April Wish-list!

Woo-hoo! I'm done with finals, and done with this semester! It is such a relief to know that nothing else is due! So now begins my summer =) I'm sorry I have been a bit MIA, but it is because I wanted to finish this semester and focus on that. So here I am, back again!

I have several items on my wishlist today. I may not purchase them all, or it may take a while to get them, but I would really like to try these!

1. Beauty Blender - This looks so cool and I have tried a "dupe" for it, but I just didn't get the concept. My best friend told me she loves hers and is worth the investment. So one day I will save for this to try it out.

2. MAC Frankly Scarlet - I want to try a red blush. I know they look crazy in the pan, but they give a pretty "snow-white" glow to you. There are a few options out there, but thought it would be cool to try a MAC blush instead of getting Tarte or Nars. What do you think?

3. Tarte Amazonian clay waterproof liner in black - I saw a YouTube video about this liner and it looked so smooth and buttery. The brush looks cute and so does the packaging! 

4. Stila All Day Waterproof Eyeliner - I have tried a different pen before, but didn't like it. I heard from several reviews that this one is a great, long-lasting, smudge-proof pen! 

5. Stila Convertible Color in Petunia - I had originally wanted Lilium or Gerbana, but thought they were pretty similar to other blushes I have. Petunia looks like a nice bright pink/corally color which is lovely!

What is on your wishlist?

Where Am I?

Hello lovelies! I know I have been somewhat MIA lately, but this upcoming week is my last week of the semester so I am busy studying and preparing for the finals. So don't worry! Just haven't really blogged due to all that is going on. I want to finish the semester strong and focus on that, so I will be back to normal schedule right after this week! See you then! <3

Pantene Ultimate 10 BB Créme

Its Monday! The start of a new week! This week is my last week of classes for the semester and the following week are my finals! Summer is just around the corner! 

Speaking of summer, since I am planning on being out in the sun often and swimming, my hair will probably be unhealthy and dry. So I have been on the search for finding items that can help provide extra moisture and also keep my hair healthy. 

Lately I have been using a shampoo and conditioner and I am not too thrilled about it. Supposedly, the conditioner has argon oil in it, but it has done absolutely nothing for my hair which disappoints me. My hair is lacking the moisture and silkiness that it use to have. I was in the market looking for something that would make my hair frizz free, soft and silky, conditioned, and healthy looking. I saw a commercial on TV about this new product...Pantene Ultimate 10 BB Créme.

"Inspired by skincare's BB phenomenon, this leave-in formula gives hair a healthy look while preparing it for enhanced styling control and a silky, smooth finish." It can be found at drugstores for about $6.

This is what it does:

1. Repair for rough hair

2. Strength against damage

3. Silky softness

4. Brilliant shine

5. Smoothing

6. Moisture

7. Frizz control

8. Heat protection

9. Manageability

10. Tamed fly-aways

I have had a 10 in 1 hair product before that did live up to some of its claims, so I wanted to see how well this one would hold up. First off, my hair is not rough, so I do not know how well it does that. Since I need to get a hair trim, I have split ends right now, so I am not sure how well it provides strength against damage. My hair does tend to get silky with this, but not as silky as I have had with other products. Next, I am looking for the perfect product that will give me the beautiful shine in my hair, but this one does an okay job at it. It does smooth my hair and provides a little of the extra moisture that I have not been receiving from my conditioner. It does not control all of my frizz or tame my fly aways. This disappoints me because I live in a humid climate and when it rains, my hair poofs out and looks like a mess. I usually never pay any attention to the heat protection claims because I use a separate heat protectant anyways. 

Would I repurchase? No, this product is just okay. It makes a lot of claims, and doesn't fulfill all of them for me. It may be different for you, but it just wasn't the miracle product I have been searching for. I guess the hunt must continue!

If you have any suggestions for your miracle hair products, let me know in a comment!

Now I have a question for you! I know there are times that I have writer's block and I have to come up with something! It may be sad that I have only been doing this for four months and get writer's block but with school and everything, I just need some time to think it through to write a nice post, instead of a quick pointless one! What kind of posts would you like to see on my blog?
