PRODUCT REVIEW: CREAM SILK DRY RESCUE


I was not into hair conditioners. I can live without it as long as I wash my hair with shampoo. Shampooing removes dirt and oil, leaving hair squeaky clean. However, it can also make your strands dry. I’ve been using organic shampoo for months and I noticed that my chemically-treated hair was becoming parched and frizzy. I don’t blame the organic shampoo though. Any shampoo can really make your hair dry.

 I felt the need to use conditioners. Weeks ago, while I was searching for the best fit for my hair, I came across Sample Room’s website that offers free samples of different hair care products. I opted to try Cream Silk since it’s one of the most popular hair care products in the Philippines when it comes to conditioners. Last week, I got my free samples and tried it immediately.

Brand: Cream Silk Dry Rescue Hair Reborn Conditioner

The label claims it has customized solutions designed for Filipinas which got me because some products work differently to different races. When it comes to weather, Philippines is a tropical country and our hair is exposed to extreme heat from the sun.

The new Cream Silk with Advance Hair Reborn Technology and Moisture Lock Complex is customized with nutrients that permeate and nourish every hair strand to transform dry hair to beyond beautiful.  

Direction for use: After shampoo, massage through hair especially on ends. Rinse well after one minute. For best results, use every day.

What is my first impression on the product packaging?

I used the sample from Sample Room and it comes in a 40ml squeeze bottle. It’s so cute! I like the packaging because what you need to know about the product is there already in the product label. Indication, direction for use, ingredients, manufacturer, contact details, expiration and date of manufacturing.

What is my impression on the product when applied to hair?

When apply to hair, it does not feel greasy or warm. The truth is, I don’t like using hair care products that feel warm on my scalp.

Scent: 3 over 5. The scent is okay. It has a sweet fruity scent that is not overwhelming. The smell lasts for hours.

Shiny Hair: 3 over 5. Maybe if I use it longer, my rating would improve.

Less Dryness: 4 over 5. My hair is becoming less dry and since mine is chemically-treated it really rescued my hair.  

Soft and Smooth Hair: 4 over 5. It leaves my hair soft and smooth. I think I’m a fan now.

Over-all rating: I really like the product and I intend to use it for as long as I can. I will give it a 4 out of 5 rating. However, each hair type is different from the other. What works for me may not work for you.

***This review is based on my experience after using the product for five days.

WHAT MOTHERHOOD TAUGHT ME THAT MADE ME A BETTER INDIVIDUAL

To all mothers in every circumstance, including those who struggle- and all will- I say “Be peaceful. Believe in God and yourself. You are doing better than you think you are.” -Jeffrey Holland I grew up in an environment where women are empowered. My mom single-handedly raised us when my father died. I was only 6 that time, my younger brother at 4. Life was hard but I didn’t know that because my mother was able to conceal the ugly side of life. Fast forward to present and I am now a mother myself. My daughter will be turning 3 this May and so far, I’m still able to cope up with the hustle and bustle of motherhood. Wow! Life’s pretty amazing and chaotic with a toddler. Being a millennial mom, these are the things that I’ve learned and experienced that I want to share with you. If you are a mother yourself, I know you can relate with these. If you are expecting or planning to have kids in the future, these might give you an idea of what awaits you. #1. A baby i...

BDO Junior Savers Account ALERT!!!

As parents, we always want the best for our children. It’s their welfare that is our top most priority. We want to give them an improved life and a secured future. What better way to start or continue this dream is through savings. This is my desire to my daughter, to teach her early the importance of financial discipline. I want her to grow up knowing how to manage her resources especially on money. I was browsing my feed when I came across this advertisement from BDO Unibank. It offers a Junior Savers Account that you can open for as low as 100 Php. I got curious, opened the link and read further. I told my husband about it and he said maybe I should visit the bank one of these days. I remember telling him I will sure go and inquire myself about it. When I was a kid, my mom also opened a bank account for me similar to the Junior Savers. However, the bank closed, and I don’t know if my mom ever thought about checking the account. Or maybe she was able to withdraw the money...

TO MY AWESOME BROTHER: HAPPY TEACHER’S DAY

“One good teacher in a lifetime may sometimes change a delinquent into a solid citizen.” -Philip Wylie October 5th is considered as World Teachers Day as declared by the United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in 1994. As I was scrolling my feed, I saw a lot of greetings for teachers. It’s good to know how students pay gratitude to the people who provided them formal education. I think we are all teachers, we educate in any way. However, teaching as a profession is something that is for me a very noble and distinct career. If you are a teacher reading this, you have my great appreciation. Thank you for making a difference in the lives of your students. I still get teary-eyed whenever I recall how my younger brother, who is a teacher would tell me how hard it was to go to school where he was a teacher for three years. From our place, he needed to travel by his motorcycle going to Lekda, a far-flung area in Agusan del Norte. He’d cross a river an...
