L’OREAL TRUE MATCH LUMI CUSHION FOUNDATION

2016-03-25T20:51:00.000-07:00

Hello Beauties!
I have some great drug store foundation to share with you today from L’Oreal!

What L’Oreal says:

Liquid Foundation revolutionized – build luminous coverage in a tap. Introducing new True Match™ Lumi Cushion, a liquid foundation infused in an innovative sponge that delivers the perfect amount of makeup. Our luminous refreshing formula creates sheer to medium coverage. Tap a little for a fresh natural glow, tap on more to build a new level of luminous coverage. Liquid foundation + tap on applicator puff gives you convenient on-the-go coverage.

For those who are new to cushion foundations, they are compacts that come with a cushion applicator and a porus sponge saturated in liquid foundation.

Price: $16.99

Purchase at: All drugstores, Target, Walmart, etc., and Lorealparisusa.com.

Available Shades: Comes in 12 true-to-skin shades.

Packaging: Pretty rose gold top with a white compact. Inside the compact there is a nice size mirror and applicator. Open the second tab in the compact, the sponge is revealed and when you press down, the foundation comes out. It's very easy to use.

Finish: Fresh, natural & luminous, but I found it to be more of a satin finish after setting it with powder.

Coverage: Sheer to medium, very build-able without ever looking cakey. That is such a plus in my book!

Skin Type: For all skin types. Safe for sensitive skin and does not clog pores.

Longevity: About 6 hours.

How to use:

STEP 1: Gently press applicator into foundation cushion.
STEP 2: Tap into skin to deliver the perfect dose of foundation.
STEP 3: Build to desired coverage level.

How to clean your applicator:
The anti-microbial applicator can be washed to keep it clean.
Wash with warm water and gentle soap.
Air dry completely before using.

How to make your cushion last longer:
Remove the cushion from the compact and flip over to the reverse side for more product.

Overall: The Lumi Cushion Foundation is great! It blends into the skin beautifully. It's very build-able but never looks cakey on the skin. It also looks great when you set it with powder. One of my favorite things about this compact is the design, it's perfect for on the go use! I'm really impressed with the True Match Lumi Cushion Foundation and think its worth try!

Have you tried cushion compact foundation yet?

Marc Jacobs Velvet Noir Mascara Review

2016-01-22T16:06:00.001-08:00

Hello Pretties!

I have a new mascara to tell you about! As a member of Influenster I was selected to receive the Marc Jacobs Velvet Noir Mascara to try out, and lets just say it's pretty fabulous!

What it is:
An ultra-volumizing mascara that delivers instant dimension for epic lashes.

What it does:
Experience ultimate volume and the look of thick, false lashes with Velvet Noir Major Volume Mascara. The lash-maximizing, curvy brush places the most volume at the hard-to-reach center lash line, and the defining tip styles lashes for major drama. The super-concentrated black pigment delivers the greatest visual impact, and the Flash Volume Complex™ creates instant, smudge-proof length and volume in three strokes or less. Velvet Noir gives you the thickest lashes in one sweep. Apply Velvet Noir Major Volume Mascara on its own, or layer with O!Mega Lash Volumizing Mascara (sold separately). Pair it with Feather Noir Ultra-Skinny Lash-Discovering Mascara and Lamé Noir Ultra-Glittering Mascara (sold separately) to style your lashes for every occasion.

What it is formulated WITHOUT:
- Parabens
- Sulfates
- Phthalates

What else you need to know:
Velvet Noir is inspired by Marc Jacobs’s first beauty memory of his mother carefully shaving fibers from a velvet ribbon to create her own couture faux lashes.

Research results:
In an instrument-measured study conducted by an independent lab on equally-sized adhesive lashes, the following results were reported:
- 1800% more volume in three strokes
- 300% more volume in one stroke

The Velvet Noir mascara is an almost perfect product in my opinion. I have really short, thin lashes. This mascara leaves my lashes full and long with just two coats, and it comes off easily with miscellar water, which is a plus. I love the shape of the curvy brush because it separates and defines every lash. Oh and can we talk about the packaging, It's simply beautiful! This is my new favorite mascara! Well done on another amazing product Marc Jacobs!

You can find the Marc Jacobs Velvet Noir Major Volume Mascara at Sephora, and Sephora.com. It retails for $26.00.

FARMACY NEW DAY GENTLE EXFOLIATING GRAINS

2015-12-14T10:40:00.001-08:00

Hello Pretties!
Today we are talking about exfoliating the dead skin cells off our skin by using the Farmacy New Day Gentle Exfoliating Grains. Exfoliating is a key component to my beauty regimen and is essential for all that want to have glowing smooth skin.

What it is:
A potent, all-inclusive skincare treatment with innovative grains that transform into a gentle, foaming exfoliating cream with the addition of water.

What it is formulated to do:
This gentle cleanser contains unique grains to cleanse, exfoliate, and clarify in one step for fresh, clear skin. Natural cranberry seeds provide a deep clean to lift away surface debris and promote skin clarity, while rice bran powder loosens dry skin cells and absorbs excess oils and surface impurities. A complex of white willow bark, carrot, green tea, and marshmallow soothe, protect, and calm the skin. The formula also contains Farmacy’s Echinacea GreenEnvy™, a unique, patent-protected variant of echinacea purpurea that contains the highest known concentration of cichoric acid, which helps protect the skin by supporting natural collagen.

What it is formulated WITHOUT:
- Parabens
- Sulfates
- Phthalates

What else you need to know:
This product is formulated with naturally derived ingredients. It is also free of formaldehyde and artificial coloring and is not tested on animals.

Suggested Usage:
-Pour a quarter-size amount of grains into palm and blend with a few drops of water.
-Mix until a smooth, foaming paste forms.
-Massage onto skin with gentle circular sweeping motions.
-Rinse with tepid water and pat dry.

The bottle is small and comes very beautifully packaged. I really like the wood cap on the bottle. It gives it an earthy feel, which I like!
This exfoliator left my skin feeling so nice without being irritating. It's truly an adjustable exfoliation as well. The more water you add to the paste, the more gentle the product will become. You can use it either morning or night. I like to use it at night and follow with a good serum and night moisturizer. There isn't much of a smell. When you wash it off you feel very clean but there is a softness that it leaves so you will not feel dried out. My skin looked brighter and softer after my first use.
I'm very pleased with the Farmacy New Day Gentle Exfoliating Grains and highly recommend you give it a try in you're looking for a gentle exfoliator!
You can visit the Farmacy Beauty website for more information. Retail Price: $30.00 (Available at FarmacyBeauty.com, Sephora.com, and QVC) * Disclaimer: This product was received complimentary from Farmacy and BrandBacker. All opinions are 100% my own.

CONCEALER WARDROBING

2015-11-12T21:01:00.000-08:00

Hello Pretties!

I recently discovered concealer wardrobing and how important it is in your beauty routine. By using different concealers/powders you can target the problem areas on your skin and make it look flawless.
I teamed up with Ulta Beauty to share with you tips on concealer wardrobing to create a flawless, natural look!

WHAT I USE:

NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Custard: This is creamy, moisturizing, very pigmented, and everything you could ever want in a concealer. It's one of my favorites for this technique.

Amazing Cosmetics Anti-Aging Face Primer: This primer goes on clear, and adds a soft sheen to your skin. It hydrates your skin and allows makeup to stay put all day long.

Amazing Cosmetics Amazing Concealer: This is great for any redness on the skin. It covers up just about everything. I like to use it to cover blemishes.

Amazing Cosmetics Perfection Stick: This has a lightweight formula and can be used to conceal any area of the face. It's a perfect formula for highlighting and contouring. Also, perfect for touch ups on the go.

Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder: This powder is lightweight, silky, and sheer leaving the skin with a flawless matt finish. This product is amazing to set your concealer with. I use the baking/cooking method which is where you pack on loose powder underneath the eye, and various parts of the face. I let it sit for about 10-20 minutes. This allows the product to sink into the skin for a smooth, pore-less, highlighted finish. This final step is so gorgeous!

I find that the concealer wardrobing steps are pretty simple and offer gorgeous results. I’m obsessed, and will use this technique whenever applying my makeup. The last step of “baking/cooking” brightens and mattifies the skin beautifully. Once it’s set, I like to use a big brush and dust the remaining product away, and voila, you're all done! Hope you like my end result and thanks so much for reading!

Have you tried concealer wardrobing? Would love to hear your thoughts!

Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Pur Couture Lipstick

2015-10-23T17:11:00.000-07:00

Hello Pretties!

I received the #YSLRougePurCouture Lipsticks in #09 Rose Stiletto and #19 Fuchsia from my wonderful friends at Influenster and I couldn't wait to try them out. These beauties are simply gorgeous! The packaging is luxurious as with all YSL products. I just love it!

A TIMELESS ACT OF EMPOWERMENT

Lipstick is the ultimate gesture of beauty. For YSL Beauty, this gesture began in 1978, with the birth of a defining era in lip color, championed by Yves Saint Laurent who wanted to dress women’s lips in couture colors. It was then that the ROUGE PUR COUTURE legacy began; a wardrobe of iconic lipsticks able to deliver the promise of pure color, draped elegantly onto the lips. The lipstick of heroines. A product so luxurious, so subversive, that it became the ultimate weapon for uncompromising seduction. Almost 40 years later, ROUGE PUR COUTURE remains the manifesto of an audacious, free-spirited femininity that breaks the rules to reinvent them.

In just one stroke, luxurious, rich color dresses the lips with intense hydration and antioxidant care. In a signature couture jewel-like packaging, Rouge Pur Couture delivers the promise of edgy style and ultimate feminine strength.

These gorgeous lipsticks have a light floral fragrance to them. They are creamy, long wearing, and moisturizing. They feel incredibly smooth, glide right onto the lips and have amazing pigmentation. Both colors are beautiful but my favorite is the Rose Stiletto and think it's a perfect color for the fall. The Fuchsia is perfect for those times when you would like a bolder lip. It's a lovely color as well. I am officially in love with these YSL lipsticks. Simply amazing YSL!

They retail for $36 each and you can find them at Sephora, Nordstrom, and of course the YSL site!

Did you receive the voxbox from Influenster? Which lipstick did you like? Would love to hear your thoughts! Thanks so very much for reading!

Dr. Brandt PoreDermabrasion Pore Perfecting Exfoliator

2015-10-21T00:24:00.000-07:00

Hello Pretties!
Today I am excited to review a high end skincare product from the brand Dr. Brandt. It's the PoreDermabrasion Pore Perfecting Exfoliator, Pores be Gone! And lets just say it works wonders for your skin.

About dr. brandt skincare: (from iFabbo and dr. brandt skincare)

dr. brandt skincare is the natural evolution of Dr. Brandt's professional dermatology practice and clinical research. In an industry rife with out-sized claims and overblown promises, dr. brandt skincare will become first in the minds of women who desire the most beautiful, youthful skin possible--not because they market better, but because they develop better products!

dr. brandt skincare's PoreDermabrasion Pore Perfecting Exfoliator:

dr. brandt PoreDermabrasion is a unique professional grade physical and chemical exfoliator and pore perfector in one. No matter how old you are or what type of skin you have, enlarged pores are a huge concern. Shrink them down to the vanishing point while smoothing and evening skin's texture.

Suggested Usage:
-Dampen skin with water and slowly and gently massage cream for one minute.
-Leave it on for one to two minutes to activate deep cleansing.
-Rinse well and pat dry.
-This product is best if used one to two times per week.

This is one powerful little exfoliator. The micro crystals work really well to give your skin a gentle but serious scrub that you can feel working without it being too rough on your skin.

After using this product my immediate reaction was wow! My pores defiantly looked better. It was more gentle than I expected and had a nice cool feeling on the skin. As soon as I rinsed and dried my face, my skin felt so soft and moisturized.

If you’re looking for a really great physical and chemical exfoliator, then I highly recommend you give dr. brandt PoreDermabrasion Pore Perfecting Exfoliator a try. It is a little pricey, but it does provide visible results and smoother skin.

Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat Blur Primer & Blur Perfector

2015-08-05T21:55:00.003-07:00

Hello Pretties!
I'm so excited to be able to share with you the Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat Blur Primer & Blur Perfector. These products aim to create a perfect complexion and I have to say they work as promised and are simply fabulous!

The packaging is simple and elegant and is an absolute eye-catcher. The pale pink and gold on the compact is so lovely and screams luxury. It's so pretty!

YSL Touche Éclat BLUR PRIMER – The first radiance boosting foundation primer that combines the light of Touche Éclat and the perfecting effect of blur. Formulated with 4 nourishing oils, skin is left incredibly soft without greasy residue. Immediately the look of skin is improved: pores look diminished, skin texture feels smoother, skin tone looks more even and luminous. Free of dulling opaque fillers, the transparent texture is available in one universal shade with subtle sparkles of golden light for maximum luminosity. Suitable for all skin tones, including sensitive. Non-Comedogenic.

The gold particles are so tiny which means they are not detectable on the skin. When you apply it to your skin it leaves a lovely smooth finish and it's beautifully illuminated.

YSLTouche Éclat BLUR PERFECTOR – A YSL first, blur in a compact that perfects skin while retaining its luminous glow. It transforms from a balm to a powder upon application to blur imperfections and create a transparent, ever so slight rosy-glow effect. Instantly pores look visibly minimized, skin feels smoother and complexion looks more uniform. Use 3 ways: 1. Alone as an all-over complexion perfector 2. To set makeup 3. As a mattyfying touch up during the day to sweep away any shininess and imperfections. Available in one universal shade, ideal for all skin tones and skin types. Non-Comedogenic.

I love the non-powdery formula. It's light weight and transforms from balm to powder upon application. It instantly absorbs and doesn't feel greasy at all. Don't be afraid of the rosy color in the packaging. It goes on translucent once applied to the skin. It really feels beautiful to the touch.

Bottom line is I love these products and will continue to use them. YSL, you’ve done it again!

Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat Blur Primer & Blur Perfector can be purchased at Sephora, Nordstrom, and yslbeautyus.com.

IRRESISTIBLE ME 8 IN 1 SAPPHIRE CURLING WAND REVIEW

2015-07-06T20:45:00.001-07:00

Hello Pretties!

The Irresistible Me Sapphire 8 in 1 Curling Wand is such a great product and it will make your hair look fabulous!

If you're looking for soft ringlets, beachy waves, and more then this is the curling wand for you! It has eight interchangeable barrels, that promise fast, smooth, and shiny curls using it's tourmaline technology.
I really like the black sleek case that stores all the curling tools. Everything fits perfectly in this carrying case which makes it easy to take with you anywhere. It's so convenient, you just put it in your bag and you're good to go.

I really like that the tips of each barrel stays cool, meaning if you happen to touch it you won’t burn yourself. I was also very pleased to see that Irresistible included a glove to protect your fingers from getting burnt.

Love all the different wands, there really is something for everyone. They would work well with pretty much any length of hair and give a range from big relaxed curls, to tight curls, which is awesome!

The wand heats up super fast and in about 25 seconds you can begin curling your hair. I would say you only need to hold your hair in place for 10 seconds to get a gorgeous curl.

Overall, I'm very impressed with this curling wand and it's honestly a great hair tool to have around. This is an all in one curling kit and I don't think I will need another curling wand for a while. Well done on this fabulous product Irresistible Me!

To purchase the Irresistible Me Sapphire 8 in 1 Curling Wand visit their site here!

The curling wand is currently on sale for $149.

Rodan + Fields Acute Care Redefine Review #EXPRESSYOURSELF

2015-03-18T23:07:00.000-07:00

Hello Beauties,

Recently I was given the opportunity by iFabbo to try the Rodan & Fields Redefine Acute Care Regimen. The Rodan + Fields REDEFINE combines clinically effective levels of active cosmetic and OTC ingredients to help defend against and reduce the visible signs of aging for noticeably firmer, smoother, flawless-looking skin.
This 4-product regimen was developed by Stanford-trained Dermatologists Dr, Katie Rodan and Dr. Kathy Fields.

The Redefine Acute Care & Redefine Regimen features the following products:

10 sachets of Acute Care (1 pair in each sachet)
Redefine Daily Cleansing Mask
Redefine Pore Minimizing Toner
Redefine Triple Defense Treatment SPF 30
Redefine Overnight Restorative Cream

The Acute Care products claim to smooth lines with proprietary Liquid Cone Technology that melts line-defying peptides and hyaluronic acid directly into the wrinkle after 10 applications. You stick them to wherever you’re trying to diminish the look of wrinkles. They are super easy to use. However, I do have a little complaint. When I applied them they felt like a bunch of little needles poking my face and it also left a sting to my skin. It was very uncomfortable.

The cleansing mask is to be used twice a day for about 2 minutes. I used this product both morning and night. The mask was nice and it left my skin feeling really clean after each use.

The toner is very mild and helps to remove any dirt on your face. It's easy to use and felt refreshing on the skin.

The day cream and night cream were also easy to use. Neither of them felt heavy or greasy, which I really liked.

I feel like my skin is a lot softer after using this skin care line. I only noticed a small difference in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. But with continued use I may get better results. Overall I would say this is a nice skin care line and I'm impressed with it at this point. Looking forward to seeing more results with continued use!

These products can be found on Rodan & Fields website here and it retails for $413 for all products mentioned.

It's always a great thing to #EXPRESSYOURSELF!

Have you used any of Rodan & Fields’ products? Which ones are your favorite?

Hourglass Monochrome Modernist Rose Eyeshadow Palette

2015-03-05T20:28:00.000-08:00

Hello Loves,

I'm a huge fan of Hourglass products and when I set my eyes on this beautiful eyeshadow palette it was love at first site! Love how these shadows are delicately draped together. Just gorgeous!

Details from the site:

An artist-inspired eyeshadow palette with seamless color transitions offering effortless blending in a single pan. The innovative multi-press, three-dimensional design, combined with fine, creamy consistency, introduces a new level of control for blending and picking up pigment.

Complementary colors for base, crease, and eyeliner allow for endless customized looks with one palette.

Artist-inspired palettes featured a range of finishes, from matte to metallic, for countless combinations, from subtle to dramatic.

Unique sculptural design provides superior control for picking up and blending pigment. Each shade and finish is specifically calibrated to work with the other formulas within the palette.

The finely-milled, creamy formula-the first of its kind-is exceptionally soft, longwearing and crease-resistant.

Shimmer shades may be applied wet for more dramatic color.

This palette is so amazing. The formula is very silky, buttery and long lasting. Not too powdery like I've heard in other reviews. I love the texture and the color payoff is great.

Overall, I think the palette is absolutely stunning - both in aesthetics and performance. This palette has impressed me so much. Hourglass cannot do anything wrong in my mind, their formulations are truly one of a kind. I'm excited to purchase more of these lovely palettes. They blend like a dream and are worth every penny!

Modernist Eyeshadow Palette is $58 and Available in 7 curated color palettes.

You can find this pretty palette at Sephora, and the Hourglass cosmetics website.

Have you tried either of these palettes? What are your thoughts? Leave me a comment below!

Hey Loves, I have a new obsession and it's the Diorskin Nude Shimmer Illuminating Powder in "Rose 001". It's so beautiful and the packaging is just gorgeous! However, I wouldn't expect anything less from Dior.

From the Dior website~ The nude skin effect glowing with a halo of freshness and light. Subtle combination of mother-of-pearl and glowing color, Diorskin Nude Shimmer can be used as a light veil on the rounded areas of the face to catch the maximum amount of light and create a naturally dazzling glow.
What's nice about this product is that it can be used as a highlighter, blush or bronzer. It glows on the cheeks without looking glittery. I personally use it as a blush and lets just say it looks stunning!

Monat Rejuveniqe Oil Intensive

2014-11-11T16:20:00.000-08:00

Hello Beauties!

I'm always looking for new hair oils to try out and I must share that this one is so luxurious! It's the Monat Rejuveniqe Oil Intensive which can be used on your hair and body! It's simply fabulous!

A little background from the company:

Benefits~ Nourish and energize the scalp with an invigorating blend of 11+ unique molecular ingredients –including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, beta-carotene and omega-3 fatty acids – that mimic the body’s natural oils! The proprietary formula reduces hair thinning, prevents oxidative stress and adds incredible volume, repairing the hair with instantly visible, long-lasting shine without the damaging effects of silicone.
Abyssinian: The Key ingredient in Rejuveniqe Oil Intensive. From the crambe abyssinica plant native to central Africa, it’s a rare and unique combination of fatty acids prized for their ability to do everything from mimic the effects of silicon for unbeatable shine; lubricate the hair deep into the follicle; and protect and coat each strand.

Baobab: The renowned baobab trees have grown for centuries in the arid climates of India and Africa, and its exotic oil from the tree’s seeds are rich in antioxidant-rich palmitic acid and Vitamin F.

Buriti: The fruit of Africa’s Moriche palm – known as the Tree of Life – is one of the world’s richest sources of beta-carotene, which moisturizes and nourishes.

Camelia: Also known as tea-seed oil, it’s ultra-hydrating oil responsibly harvested from China that cleans the scalp and pampered dry stands thanks to its abundance of Vitamin E and polyphenols.

Carrot Seed: Specially sourced from the mountains of Switzerland, it’s rich in Vitamin A to condition the scalp, plus Alpha Linolenic Acid for anti-inflammatory protection.

Monoi: Selectively sourced from the warm tropics of Tahiti, it’s a restorative oil rich in Omega 3 and fatty acids to heal damage and promote growth from the root.

Meadowfoam: This oil is sourced right from the Pacific Northwest of the USA. Named for its flowers’ resemblance to white foam on the ocean, meadowfoam oil is another outstanding source of Omega 9 fatty acids for shine and sheen.

Moringa: Ancient Egyptians prized Moringa Oil for its nourishing properties, thanks to antioxidants and Vitamin E, which help combat skin fatigue, plus clean and purify the scalp.

This oil is so pure, that it can be used on the skin as well. I tried a very small amount to my face and even used it on my cuticles one night. This oil is no joke and has really changed my life! It has done wonders for my hair and has helped with dry areas on my skin. The scent is lovely. It smells like fresh oranges and it makes me feel like I'm getting a spa experience at home!
I know this product is a little on the pricey side, but the benefits are worth it!

If you would like to learn more about this product, visit their website HERE for more information and how to make a purchase.

What do you like to use on your hair? I'm hooked on products that smooth my hair out and leave it feeling silky soft!

DERMALOGICA DAILY MICROFOLIANT REVIEW

2014-10-23T00:15:00.000-07:00

Hello Beauties!
The Daily Microfoliant is a Rice-based powder that very gently exfoliates the skin’s surface to get rid of what Dermalogica calls ‘dulling debris’. This product works absolute wonders on my skin. My skin is always smooth and fresh looking after it’s had a good scrub with this fabulous exfoliant!

Dermalogica says:

Gentle, daily use exfoliating powder for all skin conditions. Unique Rice-based powder formula activates upon contact with water, releasing Papain, Salicylic Acid and Rice Enzymes that micro-exfoliate dead cells, instantly leaving skin smoother and brighter. Our unique Skin Brightening Complex helps to balance uneven skin pigmentation while a super-soothing blend of Green Tea, Ginkgo and Colloidal Oatmeal helps to calm the skin, leaving it extraordinarily clear and refreshed. Gentle enough to use on a daily basis. Not recommended for users of medically-prescribed exfoliation products. Formulated without artificial fragrances and colors.

Benefits:

Removes dulling surface debris and evens skin tone.
Reveals brighter, smoother skin.
Gentle enough for daily use.

How to use:

Dispense about a half-teaspoon of Daily Microfoliant® into very wet hands and create a creamy paste by rubbing hands together. Apply to face in circular motions, avoiding the eye area. Massage gently for one minute, then rinse thoroughly. Follow with Multi-Active Toner or UltraCalming Mist and prescribed Dermalogica Moisturizer.

The Daily Microfoliant costs $52.00 for 2.6oz and you can purchase it by clicking here!

I would have to say this is the gentlest of exfoliants that really polishes and brightens, leaving you with smooth and glowing skin. I love this product so much and it does what it promises! If you have been searching for a new exfoliant look no further. This is a fantastic one and you will not be disappointed! * Disclaimer:

Aveda Smooth Infusion Naturally Straight Review #AvedaNaturallyStraight

2014-09-24T13:28:00.000-07:00

Hello Beauties!

I was born with thick, wavy hair and do not have the luxury of being able to just wash my hair and let it air dry. It would be a frizzy mess if I did, YUK! I always have to blow dry it straight and then either curl it with a curling iron or use a flat iron to straighten it. Let's just say all of these steps take up so much time when I'm getting ready to go out. Such a pain!

Recently, SheSpeaks gave me the opportunity to try Aveda Smooth Infusion Naturally Straight, #AvedaNaturallyStraight. It's a styling creme that over time loosens curls every time you use it. As you straighten your hair, Aveda Smooth Infusion Naturally Straight’s naturally derived plant fibers invisibly attach to hair to loosen curl and help lock in straightness. The formula’s humidity barrier of organic cassava extract and maize defends against frizz. The more you use it, the easier it is to create straight, smooth styles, so you can spend less time with a blow dryer and flat iron every day. It is safe for relaxed and color treated hair. After five consecutive applications of Naturally Straight hair will stay straight for up to three washes.

About Aveda Naturally Straight
Go from naturally curly to naturally straight. Aveda Smooth Infusion™ Naturally Straight is a lightweight styling creme that progressively loosens curls every time you style.

How to Use the Aveda Smooth Infusion™ Products:
Step 1: Wash hair with Aveda Smooth Infusion™ Shampoo and follow with Aveda Smooth Infusion™ Conditioner. Towel dry hair and comb through.
Step 2: Apply Aveda Smooth Infusion™ Style-Prep Smoother to damp hair, by working it through from the mid-shaft through the ends of hair.
Step 3: Apply Aveda Smooth Infusion™ Naturally Straight. Depending on hair length and thickness, start by using approximately a small coin sized drop of Smooth Infusion™ Naturally Straight styling creme on towel-dried, still-damp hair, applying it one section at a time.
Step 4: Blow-dry hair straight using the brush of your choice. Flat iron if desired.

I've been using these products for a couple of weeks now and they have worked pretty well. I use the shampoo and conditioner along with the Smooth Infusion Naturally Straight hair cream. I did notice improvement after using the Smooth Naturally Straight hair cream. It kept my hair straight in between washes. It made straightening my hair with the flat iron much easier, it took less time and it controlled the frizz in my hair. It's so easy to use and it smells really nice! I will continue to use these products and hopefully over time it will get better and better at smoothing my hair and reducing the time it takes to flat iron it!

Where to buy: Retails for $26.00/5 oz., 150 ml Available at Aveda stores and salons and online at aveda.com. To find a location near you, visit aveda.com.

KEURIG 2.0 K550 BREWING SYSTEM REVIEW #HELLOKEURIG

2014-09-18T20:03:00.002-07:00

Hello my friends!
#HelloKeurig! Recently, I was given the opportunity to review the Keurig 2.0 K550 brewing system through Influenster and I couldn’t have been more excited! I love Keurig and I'm so impressed with this new model!

Say Hello to the Keurig® 2.0 K550 Brewing System — the first Keurig system that features revolutionary Keurig 2.0 Brewing Technology™ which is designed to read the lid of each K-Cup™or K-Carafe™ pack to brew the perfect beverage every time. The K550 brewer allows you to brew a 4-cup carafe with the same ease and convenience of brewing a single-serve cup — all at the touch of a button. It’s so smart, and so simple!

The brewer has other great features including an extra large 80 ounce water reservoir, 2.8 inch color touch display, programmable clock, an auto brew option and a strength control setting for brewing bolder coffee. There’s even a separate setting for hot cocoa and other specialty beverages like lattes and mochas. The K550 model also has a customizable night light in the water reservoir and offers hot water on demand. So many options to choose from — not at all like a typical coffee maker.

Choose from over 250 varieties of coffee, tea and specialty beverages — including iced beverages — from 40 brands you know and love. Just look for Keurig Brewed® seal on your favorite K-Cup pack and K-Carafe pack varieties.

The Keurig 2.0 K550 Brewing System includes a Keurig™ Carafe, a 2.0 Water Filter Starter Kit with one filter, and K-Cup® and K-Carafe™ packs to get you started.

Variety pack includes:

4 K-Carafe™ packs:

I love the new Keurig 2.0 K550 system! The new digital screen is so much fun. I love that you have 12 different colors to choose from as your wallpaper. Another fun feature is you can change the color of the water reservoir.

You can also set a timer to brew your coffee automatically and use a nightlight. You can adjust the brightness on the touchscreen as well. I wish there were a few more custom features for someone like myself who enjoys using their own blends of coffee and adjusting the temperature. I like my coffee extra hot. With that being said this is still a great machine. It's now available in stores. If you decide to purchase the Keurig 2.0 K550, you will absolutely love it!

Huge thank you to Keurig and Influenster for this amazing opportunity!
