Why it's great: If you want to look like you came straight from a gorgeous day at the beach, TotalBeauty readers say this surf spray will give you "natural waves and texture that literally looks (and feels) like you just stepped out of the ocean." The surf spray contains hydrating seaweed and kelp extracts to give your beach-babe hair added moisture and a silky smooth feel. "You can go from a soft tousle to a total 'I just came from the beach' look," explains one TotalBeauty reader. "It also helps to hold your style in place making hairspray unnecessary." Paired with other bestseller Maison Martin Margiela Replica Beach Walk, you'll really have people convinced you simply emerge from the ocean every morning. #mermaidgoals
Why it's great: More than a few beauty junkies have cut their shampoo days in half and rely on this "fast-absorbing dry shampoo" to keep their hair as fresh looking as the first day they washed it. "I worked out this morning and used it on my sweaty hair and I swear it looks like I actually washed it," one TotalBeauty reader gushes. "It also feels really nice ... smells amazing, gets the job done and adds a bit of volume." Other users agree saying it's "unlike any other dry shampoo they've ever used" as it absorbs any and all grease without leaving behind a white residue. No wonder Sephora junkies are stocking up.
Why it's great: If you're going to splurge on a blow dryer, make it this one. One Sephora reviewer explains, "my hair is so soft and smooth after drying it with this blow dryer, and it easily cut my drying time down by 50 percent or more." Other reviewers chime in saying, combined with a round brush, the dryer gives them gorgeous volume and bounce all day, plus they love its "cheerful color."
The dryer uses nanoionic technology to help break up water (reducing drying time), while dispersing negative ions into your strands to keep them static- and frizz-free. "I must say I've gotten multiple compliments that my hair is really pretty and a couple people have even asked to touch my hair," one Sephora reviewer reflects. "I will say my hair is the smoothest and silkiest I've ever seen it." Build me up buttercup -- or the volume in my hair rather.
Why it's great: When celebrity stylist Jen Atkins comes out with a hair care line, you better believe beauty junkies everywhere are stocking up on all her must-haves. So it should come as no surprise that her Ouai Hair Oil is one of the top-selling products at Sephora. "After one use I can already tell this is my new favorite hair oil, (and maybe product) ever," declares one Sephora reviewer. "Being in cosmetology, I have tried tons of oils, and this one truly works. It is light and doesn't make hair greasy at all. I put it in my wet hair before bed and woke up with seriously shiny, soft, healthy-looking hair." Other users agree saying the gardenia-scented oil "hydrates colored strands and reduces frizz." Sephora trip anyone?
