Now this is another foreign company trying out the INDIAN market... I stumbled upon their outlet in Mantri Square mall situated in Malleshwaram (BENGALURU) while I was checking out the mall...
Those of you all who have not yet checked out Mantri Square mall have to check it out...
I tried finding out more info about this brand by viewing out their web site but the site is so poorly done...

I'll put up the link, you all can check it out to at least have an over all view of their items...

review of "OSIS FLATLINER " heat protectant for the hair

OSIS FLATLINER is manufactured by Schwarzkopf company which is German.. This is a thermal heat protectant for hair which is designed to withstand 200C deg... Upon using this protectant I have noticed that it doesn't leave my hair with that stiff, crispy texture, oily, sticky, but it does tangle up my hair before I'm done with straightening my hair... This also doesn't weigh my hair down (I totally hate weighing down as it makes hair look flat), holds my hair straight up to 3 days which is not a bad deal (but I would still like something that would last atleast for 5 days or so)... This product basically protects the hair from the external heat that its getting bombarded with like hair dryer's / straightners / rollers / etc... If we continue to use such heat on our hair they in due course start dying as they are being ripped of their natural oils.. I wash my hair and let it air dry completely, then I section my hair and spray the sectioned hair... Wait for it to dry which takes like 2 minutes (I do some paper / house work while I wait) then I straightenen.. I then repeat the process till I'm done.. Careful while spraying, if any gets into your eye wash away instantently... This contains
AQUA (WATER)

ALCOHOL DENAT

VP/VA COPOLYMER

HYDROLYZED SILK

LAURDIMONIUM HYDROXYPROPYL HYDROLYZED WHEAT PROTEIN
CETRI MONIUMCHLORIDE
PHOSPHORIC ACID
Smell's kinda strange... But you only smell it coming out of the bottle, it doesnt really make your hair smell...


Flatliner comes in an aluminium bottle with spray application and can be set in open or close position, so your spray doesn't leak while travelling...

You can buy this in stores that sell beauty products to salon's, in big / Schwarzkopf salon's....I bought mine from Jain Brothers which is situated near Richmond circle very close to Baldwin Girl's High School.. I have just emptied my 1st bottle and have to 1 soon...

For 200ml it costed me Rs. 625/- ...

review of " LACTO CALAMINE" lotion

Is a lotion used on face mostly, its non - greasy, it has a light pink colour.. For people with dark skin I would advise them to use it indoor cos it makes the face appear a bit whitest..
It comes in 2 kinds

LACTO CALAMINE CLASSIC SKINSURANCE
FOR OILY TO NORMAL SKIN (I'm using this)&
LACTO CALAMINE ALOVERA MOISTURISER

It's used to obtain even skin tone, clearer looking skin, rids the skin a bit from oil according to me....According to the product it should give you nourishment, acne & oil control, dead skin removal and protection... It's been in market for a long time... They don't advertise & yet people know about the product it sells by word of mouth..

Before using its better to shake the bottle well and then apply on face.... Can use any amount of times... Best is to re apply after washing face... As for me i see the best results when i apply the lotion before sleeping...

Ingredients are
aqua, zinc carbonate, emulsifiers, preservative's, perfumes (mild scent) & permitted colours..
light kaolin - coagulate (To cause a liquid to change into a curdlike or semisolid
state)

Castor oil - increases circulation and heals the tissues
glycerin - acts as humectant (a substance that promotes retention of moisture)
zinc oxide - skin protecting and anti-microbial

LACTO CALAMINE cost's Rs.72 for 120ml per bottle

You can get it @ any pharmacy store, that's where i get mine... If your staying abroad where its not available easily just scout the net and by it on-line.. I'm using my second bottle now and am happy with the results... Do make sure to do a sample test on your skin before using it... I had no side effects or any reactions but I always say no harm in being to sure...
