Pantene Moisture Renewal for FINE hair

Best drug-store find the Pantene Moisture Renewal for FINE hair. This stuff is amazing! At first I was skeptical to use it because I always thought I had medium to thick hair. But what I was noticing is that most shampoos really quickly weighted-down my hair. So one day I was desperate to try anything that will fix my dry, over processed, frizzy hair and I decided to give Pantene FINE Hair Solutions a go.

John Frieda Full Repair Flyaway Tamer

The John Frieda Full Repair Flyway Tamer is a must-have if you’re serious about  taming your frizzy hair. It looks and applies like a mascara for the hair though…DO NOT use on eyes. So when I’m done blow-drying my hair I use this Flyaway Tamer to get rid of these little spiky short hair that shows in the shadows. It makes my hair look and feel super polished and flyaways FREE.

Demeter Fragrance Library

In ancient Greek religion and myth Demeter means the goddess of the harvest, who presided over grains and the fertility of the earth. So the the Demeter Fragrance Library lives up to its name being a hand-picked perfume collection of the best smells of life. I’ve picked what I describe as Summer 2012: Demeter Gin & Tonic, Sex On The Beach, Dirt, Grass. and Clean Skin. Wear it alone, or layer, or wear one each the day. However you want to do it Demeter is great because it let’s you be the boss.

HOW TO

Things that Can Make or Break Your Skin

There are certain things that can really make or break my skin. I love to share my beauty secrets so here’s my list.

Too much sun. A little a bit of sun is OK, but too much sun can actually dry up my skin and even make it difficult to apply makeup. No face powder or foundation matches anymore so I can be stuck with a rare combo of dry yet super shiny face. To avoid this situation, I like to use a sensitive skin face moisturizer with SPF like Simple Vital Vitamin Day Cream with SPF 15, which moisturizes and protects skin all day.

Ombre

Ombre hair color trend. I seriously believe that Denis De Souza of the Andy Lecompte Salon in West Hollywood LA invented it. The first celebrity to be seen with this highly desirable Obre effect or what I like to call Brazilian Blonde was Rachel Bilson (which was done by Denis also). The rest is hair history.
