The foundation for any hair style, use this spray as a pre-styling tool to protect your hair from the hazards of combing, heat styling, and sun damage.

• For all hair types
• Protects against thermal damage

True Religion fan?

True Religion, the jeanswear company, has launched its debut fragrance, True Religion for Women:

Jeffrey Lubell founded True Religion in 2002 with the vision of making authentic, American-made, great-fitting, ’70s-inspired jeans that have timeless, trendsetting appeal. With a similar commitment to timeless style and bohemian-chic flare, True Religion’s image as a leader in edgy apparel has now crossed over to fragrance, or more fittingly, “fashion for the senses.” The clean scent brings out your inner hippie through sparkling fruits; captivating florals; and warm, skin-like musks that embrace you in deep sensuality. It’s as delicious and addictive a fragrance as the image-transforming denim you crave. Make this sexy scent your True Religion.
