Glam Bag! June 2012

  So I know I dont have a May GB but that is because they never sent it to me. Thankfully they didnt charge either. This GB was one of my favorites!
  • NYX Round Lipstick in Orange Soda-A pale creamy orange that looks so natural when it is blended out. It makes blue eyes pop! I never would have bought it so this was a blessing!
  • (no) frizz Living Proof Nourishing Styling Cream- I use anti-frizz cream nearly everyday! So new things are welcome!
  • Philosophy: Take a Deep Breath- I think this is a moisturizer but I have always wanted to try Philosophy!
  • Marbella Permanent Eyeliner Pen in 30-Eyeliner is one of my favorite things in the world! This says it is not safe for contact lenses but it didn't bother me. It lasts very very long!
It was small but the lipstick and eyeliner are great and the other two are things I am always up for trying! Much Love!!!

Hair Health 101

 Hey everyone! Before I get started, I want to shout out to two people on blogger who wished me a Happy Birthday: Musings of Athena and Show Your True Colors  Thanks guys! I thought that I could do different sections: treatments, shampooing, styling, random. So lets start!
 EVERYDAY:
~Using a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner will be the best thing to reduce frizz.
~An anti-breakage cream will do more than just that. It can make your freshly styled hair look very polished and finished.
 TREATMENTS:
~1 Tablespoon of coconut oil that is melted, and put in to damp hair, makes a wonderful healing treatment. You dont need a lot if you hve short hair. Rub it on your scalp all the way to the ends. Leave it on for 2 hours and shampoo. I dont use conditioner either.
~A mixture of an egg yolk, plain yogurt, and coconut oil applied to the hair for an hour or hour and a half, will be a really moisturizing mask that will make your hair healthy and glossy.
 STYLING:
~Always Use a Heat Protectant!!! Even for blow drying! I use Garnier Fructis Flat Iron Protectant. it is $3.50 @ Walmart and smells amazing. Please use something like this. Everytime I blowdry without, my hair feels brittle and sad. . .
~When using a new styling tool, always try the lowest hat setting and go up until you get the perfect style! less heat = happy hair!
 RANDOM:
~Dont use rubberband or things that could tear your hair out to put it up. If you need to, cut them out, not pull.
~Try to wash your combs and brushes to wash off any product and dirt and nasty stuff on them for cleaner hair! Just fill a bowl with warm water and facial soap and rinse for a few seconds.
   I hope enjoyed! Love you guys! <3
