Turquoise sea, swimming pool and jacuzzi, comforting sun, warm sand… These sweet words do a lot of good for our morale, but sometimes prove to be formidable for our hair. On your vacation checklist, have you remembered to note hair care products adapted to your hair to take care of it all summer long? In order to make the most of your vacation, while sporting mermaid hair, in this article we reveal the essentials to take with you everywhere.
Dry oil to enhance and preserve your hair
You probably know the adage “Prevention is better than cure” and it is perfect for caring for our hair! To keep your hair supple and soft, you must first protect it. Centifolia Sublimating Dry Oil is ideal for this. Throughout the summer, you can apply it to your lengths and admire the shine it brings while keeping your hair supple, thanks to its non-greasy effect. You can particularly emphasize your lengths before diving into sea water, or into chlorinated water. Since water and oil are not miscible, Dry Oil will create a barrier between your hair and external elements, which will help maintain the hair’s natural protection. Good to know: it will also help preserve your color if you have colored or highlighted hair.
Nutritional cream shampoo to avoid dryness
In summer, hair can become particularly dry and damaged. Washing your hair can be more damaging if done too often or with harsh hair products. This is why Centifolia developed the Nutrition range. Designed for hair that lacks nutrition, the Cream Shampoo with its ultra-gentle formula will give you a feeling of comfort by nourishing the hair from roots to ends. The plant complex it contains will help restructure the hair fiber and will help protect it from external aggressions thanks to its antioxidant properties. It improves shine, softness and volume of hair. (All you need to know about hair nutrition and hydration)
The Extreme Richness Mask to absorb UV rays
To guarantee full suppleness to your hair, you can complete your shampoo with the Centifolia Extreme Richness Mask. This ultra-rich Mask will perfectly complement the action of the Nutrition Shampoo to offer your hair a concentrate of active ingredients which will deeply nourish your hair, prevent breakage, and the unwanted “straw” effect. Its use is particularly suitable before exposure to the sun. Indeed, the Mask contains an organic photoprotective Buriti active ingredient. Rich in carotenoids and with antioxidant properties, this oil protects against sun damage by absorbing part of UV rays and trapping free radicals.
To increase the effects of the Mask, we advise you to apply it before your shampoo and leave it on for 5 minutes for an express treatment, or all night to nourish deeply. Tip: don’t hesitate to shampoo twice after leaving the mask on to rinse your hair well and avoid greasy hair when drying. You can also use it as a leave-in treatment by applying a very small amount of product only to your ends.
Dry shampoo for practicality
Dry Shampoo is an excellent alternative to classic shampoos. Economical and practical, its powder format allows you to take it everywhere with you, it’s a great summer hair product to slip into your suitcase! The holidays are the ideal time to space out your shampoos and let your scalp rest. In fact, washing too frequently can dry out your scalp and lead to dull, dry, or even brittle hair. Centifolia Leave-In Dry Shampoo will allow you to wash your hair less often and touch up if necessary, without the need for water (why and how to use dry shampoo?). It’s the perfect product if you’re going hiking or camping, but also to quickly add volume and freshness to your hair before an evening or a date.
Leave-in detangling lotion to make styling easier
With wind, sand and water, your hair can tend to get tangled and brushing can therefore be complex (our tips and advice for brushing your hair well). In order to style your hair more easily all summer long, you can apply Centifolia Detangling Lotion to all of your dry or damp hair and brush starting at the lengths and working your way up little by little to the roots. Practical, its mist pump allows uniform and ultra-light dispersion of the product over the entire hair. This mist is used without rinsing and is therefore perfect to take with you during your beach session! Suitable for children from 3 years old, the Detangling Lotion can, without fail, prevent your children from long complaints during styling sessions!
Think about it for more ecology!
If you are going on vacation, you surely know that taking several products with you is not always possible, for logistical reasons. Lack of space in the suitcase or formats imposed for plane transport, your favorite products are not always suitable for travel… Rather than favoring miniatures (and consequently, a lot of plastic for little product!), you can opt for refillable kits. Spray, pump or classic format, you can find what you’re looking for and fill these little reusable cases with your favorite products, practical to take with you everywhere!
