Hair Beauty Boost With OGX Bamboo Fiber-Full Shampoo Collection

If your sad, tired hair needs a SPRING boost, then consider the OGX brand.

I might be one of few who had NEVER tried their popular shampoos + hair care treatments, but for the heck of it, liked the sound of BAMBOO for my stubborn hair from Hades and bought the Bamboo Fiber-Full Shampoo and the Thickening Root Booster.

One word, ladies.......AWESOME! And just $8 at ULTA!

Now, OGX poos are known for being pure and NOT adding bad chemical stuff like other shampoos.

The vast majority of OGX products contain non sulfated surfactants. Beginning in 2014, Vogue created a handful of shampoos – Coconut Water, Vitamin E, Vitamin B5, Eucalyptus Mint, Tsubaki Blossom, Heavenly Hydration Cherry Blossom, Bamboo Fiber Full, and O2 – that contain one sulfate, Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate (ALS).

Unfortunately, there is one in Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate. However, the Bamboo line is nourishing and volumizing to my hair, so I will continue to use it.

It smells darn good and produces a decent lather. I might ADD the Bamboo conditioner to my hair care line-up.
.
I have a lot of hair that is fine to medium, and it's not always easy to control.

I call my tresses-----SHAPELESS VOLUME.

Bu the OGX Bamboo Fiber-Full line is worth trying if you demand body and nourishment.

Does it FADE color-treated hair. Well, I will learn that soon enough. So far,  no problem.

Has anyone else tried OGX's Bamboo line?

Cindy Crawford Tells People Mag About Her Lush Hair Mask

Model Cindy Crawford needs no introduction, and at age 51, still promoting healthy, sensible beauty.

Cindy has always had incredible, wavy brunette locks, but even as she gets older, it's not quite the hair she used to have.

“Whose hair is this?” That’s the question Cindy Crawford found herself wondering when she looked in the mirror as she got older. 

“No one warns you that your hair changes so much,” the supermodel, 51, tells PeopleStyle during an interview featured in the new issue of PEOPLE, on newsstands Friday. “I knew I was going to have start coloring it, but I didn’t realize the texture was going to change. That was one of the biggest surprises about aging.”

To fight back against the normal signs of aging, the iconic model tells People that she applys this hair helper, an amazing hair mask:

“I put it on when I am working out and it smells really good and then after I work out I wash my hair,” she says.

Great tip, Cindy!

MyChelle Dermaceuticals Rushes In Early Spring With Super New 25% Perfect "C" Serum!

You've heard us RAVE about MyChelle Dermaceuticals several times before.

When it comes to clean, pure skin care products with beauty science + real results, this brand is a winner!

We recently received a nice box of new MyChelle products to try out. Thank you, Suzette. Their public image is a respectable one. We trust them, and you CAN, too.

We're going to look at their NEW Perfect C PRO Serum with a whopping 25% L-Ascorbic Acid, Vitamin C first.

This C-stuff rocks!

I have worn it both in the morning to start my day and also at night BEFORE going to sleep.

Perfect C PRO Serum is light + watery and absorbs FAST. It smells citrus-lovely.

I think it brightens, firms and tightens up fine lines. It allows your makeup to enjoy a protective primer-like base.

I admit to being a Retin-A addict, but I am also smart enough to know that your complexion also NEEDS vitamin C in the skin care line-up for COLLAGEN production and maintenance.

Check out MyChelle Dermaceuticals at their website here. You can also purchase the skin care line at ULTA and other fine beauty stores.

Battle of The Dove Deodorant Solids......Advanced Care VS Original

Well, when it comes to underarm protection, we all hope for dry, sweet-smelling arm pits.

We happen to think that the Dove brand does an excellent job of STOPPING the sweating, as an effective anti-perspirant/deodorant.

We have NOT encountered underarm wetness for several years now, using the ORIGINAL Invisible Solid in Powder.

And it's super cheap, at LESS than $3 at Walmart.

So, I decided to UP my no sweating underarm game with Dove's NEW Advanced Care 48-Hour Anti-Perspirant/Deodorant for LESS than $5 at Walmart.

Best of all, this scent comes in Caring Coconut.

Oh, yeah,.....My glorious underarms smelled just like a Pina Colada. No kidding!

Guess what?!

The coconut-fangled Dove did NOT keep my underarms dry.

Say what?  How could that be? 48-hour protection VS 24-hour protection?

No more Pina Colada deodorant for me....Back to basic Dove Original Invisible Solid in Powder.

Boring, but I swear you WON'T sweat wearing this one.

This striking patchwork piece is from Revolve, Tularosa,  on SALE - $209. The Averly Faux Fur Coat.

Are The Perfect Brows Via Trendy Microblading For You?

We all desire full, thick, gorgeous eye-framing brows. Some of us were born with brows with plenty of hairs to spare.

But for many women,  we've either plucked them away, or never really had full brows.

Thick eyebrows are more youthful-looking, help balance the features and look natural.

To achieve fab brows, most of us pencil them in, apply gel fiber serums on them, and so on.

There is ANOTHER way to BUILD the ideal pair of brows.......It's the hottest new beauty trend:

MICROBLADING......

We would LOVE to have this procedure performed on our brows but believe that to obtain incredible results, you need to find an incredible artist who can create the perfect pair for your individual facial features.

Make sure your brow tech is a LICENSED tattoo artist, because ink will be deposited in the brow area to paint in natural-looking hairs.

When done properly, microblading can result in star power eyebrows.

Check out a BEFORE + AFTER microblading  patient. Her BEFORE brows are awesome without the technique...Wish we had those. Still, the AFTER is gorgeous.

Microblading is a non-invasive beauty treatment that can fill in thin brows, hide hair gaps, create a better arch, re-define the brows, etc.

Your expert will apply a numbing cream to keep you comfortable and as pain-free as possible. BUT----some women say it does HURT a bit. Like a 4 out of a 10 pain rating.

Microblading involves the skill and artistry of drawing hair-like strokes with a special tool. The technique mimics real brow hairs + how they lie on the face.

Microblading features pigment implanted under your skin with a manual handheld tool.

The results last about one year and the procedure can average about $1,000.
