OK, so you guys know how I was searching for a new flat iron and, after a few tries, finally fell in love with a digital dynamo called Quantum by beauty brand Theorie, right? Well, so enamored am I with my new hair tool that I began perusing some more of their products online - most of which have no less than five stars, by the way! Super impressed by their products' ever-growing list of accolades, I decided to put my proverbial toe back in the water... AGAIN! Yes, yes, y'all... I am trying out more hair products. (Don't roll your eyes or give me that look - I know, I know!) Anywho, for the initiated, you know the drill: cats, curiosity... MEOW! So, without further ado, let me get to my first roundup. It's a trial-sized assortment of goodies curated from their Argan Oil line called the Argan Oil Ultimate Reform Collection - Discovery Edition.
Tucked away in a faux cowhide pouch, the Argan Oil Ultimate Reform Collection - Discovery Edition contains five pickings from their line of products infused with a symphony of nutrient-rich oils, including frankincense, grapeseed and the headlining Moroccan Argan oil.
The Argan Oil Ultimate Reform Shampoo and Conditioner boasts a one-two punch of hydrating power while imparting a brilliant shine to dull tresses. Housed in dark amber bottles with twist off tops that deceivingly look like pumps, this paraben- and sulfate-free duo works hard at restoring hair to its highest degree of health and lustre all while leaving strands with a silk-like finish. Oh, and it smells of sweet citrus to boot!
The Argan Oil Ultimate Reform Hair Mask comes in an ample packet and is formulated to address severely damaged, unresponsive hair. From root to tip, it provides a shield of hydration to thirsty strands, helping to guard it against breakage and rehab it to its ultimate state of vibrancy.
Rounding out the hair products in this sample collection if the Argan Oil Ultimate Reform Hair Serum, a luxurious elixir formulated to amp up the moisture as well as protect from the rigors of heat styling and boost shine. It, too, has a juicy citrus smell and comes in a frosted amber bottle equipped with a dropper top to help control the dispensing of the serum.
And as for the fifth and lone body product of bunch, the Argan Oil Ultra Luxe Body Cleanser is as much an indulgence for the skin as it for the senses. Imbued with the same scent signature to the Argan line, this gentle but thorough wash leaves skin feeling generously soft, supple and well moisturized. It contains all natural ingredients and is free of harsh agents such as sodium lauryl/laureth sulfates.
So there you have it - my first go 'round with some of Theorie's products! I figured I would whet my appetite with this convenient sampling and then take it from there. *sigh* I know, guys... the girl can't help it, though. I like trying new stuff. Especially hair stuff, so I'm really looking forward to seeing how these goodies fare on me. And when I've tried them out, I'll be sure to be back and give you the full skinny!
Oh, and P.S. - Do you know that after I mourned the slow demise of my beloved HAI flat iron and after being told by the online retailer I originally bought it from that it was discontinued that they now have it RESTOCKED and are SELLING IT (albeit for a couple dollars more than priced previously)?! See, it just goes to show you that you really have to be careful who you speak to because not all customer reps are well informed. OK, maybe the rep made an honest mistake, but she was pretty adamant when she told me. I was shocked to see it on their site recently! But no matter; everything worked out in my favor because I found an iron I'm totally enamored with and - dare I say - is on par if not better than my HAI. Oh, well. All's well that ends well! #WINNING!
The Argan Oil Ultimate Reform Collection - Discovery Edition is available at yourtheorie(.)com and retails for $28.
**UPDATE: 6/30 - Well, you can color me impressed, y'all! Not only did the shampoo and conditioner deliver on its promises of hydration and shine, but the serum came through as well. I was scared that the latter would leave my hair feeling heavy because of its oil content (truth be told, my hair doesn't really like oils), but the serum served as the perfect complement to the 'poo and con. I really like the combo; altogether, it didn't really wear my hair down until my natural scalp/hair oils started to kick in around day five, leaving me with a strong desire to wash my hair a day or so earlier than my normal seven-day schedule. My hair looked good, though. I haven't tried the Hair Mask yet because I don't feel my hair needs it right now, nor the Body Cleanser, but look forward to using them both. All in all, I am loving these products and can't wait to try some more from this brand!
