Product Review: Eva NYC Haircare

I was at ULTA last week and I stumbled upon this haircare line called eva nyc. I am a sucker for great packaging and that is got me into buying these products. Not to mention ULTA was running a bogo (Buy one get one 1/2 off). The shampoo was $8.99, the hair mask was $14.99 and the hair oil was $7.50 and on top of all that I got the $3.50 off). So I don't remember the exact total, but it was pretty good because previously I had checked their prices online and the hair mask alone is $34 . Anyway, so I tried all the products out and the common ingredients in all of them are argan oil and keravis. I was reading about Keravis an its basically hydrolyzed vegetable protein.

The clean it up shampoo is a clarifying shampoo which is not clear but rather milky, pale pink in appearance. This isn't a sulfate shampoo and that's a good thing because my hair doesn't understand sulfate-free.A little goes a long way and it really gives a good clean feeling to your hair. It isn't too moisturizing but then again it is a cleansing shampoo. I think using it everyday might be too harsh for the hair. Leaves an amazing musky scent in your hair. Hubby quite approved of the smell.
The Therapy Session Mask smells just like the shampoo--sooo amazing. Actually all the products in this line smell the same--kind of musky and perfume-y.I like it. This mask has the texture of any other deep conditioning hair mask. Although I find it not as silicone-y as some other hair masks I've tried before, I think that actually might be good for the hair.  After using it, my hair didn't feel too heavily moisturized but it felt kind of strong and left my hair smelling divine.
This is more like a serum to use on wet or dry hair. It contains dimethicone as its first ingredient followed by hydrolyzed vegetable protein, obliphica oil, argan oil, wheatgerm oil, jojoba oil, etc. The ingredient isn't as long as many of the serums in the market and most of them can be pronounced which makes me happy. I did find the consistency a bit too thick and since there is no dropper, you do end up using too much. Once again it smells like the shampoo and hair mask. I think with more uses I will know how I truly feel about these products but so far, I think they are pretty good.
