Kerasilk Hydrating Essence

They say: A hydrating hair essence that features biomimetic silk and four per cent betaine. The vegan-friendly formula is concentrated like a deep conditioner but with a lightweight, water-like consistency. The in-shower essence treatment promises to double hair hydration with one use.

We say: Most hair could use a little hydration help, our tester’s included. She applied this watery essence to her hair after shampooing, in place of conditioner. After styling her strands, she noted her hair appeared more smooth and shiny.

Seen Leave-In Conditioner

They say: A leave-in hair conditioner that detangles, delivers hydration, protects against heat, UV and pollution and more. The clean formula features hemisqualane, moringa oleifera, and plant sugar-derived squalane to hydrate and boost strands.

We say: A diehard leave-in conditioner fan, our curly haired tester applied this lotion-like leave-in formula to her cute, cropped coif. The product gave strands instant moisture, assisting with tangles, too. After styling, she reports her hair looked less frizzy but yet still nicely carefree.

Three of the best products we tried this week. Here's why.

Tatcha The Longevity Serum

They say: A new face serum from the Japanese skin care brand Tatcha that features a hybrid gel-oil format. Infused with the brand’s proprietary Okinawa Cellescence Complex, the serum addresses signs of skin aging such as loss of firmness and collagen.

We say: Don’t let the “gel-oil” description scare you. Yes, I’m also talking to you if you steer very clear of face oils. This unique serum gives skin the most welcome of deep drinks. Our tester applied this serum following a long-haul flight and found it instant boosted moisture levels, while also giving skin a revived appearance. (No sad post-flight skin, here!) We’re excited to see what this Tatcha skin release does for skin over the long term.
