Revital #Hair Treatment by Urielle #Review

When I was recently asked to do a review on a hair product, I gave some specifications.  First of all, I love all things natural.  If I have to choose between something natural and artificial, regardless of the accolades, I will pick natural every time.  It's just how I roll!  But I am not obsessive about it either.  If something is effective w/o being totally natural, I'll weigh the benefits vs. the risks because, obviously, I want results from the products I use.  But enough about me.  Let me introduce Revital by Urielle!

Designed to be used in all keratin and color-treated hair, this treatment is the first in a new line of amazing luxury hair care products, created by and named for the owner of the renowned New York Salon, The Red Chair, Uriel Yusopov.  He has gained a wild and loyal following of women from the upper East Side and far beyond.  Uriel grew up in St. Petersburg, Russia and is descended from a long line of hair masters.  He learned his techniques and eye for hair early at the feet of his grandmother, who was an award winning wig master for the renowned Bolshoi Ballet and his grandfather, who was one of St. Petersburg's most famous hair stylists, who catered to aristocrats and thespians, alike.  So the art of hair is really in his blood.  

I was impressed with just how light and weightless this treatment went into my hair.  Unlike other leave-in treatments, this oil didn't make my hair feel oily at all, even when I hadn't washed my hair in a few days.  I feel like my hair just absorbs this potion, with one of the main ingredients being Manuka Honey of New Zealand! This honey is special because it contains more healing and beneficial properties than any honey in the world.  It is combined with highly nutritional oils and beneficial extracts.  So you can apply it when your hair is damp after washing or you can apply it on dry hair.  Either way your hair will greatly benefit.  

My hair has a plethora of problems.  It dries naturally into a curly, thick, frizzy, hot mess.  So I need to blow-dry it to death and use a lot of hair-taming products.  At least that's how I've done it in the past.  And yes, I lean toward the natural hair care products.  Free from parabens, sulfates,  propylane, glycol and synthetic colors or dyes, I think it's safe for me to say that this line can qualify for my definition of natural.  At any rate, Revital seems to be different than all of the other products I've used.  And it really works well!  I put just a little bit through my damp hair after it has been washed and then I put in a little bit before styling, after styling--basically, I put Revital in my hair whenever I think about it.  No residues seem to build up and no oiliness either. I'm very pleased with the product, to say the least.  From my very first blow dry using it, I could tell a big difference.  I think that if you're a mom who would like to have a very special gift for Mother's Day or any other occasion, this would be a great one!  Remember when I said that I prefer natural but I also want effectiveness?  I believe I found the best of both in this amazing product.  It's both natural and very effective!  It is worth every penny.
I only wish I could meet Uriel Yusopov in person to thank him for making such a wonderful hair product!

A Great Way To Cut College Costs

Congratulations!  You're in college!  Whether you're going back after some time off or just out of high school, many people think that once you're in college that it's smooth sailing and gravy from here on out.  Here comes the high-paying job around the corner!  Not so fast there, future moneybags! There are so many costs involved when you go to college and it all adds up!  From parking passes to laptops to room & board, tuition, lab fees, phone and, oh yes, textbooks.

When I was going to college one of the biggest expenses that you absolutely couldn't avoid was the cost of textbooks.  Every class has a required textbook, sometimes 2 or 3, and you need to have them unless, of course, you want to fail the class.  Now the problem with getting these textbooks is that they are so expensive!  Even if you get a scholarship or grant, you can bet the a major portion of that money will go towards the purchase of books.  Of course, you think that you can sell them back after you're done with them.  But the reality is that re-sell value is so minimal, it's ridiculous!  So imagine, if you actually could just cut the cost of your textbooks by 40% - 90% up front?  How much more funding would you have to....eat? 

Well, throw up your hands and shout hallelujah, because I found a way to do just that!  It's called CampusBookRentals.com!  So, instead of spending time trudging (or driving...same thing) to the local bookstore, trying to find your book, hoping that maybe you can buy it used, in good condition, only to find that it is out of stock, do this instead.  Hop online, search for your book by either title, ISBN #, author or keyword.  How about these 2  keywords - Effective Speaking - to find this book!  I pay only $31.46 per semester for a 400 page textbook!  Once you find it, then reserve it for as long as you need it, tell them when and where to ship it (FREE shipping both ways) and then just go about your other pressing college-related activities.  So not only are you saving money, but now you've just saved a ton of time!

I guess CampusBookRental.com is actually a pretty big deal.  They have served customers on 5,871 campuses and then they turn around and do something I think is pretty amazing.  Have you ever heard of Operation Smile?  It's a good-will program where organizations from the US help children in 3rd world countries whose families couldn't otherwise afford dental surgeries for cleft palate and cleft lip surgeries. The long term Improvement in quality of life for the children that receive these surgeries is almost incomprehensible. CampusBookRental.com has already committed to donating enough to cover a minimum of  1,000 life-changing surgeries.  That's because every time someone uses their service to rent a book to go to college, they donate a portion of that money to go to this amazing cause.  So now, not only have you saved money, saved time, you are now a philanthropist working through CampusBookRental.com.  How good does that make you feel?   I feel awesome just writing about it.  I've said I'd never go back to college again, but how can you say never, anyway?  And if I ever do, I will definitely be sure to use this great resource for my own college textbooks.
