Product Review: Vitale Hair Growth Serum

Ok. Remember my post on this product? I bought it and put up a sort of initial review but never came back with a feedback. By request from (Stella of Ghlonghair.blogspot.com), I'm going to give my thoughts about this product. Check the initial review- Growth Aids Vitale Olive Oil 4-in-1 for its ingredients and what it promises.
Note: I used it till the last drop.

  • First, it did keep the new growth well moisturized. With the kind of sunshine here, moisturized hair can be a daunting task to achieve. However, when I applied it nightly, the new growth stayed soft and easy and in the morning, it made the hair easy to get through with the a medium tooth comb. 
  • The bottle- yes, I like the fact that it comes in an applicator bottle so I can get to the roots without a hassle! I even recycled it for another oil application. It's tip is very tinny, which controls the flow of the serum because it has a liquid consistency.
Dislikes

  • Didn't live up to its task of stimulating growth, which was the main reason for purchasing it. I didn't notice any growth spurt the whole time I used it. I was surprised considering the ingredients in it, which are supposed to aid growth. 
  • It's smell is not pleasant, much like pepper. There were days I wish I could use it as a sealant but the smell put me off.
  • Too watery; if you are not careful, you'll have it running down your back,  all over your forehead and face. That prevented me from using it outside wash days. I wash during shower time so am able to get rid of any spill over.
In general, if I'd say it won't be a necessity/stable  for me.

Placenta In Your Hair

Placenta or the popular brand, Placentyne leave in treatment has been with us for ages!  Keratin, which hair is made of, is a strong protein that can break down with sun exposure, wind, pollutants, daily maintenance, manipulation, heat tools, and chemical treatments like permanent color. This is where using protein treatments come in to help temporarily repair the hair strands. Protein treatments are used to add strength and resiliency to damaged hair by attaching hydrolyzed proteins directly to the hair follicle and hardening the cuticle layer. If there are holes in the hair cuticle, it will fill those holes or gaps while also placing a barrier around the hair shaft to lessen further damage. Most protein treatments are conditioning treatments. They can come be a deep conditioner, light, or reconstructor (heavy) (source:https://www.naturallycurly.com)  This placenta for hair acts as a protein reconstructor!

How To choose The Ordinary Vitamin C Serum

If you missed the post on the types of vitamin C serums carried by The Ordinary, then, just go through it and come back to this. Paula's Choice and The Ordinary seem to have a lot in common when it comes to formulations and I love that! Let's start with the highest form which is the L-ascorbic acid. This is found in the The Ordinary Vitamin C silicone and vitamin C Suspension 23% + HA Spheres 2%.   Much like our Vitamin C Suspension 23% + HA Spheres 2% formula, this product also offers a suspension but in light silicones for a smooth, non-gritty skin finish. Despite the very light forms of silicones used, silicones do impair dermal exposure to Vitamin C slightly but the additional (30%) concentration of Vitamin C helps compensate for this slight inefficiency. A very strong tingling but non-irritating sensation is expected during the first 1-2 weeks of use until the skin's tolerance to such high exposure is elevated. If desired, this formula can be diluted in a cream base pe...
