2A Waterproof Projector Lamp For Soothing Showers

4Hair Perfume That Actually Nourishes Strands
Hair is porous, so spraying perfume in your hair allows it to diffuse slowly throughout the day. That said, most perfumes contain alcohol, which can dry out and damage strands. This hair perfume oil combines a floral-and-fruit scent with an alcohol-free, lightweight serum that actually nourishes your hair. As a result, it tames frizz, boosts shine, and surrounds you in a gorgeous fragrance that lasts all day.
