Day: October 19, 2021

After a stressful, hectic week recently, I indulged in some retail therapy (hellooooo, Ulta!) So naturally I have some products to review now.

First up is Living Proof Hydration + Repair Mini Transformation Kit:

I have pretty long hair, and it takes a beating with all the yard work, outdoor activities, and occasional (ahem) workouts, plus I can’t stand my hair in my face, so it ends up in a ponytail a lot. I decided to treat my hair to some TLC with this kit.

The Living Proof Hydration + Repair kit includes try-it size bottles of shampoo, conditioner, a mask treatment, and a perfecting spray, which is basically a leave-in conditioner/detangler. For an idea of their size, the shampoo and conditioner are one ounce containers.

The product description claims this kit “transforms dry, damaged hair to look and feel visibly healthier” and “makes hair soft, smooth, and shiny”.

I have tried all four products now, and I just feel sort of *meh* about all of them. They are not horrible, but there is nothing special or outstanding about them, either. My hair felt fine after using all these products, but honestly, not any different from when I use any of my other products.

I was disappointed because this kit got pretty high reviews on Ulta.com. Maybe my hair wasn’t all that damaged to start with, since I am pretty careful with it, or maybe I haven’t used it enough yet (none of the bottles are empty yet). I just wasn’t wowed by any of the items in this kit, but I didn’t hate them and sling them across the room in disgust either, so that’s good, right?
