Co washing, exercise, L'Oreal HIP




Okay....so I am cowashing my hair.... by the way Saturday mornings are great for hair washing... anywho...so far so good.... Although my hair is still wet...I am loving the way that it feels. It feels really soft. The main reason why I wanted to do this co wash is because I re-touched my hair the other day and I wanted to restore moisture. I hope to post some pics later on today after I finish.... BTW I am using Suave JUICY APPLE. It smells DELISH!!!!!!!!!!!!




Anywho 2: I haven't exercised in a while and I definitely need to get back on it.... I have slacked off quite a bit. I 've been a member of Curves for nearly a year and have lost about 20 lbs total. WOOT! and I got an elliptical machine recently. I need to get back on it! I feel so much better when I exercise and eat right but sometimes....I just get way off track. If you have a Curves in your area and you are looking for a great place to work out and only want to be there 30 minutes...give them a try I actually love the environment.




Anywho 3: CVS has BOGO Free on HIP Products... Definitely more bang for your buck... I love these shadows. They have great color payoff and they are INEXPENSIVE.

Deluxe Palette Review, Co washing, hmmmm

If you have not tried Urban Decay's Deluxe Palette, you don't know what you are missing... I loveeeeeee it! It doesn't leave my counter....I have been using it since I got it. The neutral colors are the bomb!!! (How old is the bomb?) lmbo...Anywho.... if you are looking for great shadows and want more bang for your buck, look no more! 2 snaps and a clap for this one!
  • It has great color payoff
  • Great neutral colors as well as bright fun ones
  • Packaging is great too! Velvet with silver mesh on front....
  • 5 out of 5: I'm lovin it!

Anywho, on another note. I think that I am going to co wash my hair this weekend. I have never tried it... For those who don't know what co washing is...It's washing your hair with conditioner. I heard it yields moisture to the strands and makes it softer. I'm hoping mine feels like silk afterwards... lmbo... I will keep you all posted on the outcome. Oh and I heard that you should do it with something inexpensive like VO5.... If you know anything about co washing or you've done it before let me know how it turned out. Talk to ya lata! Bye!!!!!!!

Hello Kitty Lippies











So, I got three products from the hello kitty line. I got the sweet strawberry lip glass; middle pic last gloss. It is a very sheer pink with a hint of glitter; it's okay...definitely nice if you want a high shine gloss. It will also give lips a slight pink tint. I got fast friends, the bright purple, last pic, last gloss; it is not hot purple when you put it on though, which is really great for me. It too has a hint of glitter; it's nice. Finally, I got the light purple lipstick, fashion mews. I really like it. It's not outrageous, very subtle....It's definitely a keeper. The over all line was just okay. My rating is a 2.5 out of 4. Remember this is just my opinion.... You all let me know what you think...puleeze..... I am really wanting you all to post your opinions of some things.

Motions Oil Sheen


My sister recently told me that she is now using Motions Oil Sheen. I too decided to try it. It's pretty good. It is not heavy at all. It has an odd smell though. I give it a 3 out of 4.

Beautiful Lengths




The shampoo and conditioner that I have begun to use more recently is Pantene Beautiful Lengths. It's really great! Less breakage and great feeling hair afterwards! 4 out of 4!

My Fav Hair Products














So...one of my good friends asked me what products I have been using lately.... So, here they are. I loveeeee Mizani Shyne Bodifying Sheen; it's not too heavy, in fact, it is a very light formula. I've been using it since 2002 or 2003. So, you can probably tell that I live by this stuff. Tresemme' Tres Two Ultra Fine Mist Hair Spray is next on the list. It is not sticky at all...that's what I really love about this product. Before curling my hair, I use the next two products: Tresemme' No Frizz Ultra Light Shine Spray and Motions Heat Seeker Protecting Spray. I love both of these too. I'm always looking for something that is extra light, because I don't want it to weigh my hair down. Finally, there is Biosilk Silk Therapy, which is kinda pricey, but a great product; it gives your hair great shine without making it heavy. So, once again I am lovin these products! I give all of them two thumbs up!

Hello Kitty ???????????

Okay, when I first heard about the Hello Kitty line that comes out today, I was stoked.... Now I'm just like....whatever.... Of course, I am going to check it out, but I doubt that I will buy anything...

MAC 109 brush and Dream Matte Mousse




Just a quick note... I recently bought the 109 MAC brush.... Don't tell me how late I am. I already know...:o) anywho.... I love this brush. If you have not tried it with Dream Matte Mousse by Maybelline you do not know what you are missing..... I've tried Dream Matte Mousse before... but in combination with the 109. Pure excellence....
