Schwarzkopf Professional BC Bonacure Oil Miracle Oil

I have envisioned this to be a review and comparison in one, for all those wondering if these two oils differentiate. And oh boy, do they? They're completely different. The first difference you'll encounter is the packaging (the cardboard box, I mean). It's black and looks more as a part of the entire BC Bonacure Oil Miracle range. All products come in black jars and tubes, except for the Light Finishing Treatment which comes in a creamy beige box. The main difference between these two oils is that the light version is made for fine to normal hair types whilst the standard oil (standard finishing treatment) is made for normal to thick hair types. My hair is crazy oily at the roots but my ends are now pretty dry and frizzy. To clarify, nowhere near thick, by any stretch of imagination. I was concerned if this new oil would be too thick for it to bear. When I compared the ingredients, I found that they're pretty much alike. Some ingredients switched places while the true difference is the added Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil in this richer version I'm featuring now. That, ladies and gentlemen, is 100% Argan Oil. And that makes this oil special and very nourishing yet not too heavy. Both oils contain Heliantus Annus Seed Oil (read: sunflower oil) but the light version contains no argan oil.

Zamislila sam ovu recenziju kao 2u1 post – recenzija ali i usporedba i to bas za sve vas koji ste se mozda pitali da li se ova dva ulja u necemu razlikuju. I zaista, ima li razlike? Vjerujte da znacajna razlika postoji i to po vise stavki. Prvo sto ce oci primijetiti jeste drugacija ambalaza tj. crna boja kutije u kojoj je ulje zapakovano. Zbog tog detalja djeluje kao da je uistinu dijelom BC Bonacure Oil linije proizvoda jer su svi u crno obojenim posudama i tubama. Jedini izuzetak je Light Finishing Treatment cija je kutija krem bez nijanse. Osnovna razlika izmedju ova dva ulja jeste da je light verzija namijenjena za tanku do normalnu kosu a klasicno ulje (u crnoj kutiji) je namijenjeno normalnoj do gustoj kosi. Moja kosa se nevjerovatno masti pri korijenu dok su krajevi suhi i skloni da budu zrtva naelektrisanosti. I moja kosa ni na koji nacin ne bi mogla da se opise kao gusta. Ono sto me brinulo jeste da ce mi ovo ulje (koje jeste namijenjeno gustoj kosi) biti previse tesko i previse hranljivo za njene potrebe. Kada sam usporedila listu sastojaka oba ulja, dosta su slicna po tom pitanju. Nekim sastojcima je samo izmijenjen redoslijed ali ono sto jeste dodato je Argania Spinosa Kernel ulje. Ono se nalazi u hranljivijem ulju a ovdje se radi o 100% cistom arganovom ulju. I to je ono sto cini razliku izmedju ova dva ulja te je zbog toga verzija za gustu kosu dovoljno hranljiva ali ne i masna. Oba ulja sadrze i Heliantus Annus Seed ulje (to je suncokretovo ulje) ali arganovo ulje se nalazi samo u jednom.

If you compare the two bottles, you find that one is yellow (fine hair) and the other is orange (thick hair). This, however, means nothing since both bottles are colored and what does vary is the consistency, thickness and smell of these oils. Neither oil smells fresh but the light oil definitely smells lighter and fresher. The classic finishing treatment smells more honey-like and sweet. The texture is drastically different. While the light treatment is more wattery-like, the classic treatment oil is much thicker and resembles the texture of honey (as the case is with its color and smell). These two oils have different coloring as well. While the light oil is almost clear when applied on the skin, the classic treatment oil is indeed orange-y. Due to its thickness, I think that it will last longer than the light version because one small squeeze out of the bottle is all you really need. Okay, perhaps two pea-sized blobs will do for long hair. I really like the dispenser, it gives so much control so there's no spillage. I like the curvy shape of the bottle as well which reminds me of a female silhouette.

Ako postavite bocice jednog ulja pored drugog, ocigledno je da je jedna bocica zute (light verzija) a druga narandzaste, jantar boje (hranljivije ulje). No ovo mnogo ne znaci posto su bocice ustvari u boji. Ono u cemu se zaista razlikuju jeste konzistencija, gustina i miris. Niti jedno ne mirise svjeze no light ulje je dosta blazeg, cak laganijeg mirisa dok je ulje za gustu kosu medenih mirisnih nota, nesto je sladje. Tekstura im je u potpunosti razlicita. Dok je light ulje blago vodenaste konzistencije, ulje za gustu kosu je dosta gusce a teksturom dosta lici na med (bas kao sto mu slici po boji i po mirisu). Pa i sama ulja su ipak razlicitih tonova. Dok je light verzija ulja skoro pa bezbojna kada ga nanesete na kozu, hranljivo ulje je zaista narandzasto. Bas zbog vece gustine, mislim da ce hranljivije ulje duze potrajati od lihght verzije posto je potrebno istisnuti jako malu kolicinu po upotrebi. Eventualno ce dvije kuglice ulja velicine zrna graska moci pokriti krajeve duge kose. Dosta mi se dopada otvor bocica posto je njim moguce dozirati kolicinu ulja koja vam je potrebna bez bespotrebnog rasipanja proizvoda. Simpatican mi je i zakrivljeni oblik bocice, nalik zenskoj silueti.

Both oils come in 100ml bottles and the light oil bottle lasted me for 4 months of everyday use. I think that there's an extra month with the classic, richer oil. I do go through these oils rather quickly but they make my hair so much prettier, softer and healthy-looking. When the light oil doesn't tame the frizz, this oil will. And the hair has a silky texture under the fingers. I apply them in the following order: one squeeze of a pea-sized blob on moist hair after washing and towel-drying. It makes all the knots and tangles unwind. Then I dry my hair until it's 80% dry, comb it through and then apply another small blob of oil. After I've dried my hair completely, I'll usually leave it at that or get a tiny drop to smooth any persistent flyaways. Hair is shiny and smells amazing. In the long run, these oils do soften the hair, make it more manageable and efficiently mask any damaged ends. They are pricy but if you ever come to Bosnia, please do try to get a bottle at least because I got these on sale for approx 8$. And you thought that finding it online for 22-25 pounds was a bargain. Pfft…

Oba ulja dolaze u bocicama od po 100ml a light ulje mi je potrajalo cetiri mjeseca svakodnevne upotrebe. Mislim da ce hranljivo ulje za gustu kosu da mi potraje jedan mjesec vise jer je stvarno potrebna jako mala kolicina po nanosenju. Istina, prilicno brzo trosim ova ulja ali uopste ne zalim zato sto mi je kosa konkretno zbog njih dosta ljepseg izgleda, meksa je i djeluje zdravije. U slucajevima kada mi light ulje ne pomaze u potpunosti ukrotiti naelektrisanje kose, tu nastupa ulje za gustu kosu. Primijetila sam da je kosa nakon duzeg koristenja postala svilenkastija pod prstima. Ulja nanosim na slijedeci nacin: kolicina zrna graska bude nanesena na tek opranu i peskirom istapkanu kosu (nemojte je dodatno trljati peskirom jer upravo to izaziva dodatnu naelektrisanost). Trenutacno olaksava rascesljavanje kose i rijesi problem vecine cvorica i zapetljanih dijelova. Nakon toga osusim kosu fenom dok otprilike 80% kose ne bude suho te nanesem jos ulja velicine zrna graska. Nastavljam sa susenje fenom i nakon sto je kosa potpuno osusena, vecinom nista drugo ne bude potrebno dodati. Eventualno jos kapljicu ulja za nestasne dlacice (kako ih vec zovemo “antenice”). Kosa nakon toga bude jako sjajna i mirise prekrasno. Tokom duzeg koristenja, kosa uistinu bude omeksana, lakse je oblikujem i osteceni krajevi su dosta dobro prikriveni (sto je odlicno ako ne zelite jos neko vrijeme da skracujete kosu tj. kupujete vrijeme). Ova ulja u BiH kostaju 26KM u cm trgovinama no izvan zemlje su dosta, dosta skuplja. Na ponudi u online shopovima kostaju cca 22-25 funti tako da definitivno preporucujem posjetiteljima BiH da nabave barem jednu bocicu ovih ulja. To ce biti isplativa kupovina, posebno ako ste zaista mislili da cijena od 22 funte zaista ne moze biti niza.
