I've been using some products that I've been loving recently that I want to share with you.
So fresh, so clean. This face wash does a great job cleansing my skin while not drying it out. I've mentioned it before, but I'm still loving it so I figured it can't hurt to mention it again! I use it morning and night followed by a moisturizer and I have been happy with it so far. I bought a travel sized one from Sephora to test it out and have since gone back for the full-sized version. I travel a bunch so I saved the first container and I just refill and pack it in my makeup bag when I've got some traveling to do.
This is a bit pricey but in my opinion well worth the splurge. It's a teeny bottle (1.2 oz) with major payoff. It's designed to be used on a cleansed face to bring forth impurities, shrink pores, brighten, provide anti-aging, generate collagen, and controls bacteria.
A little goes a long way. Apply a thin layer to cleansed skin and wait 5-20 minutes before washing off. (I wait 20 minutes to allow the product time to work, but also because after shelling out $70 for 1oz of product you better believe I'm leaving it on for the full recommended time before watching it slink down the drain!). My skin looked brighter, clearer and was as soft and moisturized as a baby's bottom. Even a day or two after using it my skin still felt baby soft.
I slather this on each night after I cleanse my skin. It's a thicker cream and soaks right in so you don't hit the pillow all greasy and oily. I also use this after the mud mask I mentioned above, just to seal in all the moisture.
It can be a tad pricey so buy it at Costco. You get two for around the same price as one!

I am really picky about hairspray. I have thick hair but it is made up of fine strands that tend to be slippery and terrible at holding a curl or a style. I need to really 'dirty up' my hair in order for any style to last.
I'll be honest, because it takes so much work for me to get my hair texturized enough to do things others do with ease, I don't really 'do' my hair that often. I envy girls who have natural bounce, lift and who can throw it in a volumized bun without it slipping out immediately.
That being said, when I do out in the time and effort to style my hair, that bad boy better stay put! This Frizz Ease Hairspray is just the ticket. Smells good, doesn't get flaky, and seriously holds hair in place without being sticky or crunchy.
With the seemingly rainy spring ahead, this will keep your hair in place and frizz-free.
This stuff is AH-MAZING. It smells divine and just a little bit gives your hair a ton of texture, which justifies the price. I like to use this type of product in the warmer months because you can wash, spray, zhoosh, and go.
I got it in one of my Glossybox arrivals and tried it in a date night with my husband to texturize my hair before curling it. Combined with my Frizz Ease Hairspray, my curls lasted all night!
6. {Catwalk Root Booster}
Yet another way I try to add style to my thin limp locks, this root booster is great for volume. The spray nozzle is not my favorite, however. It has a little plastic nozzle that points out of the pump delivering the product in more of a stream than a spray. I find after I use it it has not only spritzed my hair, but also my bathroom countertops. But if you need a boost you need a boost, no? Just be ready to wipe down afterward.
I just got my hair colored recently and I'm in love with the way it turned out. I went for honey bronde (google it- it's a mix of blonde and brown) with a hint of ombré. I want this gorgeous color to last so I use this color protectant spray from Pureology. It smells intoxicating and I look forward to spraying it on my hair before using hot styling tools.
Not to be confused with Japanese Cherry Blossom, this is a much lighter, cleaner scent. I am so sad though because the girl at the store told me it's being discontinued, so I need to go online and stock up!! Great, light scent for spring that leaves you smelling clean and refreshed.
Take a few minutes, think about how to pamper yourself for spring, and dive in!
~And that, my friends, is worth a glass of champagne.~
