Have you heard of Living Proof? It is a company the brought the world
No Frizz - a revolutionary anti-frizz product that changed the beauty world. Their products are based on technology from the research labs of Drs. Dan Anderson and Bob Langer at MIT. Now their team of scientists have invented a new material - Poly Beta Amino Ester-1 used in their latest product,
Full Thickening Cream.
Living Proof really lives up to it's name. I recently tried their
Full Thickening Cream. This new lighweight formula actually gives your hair a natural fullness, without leaving it brittle or stiff as most products do to your hair.
This is how to use it: Wash and comb your hair. Dispense a nickel-sized amount of Full and rub it through your hands. Spread it evenly through your hair (avoiding the roots). Make sure to work it down to the ends of your hair with your fingers or a comb. If you hair is really long, use a little extra. You may have to experiment a few times to get the right amount.
Blow-dry and style your hair as you normally would. It is recommended that you use a round brush and dry your hair in sections. (see their
website for more instructions)
This product can also be used in conjunction with Living Proof's No Frizz. You can learn more about how to use their products on the Facebook fan page too! I enjoyed reading the posts and learning tips.
Your hair will feel soft and full but it is noted that as the day goes on, your hair will be softer and have a great feel. After using Full, my hair lasted 2 days! By the third day, my hair felt soft and full but I decided to wash it and start all over. I used a little too much the second time, but practice makes perfect and now I know the right amount that works for me.
Here are the results of my hair:
I followed the instructions and finished up by using velcro rollers for 5 minutes, flat ironing my ends, adding a very small amount of anti-frizz serum, and using a touch of hairspray. The fullness in my hair lasted for 2.5 days! I really didn't spend that much time on my hair and considering that I didn't have to style it the next day, I was thrilled.
I really look forward to trying out their other products. You can view them all or buy them at Sephora, QVC, and Livingproof.com.
