REVIEW!! BALEA 1 MINUTE EMERGENCY CURE!

Hello Ladies! I’m back with yet another review for you people! Now if you guys follow me on my snapchat, you’ll know that i recently uploaded a drugstore haul from Germany. Now there were a lot of different stuff that I got, but I was really excited for this one specific product, the Balea 1 Minute Emergency Cure!
So I picked it out first and thought to give it a go. My hair was severely damaged in the past due to some health problems I had been having, and so anything that targets dry and damaged hair, instantly gains my attention! So let’s review this product and see whether it stands up to what it actually claims!

PACKAGING AND PRICE:

So this product comes in a small tetrahedron packaging, which is really cute! It contains 25 ml of product which is a decent amount for one use. The pack retails for 0.65 Euros. On the pack there are details for how the product works on one side, and all the ingredients are listed on the other side. One side shows the volume of the product and the last side has an image of a girl with impeccably beautiful hair and the name of the product. All of this is written in German, so you either need a translator, or you have to be good at understanding German!

WHAT THE PRODUCT CLAIMS!:

Now what it stated on their website is as follows:

The building complex with vitamin B3 and provitamin B5 gives hair suppleness care formula protects against drying. Distribute the treatment after shampooing to damp hair, leave on for 1 minute and rinse thoroughly. The skin tolerance is dermatologically tested.

This has all the necessary instructions for how to use the product, and what to expect after you’ve used it.

INGREDIENTS:

Now for those of you who still want to now what ingredients are in the product, here’s a list in English 🙂
Aqua, Cetearyl Alcohol, hexyl decanol, Hexyldecyl Laurate, Propylene Glycol, Cetrimonium Chloride, stearamidopropyl dimethylamine, phenoxyethanol, Prunus Persica Juice, Panthenol, Parfum, Potassium Sorbate, Citric Acid, Polyquaternium-10, Niacinamide, Cocos Nucifera Fruit Extract, Benzoic Acid, Glycine , Dehydroacetic Acid, benzyl Salicylate, hexyl Cinnamal, Limonene, Linalool, Ethylhexylglycerin, Sodium Benzoate, Sodium Acetate, Sodium Chloride, tocopherol, isopropyl Alcohol.

1ST IMPRESSION!!

When I opened the pack, I fell in love with the fragrance of the product! I wouldn’t be exaggerating if I state that it almost felt like a tiny little pack of heaven! The peachy fragrance was so amazing that for a minute there I forgot that I have to put it on my hair and instead I kept sniffing it till reality hit me and I was back! The scent was almost nostalgic. I can’t describe as to what it reminded me off, because I can not put a finger on it myself yet, but it was definitely something that I had used in the past.
Anyway, after I was done obsessing with the fragrance, I poured the product on my hand and followed the instruction. I distributed it on damp hair after shampooing, and let it sit for one minute and a few seconds. After I rinsed it out, I let my hair air dry so that I would know how did it actually perform.
Being honest, for me it did nothing. My hair was as dry and felt as damaged, as they were before I put this treatment in them. So for me this product was a total miss!

2ND IMPRESSION!!!

After sing this, I had another one left, which honest to God I wanted to throw away! However I thought to myself whether I was too quick to judge it? So I thought I’d give it another go! I followed the process again, only this time I left the treatment in my hair for almost 3 to 4 minutes.
As much as I was hoping that it would work, to my disappointment, it didn’t! So that was it for me, and the product just didn’t stand up to its claims.

FINAL VERDICT!

For me the product was a big NO! Although it states that it is a miracle treatment for extremely dry damaged hair, I highly doubt that it would work on mildly damaged hair. So my final verdict is as follows:
Price: 4/5
Quantity: 5/5
Fragrance: 5/5
Quality: 1/5
Would I Buy It Again? No
Would I Recommend It To Someone? No
I hope this article was helpful for all of you! Do let me know if you want me to do more reviews. Drop your suggestions in the comments below or in an inbox on my facebook page!
Until next time 🙂

PAKISTAN’S FIRST EVER BEAUTY SUBSCRIPTION BOX!

What’s up all the beautiful ladies? Welcome back to my blog! Sorry I’ve been really busy lately, so it’s just a disclaimer, that I may not be able to post here regularly, but I promise that I’ll try and post something for you people every chance I get! I started hoarding makeup a while ago, and you know what actually helped me out the most to build up my makeup collection? Beauty Subscription Boxes! Now most of you may not know what beauty boxes or beauty subscriptions really are, so let me clear the air out first. Beauty subscriptions are basically a service that you subscribe to monthly, for a minimal amount, and every month you are sent a box full of 4 to 5 beauty products, that retail for way more than you actually pay for them. So being honest it’s a pretty neat deal. I have been in love with the concept, and therefore I tried out each and every subscription box out there, from Boxycharm, to Ipsy, to Birchbox, hell I even tried a Korean Beauty box! The ...

Life Update! I Got Nikkahfied! Detailed Post!!!

Hey Everyone Welcome Back To My Blog!! I know my regular readers are asking me every now and then where have I been in the past couple of weeks, and also why am I so MIA on the blog. Well the reason is stated in the title! I got Nikkahfied on 16th April, 2017, and this is the main reason for me being not active on the blog! So the preps actually started in late January, I wanted a dress that spoke to me, so I wanted to be sure that I am choosing something that I have always imagined myself wearing on my big day. Although I will be having a proper wedding in future, so I wanted to keep it as minimalist as possible, and also chic at the same time. I did not want a total bridal vibe, but simultaneously, I wanted something that made me stand out of the crowd. So I bought an embellished fabric from Rabi Centre, that's located in Bahria Town Phase 7, and I wanted it to be stitched as a floor length Maxi dress. The tailor however did not follow my instructions, and made a floor le...

MAKEUP 101! KNOW YOUR UNDERTONE!

First of I’m really sorry that i haven’t been posting anything the past week. Well that was because of the Eid Holidays, so I thought I’d give myself a break too! But I’m back now and the first thing that I wanted to do was to help you guys out. Now ever since I posted my first blog about  Choosing the right foundation , my inbox has been flooded with requests to write a post about Undertones. People always have difficulty, or at times don’t have the slightest idea about what the term “Undertone” is referring to, let alone what their undertone is. So to start off, what exactly is the Undertone? Well the undertone is the color underneath the surface of your skin. So to describe it as easily and as simply as I can, I would say that the undertone is the shade that is reflected from your skin when you are in broad daylight. WHAT IS AN UNDERTONE? To give you a simple idea, just try this little experiment, wear a white top, tie your hair back, open up a window so that you a...
