31VrOo5pQGL31JQLBGRiGL

 

Who doesn’t want to use a shampoo and conditioner that smooths, strengthens and adds gorgeous shin? I know those are the qualifications I look for in a good hair care products. GÖT2b’s Oil-licious Opulent Smooth Shampoo & Conditioner surpasses my high exceptions for the products I use on my hair. In fact, the Oil-licious Shampoo and Conditioner works better then my expensive hair wash that I get from my salon.

Oil-licious has argan oil, which has vitamin E for shine, white grape seed oil, which absorbs easily and helps hair retain a non-greasy texture, and lastly, marula oil, which moisturizes and smooths hair. At first I was skeptical of this product, oil-licious sounds great but the last thing I want in my Shampoo and Conditioner is to make my hair greasy; however that was not the case, the three oils combined make for the ultimate hair product makes hair look and feel incredibly healthy while eliminating frizz—no grease! This product is great if you want healthy, strong, and smooth hair. Oil-licious Opulent Smooth Shampoo and Conditioner has “GÖT2b” in my shower!     Visit got2b and check out their great haircare products!

Rimmel London Scandalized

Rimmel London Scandaleyes Mascara

Rimmel London Scandaleyes Mascara

When it comes to wearing makeup, Mascara is like a girls best friend. Personally, I can’t leave the house without putting on a little bit. Whether your going on a date, getting ready for a night out with the girls, or running out of the house late for work, the lashes are something every girl wants to be longer, bolder and fuller. When somebody looks at your face the first thing they notice are two things: your eyes and smile. The perfect solution to this is to apply Rimmel London Mascara.

This is the perfect mascara for any occasion. Its Scandal eyes formula creates a subtle but daring look to your eyes that make people want to look… maybe even a double take! If your going to go see a sad romantic movie and knowing your going to shed a tear or two you don’t want your makeup running down your face. Rimmel London Scandal eyes is also waterproof! Perfect for any eye color. To spice up your eyes even more, add some eye shadow to complete the look. I would recommend this mascara to anybody. Definitely stocking up on this one!

Beauty in Seaweed

If it’s good enough to put in your body, it’s good enough to put on your skin. That is what I have always said and believed. With Repechage Beauty from the Sea skin care, you can experience an all-natural skin routine made with seaweed with results you will not believe.   CEO and Founder of Repechage Lydia Sarfati has created the first line of seaweed- based skincare released in the U.S. She is the developer of the 4 layer facial and opened the first day spa in 1977 in Manhattan.

While at Premiere Orlando, in the midst of my hectic schedule, I got to stop and experience a relaxing facial from Repechage Skin Care.  While there I learned all about how their seaweed is found by professional divers in the oceans of France and brought back to Repechage headquarters in New Jersey.  After my facial was over (I didn’t want it to end) I also got to experience their line of mineral makeup and bring home samples of their new line of hair care as well. 

Everything I tried from Repechage I LOVE. With me having extremely sensitive skin, there are only a few lines of cosmetics, and hair care that I can use. Repechage is one I can. 

When I got home I gave myself a head to toe treatment with the Hair Spa Seaweed Mask, Hair Spa Serum,  Hydra Medic  7 Step skin care and topped it all off with Perfect Skin Liquid Foundation.  It was my own home spa day from the sea J

Every product is formulated with select seaweed plants.  Little did I know there are various kinds of seaweed and each product as its own special blend.  The only kind of seaweed I thought there was is the kind on sushi lol.

Next time you are looking for a relaxing spa day, a clean and natural way to cleanse your face, or give yourself an at home hair treatment, go for Repechage Beauty from the Sea products. To see where you too can find a Repechage salon, and get your own at home treatments visit www.repechage.com

The Sea Awaits!!!!

Love Your Lashes with Mink

  

Eyelashes are BACK!!!!!  Since their first appearance in 1916, false eyelashes have come a long way.  While at Premiere Orlando, I got to try out the newest trend in false eyelashes.  Lash Love’s 100% Siberian Mink Fur Eyelashes come in an assortment of styles to match everyone’s personality. Co-Founders, April and Kristyl Nelson, create their lashes with love and care. Lash Love’s mink fur eyelashes are only made with fur collected during the mink’s shedding season. 

Until I met Lash Love I had only worn false eyelashes one other time.  I was a little nervous about how they would look on me.  When Kristyl slipped me into a pair, I had no idea I was even wearing them.  They were very light weight, soft and natural looking.  I felt like a movie star (also it could have been the crystals on them as well 🙂 lol).  

With Lash Love eyelashes you can skip a big part of your daily makeup routine.  When in a hurry (like most women today) you can put on a pair of your Mink Lashes and not even have to worry about eyeliner, mascara or eye shadow.  They really open your eyes and give the illusion that you had spent hours getting ready. 

So next time you are in search of false eyelashes, I strongly suggest Lash Love.  You too can pick up a pair of Mink fur lashes at www.shoplashlove.com Beauty is in the eyes.

Unleash Endless Styling Possibilities with White Sands Undercover Styling Spray

 

White Sands Undercover Styling Spray

White Sands Undercover Styling Spray

I got hooked on the product line of White Sands a while ago. My first experience with White Sands was with Orchid Bliss Shampoo and Conditioner.  I can not live without it now!  It gave my hair shine, strength and controlled my frizz!  I felt confident and  safe using this product on my hair.

I have been looking high and  low for a styling spray that actually “WORKS”! Again I turned to  White Sands…..and sure enough (they never let me down) I found  it!  White Sands Styling Spray is a do-it-all hair spray that provides high shine and hydration to style for a beautiful looking head of hair. It controls the frizz with thermal protection for  curly, sleek, straight, beach scrunch, 20’s wave or 60’s flips natural  feeling hairdos!  Anything can be imaginable with White Sands UnderCover Styling Spray. It is the first gluten and paraben free product with extreme moisture for endless styling possibilities.

One busy morning, I sprayed White Sands UnderCover Styling Spray on my dry hair and then  I braided my hair….. it held in all day with an ultimate shine.  That night rushing around, trying not to be too fashionably late for  an event. I did not have the time to shower and style my hair (the  story of my life) so I unbraided my hair and went on my way. The natural, soft feeling waves were to die for!  Another time I sprayed  White Sands UnderCover Styling Spray after shampooing my hair, I let  it dry naturally for a scrunch, texturizing look. Never the stiff,  wet or greasy look.   never have to worry about “A Bad Hair Day” I love spraying this product on my hair before straighten it too. The  shine and softness of your hair is like stepping out of a salon.   Now  I understand why they named this styling spray “UnderCover”…..it unleashes the secret to providing endless styling possibilities for a different look everyday! You can find this spray and more fabulous products at whitesandsproducts
