Shoppers Are Obsessing Over This TikTok-Viral Hair Mask That Provides ‘Instant Results’—& We Have an Exclusive Discount

Around a year ago, I made the conscious decision to primarily use hair masks instead of regular, run-of-the-mill conditioner. Heftier formulas offer more in the way of reviving split ends, shine and softness on my bleached hair—and let me tell you, the difference this switch has made is astonishing. I’m always trying out new formulas to keep my locks in check, which is why I was wholly surprised to find I had yet to use one of the most revered out there: Coco & Eve’s Like a Virgin Hair Mask. And right now StyleCaster readers can save 15 percent on their order with the exclusive code SC15

First off, this product has so many glowing reviews, it took me who knows how long to sift through a majority of them. But as a beauty editor, I’m here to serve you the facts, which are as follows: This 5-in-1 treatment is capable of so much more than your average conditioner, and can transform the most brittle strands with each 10 minute application. It can be utilized a few different ways: Left on for 5 to 10 minutes before rinsing in the shower, or applying to dry hair and leaving on for up to 20 minutes (or even overnight) for added hydration. Whichever avenue you opt for, make sure to use the included tangle tamer brush to evenly distribute the product.

Immediately after the first use I noticed a difference in my hair,” raved one shopper. “And as someone who is very insecure in my hair, I love that I could see instant results. My hair was very soft, had little to no frizz, and it even helped with oiliness. I went four days oil-free, and my hair never looked ‘flat.’ Absolutely LOVE this product and will be buying again.” 

The “multi-award winning” formula only delivers game-changing results. Ingredients like coconut oil, fig extract, shea butter, linseed, argan oil and probiotic extract restore dry, damaged hair to a shiny, glossy state, define natural texture and curls, revive split ends, tame frizz and flyaways, and last but not least, deeply condition tangles. It’s the perfect addition to a year-round routine, since it protects against the effects of environmental aggressors, such as humidity.

The mask has already made waves across the Internet, racking up thousands of eyeballs on dedicated TikTok videos. Plenty of the before-and-after’s showcase just how easily the mask can take dull strands to visibly new heights, especially when it comes to softness and shine. See here and here.

“Hair was silky soft and full of life after one use. Couldn’t believe it,” raved another fan, while a third wrote, “I have very thick, frizz prone wavy/curly hair that I’ve always struggled with. This masque smells divine and also made my hair so soft and defined my waves and curls by diminishing frizz.”

For an even more noticeable hair transformation, use the hair mask alongside the Coco & Eve Miracle Hair Elixir, a multi-tasking hair oil that aids in quenching dry strands and keeping frizz at bay.

Celebrating 60 & Me’s 10th Anniversary!

celebrating anniversary

Margaret Manning, this website’s founder, has noted recently that this is the 10th anniversary of Sixty and Me, but I don’t think enough fuss has been made of this wonderful fact.

We should be singing and celebrating loudly.

And congratulating her and the people behind the scenes who have kept us together for all these years.

And maybe feeding back a few thoughts in the process!

What Makes a Community?

By coincidence, I was thinking about the Sixty and Me community just one week ago.

I had been approached for an interview for a podcast to talk about my new book about how much I enjoy being old. We writers tend to welcome such opportunities, as it brings us to the attention of a new audience.

We did the interview and after the recording was finished, the podcaster (Deborah Voll) and I chatted. It turned out that she was also a writer for Sixty and Me! What a surprise. She had known this, it seems, but I didn’t. It immediately gave us something in common, like we were both part of something bigger.

Which we were.

And then I thought, Sixty and Me thinks of itself as a ‘community’, and I wondered how much readers had come to feel this to be the case.

Knowing People

I don’t know for certain what makes a community a community, but it must be something to do with feeling that you know and like the people involved.

This made me wonder how many of you have found friends through fellow readers of Sixty and Me. I see it sometimes in the comments, where two women find they have something unusual in common. There are discussions of contacting each other.

  • Have you made online friends with people via Sixty and Me?
  • Have you actually met these friends and continue to meet?
  • Or do you feel you are in a community of like-minded people even though you haven’t met each other?

I then wondered whether you felt you knew the writers on Sixty and Me. When I read a newspaper, there are particular columnists I read on a regular basis and others I read from time to time. But sometimes, I just read an article for its subject matter no matter who is writing.

  • Do you watch out for particular writers at Sixty and Me?

Common Interests

Being a community might also mean that there is a sense of communality between us, of shared experiences and interests.

We write about everything to do with life (makeup, travel, the joys of grandchildren and much, much more) and sometimes death (of our friends or thinking about our own).

We hope that these issues interest you, of course,

  • Do you feel that Sixty and Me is a special place to find discussions of issues that concern you?
  • If so, which topics do you keep an eagle eye out for?

Time

I suspect time helps to build a community. Time to feel part of something bigger than you. Ten years is a long time in our lives.

  • Have you belonged to Sixty and Me for a long time?
  • Does anyone go back a full 10 years?

And time brings changes. Some months ago, I wrote an article about turning 80 and was surprised to find others of that age responding.

  • How many of us 80-year-olds are out there?
  • Is there anyone in their 90s?

Comments, Likes, Shares

And finally, a community is a matter of sharing with others. The site is well set up for comments, likes and shares.

You may not know this, but we writers give our time freely, for the pleasure of thinking it might help someone out there.

And we LOVE it when you comment. It makes us feel that you are really reading. I am equally happy when someone says how much they agree with what I write or when they want to argue. It’s always interesting to hear what you have to say.

  • Do you contribute your own thoughts with a comment or like or share when you are taken by a particular idea?

The Future

If you are minded to answer any or all my questions, I would be happy to write an article pulling together your responses. It would be exceedingly interesting, but I need your input in order to do so.

Sixty and Me would certainly love to hear from you.

So, do you feel 60 & Me is your community? For how long have you belonged to it? Do you follow particular writers, or do you go by topics of interest? What else would you like to share?

Shoppers Say This TikTok-Viral Product Is The ‘Ultimate Skincare Secret’ for Noticeably Smaller Pores


If you purchase an independently reviewed product or service through a link on our website, STYLECASTER may receive an affiliate commission.

TikTok is easily the hottest spot for discovering the crème de la crème of beauty products; from hydrating hair masks that provide “instant results” to face masks that will leave a glazed donut glow on your skin, you’ll find the best recommendations with just the lift of a finger. That includes one Internet-viral pore-refining mask that took the app by storm: Sand & Sky’s Australian Pink Clay Mask, which happens to be on sale with code FLASH25.

This isn’t your typical green clay mask—described by the brand as a “magnet for toxins,” the formula instead leans on gentle yet effective Australian-sourced pink clay (a combination of red and white clay) to remove impurities, dirt, grime and pollutants from deep within your pores. You’ll experience little to no dryness, redness or irritation from use, which is a major bonus for those of us with sensitive, fickle complexions.

Not only does the mask tighten and minimize the look of large, congested pores with each 10 minute application, but the inclusion of kelp and witch hazel (a natural astringent), mangosteen and kakadu plum (a rich source of vitamin C) brighten dullness, even out skin tone and pigmentation and keep acne from rising to the surface. 

Beyond being featured in countless TikTok videos, the clay mask has earned the approval of plenty of shoppers, one of which referred to the product as the “ultimate skincare secret” since it “battles breakouts in a whole new way and resolves blemishes within a couple of days.”

“Everyone needs this! ESPECIALLY anyone with large pores, congested pores, inflammation,” raved a second reviewer. “The ONLY thing that has ever truly made the appearance of my pores smaller (by unclogging them).”

“After YEARS of trying dozens of face masks and never really being super-satisfied with the results, I have to say the Sand & Sky Australian Pink Clay Porefining Face Mask has filled that void, and then some,” shared a third. “I’ve actually been using it for quite a few years—not long since it was released—and it has provided me with the best results of any mask EVER.”

Bonus: It’s completely free of sulfates, silicones, parabens, phthalates, PEGs, gluten, and is cruelty-free and PETA-approved. 

The clock is ticking—add the beloved pink clay mask to your weekly regimen while it’s on sale for 25 percent off with code FLASH25. Pair it with other bestsellers from the brand for the smoothest complexion.
