Ella Mae Brings French Hair Care Experience To The UK.

We love a bit of luxury at Frost so we could not wait to get our hands on some Ella Mae hair products. It is fair to say they did not disappoint. They use organic, sustainable ingredients and the range targets specific hair problems. This excellent range works on the hair and the scalp, making your hair feel as good as it looks. They leave your hair and scalp feeling thoroughly cared for and in tip top condition. I particularly love the Rose Water Shampoo and Forever Shine Revitalising Mask. I am obsessed with this range now and I will continue to use it. Luxury haircare at it’s best.

The generous people at Ella Mae are offering Frost readers a discount of 30%. Enter FROST30 at the checkout.

New luxury brand promotes hair health and wellbeing.

French luxury brand Ella Mae was founded by a brother-sister team who had become concerned they were unable to find hair care products that addressed their specific needs, such as slow-growth and thinning.

ELLA MAE, HAIRCARE, shampoo, conditioner, hair mask, luxury

After much research and investigation including journeys to Paris, Provence and Morocco they have created a new hair care range which aims to revive, hydrate and soothe.

Launched in 2019, Ella Mae uses sustainable, organic ingredients sourced in Provence, and after much success in France, has just launched for sale in the UK through their website: ellamae.com

The range was created to be experienced as a treatment to address common problems like brittle and thinning hair, slow growth and dry scalp. Offering more benefits than an everyday hair-washing routine lit leaves hair feeling softer, shinier and more hydrated. If used twice a week, Ella Mae products will result in at least 30% less follicle breakage.

Every Ella Mae product is nutrient-dense, packed with vitamins and minerals helping to keep hair hydrated, frizz-free and protected. Karanja Oil is used throughout the range offering 100% natural antioxidant protection of hair colour from repeated shampooing and UV Rays.

All ingredients used in the range are paraben and sulphate-free, and never tested on animals. When compared to similar products Ella Mae use 35% fewer synthetic ingredients.

Perhaps one of the more unusual ingredients in Ella Mae products is snail slime, which in fact has some of the best moisturising compounds found in nature and is hugely beneficial for both hair and scalp, and promotes healthy hair growth.

The beautifully-designed packaging combines elegance with simplicity. The entire range is manufactured to the highest standards with a strong focus on luxurious textures and naturally intoxicating scents.

Andreas Wendt Haircare Review

Andreas Wendt Haircare Reviewhair Andreas Wendt Haircare Review Andreas Wendt Thermo Protector Styling Spray reviewNothing makes you feel amazing like great hair, so we are always on the lookout for the next big thing to make our hair look brilliant. We got sent some products from Andreas Wendt Haircare. The range launched exclusively in the UK on idealworld.tv in January.

The exclusive range, created by haircare and styling professional Andreas Wendt, looks to target specific elements of hair styling in particular colour and care. Andreas Wendt is best known for his hair-shows and make-overs throughout the entertainment circuit in Germany and Luxembourg, often frequenting the biggest fashion shows.

But is it any good? We tried the Andreas Wendt Age Vital Shampoo and Conditioner which we thought was great. It left hair shiny and more manageable. We couldn’t stop stroking our hair. The shampoo has horsetail-glycogen energy complex, which helps to cleanse and revive hair. The conditioner really hydrates and nourishes. Both give shine. 

Next up we tried the Andreas Wendt Full Tastic Powder. This holds hair and creates volume and texture, a great styling aid that really works.

The Andreas Wendt Thermo Protector Styling Spray is something that everyone should have in their bathroom cabinet. It helps to guard hair from damage caused by heat exposure, the Thermo Protector is a formulation that helps prevent hair from drying out, whilst nourishing it during styling. Containing Panthenol which helps to moisturise hair, improving the condition and giving hair a more visible shine. Heat is very damaging to hair and it is always wise to use a protector. This works well and smells great.

We were impressed with Andreas Wendt’s new haircare range and will continue to use it. We were impressed with the results.

Salon Science: AnaGain Review – For Thicker, Fuller, Denser Hair

Frost is reviewing something a bit different: In recent years there has been a huge leap forward in plant bio-active and stem cell technology which has provided access to superior formulations and ingredients which have not, until now, been available in haircare. Salon Science  is a brand new haircare collection of 18 products that uses plant stem cells and bio-active technology within the formulations.

Salon Science- AnaGain Review - For Thicker, Fuller, Denser Hair

Developed by the leading experts in plant stem cells and bio-actives, all of the products are underpinned by extensive in vitro and in vivo testing. The collection is comprised of four ranges, each devised to tackle a specific series of problems using a key active ingredient, derived from plant extracts.

Salon Science seamlessly combines cutting edge scientific expertise with plant bio-active and stem cell technology resulting in a luxury salon quality collection. Salon Science breathes life back into hair… reviving, revitalising and nourishing from root to tip.

There are many reasons why women lose their hair. Pregnancy, hormonal imbalance, nutritional deficiency, metabolism, genetics and stress. With that in mind we tried the AnaGain

This is what they say: “Packed with AnaGain, an organic pea sprout extract that is rich in restorative proteins, starch and fibres. These rebalancing phytonutrients combined with caffeine agents stimulate blood circulation to help encourage the growth of hair at the root. This advanced formulation helps strengthen, add volume, moisturise and protect, making hair more resistant to everyday damage. Continuous use of the Pro-accelerant regime helps give denser, thicker, fuller hair in 3 months.”

Do we think it works? Yes, hair looks noticeable better and thicker. Although this is all cosmetic it make you look and feel better. The shampoo is £15, the conditioner is £17 and the treatment is £39. Considering the price of other hair loss treatments- and the fact that many of them don’t actually work- this seems reasonable. We will continue to use this and give a further update in a few months.

We got sent a parcel full of Osmo hair products. We were quite excited when we opened the envelope. Has it given us amazing hair? Read on and find out…

Osmo hair product review

Osmo Deep Moisturising Shampoo and Conditioner

This shampoo is perfect for dry, permed, coloured or heat traumatised hair. It contains Essential Oils of Patchouli and Ylang Ylang. It is a gentle, cleansing shampoo that really nourishes. It replenishes lost moisture without weighing hair down.

It leaves hair silky, healthy and shiny. The smell is a lovely light coconut scent. The conditioner is great as it leaves hair wonderfully detangled. It is thick and creamy but doesn’t weigh hair down. This is a brilliant shampoo and conditioner. It leaves my dry, frizz-prone hair soft and untangled. From feelunique.com

Osmo Wonder 10: 10 Effects Leave-In Treatment

Osmo Effects Wonder 10 is a unique all-in-one spray that is a Keratin based treatment with 10 wondrous effects. Designed to leave the hair feeling softer, silkier and more manageable with a radiant shine.

10 Effects:
– Helps repair dry and damaged hair
– Nourishes and protects for radiant shine
– Thermal protection from styling tools
– Delivers soft, silky, more manageable results
– Contains colour protection complex
– Creates body and movement
– Incredible detangler

This really is a wonder product and does a ton of different things. It gives thermal protection from heat (which I love, it really makes a difference to your hair as heat is so damaging), it repairs and nourishes and makes hair incredibly soft and beautiful. It makes hair healthy and tangle free. You only need a little and you can forgo conditioner too. It can also be used on synthetic hair. A truly brilliant product.

Osmo Day Two Styler Dry Shampoo

I love dry shampoo. Although not all dry shampoo is created equal. I have dark hair and some just makes my roots look grey. Not really the look I am going for. I have tried dry shampoo for brunette hair and I think that is great, however Osmo’s Day Two Styler brushes through without leaving a trace. It removes oil and adds volume. It is one of the best dry shampoos I have ever tried and smells amazing with just a hint of citrus.

Osmo Extreme Volume Root Lifter

This is an outstanding root lift for fine (or other types of) hair. It strengthens and gives great volume that lasts all day. It also:

Moisturizes and conditions the hair and improves the health of the scalp.
Contains natural anti-oxidants
Gives volume to limp tresses
Spray formula won’t cause excess build-up
Long lasting

I have fine hair and I love this product. It really does give a lasting lift. Good stuff.

Osmo products are amazing. Definitely a fan now and will be buying again. From feelunique.com
