does go a fair way.  It doesn't froth up a lot like normal toothpaste does, so I'll take it down to the ingredients used.  But my teeth are still sparkly & pearly white (=.  I would definitely use this again.

The Ingredients:
Sorbitol, water (aqua), hydrated silica, sodium coco-sulfate, xylitol, peppermint oil, mentha piperita (peppermint) oil, calcium glycerophosphate, cellulose gum, sodium chlorite (stabilised chlorine dioxide), hydrolysed casein, sucralose, chlorophyllin-copper complex.
