If you know your beauty vloggers you’ll know Ruth Crilly from A Model Recommends. A regte beauty fanatic and international model, Ruth uses her website as a platform to share all the insider tips she’s picked up during her decade long career.
Now, she’s teamed up with a bunch of experts to create a dry shampoo called Colab that’s just hit the shelves at selected Clicks stores.
Ruth reckons Colab sits apart from the rest as it’s incredibly sheer to the point of being invisible (no more powdery-feeling roots) and her five variants boast scents that are sophisticated as opposed to cutesy.
Each of the fragrances is named after a fashion capital and the word on the street is that London, a mix of bergamot, musk and magnolia, is sexy as hell while Rio, a tropical mix of pineapple, papaya and cassis, smells good enough to eat. (Full disclosure – I’ve yet to true Colab so I can’t serve up any kind of review just yet but watch this space.)
Win! Win! Win!
To celebrate the launch of Colab the brand is going to be at the Beauty Insider expo at Katy’s Palace Bar in Jozi on Tuesday the 10th of November and is giving away two sets of tickets and, if the sponsors are anything to go by, this goodie bag’s going to be good.
Beauty Insider is an avie and eve of all things glam that includes workshops, samples and discounted shopping as well as pop-up stands for make-up touch ups, blow dries and manis. You also get to snap up a free three-month subscription to either Marie Claire, Cosmo, Good Housekeeping or Goeie Huishouding magazines.
To enter, simply leave a comment below telling me which Colab dry shampoo scent you’d most like to sniff and be sure to like the brand on Facebook over here.
To score a second entry, hit me up on twitter with the following: ‘Hey @lipglossgirl! I’d love to win tix to Beauty Insider thanks to #ColabSA’ and include the link to this post. Again, don’t forget to like them on Facebook.
This competition closes on Monday at 120pm. A winner will be drawn via random number generator. Colab SA isn’t paying to transport anyone to Jozi so it’s best you enter if you live there, can get there or have a Jozi bestie you can gift them to.
Good luck girls!
Love, love

Since growing my hair from a brushcut to shoulder length, daily washing is out of the question. However, I have yet to find a true dry shampoo which cleans and freshens my hair. Davines is great at freshening but doesn’t clean; while Batiste is just powder in a spritz bottle which leaves my hair dull and caked.
I’m intrigued by the promises this product is making and dying to give it a try. Long story short: Please Pick Me, Auntie Leighly.
PS: My preferred fragrance, Paris, of course;) Cxxx
London!
I’m definitely keen to try the London scent, sounds right up my street 🙂 Holding thumbs!
Oooooh…hmm..Its a toss up between Paris and New York. Loving fruity tones but Floral has always been my friend (and I adore that city 😉 )
