F.O.T.D. Million Dollar Mermaid

Happy new Year Beauties!!! Hope you all had an awesome year!!

This is the F.O.T.D. An eyeshadow eye dust by Napoleon Purdis. I bought this at Ulta marked down from $35 to $17.50. It also came with a gold glitter and a synthetic brush. Love a good deal. Considering the pigment or "eyeshadow dust" is about $29 or somewhere in that price range.

Russell Organics Review

Hi dolls,
So about a week ago I received Argon oil from Russell Organics to review. I was extremely excited to try this because its 100% pure and organic. It has no filters, masking, or additives. It's toxin free, cruelty free, can be used on skin hair and nails. It's very cost effective for $28. Click here and read more about it. In the mean time ill tell you my experience after one week if use.

 

My daughter Brooklyn has Eczema and I love this for her skin.  Though it doesn't cure Eczema, it does keep her skin smooth and non itchy.  I also use this on the heels of my feet.  From wearing flip-flops in the summer, my feet where very cracked and dry.  I would put a regular moisturizer on them after my shower before bed with socks, but that wasn't enough.  When I applied only the argon oil with sock on .....my feet were very smooth and non cracked.  I love it. 

I also applied this to Brooklyn's hair after I co-washed it and breaded it to air dry..

 

Love how shinny and silky it came out...From there I just used the flat iron and its left it smooth and shinny.  In the middle of the week I applied a couple of drops on the ends of her hair. 

 

Though I'm a makeup artist.  I'm a big skin care fanatic.  I'm very much so into organic products and look forward to other all natural and organics products for hair skin and nails. 

 

If you have tried this product or any argon oil.  I would love to know your thoughts. 

Don't forget to check out Russel organics website for video and more. 

New hair style

Hi beauties. So I've been trying different styles for my hair and trying different products and wanted to share it with you guys.
I've been using the Cantu natural hair line. So far in loving the product.
First I co washed my hair using the AG conditioner. I then put some organic cocoanut oil in it for added moisture. Then I did a double strand twist all over using the Cantu moisturizing curl activator cream. When u took it down to separate the curls I used the Cantu creamy hair lotion.

I love how it turned out. It wasn't frizzy and my curls are refined and shiny. I'm very pleased!!
Below are pictures of the process. Hope you enjoy.
