The Federation of Beauty Businesses (PHEBEA “) recently unveiled the second edition of its practical guide dedicated to biodiversity. Specifically designed to support small and medium-sized businesses involved in the cosmetics sector, this initiative aims to accelerate the consideration of living things in the sector’s practices and confirms this.
After a first edition published in 2021, this new guide is more focused on operational support to help SMEs (82% of FEBEA member companies) to structure and deploy a biodiversity strategy adapted to their realities.
« Biodiversity is essential for the cosmetics sector because a large part of the ingredients used in formulas depends closely on the quality and availability of natural elements. This close relationship makes companies particularly exposed to the erosion of biodiversity, reinforcing the need to act to secure supplies, limit impacts and increase the resilience of the sector », Explains FEBEA in a press release.
The guide proposes: an approach going from diagnosis (including analysis of dual materiality) to implementation; concrete action levers on supplies, packaging and production sites; business testimonials; a panorama of accessible tools to facilitate the move to action.
Furthermore, the guide opens new perspectives by addressing the challenges of regenerative cosmetics, which goes beyond the sole preservation of biodiversity to integrate approaches to sustainability and resilience.
« The cosmetics industry is working more every day to reduce its impacts and develop a positive contribution to biodiversity. Preserving biodiversity for the cosmetics sector is not only a responsibility but also a strategic imperative for the future. We are making this guide available to increase awareness among everyone and small and medium-sized businesses in particular. “, underlines Emmanuel Guichard, general delegate of FEBEA.
The cosmetics sector is recognized by public authorities as one of the most advanced sectors in terms of biodiversity. FEBEA was thus designated as a “Partner committed to nature” by the French Office for Biodiversity in 2025 and is now considering the “co-construction” of a roadmap for the cosmetics sector on biodiversity.
In another area, FEBEA also announced in April the publication of a practical guide intended for entrepreneurs who wish to launch into cosmetics.
Wavy, curly, and coily hair is prone to breakage, dryness, and tangling.
Curl patterns can change due to age, hormonal changes, chemical treatments, hair damage, or using products that aren’t formulated for curly hair.
To bring your curls back, consistently use OLAPLEX products that help repair bonds, reduce frizz, and restore moisture to hair damaged by thermal styling, chemical treatments, or sulfate-based products.
Limit thermal styling, sleep on silk pillowcases, and choose haircuts tailored to your curl pattern to protect and enhance your natural texture.

Want to learn how OLAPLEX® can help bring your curls and waves back to life? Maybe you have gone through years of thermal styling, straightening those beautiful, curly, wavy tresses into a smooth, sleek, straight look. No matter your true curly hair type, an OLAPLEX hair routine can help repair your damaged curls and waves to bring them back to their natural definition, shape, and shine.
Can Your Curl Pattern Change?
If you’ve noticed that your curls or waves look a little different, it’s not just in your head—it’s possible for your curl pattern to change over time. Your curl pattern may change due to:
Hormonal changes or aging: When your body goes through hormonal changes during pregnancy, this may cause your curl pattern to change. Additionally, as you get older, your body produces less sebum, which may make your hair drier and more prone to breakage.
Hair length: If you grow your hair longer, this can stretch out your curls and might make them look less defined or looser.
Chemical treatments: Bleach, dye, or straightening/perming treatments can alter the structure of your hair, forming a different curl pattern.
Mechanical damage: Over-brushing your hair may alter your curl pattern. Certain high-tension hairstyles, like tight buns or ponytails, can also change your curl pattern.
Heat damage: Using hot tools like blow dryers or flat irons may destroy hair bonds, which can loosen your curl pattern.
Using the wrong hair products: Products that are too heavy (like thick, oily, buttery, or waxy formulas) can weigh down your curls. Certain ingredients in haircare products, like sodium lauryl sulfate, can dry out curly hair and make it lose definition.
Although curl patterns may vary over time, most curly and wavy hair types generally fit into three main categories. Understanding your specific hair type can help you give your curls the care they deserve.
Types of Curls
There are several types of curly hair:
Type 2: Wavy Hair – Fine waves with a slight “S” bend to thick, coarse waves that begin to form loose curls.
Type 3: Curly Hair – Well-defined curls, from springy spirals to tight, dense corkscrew shapes.
Type 4: Coily Hair – Very tight curls with distinct coil or zigzag patterns, ranging from well-defined to very small, with little to no natural definition.
So, which curl type are you? There’s also a chance you may have multiple types (hair types can be mixed).
How to Treat Your Hair Type with an OLAPLEX Curl Routine
Whatever you have, caring for your natural hair type is key to maintaining healthy, beautiful hair.
How to Repair and Define Wavy Hair
Wavy hair is susceptible to frizziness. Hair types on the finer side can also lack volume. Bring oomph back to your waves with a weekly OLAPLEX routine like this:
Dampen hair by spraying OLAPLEX Nº.0 Intensive Bond Building Hair Treatment on dry hair. Make sure you distribute it evenly from the roots to the ends. Allow it to process for 10 minutes.
Apply OLAPLEX N°.3PLUS Complete Repair Treatment evenly on wet hair. Let it sit for 3 minutes.
Wash out with SLS & SLES-free Nº.4 CURL Bond Shaper™ Hydrating Curl Shampoo, which gently cleanses, smooths, hydrates, and defines waves. Follow with Nº.5 CURL Bond Shaper™ Hydrating Curl Conditioner to deeply nourish your waves.
After showering, apply OLAPLEX Nº.5 Leave-In Moisturize & Mend Leave-In Conditioner to damp hair to hydrate, seal split ends, and protect. Do not rinse.
Define your waves with OLAPLEX Nº.10 Bond Shaper® Curl Defining Gel. Apply a small amount of clean hair in sections, scrunching in an upward motion.
Use OLAPLEX Nº.7 Bonding Oil on damp hair to protect against heat and boost shine.
Between wash days, extend your style and add volume to your waves by spraying OLAPLEX Nº.4D Clean Volume Detox Dry Shampoo on dry hair, holding the bottle 6 to 10 inches away from the roots. Wait 30 seconds and massage into the scalp.
How to Repair and Define Curly and Coily Hair
Both coily and curly hair types tend to frizz, show breakage, shrink, and lose moisture easily. Often, their curl patterns make it more difficult for sebum to travel down the hair shaft, resulting in dryness. Getting perms, using chemical texturizers, straightening out curls, and using sulfate-containing products all contribute to dryness and breakage.
If you’re experiencing these issues with your curls or coils, don’t worry! An OLAPLEX routine can help you bounce back. Here’s how:
Start by spraying Nº.0 on dry hair. Distribute the spray evenly from root to tip. Hair should be damp, not soaked. DO NOT RINSE. Let it process for 10 minutes.
Apply Nº.3PLUS over Nº.0, combing through as needed. Leave No.3PLUS on for 3 minutes, then rinse.
Wash out with SLS- and SLES-free shampoo and conditioners that are formulated for curly hair, like Nº.4 CURL Bond Shaper™ Hydrating Curl Shampoo. This shampoo gently cleanses, smooths frizz, and boosts curl definition. Follow with Nº.5 CURL Bond Shaper™ Hydrating Curl Conditioner to deeply nourish your curls.
For immediate moisture, apply Nº.5 Leave-In Moisturize & Mend Leave-In Conditioner to damp hair after showering. For finer curls/waves, begin with a single pump. For medium to coarse hair, begin with 2 pumps. Do not rinse.
Follow up with stylers. Use OLAPLEX Nº.6 Bond Smoother® to control frizz for up to 72 hours. Apply a single pump to clean damp hair.
Lock in moisture with OLAPLEX Nº.7 Bonding Oil™. Apply it to wet hair.
For even more defined curls, distribute a small amount of Nº.10 and scrunch upward.
More Tips for Restoring Curly, Wavy, and Coily Hair
Limit thermal styling. It’s recommended you use a diffuser on low heat and speed. A diffuser dries hair while limiting heat damage and enhancing your curl pattern. Avoid touching the curls or waves until dry.
Go to bed with a silk/satin pillowcase and scrunchie. This can help keep hair from tangling and minimize damage as you go to bed with a silk/satin pillowcase, bonnet, scarf, or scrunchie.
Schedule regular trims. Damaged ends can weigh curls down and distort their pattern. Split ends that aren’t cut off can also fray upward and cause more breakage. This can make curls look uneven—your hair might be defined toward the root, but straight or frizzy at the ends. Routine trims remove those weakened ends for more consistent and polished curls.
Get the right haircut. Some hairstyles, like layers, long bobs, or shags, can enhance your hair by adding definition. Connect with your stylist to help find the right haircut for your goals, hair type, and texture.
Treat your hair with moisturizing masks. Curly hair is prone to dryness, making a moisturizing mask essential for curl restoration. Apply OLAPLEX Weightless Nourishing Mask (for fine to medium hair) or OLAPLEX Rich Hydration Mask (for dry or medium-to-coarse hair) once a week in place of conditioner. Leave it on for 3-5 minutes, then rinse.

If you already love the original UVAIR SPF (and honestly, I really do), then this launch is a very exciting one. The new La Roche-Posay Anthelios UVAIR Serum Sunscreen SPF50+ Tinted version keeps everything that made the original such a standout, but adds that extra bit of complexion-enhancing coverage.
This is one of those products that sits right in that sweet spot between skincare and makeup, and I think it’s going to be very popular.
What is La Roche-Posay Anthelios UVAIR Serum Sunscreen SPF50+ Tinted?
What is La Roche-Posay Anthelios UVAIR Serum Sunscreen SPF50+ Tinted?
This is a lightweight daily sunscreen with SPF50+ protection, now available in three tinted shades designed to give a sheer, skin-perfecting finish.
It’s essentially a tinted version of the original UVAIR serum sunscreen, but with a slightly more creamy texture and a soft-focus tint.
Tinted vs Original: What’s the Difference?
Here’s a quick breakdown:
Original UVAIR SPF
More fluid / serum-like
Completely invisible
Best for layering under makeup
Tinted UVAIR SPF
Slightly creamier
Sheer coverage
Satin skin-perfecting finish
Can replace light makeup
They are very similar formulas and so it really just comes down to whether you want coverage.
Shades Available
There are three shades:
Light (the one I have)
Medium
Deep
I have been using Light, and it works really beautifully with my skin tone. What I really like is that it doesn’t pull overly warm or orangey, which can often be the case with tinted SPFs. It’s quite neutral and just melts into the skin.

Texture & Application
The texture is slightly different to the original.
The original UVAIR is more fluid and serum-like
The tinted version feels a touch creamier and a bit more structured
It still feels very lightweight, but it holds its shape a little more when you dispense it, which actually makes it really easy to apply.
Speaking of application, the new packaging is great. It has that slightly chubby, rounded design with a nozzle that makes dispensing neat and controlled.
La Roche-Posay Anthelios UVAIR Serum Sunscreen SPF50+ Tinted Packaging
Finish & Coverage
This really surprised me. A lot of tinted SPFs lean quite dewy, but this one is much more of a natural satin finish. It’s not flat, but it’s definitely not shiny either andit almost sets itself on the skin.
The coverage is sheer but skin-perfecting. It just evens everything out in a really effortless way.
Blends incredibly easily
Doesn’t cling or gather
No pilling over skincare
Feels seamless on the skin
It’s one of those products that makes your skin look like your skin, but better.
Before & After Photos
La Roche-Posay Anthelios UVAIR Serum Sunscreen SPF50+ Tinted Light – Before PhotoLa Roche-Posay Anthelios UVAIR Serum Sunscreen SPF50+ Tinted Light – After Photo (shade Light)
Can You Use This Instead of Foundation?
Yes, and this is where I think it really shines. Because it isn’t overly dewy, you can actually apply a proper amount (which is key for SPF protection) without it feeling heavy.
You could:
Wear it on its own
Add concealer for extra coverage
Or layer a small amount of foundation on top
I actually think it works brilliantly as a base, you just need less of everything else.
SPF Application (Important)
One of the biggest issues with SPF in makeup is that people don’t apply enough.
Because this has:
A lightweight feel
A non-greasy finish
No excessive glow
…it’s much easier to apply the correct amount without it feeling too much.
That’s a big win.
When to Choose Tinted vs Untinted
Go for the tinted version if:
You want a quick, one-step morning routine
You like light coverage
You prefer a more perfected finish without makeup
Stick with the original if:
You want something completely invisible
You wear fuller coverage foundation
You prefer a more traditional SPF step
Final Thoughts
This is a really elegant formula. It’s easy to use, flattering on the skin, and actually practical in terms of getting your SPF dose in, which is not always the case with tinted products.
If you already love the original UVAIR (review here), I think this is a very easy addition to your routine. And if you’ve been looking for a tinted SPF that doesn’t feel heavy, greasy, or overly glowy, this is definitely one to check out.

FAQs La Roche-Posay Anthelios UVAIR Serum Sunscreen SPF50+ Tinted Review
Is La Roche-Posay UVAIR Tinted good for oily skin?
I think this is a great one for oily skin as it has a very balanced finish that isn’t too dry or too oily.
Does it provide enough coverage to replace foundation?
Does the tinted SPF go orange?
In the Light shade, I find you get a great neutral result and it doesn’t go too warm or orangey.
Can you reapply it over makeup?
I think you can definitely gently top up with this during the day. You might want to add a bit more bronze or blush over the top, but I think this will work for application. If you want something lighter, you might prefer a mist. I am currently loving the Nip+Fab Peptide Fix SPF Spray*.

We’ve both had a very busy week. While you enjoyed the pageantry of your American state visit, red carpets, garden parties, and carefully staged moments of compassion, I stood outside the White House with a chair reserved for you – waiting. Not as a spectacle. Not as a stunt. But as a survivor asking to be seen.
I prepared that moment with care. I studied the traditions you value – Darjeeling tea, cucumber sandwiches, the details that matter in your world. In mine, what matters is this: You didn’t show up.
Your visit celebrated 250 years of America’s history. I watched as you stepped onto American soil, greeted with flower bouquets as the red carpets rolled out for you. I hoped you had heard about my efforts.
While you met President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania attending cultural engagements, mingling with those who sit in power, I amplified unheard voices, preserving stories, standing with people who have nothing, who have been ignored for too long. You missed the opportunity to be a king who could’ve been remembered as the one who stood alongside us in this pivotal moment where abuses of power are coming to light.
Is it just royal power that needs to receive glory, compliments, and a standing ovation from Congress and the government that continues to fail Epstein Survivors who have cried in silence? I went to Washington hoping we could meet for a few minutes. Is it just royal power that needs front-page news all week, with perfectly staged photo ops while I sit in the rain, my feet covered in mud? Survivors who pushed this story into the mainstream are cast in the shadow of these moments of civility and unity.
I met Jeffrey Epstein through my friend Lisa Phillips. I was offered a scholarship to study at the School of Visual Arts. Jeffrey Epstein called himself a great philanthropist and he told me, “you never have to see me again”. I had no idea I was walking into the den of Hell for two years, leading to a lifetime of nightmares.
I was abused, physically, mentally, and spiritually. I blamed myself all these years. And now, the world continues to blame survivors like myself by telling me I was over the age and volunteered to go back over the course of two years. I was vulnerable – and systemically denied an education due to my immigration status. Jeffrey Epstein used all of my weaknesses to control me, and I was trapped in no time.
“With the acquisition of 100% of Asquan Group, we are bringing together two highly complementary companies, both in the breadth of their product portfolios and the diversity of their customer bases,” Priscille Allais told Premium Beauty News.
A unique premium packaging offering
The merger, the financial terms of which have not been disclosed, was completed with the support of [Weinberg Capital Partners, which acquired Cosmogen at the end of 2024->https://www.premiumbeautynews.com/en/weinberg-capital-partners-acquires,24927]. It is part of Cosmogen’s strategy to accelerate growth and position itself as a leading global player.
“Asquan offers a broader range of airless solutions, as well as lip glosses, mascaras in pump bottles, and jars, compared to Cosmogen. It also provides a standard packaging range that is particularly popular with brands in the mass and masstige segments, alongside the capability to develop high-quality custom packaging. The breadth of its catalog supports a true one-stop-shop approach. Cosmogen, for its part, is more specialized in applicators, with a stronger positioning in the premium and luxury segments. In practice, we have virtually no overlap in our client bases. This merger will enable us to offer our clients a significantly expanded product range,” continues Priscille Allais.
The new entity brings together nearly 80 employees and generates consolidated revenue of USD 50 millionwith operations across Europe, the United States, Asia and the Middle East. Cosmogen&Asquan Group’s client portfolio, which includes LVMH, L’Oréal, Clarins, Caudalie, Puig, Shiseido, Westman Atelier, Huda Beauty, Kayali and Martine, reflects both the diversity of the brand segments it serves and the strength of its international footprint.
“This transaction strengthens our ability to support our clients while preserving their trust, through the constant attention we give them and an uncompromising level of service. The scale we are reaching today is a key lever: it strengthens our industrial footprint, reinforces our expertise and expands our range of solutions. This dynamic primarily benefits our clients and amplifies what has always been our strength,” explains Henri Tinchant, COO of Cosmogen&Asquan Group.
Together, Cosmogen and Asquan on the market, spanning skincare, haircare, makeup and fragrance, combining global solutions with bespoke developments.
“This operation enables us today to become a leading global partner for brands that are themselves global, while further strengthening our environmental and social commitments. I look forward to working closely with Henri Tinchant, whose unique industry experience will be a key asset for the Group,” added Priscille Allais, CEO of Cosmogen&Asquan Group.
A “fabless” model
Beyond the product offering, this merger also reaffirms the agile, fabless model that has driven the success of both companies so far.
Cosmogen&Asquan Group will thus rely on a robust international industrial network combined with strong innovation capabilities, supported by patents, bespoke developments and strategic sourcing.
“We obviously considered bringing manufacturing in-house. But we prefer to remain focused on our expertise: development and innovation,” said Priscille Allais.
For the head of Cosmogen&Asquan Group, this strategic sourcing capability from Asian suppliers with unique expertise makes it possible to combine creativity, performance and speed of execution.
Even with the fanciest hot tool, the key to a glorious blowout starts with prep, prep, and more prep. Always start with clean, detangled, and damp hair with a bit of leave-in conditioner, advises New York City-based hairstylist Takisha Sturdivant-Drew. “Start at the root and work your way down to the ends without putting too much heat or tension on the hair,” Sturdivant-Drew explains.
Volume is even easier to achieve, especially for straight or wavy textures. “Twist the dryer as you go in a circular motion to add volume if that’s what you are looking for,” says Sturdivant-Drew. If your hair is on the curly or coily side and you’re going for a sleek look, you can follow up with a flatiron or brush it out with the heat off. “If you want it straight, you should use the blow-dryer brush and, right under it, use another brush to smooth those kinky strands all the way out,” she says.
How do I minimize heat damage from a hair-dryer brush?
To minimize the risk of heat damage, opt for a blow-dryer brush that features several temperature settings, so you can better moderate the amount of heat your hair is undergoing. Not all hair types call for the same heat level, so if you’re getting acquainted with a new blow-dryer brush, pay attention to how your hair reacts to different temperature settings as you become more familiar with the tool.
Another tried-and-true defense mechanism is to prep your blowout with a heat protectant. Cosmetic chemist Ginger King tells Allure, “If you’re using heat styler or any heat products directly on hair, using a heat protectant, usually made with meadowfoam seed oil, light polymers, or even silicone, can help to minimize damage as they can form a coating on hair.” But the best way to fend off heat damage is to not overuse heat on your hair—plain and simple.
Are hair-dryer brushes easier to use than traditional hair-dryers?
Choosing a new hair tool is a matter of personal preference, but shoppers and professional hairstylists alike vouch for the ease of use of hair-dryer brushes. “Blow-dry brushes are so incredibly user-friendly—you can achieve a great blow-dry at home without needing pro-level skills. They take about half the time compared to juggling a dryer and a round brush,” says Baker.
Additionally, if you have pain or limited mobility in your hands or arms, a hair-dryer brush is an excellent alternative to a traditional blow-dryer. “Because they’re easier to maneuver, you’re less likely to tire out your arms or need a second round of styling with a flat iron or curling iron,” says Baker. That said, be sure to let your hair air-dry about 70%—or give it a quick rough dry with a traditional blow-dryer—before reaching for your brush. Starting on damp strands helps prevent breakage and ensures a smoother, frizz-free finish, as these tools aren’t designed for sopping-wet hair.
How do I clean my hair-dryer brush?
Hair-dryer brushes come in a range of designs, so depending on the type of barrel, bristles, or shape of your tool, cleaning techniques may vary. “Every brand has different features, but if yours has a filter, remove the dust from it every week,” says Devin Toth, a New York City-based hairstylist. “If you are interested in removing hair from the bristles, use either a comb or a boar bristle brush cleaner—a brush used to clean other brushes,” he suggests.
To remove product buildup from the bristles of your blow dryer brush, wipe it down with a damp cloth. Cherin Choi, a Los Angeles-based hairstylist, previously told Allure that if product buildup won’t budge, she uses a small amount of rubbing alcohol to tackle residue from hairsprays, pomades, and the like.
Remember that cleaning your hot tool regularly is critical to peak performance. “[The product/hair buildup] can prevent your tools from working at full capacity,” Atlanta-based hairstylist Tukia Allen told Allure. Brian O’Connor, a Nashville-based hairstylist, agreed with Allen, adding that a hot tool with buildup can lead to the “uneven heating of the hair.”

How we test and review products
We always enlist a range of testers for our makeup vertical, but hair-care products and tools are another story. While there are certain products that can be used across different hair textures, lengths, curl patterns, thicknesses, colors (natural and unnatural), and needs, hair products are often created with specific consumers in mind. Many are created in order to address a concern (dandruff, breakage, brittleness) or to work most effectively for a specific hair type (4C curls, wavy hair, gray hair). You wouldn’t want to pick up a purple shampoo that’s only been reviewed by someone with, say, auburn hair, or a diffuser that’s never been tested by anyone with curls— right?
For our review of the best hair-dryer brushes, we enlisted the help of multiple editors, writers, contributors, and stylists—each of whom have different hair types, experiences with hair-drying, and desired outcomes. Testers considered performance across four primary categories: efficacy, versatility, ease of use, and value. For more on what’s involved in our reporting, check out our complete reviews process and methodology page.
Our staff and testers
A beauty product is a personal purchase. You might be searching for a face cream to address persistent dryness or a new nail product to add to your Sunday self-care routine; you may simply be browsing around for the latest launches to hit the hair market. No matter what you seek or your individual needs and concerns, Allure wants to ensure that you love anything we recommend in our stories. We believe that having a diverse team of writers and editors—in addition to the wide range of outside testers and industry experts we regularly call upon—is essential to reaching that goal.
After all, can we really say a skin-care product is the “best” for people over 50 if the only testers we’ve solicited opinions from folks who have yet to hit 30? Can we honestly deem a high-end diffuser worthy of your hard-earned cash if it’s never been tested on curls? We’re proud that our staff spans a wide range of ages, skin tones, hair textures, genders, and backgrounds, which means that we are able to fairly assess any beauty product that comes into the beauty closet.

Back to Basics: Hair Conditioner 101
Conditioner is an important step in your routine—it moisturizes, hydrates, detangles, and much more. But conditioner isn’t one-size-fits-all, and different hair needs benefit from different conditioners. OLAPLEX® offers a range of conditioning options, including hair conditioners, masks, and leave-in treatments. Explore all conditioners and choose the best option for your hair with this guide.
What Does Hair Conditioner Do?
The outermost surface of each hair strand is coated with a thin layer of fatty acids called the “F-layer,” with the “F” standing for “fatty.” UV rays, chemical treatments, rough handling, and heat styling can strip away or damage the F-layer, leading to dryness, dullness, and increased breakage. Conditioners help compensate by coating the hair strand with moisturizing and smoothing agents, such as emollients and oils. This protective layer makes hair more manageable, reduces friction, and makes hair easier to style and detangle.
Many conditioners need to be rinsed out after a designated amount of time, but treatments like leave-in conditioners are applied after showering and don’t require rinsing. The conditioner you need depends on your hair type and your specific hair needs.
Is Using a Conditioner Necessary?
If you’re showering in a hurry, you may be tempted to skip conditioner. However, you’d be missing out on the numerous benefits this staple has to offer your hair. Conditioners fortify the hair strand with a protective coating, helping prevent breakage and promote stronger, healthier-looking hair. It also aids in detangling and makes hair smoother, softer, and shinier. We recommend conditioning every time you shampoo.

Swap your usual conditioner for Rich Hydration Moisture Mask—a highly concentrated reparative mask that adds shine, smoothness, and body for visibly healthier hair.

If you’re still not sure which hair mask to use, take the Mask Quiz today.
What Are Hair Bonds?
Hair consists of keratin, a type of fibrous protein, that’s held together by bonds. Hydrogen and salt bonds are physical bonds that can be easily reshaped by changes in pH, water, or heat. In contrast, disulfide bonds are strong chemical covalent bonds that cannot be broken by water.
These bonds are crucial in providing hair with structure, strength, and stability. When disulfide bonds are broken, hair can appear frizzy, dry, and damaged. Most conditioners can address hydrogen and salt bonds. OLAPLEX treatments and leave-in conditioner are powered by OLAPLEX Bond Building Technology™ to repair disulfide bonds at the molecular level to restore your hair’s health and appearance.

One of my closest friends is getting married so it’s been non-stop prep! This weekend, we had her bridal shower and next month will be the wedding so I wanted to organize all I am doing to get glam ready but, minus the toxins, of course. Normally, I live in sweats and have really let my self care slip so hopefully we can get back on track together. Whether you have an event coming soon or you just want to take better care of your glamorous self, here are the products I am using to get event ready, naturally. These are my tried and true, holy grail products!
Outfit Details- If you are here for the bridal shower outfit details, you can find those here. My dress was perfectly on theme and so comfy, it’s not often that I am actually happy and feeling confident in real clothing so, it’s a big win. I also linked the shape wear I found to be super comfy as well, I just sized down a LOT. I am normally a M/L and got the XSS/XS for example and yes, I fought for my life to get it on but once it’s on, its smooth sailing and also yes, there is a potty hole for easy use lol.
Hair Tools- For all of my fave hair tools, including the exact blow dryer and curling iron I used, click here.
Skin Prep
Skin prep before glam is a non negotiable. If your skin is dry, cracked, peeling with clogged pores, no makeup will look just right so, be sure to really invest in a pre-glam skincare routine. Here’s mine. Want to create your own, custom to you? Book a FREE consult with our holistic esthetician here! We have 8 slots open per day, book one!
Exfoliate – The Eco By Sonya Super Acai Exfoliator is a game-changer for a flawless makeup application as it gently buffs away dead skin cells and impurities, leaving your skin feeling fresh and revitalized ready for glam, for me, this scrub is an absolute must 2-3 times a week. Do this before anything else to remove millions, literally, of dead skin cells! Good bye dry patches. If you have acne, opt for the Glow Juice mask instead first.
Tone – Right now, while I am healing my eczema, I can’t get enough of the Aleavia Restore Soothing Mist! It hydrates and refreshes my skin while soothing any irritation. It balances my pH and preps my skin perfectly for makeup and really helps give your skin that bouncy, plump effect. If you are not reacting to things right now, my faveee is the Eco by Sonya Toning Mist as it smells like white gummy bears and is sooo hydrating!
Under Eye Patches – The Beautology Lab 24k Gold Collagen Eye Masks are my secret weapon for those tired mornings or whenever I have an event! Not only do these hydrate the under eye really well, they also brighten and depuff. Keep them in the fridge for a bonus cooling effect. These truly make all the difference as if the delicate under eye skin is not hydrated, your makeup will crease and look sunken in!
Facial Moisture – The Om Organics Gotu Kola Cream is a must-have for pre makeup prep! This facial cream deeply hydrates with hyaluronic acid and squalene, leaving my skin smooth and plump. I like to apply a THICK layer of this before glam, letting it slowly absorb and then, by the time you’re ready for makeup, your skin is no longer parched, dry or cracked. You must let this absorb before applying makeup though or else it will slip off.
Lip Balm – Just like the above prep for the face, the Activist A.M.’s Manuka Honey Lip Balm is my go-to for soft, super moisturized lips! This lip balm is not like normal lip balms, it’s THE lip balm! It’s super nourishing and keeps my lips hydrated, thanks to the antibacterial properties of Manuka honey. Before glam, I triple layer this on and let the lips absorb it before makeup!
Cream Bodysuit – The Agent Nateur Body (Balm) Body Crème is pure luxury, the most luxe body butter balm money can buy! Packed with organic, anti-aging ingredients this body balm provides long-lasting hydration that leaves my skin with major softness and glow. Plus, the smell alone is heavenly, a total treat for the skin. Again, I lather up in this and let my skin soak it up for an hour pre getting dressed. This is a heavier balm that needs time to soak in so as you are getting glam, apply this and then wait!
Makeup Products
When I do full glam, I want products that perform and these sure do. I take all of these items and ask my MUA to use them, they have always done a great job with them since they are all very high performance.
Foundation – This rms beauty ReEvolve Liquid Foundation is my absolute favorite for high-performance glam! I apply it only to the areas that need it most and buff it out, achieving full coverage without that heavy feel. It gives me a flawless complexion with its lightweight, natural coverage. It’s perfect for all-day wear, and I always feel my best at events when I reach for this one. I am shade 11.5.
Foundation Stick – The ZAO Foundation Stick in 780 Tiramisu Tan is perfect for contouring! It adds dimension and warmth, and I love how creamy it is. It blends seamlessly and is great for touch-ups on the go. I fluff this on with the Inika Flat Top Kabuki Brush!
Concealer – I use the rms beauty Revitalize Hydra Concealer in CN07but I barely apply any to avoid that cakey look. The hydrating formula offers buildable coverage, keeping my skin looking fresh and dewy without feeling heavy plus, it comes with a super cute little paint brush applicator which makes applying it a breeze.
Powder – The INIKA Organic Baked Mineral Foundation in 06 Trust is my go-to for setting my makeup! It removes shine while providing a natural finish. I really like how lightweight it feels and that it keeps everything in place throughout the day while adding a boost of clean coverage. Be sure not to apply too much and never all over. This creates a more dry, cakey look when over applied.
Bronzer – The INIKA Organic Baked Mineral Bronzer in Sunbeam adds such a beautiful warmth to my face, it’s been my go-to for years now! It gives me that sun-kissed glow, and people love how rich in antioxidants it is while still being blendable. Trust me, this is the perfect bronzer.
Blush – The Lily Lolo Pressed Blush in Coming Up Roses is perfect for adding a rosy hue to my cheeks! It brightens my complexion, and I love how soft and blendable the texture is plus, it lasts all day!
Eyeshadow – The INIKA Organic Quad Eyeshadow Palette in Flowers has the prettiest shades that match my mauve pink dress perfectly! It’s super pigmented and made from natural ingredients, making application a dream. I typically do not love pink toned makeup but with the right outfit, this is super pretty. I also love using the brown shade from the below palette in the crease alongside these shades! So pretty!
Eyeshadow – I also love the INIKA Organic Quad Eyeshadow Palette in Sunset for adding depth to my look. The dark brown shade in the crease gives me a sultry, smokey look that’s so pretty when mixed with the other colors or the above shades. Both palettes are ones I use again and again.
False Lashes – The Battington 3D Silk Half Lashes in Demi with Invisible Band are my favorite! They’re lightweight and provide a natural yet glamorous finish, perfect for photos. At my age, I no longer want a massive lash, just a little pop on the ends and that is exactly what these are. They are also much easier to apply!
Mascara – The Eco By Sonya Mitzi Mascara holds my curl beautifully which is hard to find for someone with pin straight, short lashes! It’s non-toxic and adds volume and length without clumping, making my lashes look amazing. It’s holy grail status.
Eyeliner – The ZuZu Luxe Liquid Liner in Raven Black is fantastic for precise lines, it is hands down my #1 fave liquid black liner, plus they make various other colors! It’s easy to apply and stays put all day, giving my eye makeup that flawless finish.
Brow Pencil – The Plume Nourish + Define Brow Pencil 2- Ashy Daybreak is perfect for shaping my brows. It creates a natural finish and feels great knowing it’s packed with nourishing ingredients. This is my top pick for brows because it’s fool proof to apply.
Lip liner – The Gabriel Cosmetics Lipliner in Chestnut is a must as it is the perfect mauve brown shade, I am obsessed! It glides on smoothly and prevents feathering, making my lips look perfect all day. I love to heavily line with this and then pop a lighter shade on in the center for an ombre Kim K. sexy lip!
Lipstick – The Lily Lolo Vegan Lipstick in AU Naturel is my go-to for a soft, natural lip color… the perfect pale nude for pairing with the above liner! It’s nourishing and keeps my lips hydrated while delivering beautiful color payoff.
Highlighter – The rms beauty ReDimension Hydra Dew Luminizer in Prosecco Fizz gives me such a radiant glow, again, this is my go-to, top choice for a stunning highlighter! It’s also lightweight and hydrating, which is perfect for days where you want some shine without the weight.
Hair Care
Healthy, well groomed hair can really add to your look which is why I am sure to take care of my hair year round. I will link the products I use to wash and style my hair, all non-toxic!
HairShampoo – I washed my hair with the Fail Volume Shampooand it adds so much body and lift! People love it because it cleanses without stripping natural oils, leaving hair feeling refreshed and voluminous.
Conditioner – I followed with the Under Luna Revive Conditionerand it deeply nourishes my hair. Its creamy texture detangles and hydrates beautifully, making hair soft and manageable plus it smells like fresh Jasmine!
Detangles – I used the Rahua Hydration Detangler to effortlessly detangle my hair and protect it from UV damage. People love its lightweight formula that provides moisture without weighing hair down. This is a go-to, holy grail item for me, all of these items are actually.
Heat Protectant – Before styling, I applied the Rahua Heat Protective Shield to safeguard my hair from heat damage. It keeps my hair shiny and smooth, and everyone raves about how well it works! Protecting my hair from heat damage is a must to keep it as healthy as it can be.
Volume Foam – For added volume at the roots, I always reach for the Yarok Feed Your Roots Mousse. It gives me fantastic lift without making my hair feel stiff or crunchy! If you have fine hair, this is a must for me always! Not sure!? Try the mini form! If I do want a hair spray, I will use the Yarok Hair Spray which actually works really well but I prefer a more silky, soft curl usually.
Curling – I curled my hair for that extra texture and bounce. I used a 1 inch curling iron, curling all the same direction, away from my face. The smaller curling iron helps my curls hold longer and better. To see the exact blowdryer and curling iron I use, click here.
Shine Oil – Finally, I finished with the Rahua Color Full Glossing Oil Mist for a gorgeous shine and hydration. I don’t use hairspray because it makes my hair tangly, so the oil is perfect for keeping it smooth and shiny without any stiffness!

This is a great tip because you can not only get a super clean, Organic tan but… you can do it at home and it’s flawless! Simply get my favorite tanning solution, the Eco Tan Spray Tan Solution and then, get this Spray Tan Gun and boom, you’re done. Be sure to exfoliate first, and apply a super rich barrier cream to feet, ankles, knees, elbows and hands for the cleanest, best sunless tan around! A must for your next vacay or event!

If you have curly or wavy hair, try adding a diffuser to your blow-dryer to help enhance your hair’s curl pattern.
Diffusing your hair can also help prevent frizz.
To diffuse your hair, place small sections of your hair into the diffuser and move to the next section once your hair is 80% dry.

How to Diffuse Your Hair to Create Waves or Curls
Are you looking for a way to dry your curly or wavy hair without frizz? If you have a blow-dryer, all you need is an extra attachment for creating beautiful waves or curls in your hair. Learn more about how to use a diffuser to enhance curls or waves.
What Is Diffusing?
Has blow-drying your hair ever made your curls look flat or frizzy? Fortunately, there’s a solution for that. Diffusers are excellent tools for styling wavy to corkscrew hair types. They work by providing a softer, dispersed airflow instead of blowing direct heat onto your curls. This drying method can help minimize frizz, work as a wave and curl definer, and, in some cases, add body to your hair.
Types of Hair Diffusers
There are different types of hair diffusers, each providing different benefits. For example, some diffusers are more travel-friendly, while others can help boost body. Here are a few different types of hair diffusers that you might come across:
Cup Diffuser
Cup diffusers, also known as bowl diffusers, are the most popular diffuser type and are usually made of plastic. Their cup-like shape distributes hot air evenly, which is a gentler way to dry your hair. If you have medium to long hair, a cup diffuser might be a perfect tool to help reduce frizz, define your curls or waves, and add body.
Sock Diffuser
Sock diffusers are made of fabric, so their softness makes them great for fragile curl patterns. They can help prevent frizz and are ultra-portable if you’re traveling. The downside to sock diffusers is that they may not volumize your hair as much as a traditional cup diffuser.
Hand-Shaped Diffuser
This diffuser is shaped like a hand and features plastic “fingers” that glide into the hair for easy blow-drying. Hand-shaped diffusers spread heat evenly through your hair for a natural, air-dried look. They can help prevent hair shrinkage and frizz, but hand-shaped diffusers may not add much body to your hair.
If you’re looking to buy a diffuser, make sure it’s compatible with your blow-dryer first. If you’re not sure which diffusers can attach to your hair dryer, look for a universal diffuser.
How to Use a Diffuser on Curly or Wavy Hair
Now that you know about the different types of diffusers, it’s time to learn how to diffuse your curly or wavy hair. Follow these steps to dry your hair with a diffuser using good products for wavy and curly hair:
1. Wash Your Hair
The first step before diffusing your hair is to wash it. Choose a shampoo like OLAPLEX® Nº.4 Bond Maintenance® Shampoo to gently cleanse, nourish, and strengthen your hair for improved manageability and softness. Give your curls or waves some love with a conditioner like Nº.5 Bond Maintenance® Conditioner for smoother, healthier hair.
If you have fine hair, reach for Nº.4FINE Bond Maintenance® Shampoo and Nº.5FINE Bond Maintenance® Conditioner. This bond repair regimen is specifically designed for the needs of fine hair experiencing damage. Together, they provide an optimal balance of repair, weightless hydration, and healthy body and volume without weighing down strands.
For curly, wavy, and coily hair, choose Nº.4Curl Bond Shaper™ Hydrating Curl Shampoo and Nº.5Curl Bond Shaper™ Hydrating Conditioner. Together, this duo reduces frizz and restores moisture to hair for soft, defined curls.
2. Apply Product
Once you step out of the shower, it’s time to add curl-enhancing products to your hair. You can try scrunching your hair with Nº.10 Bond Shaper Curl Defining Gel. Scrunch your hair in an upward motion to enhance your natural curl pattern. You’ll love Nº.10 because it works well with other styling and moisturizing products, provides heat protection, adds shine, prevents frizz, and re-links disulfide bonds for a more defined, repaired curl shape and structure.
3. Start Diffusing
It’s time to dry your hair with your diffuser. Here’s how you should use your diffuser:
Keep your hair dryer on low heat and low-medium air pressure to prevent heat damage and frizz.
Start by diffusing the root area first, making your way down to the ends. The root and midshaft areas will likely take longer to dry.
Take a section of your hair and place it into the diffuser. You can use your fingers to place your curls or waves inside the diffuser, but don’t use a comb or brush. Once one section starts to feel dry, move on to the next section of hair.
For extra volume, flip your head upside down while diffusing your roots and tilt your head from side to side to create even volume throughout.
Stop diffusing your hair once it’s about 80% dry. Letting your hair air dry the rest of the way will help keep your curls or waves bouncy.
If you struggle with blow-drying your wavy or curly hair, a diffuser might be the answer. Your curls will appear bouncier and less frizzy when you use a diffuser. Head to the OLAPLEX Blog for other curly-hair techniques (like plopping), and explore more OLAPLEX products that support your curls.
Why your mascara should be your favorite skincare step
Have you ever reached the end of a long, beautiful day, looked in the mirror, and felt like your eyelashes were… tired? Many of us have become accustomed to the “crunchy” sensation of traditional mascara—that stiff, brittle feeling where your lashes feel like tiny, dry twigs rather than soft, fluttering silk. We’ve been told for years that if we want dramatic volume and jet-black length, we have to sacrifice the health of our hair follicles to harsh synthetic waxes, drying alcohols, and heavy glues.
But why should your eye makeup be a burden? At 100% PURE, we believe your mascara shouldn’t just sit on your lashes—it should nourish them. We are flipping the script on traditional beauty. Instead of a heavy paint that weighs you down, we’ve created a conditioning volumizing mascara that acts as a high-end lash serum, providing professional-grade drama while delivering deep, restorative care.
Welcome to the bridge between dramatic beauty and deep conditioning. Welcome to the Passion Fruit Mascara.
I. The Power of Maracuja and Seaweed: Nature’s Hair Care
When you look at the ingredient list of a typical mascara, you’ll often find petroleum-based products and coal tar. In contrast, the Passion Fruit Mascara reads like a recipe for a luxury hair mask. We’ve sourced the most potent botanicals to ensure that every time you blink, you are treating your eyes to a ritual of vitality.
The Glide of Maracuja Oil
The star of the show is Passion fruit oil (passion fruit oil). This exotic botanical is prized in the skincare world for its high concentration of essential fatty acids and Vitamin C. When infused into a mascara, it provides a “weightless glide.”
No More Clumping: Because Maracuja oil is so silky, the formula moves across each hair without catching or dragging.
The Supple Factor: It keeps the lashes flexible throughout the day. You can touch your lashes and feel them bounce back, rather than snapping or flaking.
Seaweed & Pro-vitamin B5: The Growth Duo
We didn’t stop at oil. To ensure this is a truly healthy lash mascarawe’ve included seaweed and Pro-vitamin B5 (Panthenol).
Seaweed: Rich in minerals like iodine and magnesium, seaweed helps to mineralize the hair shaft, making it appear thicker and more resilient from the root to the tip.
Pro-vitamin B5: This is a legendary ingredient in high-end hair care because it’s a humectant. It draws moisture into the lash, plumping the appearance of the hair and supporting natural, healthy thickening over time.
II. Volume Without the Weight: The Feathery Finish
The “Real-You” philosophy is all about effortless elegance. We want your eyes to look wide-awake and dramatic, but never “overdone.” The goal of our mascara is to provide feathery volume—a look that is lush, dark, and full, yet still soft to the touch.
The Precision of the Tapered Oval Tip
A great formula is only half the battle; the tool used to apply it is just as vital. Our wand features a tapered oval tip designed for the ultimate “reveal.”
The Base: The wider part of the brush allows you to deposit a healthy amount of Maracuja-infused pigment at the base of the lashes, creating the illusion of a thicker lash line.
The Tip: The tapered end allows you to reach those tiny, delicate lashes in the inner and outer corners that traditional brushes often miss.
Separation: As you wiggle the wand from root to tip, the bristles act like a comb, separating each lash so they fanning out like a delicate wing.
The result isn’t a thick “unibrow” for your eyes; it is a clean, sophisticated definition that feels as light as a breeze.
III. Completing the Gaze: A Balanced Beauty Ritual
In our previous chapters, we discussed the importance of a breathable makeup base and the dimension of a Gemmed Luminizer. The Maracuja Mascara is the final touch that brings the entire look together.
When you pair healthy, voluminous lashes with the Fruit Pigmented® 2nd Skin Foundationyou create a balanced aesthetic. Your skin looks like skin, and your lashes look like lashes—only better. To finish the “Gaze,” we always recommend a swipe of the Fruit Pigmented® Lip Gloss.
The Visual Balance: A dark, feathery lash needs a soft, juicy lip to keep the face looking fresh and modern.
The Holistic Care: Just as your lashes are being treated with Maracuja oil, your lips are being drenched in Vitamin E.
This is the beauty of the Real-You Beauty Collection: every single product is working toward the same goal—your health. You are never choosing between “looking good” and “doing good” for your body.
IV. Conclusion: Beauty Shouldn’t Be a Sacrifice
For too long, the ritual of beauty has felt like a series of trade-offs. We used heavy foundations to hide our skin, only to cause breakouts. We used stiff mascaras to get volume, only to find our lashes thinning over time.
It is time to demand more from our products. You deserve the dramatic volume of your dreams without the “crunch.” You deserve a routine that feels like restorative skincare from the moment you apply it until the moment you wash it away.
With Maracuja, seaweed, and fruit pigments, we’ve created a mascara that celebrates the life and vitality of your eyes. This May, let your lashes bloom. Embrace the volume, enjoy the vitality, and step into the world with eyes wide open.
FAQ: Caring for Your Lashes
Can this mascara help my lashes look thicker over time?
While Maracuja Mascara is a cosmetic product, the ingredients—specifically Pro-vitamin B5 and seaweed minerals—are known to support the health and condition of hair. By switching from a harsh, drying mascara to a conditioning one, you reduce lash breakage and fallout. Over time, healthier lashes naturally appear fuller and more robust because they are no longer being damaged by daily wear.
Is it water-resistant for long summer days?
Our Maracuja Mascara is designed to be long-wearing and smudge-resistant, thanks to the natural “grip” of the fruit pigments and plant waxes. While it is not a “waterproof” formula (as those often require harsh chemicals that strip the lashes), it holds up beautifully through humidity and long days. It’s the perfect companion for a May garden party or a busy day at the office.
What is the best way to remove conditioning mascara without tugging?
Even with a gentle, maracuja oil lashes formula, removal should be treated with care. To avoid tugging at the delicate eye area, we recommend using a natural oil-based cleanser or a warm, damp microfiber cloth. Hold the cloth over your closed eyes for 10–15 seconds to allow the plant waxes to soften, then gently sweep downward. Because our formula is free of synthetic glues, it will slide off easily, leaving your lashes feeling soft and hydrated.
