Review:Hana Professional Flat Iron + Plus New Hair

Hey Bella's.. I was recently contacted by Misikko.com to review their lastest flat iron. Lately, I have been declining offers to review products because I simply didn't want to feel entitled to write about a product that was of no interest to me. However, I do believe in supporting small businesses, so I said yes to the offer.

How beautiful is the packaging? I can appreciate a company that puts some thought into how they ship their merchandise. This company is definitely off to a good start with me.

Let's get down to it.. I can say I really like this flat iron. It heats up extremely fast. I mean I was surprised by how fast it heated to 450F.. It is ceramic and tourmaline plated, so it is not as damaging to the hair.

I used the flat iron on damp hair and it worked amazingly. I didn't get any frizzing nor did my hair smell burned. According, to the website the plate adjusts to hair texture, so that could be the reason for lack of frizz.

Features

Flat iron heat is adjustable between 160f and 450f

Flash Heat in Seconds

Ceramic and Tourmaline Plates

Floating plates that adjust to any hair texture

Over this weekend, I used this flat iron to achieve my latest style. I created this quick weave as a protective style. I also did an invisible part to make the weave more natural. I am sorry for the pic, it doesnt show the full view of the hair but no one was home to take the pic.. Will probably update pic later.

You can find the Hana Professional Flat Iron here...

Big News: Face Atelier Foundation

Hey Ladies. I have some news on the cult fave foundation created by Face Atelier. The foundation that I am referencing in this post is called the Ultra Foundation.

Exciting News

In May, the Ultra Foundation line will be extended to include deeper tone shades for WOC. I, first met with the creator of Face Atelier, Debbie Bondar, maybe 2-3years ago at the Makeup Show NY and I harassed her every year there after about creating shades for WOC. I was excited when I saw her this year and she showed the new colors that will be added. I love companies that actually listens to their consumers. In May, when the colors come out do yourself a favor and get a bottle of this awesome foundation. You can check out the website here.
