John Frieda Full Volume Blow Dryer offers 50% faster drying time with no frizz !

John Freida Blow Dryer

 

Again, probably for the one hundredth time, my blow dryer blew out.  So I was in the market for a new blow dryer.  Totally overwhelmed with all the blow drying appliances on the shelves in the stores, I decided to do some research.  I read in  “Real Simple” magazine, John Frieda Full Volume blow dryer was voted one of The “Best Hair Dryers” in 2014.  This lightweight blow dryer is my favorite.  It is high powered 1875 watts blow dryer with a strong air flow, a lightweight AC motor, and a high voltage advanced ionic generator.  It is easy to control with the 2 speed settings, 3 heat settings and a cold shot button. It comes with two concentrator nozzles and a diffuser, each nozzle is angled to a different degree:  Use one to lift, by directing air at the roots, and the other to dry ends and tame flyaways.  Use the diffuser to make natural looking waves by scrunching and grasping the hair between fingertips while blowing.

John Frieda Full Volume blow dryer has a high voltage ionic generator with more power that generates up to 50% more ions.  This ionizing function generates negative ions, which neutralize positive ions in the air.  The neutralization process flattens and smooths the hair cuticle, reducing frizz and leaving the hair shiny and healthy looking instead of drying the hair out.  This blow dryer has a 50% faster drying time even when using a lower temperature.  Infrared heat works on molecules inside the hair, drying it inside and out.  This fast and easy drying process minimizes heat damage and makes your hair less frizzy and eliminates static electricity.

Powerful lightweight AC motor provides up to 3 times longer life, so I won’t be purchasing another new blow dryer anytime soon!  Even a beginner can manage this lightweight John Frieda Full Volume blow dryer tool and use a style brush in the other hand for a salon-style blow out!   John Frieda Full Volume blow dryer created less frizz which equals increased light reflection and more shine!!!  Worth buying!

John Frieda Hair appliances can be purchased at Ulta, CVS and Best Buy

It’s Affordable, Be Beautiful With E.L.F Cosmetics

logo

Who here loves makeup as much as me?! I swear I think I am a hoarder when it comes to this crazy collection of mine. I have always loved makeup, ever since I was little and played with my mom’s makeup while she was doing my hair.  When I go shopping I would rather shop for makeup than anything else.  I have almost every line you could possibly imagine placed somewhere in my house.  But out of all the brands I have and all of the ones I have tested, my most definite favorite is E.L.F. Cosmetics! E.L.F, which stands for Eyes, Lips and Face, is a cosmetics company based in NYC that prides itself in selling high quality, animal friendly makeup that is affordable.

I have always believed beauty should be affordable for everyone. Every woman should have the opportunity to feel beautiful inside and out, and with E.L.F every woman has a chance.  The very first day I used E.L.F I was hooked.  I am a color “junkie” meaning playing around eye shadows is my absolute favorite. I guess it’s a good thing I am studying to be a makeup artist  ( I will post some pictures soon) I have experimented with almost every color and with my E.L.F 150 Eye Shadow Palette you really can. That’s right 150 colors! If you’re not a makeup artist or have not worn a lot of makeup in the past, don’t freak out. E.L.F products come equipped with step by step instructions on the back of all their packaging so you can become your own makeup artist.

Not only does E.L.F  carry some of the best eye shadow pigments I have ever seen, they also carry foundations, concealers, makeup brushes, eye brow kits and so much more! I wish I could tell you about every single product E.L.F carries but we would be here forever if I did (just be sure to keep tuning back for more reviews on E.L.F).  In the meantime be sure to check out

www.eyeslipsface.com  for info on all their amazing products, where you can buy it and check out all of their promotions.  I can guarantee one visit to their site and you will be just as hooked as me.

Feel Sexy With Suave

Body oil is a favorite of many nowadays. I have met many people who say that after their shower they like to smother themselves in baby oil to give their skin a soft, supple feel. The only fall back i here is “it makes my skin feel very greasy”. With Suave Professionals Moroccan Infusion Dry Body Oil Spray you can get stunningly beautiful shine to your skin without that greasy after math.

suave professional

I used to use baby oil after my bath but ended up becoming extremely sensitive and just kept breaking out instead of giving me a nice soft feel.  When using Suave Professionals Moroccan Infusion Dry Body Oil, I didn’t break out, it made my skin feel and smell amazing and I did not have any greasy after math.  Who wants to feel like they just spent 2 hours at the gym right after stepping out of the shower. NOT ME!!! With the Dry Body Oil Spray no more nasty feel and added  incredible moisture. No more “thirsty” skin.

Suave Professionals Moroccan Dry Body Oil can be found in your local drugstores and you can also find it online. Check out the link below!
