Curly Girl Journey

Good Morning! So I just finished my first bottles of Pureology Curl Complete Shampoo and Conditioner. I MUST say that I doubted these products in the beginning. I just didn't think that they'd be comparable or... better than curlyhair specific product lines. Clearly you can't judge a book on it's cover and I was proved wrong immediately. I loved this set! First, I just want to say that this duo lasted me a good two+ months. The price point is higher than average, but it is totally worth it. For a curly girl like me I usually HATE shampoo, but I really liked this one. It didn't make my hair feel dry/brittle after using it and it helped remove product buildup and oils off my scalp. I still have a good amount of shampoo left since I barely need any and it's concentrated so a little goes a long way.  I also loved the conditioner! It hydrates really well and again a little goes a long way. It provides great slip to be able to detangle and makes my hair really so...

Good Morning! About a month ago I finally decided to purchase DevaCurl products to try. So I spent about $40 on this set which includes an 8oz bottle of No-Poo, 8oz Bottle of One Condition, 8oz of Ultra Defining Gel, 3oz of Spray Gel, and 3 oz of Styling Cream. It was a pretty good deal so I can get an idea of their products.  I have 3B curls, if you are unsure of what kind of curls you have you could go take this test on  Naturally Curly .  1. DevaCurl No-Poo  I give this product a four out of five stars. It is a no lather shampoo and I am fine with the no lather as long as my scalp feels clean afterwards, which it did. I do like the smell of this product as it has a fresh and clean scent. The reason I don't give this a five out of five stars is because I don't feel that I can only use this shampoo. It is good for a freshen up in between washes, but I do feel that I get product build up faster since I use creamy products. So I need to keep a deeper clea...

Good Evening Everyone,     I kept hearing rave reviews on these two Maybelline products, The Nudes and Master Conceal, so I decided to try them out. The Nudes pallet I paid I believe around $11 for it and for the most part the shadows are pretty pigmented. The light colors seemed to not highlight as much as I would have liked them to, but I also feel that since I have very fair skin that I understand why they didn't work out well. On the other hand, the darker colors (75% of the pallet), were pigmented and build able. It worked perfect for an everyday go to pallet for some neutral shades just to make the lids pop a little and then if I wanted to create a smokey eye in the evening it worked well too! I feel that this product is worth the $11, especially for someone who wants to start applying eyeshadow, recreate smokey eye looks, and/or for key neutral shades.    The Master Conceal in the shade 20-Light worked really well. I felt that it covered my dark ci...

Here are the Winners of the Stylist Choice Awards: Stylist Choice Awards 2015 There are a lot of products that I want to try on this list. I will definitely have to purchase the Deva Curl product line! 

Essie released a new line called "Cashmere Matte." It looks  absolutely fabulous, but does it last ? After quite a bit of research, I found that many people who purchased the nail polish from the matte collection were unhappy and they said it chipped very easily. My favorite color in the collection is Just Stitched! I will have to go purchase it and see how I feel about it. I also will need to buy a matte top coat. What is your favorite color from this collection? & Have you tried this product?
