Glow Up Essentials: 10 Hair and Skin Products We Can’t Live Without

Make these products part of your beauty routine in 2024

Do you have products in your beauty routine that you can’t live without? Maybe it’s a dewy primer that gives your skin a little extra glow or a leave-in conditioner that keeps your hair manageable. 

We have our go-to favorites, too, that we can’t get enough of and love recommending to our guests. If you’re ready to level-up your beauty routine this year or just want to try something new, check out these 10 hair and skin products we can’t live without! 

Our Top 5 Hair Product Picks for 2024

Caring for your hair isn’t a luxury. It’s a necessity to keep it looking its best year-round. If you spend any time on social media, you know there’s always this influencer or that influencer promoting the latest hair care product that’s going to solve all your hair care problems — and maybe even change your life. 

Well, we make no promises that our product picks are going to change your life, but they WILL change your hair. 

1. L’Oréal’s Metal Detox System

As the leading salon in Wentzville, one of our guests’ primary concerns is how hard water affects their hair. Hard water isn’t unsafe, but it sure wrecks havoc on one’s hair, causing a dry, brittle and unmanageable mane. 

Even if you don’t have hard water, your home’s metal piping can become overloaded with metal particles like copper. Overtime, the metal particles can sink into your hair fibers and make your tresses look lifeless. L’Oréal’s Metal Detox System is a professional at-home protocol that’s great for all hair types. It removes metal from the hair, moisturizes, strengthens, and protects hair from further damage.

2.Volumetry

Are you tired of struggling with fine, limp hair? Do you want fuller tresses? L’Oréal’s Volumetry Shampoo and anti-gravity root spray are the perfect products to add to your hair care routine. The system adds volume, hydrates your hair while adding extreme shine, and purifies your roots. We carry both products in our salon and spa in Wentzville. 

3. R+Co Spiritualized Dry Shampoo

What’s in for 2024? Ditching daily hair washing.

Washing your hair everyday strips it of its natural oils, dries it out, and can make your color fade faster. One of our favorite products is R+Co Spiritualized Dry Shampoo. Why do we love it so much? For starters, it doesn’t leave a powdery residue like other dry shampoos. Also, its micellar formula cleanses the scalp and hair. Drugstore dry shampoos don’t do that. 

4. Absolut Repair Molecular System

If you have damaged hair, its molecular structure has been compromised. The result is hair that lacks elasticity and movement. It becomes weak and needs repairing. The Absolut Repair Molecular System does just that. It’s a formula suitable for all hair types and repairs damage by rebuilding molecular structure. The system includes:

  • Sulfate-free molecular repairing shampoo

  • Rinse-off serum

  • Leave-in mask

5. R+Co Chiffon Styling Mousse

We’re betting this lightweight styling mousse is going to be your new best friend this year. If your hair is craving extra body, shine, and volume, you need R+Co Chiffon Styling Mousse. It’s made from Abyssinian oil, black Polynesian volcanic sand, and styling polymer and is a part of R+Co’s color-safe, heat and UV protective, and cruelty-free product line. This styling mousse is paraben and sulfate-free and doesn’t contain mineral oil and petroleum. 

Our Top 5 Skin Product Picks for 2024

We’re only a few weeks into the new year, and already, winter’s taking its toll. These sub-zero windchill days not only zap any leftover holiday cheer, but they zap our skin of much-needed moisture. While in-salon services like Hydrafacials and custom facials can infuse your skin with moisturizing ingredients immediately, it’s not enough to combat winter’s wrath. 

The solution? Revamping your skincare routine with highly moisturizing products that keep your skin glowing and clean. Here are our top 5 skincare products for 2024:

1. Epionce Renewal Facial Cream

There are many things to love about this facial cream, but can we start with how good it smells? Seriously, it smells amazing! But it’s also a rich moisturizing formula that improves the signs of aging skin, such as fine lines and wrinkles, while making your skin radiant. We recommend pairing it with one of the Epionce Lytic Tx products we sell, but it’s still a winner all by itself. 

2. Daily Power Defense by ZO®

What’s hot in 2024? Strengthening your skin’s protective barrier. You can’t ignore the protective barrier if you want to achieve a healthy, youthful, and long-lasting complexion. ZO® Skin Health’s Daily Power Defense does double duty and puts up a mega defense against environmental stressors that contribute to premature signs of aging. It’s a must-have skincare product that all our skincare specialists stand by and a beauty routine must-have this year.

3. Growth Factor Serum by ZO®

We love this product because it restores hydration and improves:

  • Elasticity 

  • Firmness

  • Smoothness

This powerful formula will be one of your must-have anti-aging products. It’s great for mature skin, but also for younger skin to improve your skin’s overall appearance early. The ZPRO® formula does a wonderful job replenishing your skin with hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring glycosaminoglycan found throughout the body’s connective tissue. As we age, the connective tissue breaks down and our skin doesn’t produce as much hyaluronic acid. Adding the Growth Factor Serum to your skincare routine will, overtime, help restore plumpness and moisture. 

Pro tip: Try the ZO® Growth Factor Eye Serum to restore moisture and tighten the under eye area. 

4. ZO® Exfoliating Polish

Hydration isn’t the only thing you want to focus on this year. You also want to ensure your skin’s exfoliated. Exfoliated skin removes dead skin cells and gives your skin a fantastic glow.

One of the best things about this exfoliating polish is that it’s powerful yet gentle. So gentle that you can use it daily. However, if you notice any irritation with daily usage, we recommend scaling back to three times a week. Also, a little goes a long way with this product and you’ll get many months from one 2.3 ounce container. 

5. GLO Make-up Remover Wipes

We’re going to write this in caps because it’s important. STOP WEARING YOUR MAKEUP TO BED!

GLO make-up remover wipes make it easy to remove makeup and excess oil, but also replenish and restore hydration with each use. Some of the key ingredients in the wipes include: 

  • Aloe vera

  • Apple, cucumber, and oat extracts

  • Chamomile

These gentle make-up remover wipes are suitable for all skin types, easy to travel with, and leave your skin feeling so clean.

Myth: You Can’t Mix and Match Your Products

We know many of you have your preferred haircare and skincare brands, but why not try something new? If you think you can only get certain results by only using products from a single product line, we’re here to tell you that is a HUGE beauty myth. 

At The Color Room in Wentzville, MO, our highly trained associates can help you put together a personalized beauty routine that fits your hair and skin’s unique needs, your lifestyle, and your budget.
