HELPFUL FACTS FOR ALL OF US
(source: karmin.ca/)

• What is Titanium? Titanium is a lustrous metallic element found in igneous rocks and known for its strength, durability, light weight and high temperature stability.

• Why a Titanium Hair Straightener?Titanium offers many features and benefits in a hair styling tool. Titanium provides amazing durability under high heats and offers an even heat distribution. Scratch resistant and extremely durable, Titanium is a great benefit for a hair iron that will last you many years. When combined with ceramic, negative ions and tourmaline, Titanium works to enhance your hair's hydration and shine. Eliminate frizz, enhance shine, and improve the overall look of your hair. Your hair is left hydrated, soft and healthier. A top choice for professionals because of the amazing results on all hair types, lengths and styles.

• Isn't Ceramic Enough?NO! Traditional ceramic irons rely on heat alone which risks damage to the hair. Karmin relies on ionic and infrared juices, which provides a better, healthier method. More fabulous results - now without the risk of damage! Karmin high performance irons provide shinier, silkier, smoother and healthier hair than other ceramic irons. 

•  So Why are Negative Ions Important When Using a Hair Iron?Negative ions close the cuticle layer to create a smooth, silky hair surface and seal in the hair's natural moisture. This provides ultimate shine, color and moisture protection for hair. Negative ions also eliminate static electricity on the hair surface so hair is left silky and frizz-free! 

•  Why is Infrared Important When Using Flat Irons?Far infrared heat penetrates the hair to heat it gently from within. This creates a different type of heat that doesn't heat the hair. Instead, more heat is delivered directly to the hair shaft so hair is suppler and can be worked more quickly and easily. Because less heat is delivered to the surface, hair is not damaged.

MY TAKE: Negative Ions? Heard so much about Negative Ions and its benefits towards our body such as strengthening the functions of our autonomic nerves, reinforce collagen, improves the permeability of cell's prototype plasma membrane (in short, improves metabolism) and strengthens our immune system. I didn't know it can also be benefited towards our hair for a healthier crown of glory! How awesome :)

PACKAGING: It came in a white box with the pink hair straightener inside, 3 year manufacturer's warranty, instruction manual, product registration and holgram security seal.

PRICE: $129.95 + FREE SHIPPING! The price is great for the quality of the product. I had it for 2 weeks now and have been using it for straightening and curling my hair and it works great!

AVAILABLE AT: http://karmin.ca/karmin-envy.html Provided by: HAIR PRODUCTS PRO

QUALITY: Like I said, been using it for 2 weeks now and it works great, it doesn't pull my hair like the other straighteners out there that makes your hair get stuck to the side of the plate and it pulls! Also my hair doesn't smell like burnt when I use it. Hair looks so shiny and healthy afterwards.

Here is my hair before I ironed it. As you can see, my hair is straight but not pinned straight and looks frizzy.

Time to Iron it!!!

 One side done..

 Both sides done..

Now my hair looks a lot better!!!

OHYESS!! Hahah :)

Looking at these pictures makes me miss my long hair.. I recently got a haircut. :( We always regret it @ the end.)

Anyway, I can sport it both ways but it's not that long anymore. I miss my VERY LONG HAIR!! *CRIES*

Here using Karmin Professional Titanum Hair Straightener:

Pretty good in curling hair :)

I miss my old hair but time to move on....

Hope you all like this review!

Beauty Review: Hana Professional Flat Iron 1" from Misikko

MISIKKO HANA PROFESSIONAL FLAT IRON 1"

I received another package from Misikko and really it never disappoints! I played with the iron for a week before I made a review.

PACKAGING: Well it's no secret on how amazing the packaging is. Total wow-wers whenever I see the box all nicely packaged. And its pink!! PLUS points for me because I love Pink! The bows are gorgeous and they always have extra goodies inside :)

STORE: Missiko is an online store which has a lot of available hair tools from flat iron, blow drier, and curling iron. They offer FREE SHIPPING. They also have other stuff available. It's worth checking it on especially since they are always having discounts on their products.

PRODUCT: I mostly own 1" flat irons. It's thin and easy to play with. It easy to create nice curls using  a 1' flat iron and I shall show you how my curls turn out using this product.

Here is the description from  their website: http://www.misikko.com/hana-professional-flat-iron.html

PRICE: Like I said in my previous reviews of flat iron, it's always good to spend more on a quality like flat iron that buy a cheap one that doesn't like for a long time. You'll save more that way and it guarantees better hair days :)

CURL USING FLAT IRON: Unlike my last review of the other Hana Flat Iron1.5", this curling iron (Hana Professional Flat Iron 1") creates more defined curls. The other one is more on big, loose curls.

Here's my hair after I toweled dry it. Messy hair.

Then I apply Hana Shine Shield Thermal Protectant all over my damp hair. Then I blow dry my hair upside down. OMGGG I love this Hana Shine Shield Thermal Protectant. It just makes my hair so smooth and soft. So manageable that when I wake up in them morning, my hair just feels oh so smooth :) It also smells soooo good!

See the difference? Super shiny and looks oh so soft! This is my hair without ironing it. If I do use flat iron to straighten it more, my hair will just look flat so I rarely straighten it.

Here it is half curled using the Hana Professional Flat Iron 1".  As you can see, the 1" curls are more defined.

I kind of made the other side more loose by having the flat iron curled to my hair for only 4 seconds instead of 6-7 seconds like the other side of my hair to have loose curls.

Then I ran my fingers through the curls to separate them and make them look more natural.

Voila!! Hello Sexy curls! Hahaha!

And now for some more self portrait photos just because my hair looks awesome! Hahaha!

OVERALL: It's a great flat iron to have because not only you can use it to straighten your hair, it also creates sexy curls :)

I give it 5/5 stars!

Hope you like this review!

Beauty Review: Hana Titanium Flat Iron 1.5"

MISIKKO HANA TITANUM FLAT IRON 1.5"

Hello Everyone!! Another Beauty Review!! Hooray!! I received this package almost 2 weeks now. Was just testing and playing with it before I give it a full review.

PACKAGING: Tell you what! Misikko has the best packaging ever! I know even if sometimes we don't admit, but we know we are suckers for cute packaging -- its all about the presentation and Misikko won it hands down! Just look at everything -- all organized and such beautiful, carefully wrapped products! I am blown away!

STORE: Misikko is an online store. Here is the website: http://www.misikko.com. 

They have every hair tools you can think of. From flat iron, curling iron to blow dryer. They also have some beauty stuff like nail polish and more. Best of all, they offer FREE SAME DAY SHIPPING!!!!! Who doesn't want that? :)

PRODUCT: This is my first 1.5" flat iron. I usually use 1" only because my hair is thin and don't need a wide one plus I kind of think it's bulky. Maybe I'm not just used to it. I like how thin the plates look though and how it doesn't pull my hair when I'm using it. It heats up really fast and you can even raise the temperature higher if your hair is thick.

Here are some description from their website: http://www.misikko.com

For more info about this product, here is the direct link: http://www.misikko.com/hana-titanium-flat-iron.html

PRICE: 

Reasonable price for a nice product. It's very worth it. I have bought a $200 flat iron before and it lasted me 5 years. If you want a good one, it's better to invest in a high quality that you know will lasts long. Right now, this particular flat iron is on sale :)

CURLING USING FLAT IRON: Ok, at first I don't know how I'll be able to curl my hair using a 1.5" flat iron. I thought it will be too thick to have my hair wrap around the plates. But instead, I just flipped my hair outwards using the flat iron and viola, it curled!

Like I said, I love how it doesn't pull my hair and that it curls right away. Only 5 seconds of it on my hair and it got wavy. Beautiful soft curls!

OVERALL: I totally recommend this flat iron! It does what its promised and I'm very happy with it. Not only it straightens your hair, but see, it also creates nice soft curls.

Hmmmm.. what do you think? :)
