OSiS Blow & Go Smooth Express Blow-Dry Spray


Osis Blow & Go Smooth Express Blow Dry Spray is a luxurious blow drying spray which reduces blow drying time and combats frizz. The essential styling aid for sleek and super smooth styles, this blow-dry spray has a non-sticky formula which dramatically reduces drying time whilst smoothing the hair and controlling frizz and fly away hair.

Blow & Go Smooth is very similar to Blow & Go Thick, which I very recently reviewed, minus the volume. What you get instead is smooth, shiny and sleek hair - just as if you used a flat iron! As for Blow & Go Thick, this spray does reduce blow drying time from maybe five minute - it usually barely takes 10 minute to dry my hair.

I was actually very impressed with the results after using this spray, even though I am not dealing with frizzy hair. If you are, I would definitely recommend Blow & Go Sleek to transform frizzy, unruly hair into sleek, elegant style!

OSiS Blow & Go Smooth Express Blow-Dry Spray is available for $21.00.

OSiS Blow & Go Thick Express Blow-Dry Spray


OSiS Blow & Go Thick Express Blow Dry Spray adds voluptuous volume to the hair without any sticky residue and is perfect for fine, limp hair which needs rejuvenating with extra body. It also delivers light styling control and adds a luminous shine to the hair. 

I must say I was really impressed with the results I got from using OSiS Glamour Queen H20-Free Volumizing Hairspray and I was eager to see how the Blow & Thick spray would compare. I was especially sceptical about the fact that it is supposed to reduce blow drying time, since I have never used a product with such claim before!

While this spray does reduce blow drying time from maybe five minute - it usually barely takes 10 minute to dry my hair - I can't say I was especially impressed with the volumizing results - my hair felt a bit thicker, but even if I made sure to target the roots, the results were not comparable to the Glamour Queen hairspray. I also used the product very sparingly, but my hair felt a bit dry the day after.

OSiS Blow & Go Thick Express Blow-Dry Spray is available for $21.00.

OSiS Glamour Queen H20-Free Volumizing Hairspray


Hi ladies! Aren't we all fond of volumizing hair products? Even though I am not a huge fan of putting styling products in my hair regularly, I enjoy going all out for a special night out or event, and OSiS Glamour Queen is a really great product for this!

I have never been a fan of hairsprays because I hate how sticky most of them leave my hair, so I try to use them very sparingly. Glamour Queen features a an innovative trigger design which makes it easier to precisely target the roots, where the maximum effect is needed. I only need a few bursts of product to obtain the desired results on my normally flat hair - natural, clean and flexible volume!

My hair never feels wet or sticky, thanks to the fast drying water-free formula, even when heavily used! I also like how easy it is to brush out since I absolutely hate the dirty sensation of having products in my hair until the next time I shower.

OSiS Glamour Queen H20-Free Volumizing Hairspray is available for $20.00.

OSiS Thrill Fibre Shine Texture Gum


Osis Thrill Fibre Gum is a bendable and mouldable styling gum ideal for all hair types. It is not a product I would regularly use on my shoulder-length hair, but even if I am sure it would work amazingly well on short or medium choppy hair, I did enjoy how easy  it was to give my layers that tousled look.

Featuring Mega Elastic Fibre technology, this product delivers strong texture control with exceptional shine. Perfect for creating mesmerising separation, texture and definition, this professional styling gum has a super strong hold! I like that Thrill Fibre Gum doesn’t over burden the hair and allows for natural movement with a natural glossy shine. Another bonus: this gum can be used on dry or damp hair to create an array of textured looks.

OSiS Thrill Fibre Shine Texture Gum is available for $23.50.

OSiS Dust It Mattifying Powder


Hi ladies! Have you used a texturizing hair powder before? Not me, and I must admit I was quite excited, but also a bit scared, when I was given the opportunity to try OSiS Dust It Mattifying Powder, since I had no idea how to properly use it! After a bit of research, I learned that this powder could be used for both volume and hold, and that there was a specific way to use it, depending on the result you were after.

I am not a big fan of hairpsray so I did not really try using this powder for hold, although all you have to do is smooth it over desired area to keep your hair in place. What I was truly after is volume, and I was blown away at how well this product performed! 

Be sure to use the tiniest quantity of this lighweight powder if you don't want to risk making a big sticky and powdery mess, and also try to concentrate the product at your roots as much as possible for maximum volume. I find it works better if you pour a bit of the product into your palms first, instead of sprinkling it directly on your hair, since the packaging is a bit weird - in my opinion, there are too many holes and they are a bit too big, which makes it hard to control how much product you dispense.

I find this product requires a bit of getting used to since I must admit I really did not like it at first - I used too much of it and I hated the way it made my hair feel! Since it is a mattifying powder, of course it will remove some of the natural shine of your hair for that messy bed head look, but what I really did not like is that it left my hair sticky and really dry, and it was extremely hard to wash out - which I guess was expected since OSiS Dust It Mattifying Powder is a long lasting product, which is supposed to last 24 hours.

OSiS Dust It Mattifying Powder is quite a unique product that I personally prefer to use only on special occasion, but I really think it is a must, and if used carefully, it will not fail you! This product is available for $23.50.

OSiS Refresh Dust Bodyfying Dry Shampoo


Dry shampoos are truly a girl's best friends, aren't they? I know they have helped me a lot thorough my Project No 'Poo and I think they really are a lifesaver, especially if you have high maintenance colored hair like me - red hair is the worst! Having never tried any product from OSiS before, I was thrilled to be able to test their Refresh Dust Bodyfying Dry Shampoo, especially since I kept hearing great things about it!

I absolutely love that Refresh Dust is a sprayable powder instead of a powder that you have to actually pat into your hair - these products usually make a terrible mess, and they do take quite some time to achieve the same result as sprayable dry shampoos. Refresh Dust goes on white, but since the powder is really fine, it does not leave grey residues if you make sure to properly blend it in and brush it out - even in my dark hair! Also, it absolutely does not feel chalky or powdery, as some other dry shampoos do.

before and after

The last time I used Refresh Dust was after coming home from a flight to Toronto when my hair looked particularly flat, lifeless and well, greasy, and I was amazed at how quickly the product infused amazing volume to my hair and absorbed oil. It really looked like I was fresh from the shower, which is something I have never experienced with any other dry shampoo before! I am constantly blown after each use of this product.

I thought I had found my HG dry shampoos in Batiste and Göt2b Rockin' It Dry Shampoo, but Refresh Dust definitely beats them both! OSiS Refresh Dust Bodyfying Dry Shampoo is available for $23.50.
