I hardly ever talk about my skin care routine, however today I must share a must have! It is called Biore Deep Pore Charcoal Cleanser, and it is the best face wash ever!! I have always had awful skin, and since moving to the mountains it has become even more of a disaster. It is oily, yet super dry. On top of that, for years I have had blackheads I’ve never been able to get rid of. Enter: Biore Deep Pore Charcoal Cleanser. I don’t exactly understand how it works, but basically the charcoal pulls out all the impurities in your skin. I have been using this since the summer, and my skin keeps getting better and better! It has gotten rid of most of my blackheads, and is still gentle enough that I can use it in the morning AND at night! I use this cleanser with my Clarisonic brush, and the results I have gotten are shocking. I never thought my skin could change so dramatically. Now granted, I still have a long way to go, but this facial cleanser gives me hope that I will one day get to the skin I have always dreamed of having.

To purchase – check out your local drugstore, grocery store or Target. It is sold wherever most facial cleansers are sold.

Must Have: The Tangle Teaser

I have discovered a hair product that is a must have. It is called the Tangle Teaser, and it is a life saver.photo1-11

I have very tangly hair. When I get out of the shower, no matter how much conditioner or leave in conditioners/oils I put in my curly hair, it is so tangled. It takes me at least 10 minutes to brush through my hair. It’s obnoxious. I try to go slow so that I won’t pull all my hair out, but it is still a project. Enter….the Tangle Teaser. I had heard of this product, but like most things, if I have to buy it online, I usually don’t end up doing it. For some reason, I don’t enjoy online shopping that much. However, when I saw this product at Sephora, I knew I had to give it a try. It was FABULOUS!!! I used it in place of a brush once I got out of the shower. The Tangle Teaser made brushing through my tangles much easier. I think it took half the time to get through the tangles. I am obsessed! Anyone who has curly, tangled hair needs this in their life!!

To purchase, check out their website. Or find it at Sephora!

I love this product!!

Mani Monday!

/ Powder Babes / 3 Comments

So obviously it is not Monday…but since I have been off for 2 months, I have so many exciting nail polish colors to show you! So today is an honorary “Mani Monday”. One of my fave finds from this summer was this gorgeous pink color by Essie. It is the perfect ‘ballet slippers’ kind of pink. I put it on, an immediately fell in love. The color is called “Muchi, Muchi”.

Beauty Must Haves

These two products save my hair on a daily basis. After dying and highlighting my hair for most of my life, my hair was pretty fried. I decided I needed to take charge. I switched up my shampoos and conditioners, and went on a quest to find the best things to make my hair healthy. Well, here are two products that have done just that for me. The first is Renewing Argan Oil of Morocco from Organix. This is oil that you put on your ends/the lower half of your hair when it is damp. I brush it thru with my fingers, then brush my hair once to incorporate it fully. When your hair dries, it feels soooo soft and silky, it’s unreal. The second product I love is Moroccan Oil – PROTECT (Heat styling protection). This is a spray that you apply before straightening or curling your hair. It protects your hair against the heat. I have recently been into beach waving my hair, so this has come in handy. You never want to curl or straighten your hair without some sort of protection. The heat can really fry your hair. I hate when my hair breaks off because I haven’t taken care of it. These two products have really improved my hair’s quality. I can feel and see a major difference.

*Note: The Moroccan Oil is pretty hardcore, so hold the spray at a good distance from your head and only mist your hair lightly. If you get too much on, it makes your hair a little greasy! And no one likes that!
