Smell the roses before bedtime

If you like the scent of rose petals, you will love Vanity Planets Flower Child Moroccan Red Clay Mask. This mask smells amazing and you will smell the scent of roses as you relax during your red clay treatment and beyond.

This mask has other fine qualities: The Moroccan Red Clay  gently cleanses and exfoliates your skin. The texture is like powder and you can’t even feel the exfoliation taking place after applied. Your skin will feel soft, fresh and glowing as the clay reduces your  skin’s natural production of sebum. It’s suitable for all skin types but even better for oily skin. I have normal skin and this mask has not dried out my skin at all. It’s even better for oily skin.

It’s easy to use, simply had 1/2 tbls. of power in the palm of your hand and add water to mix until a smooth paste is formed. A nice feature to this mask is you do not have to wait until the mask drys completely. It isn’t even recommended as it could dry out your skin. Right before the mask begins to dry just rinse it off.  You will love how your skin feels and the rose scent is fabulous.

Vanity Planet Flower Child Moroccan Red Clay Mask is an organic powder and helps to stimulate circulation. It is All-Natural, Preservative-Free, Vegan, Cruelty-Free and made in the USA.

Head over to Vanity Planet  and view their extensive line of skincare, haircare, makeup and other health and wellness items.

Coobie Bras: The New Sexy

When you think about it, your bras are some of the most worn items in your wardrobe. If you’re going to spend that much time wearing anything, it darned well better be comfortable! That’s part of the beauty of the Coobie Seamless Bra – a bra so insanely comfy you’ll never want to take it off.

What makes the Coobie the coziest bra you’ve ever worn? For one it doesn’t have those annoying, uncomfortable underwires. It doesn’t have padding that ripples over time either. Hard to close hooks and clasps, you won’t find them here. Coobie bras do have an ultra-soft, dreamy blend of nylon and spandex to support and hug your curves in stretchy, seamless comfort.

Hard to imagine something this comfy can be sexy, but it is! Coobie bras come in oodles of gorgeous colors and patterns, in lace too, to suit your mood and your wardrobe. Whether you’re headed for a night on the town or off to work or the gym, Coobie has the perfect bra for the occasion. Because it doesn’t have seams or hooks, the Coobie sports a smooth, bump-free profile under even the thinnest tee. Its special design with ribbing and ruching makes for a knockout shapely silhouette!

  • Scoop neck: Say goodbye to the hassle of finding the right size. Coobie’s special stretchy fabric blend means one size fits nearly everybody. It comes in a full size too. Available in neutrals and lots of fun colors. Straps are adjustable & removable. Comes with removable, reversible padding.
  • V-neck with Lace: Great under dresses, low cut sweaters and more. This versatile style comes in an array of fun colors with just a touch of lace.
  • Lace Bralette: Soft, stretchy lace creates a feminine, sexy look for everyday wear. Softly lined cups provide coverage without bulk. Can be converted to a racerback style. Comes in S, M, L.

About Coobie:

Coobie products are built on the premise that you shouldn’t have to sacrifice style for comfort. The blockbuster success of its seamless bras created a demand for more Coobie products including camisoles, leggings, underwear and more. Coobie brings comfort, functionality, and style to women across the country.

NYFW’s Cutest Models!

As all the crazy and madness from fashion week has come to an end, I wanted to make sure you saw this season’s cutest AND smallest models to take the runway. This year Cantu hosted the ever adorable McClure Twins to walk in the 2017 Texture on the Runway show.  Not only were Ava and Alexa incredibly cute but their hair looked amazing, thanks to Cantu’s marvelous Global Artist, Maria Antoinette!

Ava’s style: The Braided Half Up Half Fro (Orange Skirt)

Step 1: Start by detangling hair with Cantu Kid’s Conditioning Detangler, followed by cleansing and conditioning with Cantu Kids Tear Free Nourishing Shampoo and Cantu Nourishing Conditioner

Step 2: With dried hair, section the top section from ear to ear and secure the back portion of hair with an elastic band

Step 3: Part out a middle section for the first braid, braid that back all the way to the ends of the hair in that section

Step 4: On each side of the middle braid, braid 5 braids in a diagonal from the center braid back toward the original part, make sure that each braid is braided to the ends. For the 6th braid closest to the ear, part out a section and braid from behind the ear towards the front. These will hang forward, and get decorated with beads. Repeat on both sides of the middle braid

Step 5: Release the large section of hair in the back. Add the Cantu Kids Curling Cream, followed by the Cantu Styling Custard. Make sure all the hair is evenly coated and start finger coiling the curls. Repeat on all the back section of hair

Step 6: Take the braid tails and combine 2 to 3 braids and twist into a Bantu knot at the base of each cornrows. Bead the two hanging forward braids

Step 7: Once the back hair is dry separate the curls and pick at the root for volume

Alexis’s style: The Braided Frohawk (Green Skirt)

Step 1: Start by detangling hair with Cantu Kid’s Conditioning Detangler, followed by cleansing and conditioning with Cantu Kids Tear Free Nourishing Shampoo and Cantu Nourishing Conditioner

Step 2: Section the hair into three sections from forehead to the nape. Creating a Mohawk in the middle and two sections one on each side. Secure each section with an elastic

Step 3: With each side section, install 10-12 cornrows. Leave the ends of the braid loose to blend into the curly-hawk, that will be in the middle

Step 4: With both sides cornrowed down, Add the Cantu Kids Curling Cream, followed by the Cantu Styling Custard. Make sure all the hair is evenly coated and start large chunky two strained Twist. Twist to the ends and then twist into a Bantu Knot. Repeat on the full middle section including the loose cornrow ends

Step 5: Allow those to set a few hours or overnight. Un- twist and pick at the roots to hide parts and create volume.

Step 6: Add colorful hair clips to jazz up the finished look

Treat your hair and scalp to a little tea tree oil

When I am purchasing a Shampoo and Conditioner I always consider my hair type (curly) and then make my decision from there. I always fail to think of my scalp, that’s right, “the Scalp”. The scalp needs tender loving care, just like your hair. That is why I chose Tea Tree Oil Shampoo and Conditioner from Maple HolisticsTea Tree Oil Shampoo and Conditioner will cleanse and condition your hair and scalp leaving them feeling moisturized and refreshed. The added moisture to your scalp will also minimize dry scalp and flaking. The botanical scent is very invigorating and very pleasant to the senses.

What I love about Maple Holistics and their Hair Care products is that they offer therapeutic benefits. The natural tea tree oil contained in the this shampoo can improve hair and scalp health while promoting hair growth and even slowing hair loss. Tea Tree Oil Shampoo and Conditioner is formulated for men, women, and children and the Tea Tree Oil Shampoo is cruelty-free, parabens-free, GMO-free, gluten free, safe for color and all natural.

Tea Tree Oil Shampoo contains only a handful of ingredients like Aqua, Jojoba Oil, Botanical Keratin, Argan Oil, Tea Tree Oil, Lavender Oil, Rosemary Oil. I read on their website that Tea Tree Oil Shampoo and Conditioner can “potentially naturally eradicates lice” (this is an added benefit) if you have school aged children.

Visit their site at www.mapleholistics.com and view the other hair care and body care they have to offer. You won’t be disappointed.  Check out Maple Holistics free sample page  to our free samples page ( https://www.mapleholistics.com/free-sample/)
