MAC's New Mineralized Eyeshadows

Mac just came out with some beautiful mineral eyeshadows that are a mixture of colors in a swirl.  These are some of the colors I would love to try.

My New E.L.F. Favorites

I had to try these items today.  So many ladies have spoken about them .  The prices are excellent and can fit into any budget.
* The Praline Matte Lip Color is my favorite soft nude color so far. It's very moisturizing and taste like candy.  It last a long time.  I will be buying it again.
* The E.L.F. Tinted Moisturizer is perfect for me. I don't care for heavy coverage, but I do like some kind of coverage. The first time I tried it, I was hooked.  My color is Almond.
* The E.L.F Mineral Infused Face Primer shocked me.  It's suppose to fill in fine lines and pores.  Guess what, it does. My face actually looked flawless for once after using it.
I was very pleased with all my purchases, and it felt good not to spend a fortune on good quality products.

Tresemme Split Rememdy Shampoo and Conditioner Review

Tresemme Split Remedy is a very good shampoo and conditioner.  The conditioner gives great slip and the shampoo gets the hair very clean without drying out the hair. This is what's said about these products:


TRESemme Split Remedy™ Leave-in Split End Conditioning Treatment restores moisture to hair and reduces split ends up to 80% after just three uses. This unique formula, with our innovative Reconstructing Complex™, actually binds split ends and keeps working to fix damage and bind splits as they occur. Our lightweight formula also protects hair from the damaging effects of styling including breakage, frizz and dryness. You'll notice hair looks smoother, shinier and salon fresh.


TRESemme Split Remedy™ Shampoo gently cleanses and strengthens to keep hair healthy and manageable and reduces split ends up to 80% after just three uses. This unique formula, with our innovative Reconstructing Complex™, actually binds split ends and keeps working to fix damage and bind splits as they occur. Hair is left looking salon fresh - softer, smoother and easier to style.


This is my kind of shampoo and conditioner.  I tried it and got great results. I will be adding this to my hair regimen.

Fantastic Results After Using Shima Products

I put my hair in a banana clip after using Shima shampoo (which I love), then using the leave in (leaves the hair feeling so nice), then I applied the oil (another favorite for sure). I got these amazing results.

Crea Clip

If your like me, (can't cut hair into styles very well), then you'll like the Crea Clip.  It's suppose to make doing  different hair cuts very easy. Right now it's on sale for $29.99 creaclip.com.

Update on my Thicker Hair Journey

I hope to have my hair even  by the end of the year.  I'm doing different things to get to that point such as:

* Now I'm roller setting my edges to get it straight instead of using heat.   I noticed before I was using to much heat on my edges just to get it to match the rest of my hair because it was growing, and that was thinning it out.
* I make sure my hair is moisturized and sealed every day. Never skipping a day.
* I do three loose ponytails every evening on satin rollers or soft rollers after the moisturizing and sealing.
* I wear my hair in either a chignon or ponytail (mainly a chignon) so my ends stay protected most days.
* I just did a 1 1/2  inch cut because I texlax my new growth every six months for 8 minutes (will be changing to five minutes).  I don't like the thick at the top, thinner at the bottom look, I will continue to work on that.
*I shampoo, condition and roller set once a week
*I cowash in the middle of the week (I found I can't skip the cowash part due to dry hair by the third or fourth day)

This regimen is helping so much I'm starting to see a difference.  I'll take another picture in August to see where I'm at then.  Still mid back length right now.  Was waist length.  I'll get there again.

Shima Products

Shima products have been a part of my hair regimen for  a while now, but since she came out with the shampoo and leave in conditioner, it's been even better.
Last night I used her shampoo, leave in conditioner and oil treatment, then I roller set my hair. Wow! Loving the results.  The great thing about her products is they never let me down.  Great results every time.
