December Beauty Product Reviews!


sally hansen hard as wraps + essie polish + insta dri // my new hack to getting tough, shellac-like nails that don't chip for a few days! seriously, it works great and with two coats of any color/brand polish. i never used to pick a base coat, but it makes all the difference in the world. 
sally knows her nail polish, gals.
revlon super lustrous lip gloss in raisin rage & fatal apple // i wanted some gloss to go over some of my favorite lips shades for the holidays for ultimate shine and lasting power.  i had perfect lasting & shiny color through multiple adult beverages! they are not very bright on their own, but paired with my bright/dark red lipsticks, it was a perfect look.
murad clarifying cleanser & clarifying toner // for the harsh winter time, i wanted to make sure i had a skin care regimen that could combat the combination skin without over-drying.  i use the murad cleanser daily with my clarisonic, followed by the toner and I have definitely noticed a difference in clarity & even skin tone. 
it's a 10 leave-in treatment // i heard raves and raves on this product online, and I finally bought a small size to try it out.  i have since re-purchased because i love the way it makes my ends silky and smooth! it also smells like something from my childhood that i can't quite pinpoint, but i love the scent. (seriously, if you know the answer, you have to tell me.)
 i also bought the shampoo/conditioner from the line, but i haven't tried it out yet. 
 these are my favorite beauty product purchases from december! i cannot believe that we are a matter of days away from 2014.  any products out there that i need to try & review? 
is there a cure for post-christmas funk? time to detox!

Product Love: Big Sexy Hair Texturizing Hairspray




Big Sexy Hair FLIP IT OVER is my new best friend.  For those of you who do not know, I have naturally curly hair that I blow dry straight, followed by a flat iron or a barrel for waves.  On my wavy days, I have been searching for a miracle and at Ulta... I found it.

After I did a light wave today, I flipped my head over and sprayed and scrunched and by 4 PM, I still look fresh... even after battling pre-schoolers all day.

WINNER WINNER!

(P.S. I did a lot of soul searching with the wonderful employees of my local Ulta, and we decided on this one.  Had I not been completely satisfied, they have a 60 day return policy.  MONEY BACK- if there is still 50% left in the bottle!  You can't go wrong! Run out and try products to your heart's contents, my little chickens.  Report back.)
