Finally got my ceramic flat iron!

Okay if there’s one thing I will never be is being a beauty influencer. I’m not really a beauty product type of girl, but I do love hair products and experimenting with hairstyles. I used to have these iron and blowers back home in Manila, but since I moved here, I had to leave them. Since I got here, I’ve been looking for the right products. I have always wanted to get this ceramic flat iron but it’s kind of expensive in Manila. I’m so happy I found this baby – Aima Beauty 1.25″ Tourmaline Ceramic Flat Iron!

Okay if there’s one thing I will never be is being a beauty influencer. I’m not really a beauty product type of girl, but I do love hair products and experimenting with hairstyles. I used to have these iron and blowers back home in Manila, but since I moved here, I had to leave them. Since I got here, I’ve been looking for the right products. I have always wanted to get this ceramic flat iron but it’s kind of expensive in Manila. I’m so happy I found this baby – Aima Beauty 1.25″ Tourmaline Ceramic Flat Iron! So let me tell you what I love and don’t love about this product.

It’s Ceramic. So I’ve always had the normal ones. The ones that are just like, titanium iron, simple ones. My hair is very stubborn – you know, the usual Asian hair that’s very straight. I like that this iron shows my hair who’s the boss – you know what I mean? LOL. Basically, when I use this, it keeps my hair straight or curled. I’m not really sure and I am not also well-oriented about products, but I do know ceramic material is better as it keeps my hair smooth and shiny, and it doesn’t really destroy my hair as it it not that harsh, and at the same time it keeps it as how I want it.

It has smooth edges so it comes out as 2-in-1 – Straightening and Curling. You know those hair irons that is just for straightening your hair, so it’s has those square edges. This one has round edge (lol, I suck at describing). So I don’t need to get a curling iron as I can use this for both ironing and curling my hair.

It tells you the temperature. I like that it tells you what temperature it is. It takes a little bit over 10-15 seconds to have it heated and get to 370°F and it limits to 450°F, which is good. I just don’t like that I cannot adjust it. Or maybe I haven’t really explored it yet. We shall see.

It turns off on its own, which is safe. To be honest, I just read this on the Amazon product description, but I got it because of this. I’m really forgetful and you know how dangerous these things are when it’s left on. I’m not saying that I will actually leave it on, but it’s nice to know that it has this safety feature.

The price is just right! I think the price is just right for $31.99 on Amazon. I think this is not that expensive, for a 2-in-1 and good quality product. I mean, even if converted in PHP, it is just PHP 1500 compared to the ones that I see which is around PHP 3,000-PHP 10,000.

And whoever is reading this, today is your lucky day because I have a special discount code if you’d like to buy this product! If you buy this from Amazon, you’ll get 20% discount when you use my code: TNKG487Z.

So, I kind of had a little fun last Friday, since I was so bored, and edited a little video for this. Enjoy!!

Why I like Kipozi Hair Brush Dryer

Okay, so this is my first time officially reviewing a product. So, please just go with it. I’m going to try my best to do this and sell you this product! LOL. So I recently purchased this 4-in-1 Hair Dryer and Volumizer from Kipozi.

Okay, so this is my first time officially reviewing a product. So, please just go with it. I’m going to try my best to do this and sell you this product! LOL. So I recently purchased this 4-in-1 Hair Dryer and Volumizer from Kipozi. My friend and I have always wanted to buy one, and since I was earning pesos then, I didn’t want to drop PHP 3,000 on such product and I didn’t want to trust the brands on Shopee. So! I was happy about this purchase and here are the reasons why:

  1. Comes with a case and cleaning tool, and that’s a plus for me because I am not really good at taking care of things. This one comes with a velvet case. Also, it came with a small claw that you can use to clean the brush after using it.
  2. Well, yeah, I have always wanted to buy one of these but I always though it was expensive but this was a good price. When I saw it on Amazon, I was like, “meh, I guess this is fine”. I saw some other products which are around $45-$55. But when I came across this, I thought it was an okay price – it’s sold for $37.00 on Amazon.
  3. Easy to use and you can literally use it with one hand. Just plug it in, and you can blow dry your hair with one hand. Beats having to hold the hair dryer and comb it at the same time, then twisting the comb to have the volume on your hair — say goodbye to those days! The brush is round, so you can just twist it while drying your hair. You can adjust the temperature easily from Low to High while holding the brush.

3. It is a hair dryer, hair straightener and hair volumizer at the same time. Some say it’s like Brazilian blow out at home! Also it has those little teeth with round tip, and hair brush strands which makes it softer on your scalp. Did I make sense? LOL, sorry.

4. It is not that hot on your hair, so it doesn’t burn it. I also like the face that the air is kind of “distributed” into those holes which is spread out within the brush area, so it kind of covers more parts/hair and it makes everything faster. As opposed to a normal hair blower, you just focus on that one part from root to tip, then repeat the process. This one you can just comb.

5. My only concern is that it’s kind of big for my hand. I have a small hand.

So anyway, of course I made a time lapse demo video. Here it is!

There we go!! Sorry, my hair is naturally always straight but today it helped with the volume. Also, look at the tips, I kindda tried to have some waves, but it didn’t work. It wasn’t hot enough. Not to worry!!
