This year, Olivia Garden will debut two new Special Edition Breast Cancer Awareness collections: a NanoThermic Ceramic + Ion Brush Set and Shears Set. A portion of proceeds from all sales of these special-edition collections will be donated to Breast Cancer Research.
The Special Edition NanoThermic Ceramic + Ion collection includes four different brushes – 2 1/8” Round Brush, 1 3/4” Round Brush, 1 1/4” Round Brush and Large Paddle Brush – with the latest ceramic technology. A ceramic coated barrel will heat up faster, retain heat longer and reduce drying time to achieve superior, long-lasting hairstyles.
The collection’s tourmaline ion technology hydrates the cuticle and eliminates frizz or flyways, leaving hair looking sleek and shiny. The Paddle Brush features an ionic soft cushion and gentle ball point tips for comfortable use on both hair and scalp.
The Special Edition SilkCut Shears Collection includes a Thinning Shear, Cutting Shear and Deluxe Case (which holds up to two shears and one other item). Each shear features a powerful, handmade razor sharp convex blade with reinforced steel alloy for extra strength. An ergonomic handle design allows for optimal finger rest positions - complete with comfort offset handle, special thumb curvature and micro-adjustable tension knob - to eliminate fatigue and leave hands relaxed for effortless cuts.
Olivia Garden also offers an exclusive SilkCut Service Program, which entitles users to a new pair of shears every time they need a pair of SilkCut shears sharpened.
