A cleansing oil for your hair

The idea of washing my face with an oil scared me for quite a long time (because of my propensity for pimples and all) but once I tried it, it’s become a staple in my evening skincare routine. That was a gateway drug of sorts, because now I use a facial oil in place of moisturizer at night as well—and my skin has never looked better.

So when I came across IGK’s Smoke & Mirrors Conditioning Cleansing Oil for hair, I was intrigued. (I made the jump to cleansing conditioner a while back, so an oil doesn’t seem like that much of a stretch). Formulated with coconut and sweet almond oils that help nourish, strengthen and boost shine as they melt away product buildup, excess oil and make your hair smell delicious, it’s ideal for just about anyone—and especially those with color-treated hair, damaged hair, dry scalp or curls that have a mind of their own. Oh, and it takes the place of both shampoo and conditioner, so you get to skip a step when you're running late in the morning.

I haven’t had a chance to try it just yet—but I would definitely give it a whirl. If any of you beauties have, do tell!
