Living Proof Scalp Care Revitalising Treatment

Living Proof has the most amazing range of hair care and I cannot tell you how much I cannot live without their Perfect Hair Day Dry Shampoo, it is incredible. However, their latest launch the Living Proof Scalp Care Revitalising Treatment arrived through my letter box some times ago now and I adore it.
Living Proof Scalp Care Revitalising Treatment
For me, scalp care is an issue that isn’t talked about enough, though I do my best to share my own issues, products to help soothe, improve and manage the best I can. My scalp is okay 80% of the time, but problems flare up when I am stressed, not feeling great or something had irritated it, at which point my head itches, it is sore, my scalp flakes and to date, I can count on one hand which products I’ve found helpful.

Living Proof are the masters at dealing with problems by finding simple solutions as far as I’m concerned. When it comes to your scalp, before you can treat it, you firstly need to understand it. The scalp is made up
of five layers that work together to force the hair grows and provide a critical barrier to protect your brain. The scalp isn’t just skin or hair, it is a unique environment covered in sebaceous glands with a lower barrier function regular skin but it has a tendency to get damp and dirty because it’s covered in hair - a kind of vicious circle.  From pollution to hormones, diet, stress and even the climate, life takes it toll on your scalp and any build-up can cause dryness, itching, discomfort and even hair loss!

So what is the Living Proof Scalp Care Revitalising Treatment? It is a treatment which is powered by Living Proofs very own targeted Healthy Follicle Complex. This night time treatment is designed to get to the root of hair thinning by fighting environmental stressors like some of those mentioned above. The result of using this product is fuller, thicker, healthier-looking hair that stays put. 

This treatment is designed for use by any hair type experiencing thinning hair or anyone who wishes to promote thicker, healthier-looking hair from the root. The Healthy Follicle Complex is described as being a technology that acts like fertiliser for your scalp. Using yeast proteins and zinc salts to promote strengthening the hair at the root while encapsulated time-released actives nourish the hair strands, roots and the scalp. Jojoba Esters and vitamins nourish and moisturise the scalp whilst helping to restore the barrier function for prolonged balanced hydration and scalp care. There is also a peptide blend which plumps hair fibres helping to increase hair diameter for a fuller look and feel.

What I love about this treatment is that it just becomes part of your routine. It is designed to be used on either wet or dry hair and all you need to do is part your hair into sections and apply directly to the scalp and once applied, you don’t need to rinse the product out and I’ve been using it daily for just over a month and whilst I have combination oily hair which means greasy roots and dry ends, I have noticed any issue or problem that has risen from using this leave-in treatment, but my scalp is notably less irritated and stressed. Plus, this treatment comes with its own little massage brush for extra soothing and TLC.

Priced at £25 for 100ml, I’ve already purchased a back up tube ready for when this one runs out, I have a feeling it is now a product I won’t be able to live without!
You can find it via Living Proof, Cult Beauty, Space NK and other Living Proof stockists.

TOYL Super Serum September Beauty Box

This months edition of the Time Of Your Life (TOYL) Beauty Box is all serums and the role they play within your skincare routine and their importance. For a very long time now, I have used serums as part of my routine, as well as keeping your skin hydrated and moisturised they can have a whole host of other benefits such as treating discolouration, dullness, fine lines, or in some cases acne.
TOYL Super Serum September Beauty Box
Serums can be expensive and this months beauty box from TOYL contains two of the most expensive serums on the market alongside three other products to test and try alongside your serums!  Once again, this box is worth an incredible £149.95 and it is on sale for just £35 or £30 if you use the code BQUK!

The first product out of the box comes from BioEffect with their EGF Serum and just 5ml is priced at £50! 
TOYL Super Serum September Beauty Box
Described as being a ground-breaking anti-ageing treatment that delivers significant, visibly noticeable results. This serum utilises a plant-based replica of EGF (a naturally occurring human protein) and it works to effectively reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and the appearance of pores while at the same time improving radiance. It absorbs incredible quickly into skin without being sticky or tacky and it is incredibly moisturising as it works to restore and rehydrate the skin as well as to diminish the look of sun damage and dry spots. 

The second serum within this box comes from Rodial with their Bee Venom Super Serum, which is £60 for just 10ml.
TOYL Super Serum September Beauty Box
This serum is said to use only the most powerful anti-ageing properties and ingredients do include bee venom whose job it is to reduce expression lines and decrease muscle contractions, bio marine collagen 6 which works to promote the skin’s elasticity, and something called marimoist which helps with long-lasting hydration. Further ingredients include P-cell which provides a lifting effect by increasing the skin’s elasticity and firming up its tone, while at the same time sodium hyaluronate acts to instantly plump fine lines and wrinkles. Putting all of these ingredients together, it is said the Rodial Bee Venom Super Serum perfects, illuminates and revitalises the skin.

So those are the two serums which are featured within this box and they are definitely pricey but I am really enjoying the BioEffect EGF Serum! The final three products within the box help to get the best out of your skincare, especially serums.

Starting with Magnitone Wipe Out Supernaturals 100% Bamboo Cleansing Cloth.
TOYL Super Serum September Beauty Box
The 100% natural Bamboo Fibre cloths are designed to remove makeup, skincare and SPf with just long-wear makeup with just warm water. These cleansing cloths feature a microfibre finish that expands when wet to trap makeup particles. They are a great Eco-friendly alternative to disposable makeup wipes and these WipeOut cloths are not only machine washable but are reusable up to 1000 times.

The next product is from Gatineau with their Contouring Facial Roller.
TOYL Super Serum September Beauty Box
This facial roller from Gatineau not only helps to boost circulation but also to drain toxins and reduce the look of puffiness, thanks to the cool touch of the rolling system. Designed to be used after the application of skincare and is perfect for use across the temples, the nose, cheeks, the jawline and also from the ear to the jawline.

The final item within this months box is from a brand I’ve never come across before called Sensory Retreat with the Dreamy Self-Heating Eye Mask.
TOYL Super Serum September Beauty Box
These masks are designed to help you switch off, relax and completely unwind with its soothing and calming jasmine scent. Spending more and more time in front of screens - iPad, Laptop, Desktop, Kindle and even phone screens can leave your eyes feeling fatigued and in need of some TLC and these masks are perfect for just that.

This box is worth £149.95 and could be yours for just £30*.  If you didn't know, TOYL is a monthly subscription box and it usually costs just £35 a month (£30 using my code below) but, unlike other subscription boxes I’ve tried, you always have the option to pause your subscription and pick it up again when you are ready. So if there is a box you don't feel is right for you, you can hold that subscription and continue when you spot something you love, which in my case has been every month so far!

Find out more about the Time Of your Life and what is on offer right here and remember to use the code BQUK to grab yourself £5 off!
