PRODUCT REVIEW: Repelle

Hello. Feel free to subscribe to my BLOG. Thanks for visiting!

I got this product from PR upon request and boy am I glad I did. If you color your hair like me, you definitely need this. One of my pet peeves is whenever I get my colored, most stylist don’t bother being careful around the hairline as they apply color or even take preventive measures to prevent staining the skin as they apply. And rather than cleaning up as they go, any color on your face (if you’re lucky) is removed as they remove and wash out the color, only for you to look in the mirror and find dark stains on your forehead, cheeks and sides of your neck. Not lovely. And it drives me nuts.
Enter, Repelle’s Skin Shield Wand
+Repelle
This does what your stylist should do. Just apply this little stick around your hairline before they apply the color and it will not stain your skin. It looks like it will because any color that gets on does go dark, but you’ll find that it easily removes off after with no problems.
I tried this when I got my color done and it worked great. It was easy to apply and easy to remove
and I was colorstain free. I;m also using it on my eyebrow tinting clients as well to avoid any staining of the skin as I tint their eyebrows.
They also state that it also works as a chap-stick, a as a manicure helper (if you line your nails with it will prevent from sticking to your skin).
Repelle includes:

  • Pretectin-22; which
    is derived from the rapeseed plant, a biodegradable ingredient which is
    the 3rd most common source of vegetable oil after soy and palm
  • shea butter for barrier protection and for moisturizing
  • aloe for its reputed healing properties
  • Vitamin E for anti-oxidant power (which is particularly appropriate for color since it utilizes oxidizing dyes)
  • Petrolatum, one of
    the most recommended ingredients by dematologists for skin protection
    and moisturization, and more! See our label for complete details.
