WELLA PROFESSIONALS
The German hair care company has launched the revolutionary Illumina Color Japan range, a professional colour system formulated in Japan and designed specifically for Asian hair.
The patented Trilumina Balance technology expresses the translucent colour and the Microlight (EDDS) technology keeps hair conditions in pristine quality, reducing hair fall with up to 40 per cent less cuticle damage and leaving hair smoother and more radiant even after several washes.
Also done at the salon, Wella's new professional three-step repairing hair treatment Wellaplex ($169) and Illumina Color Japan provide the most luminous hues and help to retain hair's natural bounce and vigour.
Wella hair services start from $189 at salons listed on the Wella Professionals SEA & Korea Facebook page.
SUPERGOOP!
The US beauty brand is introducing its 100% Mineral Matte Screen SPF 40 ($56), an ultra-light, water and sweat resistant, non-whitening sunscreen formula available in a universal tint.
