The Beauty Times

A made in Indonesia hair serum. This ellips Hair Vitamin comes in cute little individual capsules. In this way, you do not need to gauge how much you need to squeeze out or worry that you will over-pump and waste.

Initially, I was quite skeptical as this is not from well-known, tried-and-tested brands like L’oreal or Asience. After I got to know a close colleague of mine who is using and have good reviews, I decided to try it myself.

There are 2 types of packaging; one is a bottle and the other is in blister card form. Hence if you are unsure about whether you will like it or not, you can buy the blister card (6 capsules in one card) to try first. In this way, if you do not like it, you can still give/ sell the rest away.

That was what I did, and went on to buy the bottle (50 capsules in a bottle) later coz I really like it. The serum feels thick when you rub between your palms, but is quickly absorbed into damp hair.

Having very long hair, the ends tend to be dry. I applied most of it to my ends, and the next day, my hair feels softer to the touch and the ends look tamer.

To verify that it works, I skipped it for a day and indeed, the ends looks frizzier the next day.

The most convenient place that sells this is Watson’s. But it is more expensive at $2.45 for the blister card and $15.90 for the bottle of 50’s. I got mine at Beaute Spring at Toa Payoh at $9.00 for the bottle.

There is also different ‘flavours’.

1) Pink - Hair Treatment. Contains Jojoba Oil for hair repair. Also helps in reducing split ends and dryness caused by frequent blow drying and styling.

2) Yellow – Smooth & Shiny. Contains Aloe Vera for hair protection and UV protection. Also provides the necessary vitamins and nutrition to make your hair smooth and shiny.

3) Purple – Nutri Colour. With triple care of nourishing and giving a healthy shine to colored hair, and treating dull hair caused by exposure to the sun.

4) Black – Shiny & Black. Contains Candle Nut and Aloe Vera. Helps protect hair from damages caused by exposure to the sun and helps restore the healthy shine of black hair.

P/S: I personally likes the pink one (not only just because of the colour; just in case you are thinking)
