Scalp Revival Rosemary Pre-Wash Scalp and Hair Oil
Article content
They say: A scalp replenishing oil formulated with rosemary, castor and tea tree oils to quench and soothe the scalp while also boosting shine.
We say: Suitable for most hair types (fine to thick and straight to wavy), our tester was excited to try this buzzy prewash treatment on her fine, colour-processed hair. Testing both options by leaving it on as an overnight treatment as well as using it as a 20-minute blast before shampooing, she found the results to be “excellent” both ways. Hair felt smoother and her scalp felt refreshed.

Restorative Body Cream
They say: A hydrating body cream that uses plant-based ingredients such as Shea butter, and jojoba and mandarin oils, to nourish and hydrate skin. The new-to-Canada cream is joined by an Energize Body Cleanser for a full-body experience.
We say: From the sleek packaging to the skin-smoothing formula, this body cream provides a gender-neutral, spa like treat at home. A little of the cream goes a long way, smoothing over skin nicely to reveal more hydrated skin with a non-greasy feel.
Alphascience
HA Booster Serum
They say: A facial serum featuring organic silicium and hyaluronic acid, along with vegetal taurine, to hydrate and smooth skin.
We say: Our tester, a diehard serum fan, subbed this one in for her go-to formula. One to two drops covered the face and neck nicely, providing skin with an instant drink. The serum played nice with other skin-care salves and, with use, she reports her skin appeared more plump and “youthful.”
