My Monthly Favorites - February 2020 Favorite Products & Briogeo Scalp Revival Product Reviews

by Rosy Day Blog

If you’ve read my previous favorites post for January 2020, then here I am doing another combo post. Once again I’ve decided to combine my monthly favorites post with some mini product reviews since the products I’m reviewing this month, also happen to be my February 2020 favorites. After doing a post a few months ago featuring a travel-sized version of a Briogeo product, they contacted me directly to see if I was interested in trying out their Scalp Revival line. I was already very interested in the brand, so naturally I jumped at the chance to try more from Briogeo.

Briogeo

You’ve probably seen Briogeo all over Instagram by now, but no they’re not just a fad or passing trend. In fact, one thing that I respect about Briogeo is that despite being in a market saturated in hair care (sometimes I feel like we’ve hit the peak) - Briogeo still manages to offer high-performance, naturally based hair care with actual visible results. Often times you do see a hair care brand being backed by some celebrity stylist, or sometimes even a celebrity themselves (an actress). Not trying to knock those off (I’m sure they’re all good and offer something for everyone in their own way), but Briogeo brings it back to the basics in a no-frills, just results kind of way. “Brio” is Italian for “vibrant and full of life” - also a nod towards their whimsical/artistic packaging. “Geo” is Latin for “of Earth and nature” - true to the brand’s potent, but natural recipes/formulas. While Briogeo has different lines within their brand, I will be specifically talking about their Scalp Revival line, which I definitely recommend if you have dry a and/or itchy scalp.

Disclosure:

I was not given anything in exchange for reviewing any of these products. I enjoy doing product reviews to share my own experiences with the product and hope someone finds it useful. I do not work for Briogeo. » View All Monthly Favorites

Clean & Silicone Free

Scalp Benefits:

*The following below was copied and pasted from a different post I've written a long time ago as my thoughts below are pretty much the same with regards to the Scalp Revival Line from Briogeo. Finding a good shampoo and conditioner that works for you is just like skincare. Some people might rave about some product, but what works for them may not necessarily work for you. I’ve always struggled off and on with a dry scalp. Often I would think my head looks ok before I leave the house (and I’ve just showered) and then mid-day when I catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror I see flakes forming like I just shook some salt on my head. I first tried using your typical dandruff shampoos but those only seemed to work temporarily and didn’t really tackle my issue. I eventually developed an itchy scalp. Then I figured I’d try shampoos directed towards a dry, itchy scalp, but the problem still persisted. I felt like I needed the hair care equivalent of an exfoliating scrub and hydrating mask. If my story sounds similar to yours or you have a similar problem, you might want to consider going clean and silicone-free due to the benefits below.

Healthier hair - Silicones coat your hair shaft giving it synthetic shine and potentially damaging your hair in the long run.

Hair is more moisturized - Silicone is hard to remove and prevents moisture and essential oils from getting to your hair shaft.

Less itchy/irritated scalp (which can lead to hair shedding) - Ever wondered why your scalp is so itchy, even after you regularly shampoo? Check to see if it contains silicone in the ingredients. Itching/irritation in general doesn’t do anyone any good. Hair will require less washing - While I do enjoy shampooing and conditioning every time I shower (it makes me feel clean & refreshed from head to toe), I do understand if you’re not able to wash your hair all the time. With silicone-free products, you can get by not washing your hair as much and not worrying about having greasy hair the very next day.

More volume - Especially if your hair is typically fine/flat, ditching the silicone will keep your hair cleaner, possibly giving it a more lifted look/volume.

Healthier curls - If you have curly hair, silicone is especially bad for it as it can’t slide off your strands as easily as someone with straighter hair. You can potentially have even greater product build up than someone with straight hair using silicones.

Detox + Exfoliate

Briogeo Scalp Revival Charcoal + Coconut Oil Micro-Exfoliating Shampoo

Sometimes a good (moisturizing) shampoo isn’t enough and you do need a bit of physical exfoliation to slough off the surface dead skin cells you already have on your scalp. According to Briogeo, “This unique shampoo infuses Binchotan charcoal to draw impurities from the scalp and hair follicle to provide the foundation for optimal scalp health.” Peppermint and spearmint oils feel cooling on the scalp and helps reduce itchiness while tea tree oil helps soothe irritation and inflammation. Finally coconut oil adds a bit of moisture to help prevent future dryness and flakiness. This definitely feels nice to massage on your scalp and you don’t necessarily have to replace your existing shampoo with this (if you already have a favorite). You can just use this micro-exfoliating shampoo 1-2 times a week or as needed. Depending on how bad your scalp condition is, you will have to consistently use this a few times until you get your desired result. Then you can dial back the usage a bit for maintenance. The only downside is that since this is in a jar, I’m constantly dipping my wet fingers into this and I feel like a bit of water from my shower always goes in. I feel like the consistency is watery enough to be in some kind of pump bottle Final Rating = 4/5 (Good but I’m sure the ~$42 USD for 8 oz. might turn some people away). » Buy Product

Soothe + Hydrate

Briogeo Charcoal & Tea Tree Scalp Treatment

I’ve never thought about massaging any kind of leave-in treatment onto my scalp until I came across this product. Similar to the Micro-Exfoliating Shampoo, this also contains Binchotan charcoal (to draw impurities), peppermint & spearmint oils (cools & reduces itchiness), and tea tree oil (soothes irritation & inflammation). Instead of coconut oil, this treatment has witch hazel to help balance your scalp and prevent it from getting too oily. Now this doesn’t feel as cooling on my scalp as the shampoo, but whenever I put this on an irritated spot, I do get a bit of that tingling sensation (nothing bad). With consistent use, this definitely works because I’ve been putting this on an eczema-like patch on the back of my head, and it’s been healing faster than before I started using this treatment. Now the patch is almost completely dry and I just have a few leftover dry flakes. This has made the biggest difference on my dry patches, so if you could only afford one product from the Scalp Revival line, I would recommend this. It comes in a small dropper bottle too, so it’s very travel friendly. I like to use this treatment at night before I go to bed and then use the Micro-Exfoliating Shampoo the next morning. The only thing is that I kinda wished this was in a larger bottle or they offered a larger size. Sometimes I just really wanna slather this on, but since it’s so small I have to restrain myself a bit. Other than that, I love this! Final Rating = 4.75/5 (Small bottle but mighty!) » Buy Product

Refresh + Balance

Briogeo Charcoal + Biotin Dry Shampoo

I’ve only tried one other dry shampoo before, and it was the spray kind. Despite it having a brown tint to better blend into dark hair, it did not make my hair feel refreshed. Maybe because I tend to get a bit oily if I don’t shampoo everyday, but that dry shampoo weighed my hair down and didn’t give much life to it. This Briogeo dry shampoo is the complete opposite. Despite it feeling like you’re just squeezing baby powder all over your head, this actually does a nice job of refreshing your hair. Similar to the Scalp Treatment, this also contains Binchotan charcoal (to draw impurities), and witch hazel (to balance scalp). Clay, tapioca, and rice starches are also included to help absorb oil. And since it does combat the excess oil you might have, it also makes your hair have a bit more volume than before you used the dry shampoo. If I dare say, I looked almost as refreshed as if I had taken a shower and blow dried my hair (keyword: almost). Since the previous dry shampoo I used weighed me down (literally), this Briogeo one is my new standard for dry shampoos out there. I would definitely use this for traveling and lazy mornings. I think as long as you take the time to properly blend the dry shampoo into your hair, you shouldn’t have any issues with it (and I have black hair by the way). Final Rating = 4.5/5 (Unless you really dislike the thought of sprinkling white powder all over your head). » Buy Product

Massage Therapy

Briogeo Stimulating Therapy Massager

This in my opinion is the least necessary in the Scalp Revival line. It does not make it a bad product, just that if you don’t necessarily want to spend $16 USD on a scalp massager, you won’t be missing out on too much. However, if you can afford it/want it, you will find it useful. I like to use this in the shower to help spread the Micro-Exfoliating Shampoo, and I’ll sometimes use this on my scalp to help massage in the Scalp Treatment. Of course I can do all these things with my own hands, but I don’t always have nails to really scrub and massage things in. Let’s just say it’s both a luxury and a convenience - one that I definitely won’t complain about now that I have it. Can you buy a cheaper scalp massager? Of course, but I haven’t tried other scalp massagers so I wouldn’t be able to tell you, if you can find anything comparable or better than the quality of the Briogeo one. Definitely a neat beauty tool regardless, and one I’m happy to add to my beauty tools collection. Final Rating = 3/5 (Unless you already have a scalp massager that you love). » Buy Product

NATURAL + PERFORMANCED BASED HAIR CARE

In short, if you have tried everything including those cheap drugstore brands (Head & Shoulders I'm looking at you) and nothing has worked for your scalp problem (or possibly made it worse), then definitely look into the Briogeo Scalp Revival line. I was attracted to the brand in the first place because their Micro-Exfoliating Shampoo had good reviews on Sephora and they had a travel-sized version which I bought during one of Sephora's holiday sales. Of course Sephora reviews aren't always "accurate" in that you can still possibly hate a product despite it getting rave reviews. The small sized Briogeo Micro-Exfoliating Shampoo I tried that time was definitely worthy of praise. I'm thankful that Briogeo reached out to me to try more products after I posteda photo of the travel sized Micro-Exfoliating Shampoo on Instagram. I probably would have tried the other products anyway, but I'm constantly trying to budget so I'm not sure how soon I would have gotten the chance to, had Briogeo not sent me some products to try. Thank you Briogeo and I hope to try your Blossom & Bloom line in the future! If you have any questions about any of the products above, please let me know. Photo Credits: Briogeo

15 Stunning examples of brown and blond hair

A brown and blond hair color is a fusion of all the brunette and blond shades to create a natural, sun-kissed look. The resulting contrast from the dark and light parts gives the hair a nice dimension!

That's why A-Lister celebrities such as Cara Delevingne, Blake Lively and Chrissy Teigen have recently been spotted on the red carpet showing their manes with these timeless brown and blond hair color combinations. You can e.g. golden highlights on maroon or carmel highlights on golden blond hair combined. Professional stylists such as Balayage expert Cristen Smith from SoFlo have been creating different looks with different shades of brown and blond for years, and the results are simply divine!

With the wide range of these two classic shades – from ash gray tones to rich shades to bright gold – anyone can wear this hair, no matter what skin color. The main reason why modern women are crazy about this trend is the vivid, dimensional look that does not require monthly salon visits, which also saves time and money.

Below are inspiring photos of the most popular brown and blond hair!

Balayage brown

This gentle ombre from dark brown to a blonde hue is just wow!

Light brown hair with blond highlights

I see caramel, mocha and chocolate. The whole goodness of a sweet treat in a very delicious hairstyle! Caramel blonde highlights are perfect transition pieces.

Chocolate brown hair with dark blond highlights

Milk chocolate or dark chocolate? Either way, the sweetness of these colors harmonizes with this transcendental look!

Brown and blond hair lowlights

How would you describe this look?

I love blondes, but the only thing that's hard is the upkeep. That was the case with my client. She also loved her blond hair, but needed a little more care. I suggested making a color melt on their roots while adding the lowlights for depth, which in turn makes the blonde stand out more. As for the cut, she's going to breed a bob, so I've trimmed him and given her a side swept bang to give him more style.

Any advice for someone considering it?

If you're a working girl who may not have the time to go to the salon every 4 weeks, this is the style for you. It is trendy and easy to style with just a hair dryer or you can even use a rod for a wave look when traveling for the night. My favorite products I used with her were Brazilian smoothing serum and Brazilian dry oil.

Conversely, blond to brown ombre

How would you describe this look?

I love this look, it's great for our light-haired clients who still want the two-tone look, the darkening of the ends gave them a new look without the harshness and sustaining the change of their roots. I've consistently added highlights and underlights for a certain dimension. The cut consists of only long layers at an angle around the face, styled with a 1 1/2 inch rod for a stranded wave.

Any advice for someone considering it?

This look would be great for a low-maintenance customer of someone with a busy lifestyle, as this look is actually a low-maintenance look for women who have blond to light brown hair, the highlights and lowlights will help blend any solid root as it grows. It is a great option for clients who have long hair because the dark color is not as damaging to the hair ends as a blond brightener. It's a great style for fine hair because the entire color offers more dimension for a fuller look.

Tips for blond hair

How would you describe this look?

This look is a high-dimensional and easy-care spin on the modern blonde. My favorite is that the warm hues in the color make them look natural and "off the beach," while the strategically placed balayage brightens the face and gently grows out between maintenance appointments.

Any advice for someone considering it?

This brown and blond hair color simulates the natural tones in the hair, so that the care is reduced to a minimum. I am a busy woman, so I understand busy women. Being on the go is not easy, but of course it should be nice. Balayage, while all the rage in the hair color trend these days, is so for a reason. It mimics our natural reflection and lightening of the summer sun.

While the color keeps the appearance stress-free, the haircut maintains a comfortable length with soft, textured layers for easy waving and air drying. Not every customer is prepared to use a hair dryer every morning, and if your natural texture can help, you own it! While this photo shows my stylish look, the customer finds this easy handling at home.

My tip for this look is: Keep a purple shampoo and some texture spray!

Brown and golden blonde balayage

How would you describe this look?

This look is a textured, stranded bronze. I like the contrast of the darker pieces of nature that are interspersed with pieces of beige and caramel blond. I like the style of the cut, which has very textured lines and just adds texture to liven it up.

Any advice for someone considering it?

The thing to keep in mind with this look is that it requires several techniques to accomplish it. I used a combination of foil and outdoor balayage to achieve different levels of lightness. Overall, it is still fairly low maintenance, as the balayage only needs to be reworked every 12-20 weeks, but you should always come back toning and trimming every 6-8 weeks. You can also add golden brown highlights for brown hair for a good balance.

Ash-brown and ash blonde highlights

How would you describe this look?

I love this look because of the contrast between the bad light and the highlights and the brown and blond hair colors. It's not too dark or too light and you can feel like a blonde and / or a brunette. This look can be worn straight and wavy and looks like mid-length (bobs) and longer.

Any advice for someone considering it?

While no color is zero maintenance, a color like this can give customers a little more time between appointments, whether you are a natural blonde or a natural brunette. The key to maintaining such a color is the purple shampoo! My favorite is Milkshake Purple Shampoo to keep the tones ashen.

Dark brown and blond hair highlights

How would you describe this look?

This look is warm and rich, with brown and blond hair colors. The styling is effortless and the subtle texture added for the movement.

Any advice for someone considering it?

This is perfect for just about anyone with dark brown hair who wants to add a bit of shine and dimension to accentuate its natural color. I used a smoothing cream to soften her course hair, along with added heat protection so she can keep her curls long and healthy. It is a very low maintenance look for the busy customer who does not have much time to get into the salon.

Platinum Blonde Balayage

How would you describe this look?

It's a fresh, bright and modern setting for a blonde balayage. Balayage allows you to have a dimensional color without the 4-6 weeks of care.

Any advice for someone considering it?

Be realistic about what your hair will do without damaging it. Trust your barber. If a customer is able to achieve this ease, we recommend treating them with conditioning treatments and heat-protection sprays at home. We also recommend that you do not wash every day as this can dry your hair out. Fill in the moisture with a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner.

Ash blonde highlights on dark brown hair

How would you describe this look?

I hand-painted the balayage on three quarters of the head (all hair above the occipital bone) and then attached baby sheeting on top, crown and sides to allow the thicker parts to protrude through the floor.

The haircut is a modern fuck with mixed and textured layers to accentuate the color when worn wavily. The hair was blown off with a 1.25-inch board hairbrush, but the look can also be made with a 1.25-inch rod. My favorite is the ash cone. My client uses violet shampoo and conditioner a week at home to counteract gold tones, and her hair always looks fantastic.

Any advice for someone considering it?

Go to someone who is well trained in balayage techniques. I love the L'Oréal Balayage certification program. If the pieces are richly painted but still mixed, it looks incredible. You want to make sure that your hair is healthy first, before you highlight it and are ready to use professional hair care products at home.

If your hair is super curly, you can also get this color treatment, but the result will look different, as curly hair is not so smooth. A heat protector (eg Kerastase Ciment Thermique) that protects up to 450 degrees of direct and indirect heat is essential, as well as a weekly purple shampoo and conditioner (eg Pure Violet Shampoo and L'Oréal Color Correcting Blondes Conditioner) and a texturizing spray after styling (eg Texture Wave by Shu Uemura).

Although this style requires good products and regular styling, care for the color is not high. People can go up to 4-8 months before this look, as long as there is no gray that needs to be covered. This style is suitable for most face shapes and is suitable for both classic and trendy dressers and personality types.

Brown hair with blond highlights

How would you describe this look?

This is a sunken, vibrant, brown and blonde hair color. My favorite thing about this color is that it looks effortless, as if the customer has just spent a week in the sun. It's a balance between blonde and brown, and the styling has a lanky feel.

Any advice for someone considering it?

This coloring is for a customer who enjoys a low-maintenance hair color. Since the highlights do not start at the root, they grow out more forgiving and the coloring does not need to be cared for very often. It is a very versatile hair color that can be worn by almost all ages and skin tones. The styling products include a curling iron / wand and some hairspray / texture spray. Slightly low in fat.

Golden Blonde Ombre

Just as you pour cream on coffee, the wonderful transition is surprising and yet ideal.

Middle brown hair with highlights

Caramel Smoothie comes right away! The midtones on these are sweet and gorgeous. Spice up your brown hair with highlights and maybe a few lowlights.

Light brown and blond hair highlights

Almond hair with a touch of blonde is good for all the screaming these days. Pretty easy to get and wait, if I may say so.

How do I pick the right shampoo for my Sphynx?

You can feel confident purchasing any of the above shampoos for your hairless feline friend. All the products listed above are high-quality customer favorites. But each shampoo serves a slightly different function from one another.

It is up to you to determine what factors are most important when it comes to settling on a final product. Listed below are some factors that will help you determine which product will best suit your needs.

Skin type

Skin type is the most important factor when it comes to choosing a shampoo. If your cat’s skin is on the dry side, your best bet is a product that contains soothing ingredients such as oatmeal, or aloe vera.

If your cat has oily skin, it is best to choose a product that focuses on cleaning ingredients, such as coconut oil and honey. You can also go with a hypoallergenic formula for the kitties with extra sensitive skin.

Cleanliness

Sphynx are known for being curious and mischievous critters. If your cat’s hobbies include exploring dirty, dusty places such as basements, garages, and under furniture, you should opt for a shampoo that will leave your cat fully cleansed.

If your sphynx prefers to nap on fresh comforters and dust free window sills, a mild shampoo will work just fine.

Cost

While no brand on this list is particularly expensive, cost is always a factor, especially since sphynx cats need frequent baths. You can still purchase a high-quality shampoo for well under $10. While more expensive brands cost about double.

Scent

Your sphynx will not care what they smell like, but you will. Shampoo scents run the spectrum from delicious honey to fresh baby powder. There are always scent free options to those who are sensitive to smells.

Why does my Sphynx need a bath?

Sphynx may look low maintenance due to their lack of hair, but the truth is quite the opposite. Approximately, every 3 to 4 weeks, your hairless friend will need a bath. Self-grooming is simply not enough to keep these fur-free babies clean.

Normally, a cat’s fur helps to draw dirt and oil away from the skin. The hair is then shed, meaning the dirt is left behind on the hair shafts. Since sphynx cats have no hair, the dirt and oil build up on the skin and have nowhere to go.

This leads to your cat’s skin becoming oily and dirty. If not cared for, your sphynx can begin to smell and have skin discoloration.

Additionally, since sphynx do not have a protective layer of fur, their skin is exposed to everything they encounter. Dirt particles from basements, under beds, and dusty window sills will stick to the oils on your cat’s skin.

How should I properly bathe my Sphynx?

To make bath time as easy as can be, you’ll want to bathe your sphynx properly. Listed below are some helpful hints on how to give your cat a stress-free bath.

Before you get your cat in the bathroom and close the door, you’ll want to make sure you’ve set up a relaxing environment to help keep your sphynx calm.

Turn off TVs or loud radios. Additionally, let other members in your household know you are about to bathe your Sphynx.

Ask them to refrain from yelling, running, and slamming doors.

Fill a cleaned bathtub or large tub with a couple of inches of water. You want to make sure the water is warm. Water that is too cold can damage your Sphynx cat’s delicate skin. Water that is too hot can be uncomfortable and burn your cat.

It’s also best to fill up the tub before you bring your cat into the room. The sound of running water and the long wait could make your sphynx anxious.

It is also recommended to place a towel at the bottom of the tub to prevent your cat from sliding along the smooth surface.

Next, place your cat into the tub. Lower your cat into the water paws first so they can become acclimated to the water.

Once your cat is in the tub, you can gently wet it all over except for its head. Follow by working cat shampoo into a lather. Soap your cat all over, paying special attention to the parts of its body that gets the dirtiest, including the stomach, legs, and feet.

Now that your cat is soaped up and scrubbed, you can rinse it off. Pour warm water over the soapy areas until all residue is gone. Be careful to make sure all the soap is gone. If any soap remains, it can cause irritation or clog your Sphynx cat’s pores.

After the body is clean, wash your cat’s head using the same method as used for its body. Be careful not to get any soap or water into your cat’s eyes. Using a soft washcloth can greatly help in reducing debris from getting into their eyes, nose, and ears.

Finally, take your sphynx out of the tub and dry it with a soft towel. Make sure your cat is completely dried off. They can become too cold due to remaining moisture on the skin.

What if my Sphynx hates bath time?

Sphynx are often fond of water. You can find countless videos of this breed happily splashing away in a bathtub. However, not all sphynx will love taking a dip in the water. However, there are steps you can take to help give your water-shy cat a better bathing experience.

Fill the tub neck high. Surprisingly, some sphynx find the submergence into water to be more comforting than just a few inches.

Give your cat a distraction. Perhaps your sphynx only needs a distraction. Try placing a floating toy in the bathwater to keep your cat focused on something else.

Call in for backup. You may have to get another person to help you if your cat does not want to stay in the bath. Having another person can home in handy for keeping your cat in the tub while you soap and rinse it.

Use a warm, soapy washcloth only. It may get a bit messy, but if your cat is terrified of getting into the tub, you can use a wet washcloth instead.

Don’t give up. It may be discouraging to do something your cat abhors, but always keep in mind you are doing what’s best for your cat’s health and hygiene.

Give a reward after. Always be sure to give lots of love and attention to your cat after a bath. It’s not a pleasant experience, so reward your cat with treats and plenty of pets.

What other grooming habits are necessary for my Sphynx?

Baths are a major part of keeping your sphynx clean, but not the only part. Listed below are additional ways in which your cat needs grooming.

Ears

The inside of your cat’s ears can become dirtier than you may think. It is a good idea to clean them out a few times a month. You can spray ear wash into your cat’s ear. They will shake their heads to rid the solution from their ears which is normal behavior.

To fully clean, gently swab a q-tip along all the folds of the ear that you can see. Never stick the q-tip into the ear canal as it could cause pain and damage the inner ear.

Eyes

Sphynx don’t have eyelashes, which means it is more difficult for these cats to keep dirt from getting into its eyes. If you notice your cat has build-up in the corners of its eyes, you can clean it.

Take a warm, damp washcloth and carefully wipe away any dirt from its eyes starting from the outer corner working your way to the inner corner.

Nails

Sphynx cats also need their nails to be in top shape. A scratching post is a necessity for nail grooming. Cats use scratching posts to clean dirt from their nails to dull their nails, and to remove nail sheaths.

You can also carefully clip the tips of your cat’s nails if they become too sharp. This will help prevent ingrown nails and hinder bloodshed if your Sphynx is not a fan of bath time.

Pores

Because sphynx cats are prone to oily skin, they can fall victim to acne or blackheads. Always inspect your cat’s skin to make sure there are no black or red bumps or any irritation.

If you notice clogged pores on your sphynx, you can gently exfoliate the problem area with a washcloth during bathtime. Afterward, take a cotton ball with diluted witch hazel and dab on the affected area.

What is an Ultrasonic Humidifier?

There are three main types of humidifiers – warm mist, ultrasonic, and evaporative – and ultrasonic is one that's rising in popularity. It's considered a cool mist humidifier because the water isn't heated in any way. The way it works is a bit more complicated than the other types out there. Inside the humidifier where the inner workings create the mist, there's usually a small metal plate. High frequency sounds create a vibration against that plate, which affects the water inside the tank. The molecules literally split apart into the mist that's then emitted from the machine.

Why You Might Prefer an Ultrasonic Humidifier

An ultrasonic humidifier uses no heat to create humidity, so it's a safer choice than a warm mist humidifier. These are the types of humidifiers that would work well in a baby's nursery, a child's room, or around pets. There's no risk of an accidental spill leading to burns.

The ultrasonic versions are a bit pricier than evaporative humidifiers, but not by much. Plus, there's no need to buy filters in most cases. You simply pour water in and cool mist comes out. Unlike other humidifiers, these are quieter because there's no fan or boiling of water. It makes for an ideal humidifier in the bedroom.

Of course, all humidifiers have their benefits and drawbacks. Keep reading to find out more about all the pros and cons of an ultrasonic humidifier.

Benefits & Drawbacks of an Ultrasonic Humidifier

The benefits generally outweigh the drawbacks of an ultrasonic humidifier. You'll have to decide for yourself, of course.

Benefits

Noise

Seeing as how there's no fan operating, ultrasonic humidifiers are one of the quietest units you can buy for your home. That means you can keep one in your living room and watch movies without wondering where some random noise is coming from. Or you can keep one in your bedroom without being awoken by your humidifier.

Maintenance

Usually, there are no filters to change, and no bulbs to swap out in an ultrasonic humidifier. You just add water to the tank and turn it on. Cleaning is a necessary part of having a humidifier, and you should probably do it at least once per week, but that's true of any type.

Energy

All humidifiers need an electrical outlet to operate. The difference with the ultrasonic types is that they don't require nearly as much energy to run. So, you shouldn't see much of an increase in your energy bill at all.

Size

Generally, ultrasonic humidifiers are smaller in size than its competitors. That makes it easy to place these humidifiers almost anywhere in your house, such as a nightstand by your bed.

Year-round

Although many people put their humidifiers away when winter has gone, an ultrasonic humidifier can be used year-round to help combat dry air. It isn't just forced-air heaters that can dry out the air in your home – air conditioners do the same. And a cool mist humidifier won't raise the temperature in your house, even during the summer.

Safe

Ultrasonic humidifiers don't use heat of any kind to create humidity, so they're safe to use around children. Even if a spill occurs, the water isn't hot, nor are any of the components. It's one of the safest humidifiers you can use.

Drawbacks

Output

Some humidifiers seem like a good buy based on reviews and price, but you may discover that they don't affect the humidity in your home as much as you'd like. It's important to look at the output of humidity, and make sure the ultrasonic humidifier you choose will raise the humidity as much as you want.

White Dust

The most well-known drawback of the ultrasonic humidifier is that it produces a white dust, which is emitted along with the mist. This dust is just the minerals in the water, and most ultrasonic humidifiers don't filter that out. You can use demineralization additives or distilled water to avoid it, but that gets pricey.

Bacteria

All cool mist humidifiers have a bacteria issues. Water sitting in a tank is bound to grow bacteria, and there's always a potential for mold growth. Warm mist types don't have much of an issue because the heat kills most of the germs off. That means you're going to have to clean your humidifier well using bleach or white vinegar, and white vinegar is typically suggested.

Cost

When compared to other cool mist humidifiers, the ultrasonic is slightly more expensive. You won't spend that much more, but when you're on a budget, this could affect your decision.

Filter: No

Runtime: 50 hours

arrow-right

Capacity: 1.6 gallons

When you have a large space that needs more humidity, you need a humidifier that can handle the job, and the Everlasting Comfort Ultrasonic Humidifier could be the right one. It can add moisture to the air of a space up to 400 square feet in size. The tank holds about 1.6 gallons of water, making it a bit larger than most of its competitors. Another benefit of this humidifier is that it also works as a diffuser, so you can add essential oils to add a calming scent to the room. The runtime on this humidifier is up to 50 hours, so you won't have to refill it every single day, if you keep it on low.

Like other ultrasonic humidifiers, this one is fairly quiet, so you can keep it in any room without being disturbed. Of course, you'll have to clean this unit often to ensure bacteria doesn't build up, and you might have some difficulty getting to every nook and cranny. The LED nightlight is nice extra, so you can keep it on for little ones who are afraid of the dark, or use it yourself to help you find your way to the bathroom at night. Some people reported leaks with this unit, but it didn't seem to be a common issue.

If you need a larger ultrasonic humidifier to add moisture to a big room, this one might work well for you.

Runtime: 30 hours

Capacity: 1 gallon

Essential oil tray: Yes

Unlike most ultrasonic humidifiers, the LEVOIT cool mist ultrasonic humidifier with a 4-liter tank includes filters to help combat that pesky white dust that usually comes with these types of units. There's a ceramic filter that removes impurities in your water, so there's less, if any, dust emitted onto your floor and furniture. There's also a carbon filter, which can be replaced. So, even if tap water goes in, the mist that comes out is clean and purified. You should be able to get about 30 hours of runtime out of one tank of water, as long as you run this unit on low.

You only get two vapor settings with this ultrasonic humidifier: low and high. If noise is a concern, choose the lowest setting. Even on the high setting, though, the sound that comes from this unit is like white noise, so it should be soothing. If essential oils are your thing, you'll likely appreciate the oil try included on this ultrasonic humidifier. Another bonus is the nightlight, which you can turn on or off, as you see fit. The biggest issue with this humidifier is that it may need to be propped up so water flows properly. And leaks were reported, but it didn't seem to be that big of a deal.

If you're looking for a moderately-sized ultrasonic humidifier to add some moisture back to your home's air, then this might be a good unit for you.

PurSteam Ultrasonic Cool Mist Humidifier

Type: Ultrasonic cool mist

Runtime: 17 hours

arrow-right

Capacity: 2.2 liters

arrow-right

Essential oil tray: No

Although the PurSteam Ultrasonic Cool Mist Humidifier is not nearly as large as some of its competition, it's one of the highest-rated and popular units available. The longest runtime for this humidifier is 17 hours, which seems short comparatively, but it's still enough to last through the night and then some, if on a low setting. The quiet operation makes this a good choice for a bedroom, and the little noise it does make is considered soothing by most.

You won't be able to use this one as a diffuser, at least not officially. There's no essential oil tray, but many people have added oils to the tank without issue. And like all humidifiers, this one needs to be cleaned regularly. It's easier to clean than others because you can disassemble it and clean every part. It includes a nightlight, which is helpful in a bedroom, but you can also shut that part off if it bothers you. Defects happen, and this ultrasonic humidifier is no stranger to that, but customer service seems to be on the ball.

If you need an ultrasonic humidifier that doesn't take up too much room, but can still provide humidity for a long time, this one might be worth considering.

TaoTronics Cool Mist Humidifier

Type: Ultrasonic cool mist

Filter: Yes

Runtime: 15 hours

Capacity: 4 liters

arrow-right

Essential oil tray: No

While all ultrasonic cool mist humidifiers work essentially the same way, the TaoTronics Cool Mist Humidifier gets higher marks for having features others in the same price range don't. The tank is a decent size at 4 liters, so you should only have to fill it once per day. At the lowest setting, you should expect about 15 hours of humidity out of this unit, but some have reported up to 24 hours of moisture. Like many other units, this one has auto shut off and a nightlight. You can also set a timer to let it run for a specified amount of time.

One of the best features of this unit is the LED display that shows you the level of mist, the timer, and even the level of humidity in the room. The included humidistat alone might be worth getting this unit. It also has a nighttime mode, which shuts off all the lights, except one, and operates at a quieter level. A filter helps reduce the white dust that's produced, but some still gets through. And this unit isn't that easy to clean. Some areas are hard to reach, so mold can still grow. Some people suggest cleaning this humidifier every two days to keep mold at bay.

If an ultrasonic humidifier with a humidistat is what you need, this might be your best option.

Capacity: 6 liters

arrow-right

Essential oil tray: No

As people buy more and more ultrasonic humidifiers, feedback is shared, and manufacturers improve upon the design of these units. The PROALLER cool mist humidifier shows some of those improvements off. The control panel for this unit has a touchscreen instead of buttons, and the LED screen shuts off when you choose the nighttime mode. There's an included thermostat and humidistat, so you know what the levels are at all times. However, the thermostat only shows the temperature in Celsius, which is an odd choice given this is sold in the United States, as well.

The 6-liter tank capacity is generous, and if you choose the lowest setting, you can get 48 hours of mist out of this machine. At the highest setting, you can still expect up to 18 hours of humidity. There are also two filters that work to keep your water and air clean. You'll have to clean them regularly to keep mold and bacteria away, and this could mean cleaning everything every time you refill the tank. That's probably the biggest issue with this humidifier, it takes quite a bit of maintenance.

If you need an ultrasonic humidifier with a long runtime and a humidistat, this could be an excellent choice for you.
