Diamonds are a girl's best friend

Irresistible Me DIAMOND flat hair iron (find it here)

Kada sam počela sa pisanjem bloga ni u snu nisam pomišljala na to da ću sarađivati sa toliko online prodavnica i brendova, pogotovo onima van domena mode. Međutim, nakon saradnje sa Japan Fun Box (o tome pročitajte više ovde) stigla mi je ponuda od sajta Irresistible Me da odaberem neki od njihovih proizvoda namenjenih stilizovanju kose, isprobam ga i sa vama podelim svoje utiske. Moj odabir bila je njihova DIAMOND presa, jer sam neko vreme priželjkivala da kupim jednu za sebe, tako da sam iskoristila priliku.
Sudeći po onome što piše na sajtu, ova presa ima keramičke ploče sa zdrobljenim česticama dijamanata pomešanih sa turmalinom, koje bi trebalo da vašu kosu održe svilenkastom i mekom i sačuvaju njena prirodna ulja, tako da se ona ne iskrza. Takođe bi dotična tehnologija trebalo da omogući veću postojanost frizure i kada je veća vlažnost vazduha tako da vam frizura ne splasne gotovo trenutno. Ono što sam sama primetila jeste da je pakovanje izvanredno i da je presa stigla za relativno kratko vreme, bez oštećenja i potpuno funkcionalna, s tim što sam morala da nabavim adapter za struju kako bih mogla da je koristim. Duž njenog gornjeg kraka primetićete lampicu koja vam, zajedno sa majušnim monitorom, pokazuje podešenu temperaturu do koje se vrlo brzo zagreje. Jednostavna je za korišćenje i izuzetno laka u pogledu težine, a ukoliko vam ponestane ideja kako da sredite kosu, od pomoći će vam svakako biti knjižica sa uputstvom za upotrebu i predlozima za frizure. Dugmići za podešavanje temperature i gašenje prese nalaze se sa unutrašnje strane tako da ne može da vam se desi da je slučajno prilikom korišćenja ugasite, a i lako se prihvata, pa se mogućnost da vam isklizne iz ruke i opečete svodi na najmanju moguću meru. Podešena je da se automatski gasi pola sata nakon paljenja i zagrevanja, ali ako se odlučite da je uzmete, predostrožnosti radi preporučujem da nikako ne zaboravite da je ugasite ručno i isključite iz struje.
Koristila sam je ubrzo nakon što sam je dobila da bih vam prenela utiske, i moram reći da me je prijatno iznenadila. Iz predostrožnosti sam podesila najnižu temperaturu i čak i tako je uspela da ukroti moju gustu kosu, koja se ne da lako oblikovati na druge načine. Ne planiram da je koristim prečesto jer ipak nije najzdravije za kosu da je konstantno izlažem tako visokim temperaturama, ali kada poželim da promenim frizuru drago mi je što imam ovakvu presu pri ruci.



When I started writing this blog, never in my wildest dreams have I thought that I'd collaborate with so many online stores and brands, especially outside the domain of fashion. However, after working with Japan Fun Box (read more about it here) I got a message from Irresistible Me with an offer to choose one of their hairstyling products, try it out and share my impressions with you. My choice was their DIAMOND flat hair iron, because I've been wanting to buy one for some time, so I took the chance I got.
Judging by what they say on the website, this hair iron has ceramic plates with crushed diamond particles mixed with tourmaline, which should protect your hair from drying out and losing its natural oils, and make it silky and soft without frizzes. Also, the technology should provide you with a longer lasting hairdo even in air humidity, so that your hairdo doesn't flop as soon as you leave the house. What I personally noticed is that the package is incredible and that the hair iron arrived in a short amount of time, undamaged and completely functional, though I did have to buy an electricity adapter so that I can use it. Along its upper part you can see a lamp which, along with the tiny monitor, shows you the temperature the flat iron reaches quickly after you set it up. It's easy to use and also very light-weighted, and if you run out of ideas to style your hair, a handbook with instructions and hairstyle suggestions that comes with it will surely be of some help. The buttons for setting up the temperature and the turn off button are located on the inside so you can't possibly turn it off by accident, and it's also easy to hold so the possibility of it slipping out of your hands and making you burn yourself by accident is reduced to the minimum. It's programed to turn off automatically half an hour after being turned on, but if you decide to take it, just as a safety precaution I recommend you to turn it off manually and unplug it.
I used it shortly after receiving it so that I can share my impressions with you, and I gotta say it pleasantly surprised me. As a safety precaution I set up the lowest temperature and even so it managed to tame my hair, which is usually demanding to be styled by other methods. I don't plan to use it too often because exposing your hair to such high temperatures isn't the healthiest solution for your hair, but when I feel like changing my hairdo I'm glad to have such a hair iron on my hands.
