John Frida Blonde highlight activating conditioner review

I have been dying my hair blonde now for more years than I can remember. I now do very chunky highlights of blonde mixed with my real color which is dark, but primarily I'm a blonde at this point. I usually don't use any products to enhance the blonde as I feel like that's why I pay my hairdresser to get me to the right blonde. Well I recently purchase John Frieda's frizz ease serum and it was on sale buy one get one half off so I decided to also purchase his blonde highlight activating conditioner as well. On the bottle it says see difference after one use. Hmmmm......that always makes me leery like I'm sold a line of crap. Well I used this and I was pleasantly surprised, I did think it made my blondes blonder, however maybe I'm imagining things. Well when I went to work a co worker immediately said, "your hair looks good, did you just get it done?" Well I will be darned, it really works and I wasn't imagining it. Not only did it make my blondes blonder but it also conditioned really well. I'm a fan and will continue to use this product for sure. Try it out and let me know if you like it too.

Frizz Ease Serum review

So I have the type of hair that needs a smoothing product of some sort. If my hair dries naturally it has a slight curl and it looks frizzy. I also dry my hair with round brushes to get it straight. I'm not sure how Ive over looked frizz ease serum as it has been out for awhile but I think when I saw it had won an allure award I decided to give it another try. Well Im a fan. You do not need much, a little goes a long way. As with most smoothing products you apply to damp hair and comb through, the rest is history. I really liked it and my hair is smooth and has a killer shine. Im going to keep using this for sure.

Burts Bees tinted lip balm petunia review

I am a self proclaimed lip balm addict and you will notice I have reviewed other lip balms as well. For some reason Burts Bees tinted lip balm has snuck under my radar, until today. What an amazing product! So here is the thing, generally if you are a lip balm person you don't use lip stick. As a matter of fact I hate everything about lip stick, it leaves a funny taste, it gets on your teeth, you might get it on your clothes.....yuck! However I would like to have a little color on my lips. Burts Bees goes on like a nice smooth lip balm and has a very subtle amount of color that is absolutely perfect. The petunia shade is a very light natural pink that I just love. I'm a huge fan of this and I look forward to testing out some other shades. Let me know what you think of Burts Bees.

Loreal youth code dark spot correcting serum

So I received a free sample of Loreal youth code dark spot correcting serum when I purchases their BB cream. My skin tends to hyperpigment and be susceptible to dark spots so I am always looking for the miracle serum. I have used prescription strength hydroquinone in the past and have never seen great results. I did not have much faith that this product would be any different but I must say I was pleasantly surprised. It is very light and silky with a great scent so I liked that much better than the thick hydroquinone I had been using. But really it is all about the results and I have to say that since I started using this product I have noticed some dark spots lightening. I'm quite happy with the product and will definitely continue to use it on a regular basis. Post a comment if you have tried this and click the link if you would like to purchase it from amazon.
