Hi guys! I'm really excited to be sharing this post today because I think I've officially found my favourite hair product! To be honest, I've never really been 'big on' hair. My beauty concerns goes in this order: 1) Skin care 2) Base makeup 3) Hair
I'm picky about my hair salons but not too much about what hair products I use to maintain my hair. I'll just grab whatever shampoo and conditioner I feel like buying when I'm at Watsons/Guardian, heck I don't even use hair mask or treatment any more these days. I did buy an expensive hair oil that I rarely use, but I do use a night care milk before I go to bed. If you have read my post a while back, you'd know that my hair is generally quite tame except for dry ends and what I find to be a lack of volume especially at my crown. I like my hair to have that airy feel to it, the more voluminous the better hehe.
It's going to be a long post ahead, but trust me it is worth reading :)
Presenting to you the ErucA's hair products, the next generation Japanese botanical oil haircare! ErucA utilises 12 different types of botanical oils that provides a luxurious and thorough clean while being skin-friendly. The focus has been on seed oils, which provides nature's 'silicon-like' effects without the harmful effect of silicon itself!
Seed oils from broccoli, cowberry, bilberry, milk thistle etc. are the hallmark of these moisturising and shine-inducing formulas, while the blends also contain other rich botanically-sourced oils such as argan, virgin prune and marula oil, which helps rejuvenate tired tresses.
Most importantly, ALL of ErucA's hair products DO NOT contain SURFACTANTS, MINERAL OILS and ARTIFICIAL COLOURS!
ErucA and samplestore very kindly sent the whole range over, thank you!
L-R: Scalp & Volume Shampoo, S & V Conditioner, Moist & Repair Shampoo, M & R Conditioner, 3D Volume Up Shampoo, 3D VU Foam, S & V Hair Mask
^ This.
With three different product lines, I can't decide which to try first so I took a whiff of all the bottles and chose the one with the fragrance I liked the most.
JENG JENG JENG... It's the ErucA Scalp & Volume series!
With its girly pink packaging, you can hardly miss these in the bathroom. It smells like white grapes! Very fruity scent heh.
Here's a look at their textures:
Scalp & Volume range:
- Botanical oil extracted from specially selected seed oils help to restore balance to your scalp
- Moisturising hyaluronic acid repair the scalp and alleviate common scalp problems
- All-natural botanical oil extracted from cowberry seeds and billberry seeds help to revive and restore your hair and scalp
I love the smell!! I would say this range is very suitable for girls who experience oily scalp problems. I now only use this range once a week because my scalp isn't that oily. Also, with a less oily scalp, your hair will definitely have more volume at the roots! Win-win situation.
My favourite out of the lot is the scalp treatment!! My scalp feels really clean and refreshed after using it. Two thumbs up.
The next product line I tried was the 3D Volume Up.
It only has 2 products: An all-in-one volume up shampoo and the after care volume-up foam. I'm really excited about the 3D Volume Up foam!
- Silicon-free formula cares for hair and scalp
- Volumnising ingredient creates volume from roots without use of harmful hair products
- Botanical oil extracted from broccoli seed and cranberry seed moisturise and cleanse hair and scalp
- Clarifies hair without stripping essential oils from scalp
I can never complain about having more volume hahaha. The all-in-one shampoo cleans the hair well, and gives it just enough moisture so even without using a conditioner, your hair wouldn't feel stripped. It does seem targeted at aging ladies but ANYONE who feels that they need more volume should try this. The 3D Volume Up foam is very handy and just a full pump gives me the right volume I need. No more using styling products that are hard to wash off, or are full of chemicals to achieve that!
Lastly, my FAVOURITE product series is *drumrolls* Moist & Repair!!
I'm guilty, for judging a book by its cover. The two bottles pale in comparison to the other two ranges because it doesn't look as eye-catching but it's my favourite range of the three AND my favourite shampoo & conditioner thus far. It doesn't have a sweet fruity scent, but the floral scent kinda grows on you. It also keeps your hair smelling SUPER NICE the whole day. I love smelling my hair now hahaha.
Textures:
Moist & Repair range:
- Hair defining formula restores water and oil balances in your hair and scalp for frizz-free hair
- Luxurious argan oil, virgin prune oil and marula oil help to make hair more manageable while being gentle
- Does not strip natural oil from your hair
This was an unexpected winner but I really love it. I hightly recommend this to girls who have dry and damaged hair, because it made my hair so shiny and smooth! A hair product formulated with 'oils' might scare a lot of people but don't worry because a well-formulated one wouldn't. None of ErucA's hair products FEEL or LOOK oily. It lathers well and you need to use only a small amount each time.
Tip: If you have short hair, use only small amount of shampoo (about the size of a 10 cents coin). 50 cents coin size for average length and two 20 cents coins size if your hair is past your shoulders.
This is my hair right after washing! See how shiny and non frizzy it is!
And this is the next morning, still looking good!
Till next time,
