Play With Colour : The Body Shop Hair Chalk in Falling For Blue

Hello loves!

The Body Shop just released their Spring Trend Makeup Collection. The front runner is none-other than their newest product—Hair Chalk! A small tub is worth Php 695.00. Along with the hair chalks, The Body Shop also included 2 sets of shimmer cubes and 2 lipglosses in the collection.

So a couple of weeks ago, The Body Shop sent me a package containing one of each product included in their Spring Trend Makeup Collection. And here's one of them...

The Body Shop Hair Chalk in Falling For Blue

Since it's the newest product and it's a limited edition, I used it right away after opening the package.

It's housed in a simple, round, clear container. You can see the rich, blue color of the product. "Play with Color" is certainly a fitting tagline to this pretty thing.

Here's what's labeled at the back.

And more info from the press release:

More info on the labels of the packaging.

This hair chalk is pretty simple to use. Just follow these three steps!

And there's also instructions included in the packaging just incase you are wondering. ;)

The Body Shop's Hair Chalk is available in two shades:

Falling For Blue

and Tickle Me Pink

I'd love to try the pink one but the blue that I have is just equally gorgeous. 

So here's a closeup of the product.

And a swatch on my hand.

And let's see how blue looks on my hair:

Here I just highlighted my hair with few blue streaks.

I thought I would look weird with blue strands on my hair but I actually find it fun-looking.

And in here I try to make it ombre-like.

And oh, I used the shimmer cubes and lipgloss included in the collection that The Body Shop sent me in these photos. Reviews will be posted soon. :)

I even added some on my bangs but just while I'm writing this post, I realized that there's a streak of hair on my bangs that's not evenly applied. Haha!

What I realized with hair chalk is it makes my dry hair noticeable. Haha! But it still looks playful and I have some creative makeup looks in-mind where this can be handy. I don't think I can use this for everyday looks a.k.a. office looks but I can definitely see myself having some blue highlights while doing my shopping, partying, watching a concert or just hanging out with friends. 

But just like any other hair chalks, this transfers to clothes. Avoid wearing dark and very light clothes. Safest ones are probably blue-colored ones, especially printed ones. Always set this with hair spray for it to stay longer and it's not waterproof so avoid using this when it's the rainy season.

Are you willing to add some blue to your hair too? How about pink? Would you like to try these new hair chalks from The Body Shop? :)

Cheers,

Tony Moly Berry Trendy Hair Color Tint in Passion Red

Hello loves!

Ever wondered what your hair would look like if it were red? Like BOLD RED? 

I sure have. I was thinking of getting my hair colored in red but I wasn't sure if it would look good on me... besides, I might look a bit strange when I walk around UST with that hair color especially while I'm in my class in Graduate School.

Good thing there are non-permanent ways to color your hair. And one of them is from Tony Moly...

Tony Moly Berry Trendy Hair Color Tint

This is Php 378.00 each.

The color I got is in Passion Red.

I'm so glad I got this color out of the 6 available shades. Other colors are - Ultra Gleen, Neon Blue, Crazy Pink, Chic Purple, and Tangerine Tonic.

Btw, this was sent to me by TM Philippines for review. :)

Info on the box:

I like that there are products like these (like hair chalk) where you can play with your hair with different colors. You can use it for highlights or like what I did—applied on the ends of the hair a la Ombre.

So here's the product:

It's really RED! LOVE IT! 

It's very easy to use. I just smudge it on my hair (I applied it on dry hair but I believe it works on damp hair too). It's very pigmented, in just one swipe, you can see the color instantly.

I must warn you that this can be a bit hard to remove when you get your hands stained so I suggest you wear gloves.

To make the color stay longer on your hair, heat it with a hair iron/curler or set it with  hairspray.

Below are pictures of me with the product on the ends of my locks:

See how red the ends are? I just loooove the rocker feel it gave my hair. 

It lasted the whole day on my hair. But I advise you to skip it when it's raining hard or if you will be doing some physical activities where you'll be all sweaty. :P

And oh, another warning... if you have long hair like I do, you might want to not do what I just did on those pictures which is apply it on the bottom parts of the hair and wear black (or white/light colored) tops because the color easily transfers on clothing. :( I had to brush off the red stains frequently. :P

This surely is a fun product to use. I don't use it regularly but it can be handy when I go to parties, concerts or when I do some makeup experiments. I have a makeup theme in mind  right now where I will surely use this! Excited to do that soon! :D

Would you use Tony Moly Berry Trendy Hair Color Tints too? Which color would you wear?

Cheers,
