butter LONDON Nail Polish Collection
I had the luxury to discover the butter London nail polish collection backstage at Betsey Johnson Spring 2009 Collection. I was in love with the funky shades, particularly the super sparkly butter London in Rosie Lee. What I also noticed that Rosie Lee was layered with other shades, such as: British Racing Green. The overall effect complimented Betsey Johnson’s super funky and playful collection. Other shades include: Minger. Scoundrel. Pearly Queen.
What else: butter LONDON stormed NYC Fashion Week this season (SS 2010), with the introduction of British Racing Green. Hand mixed by their Creative Director Nonie Creme for the Vena Cava show, this shade has already been noticed by Vogue, W Magazine, Lucky, Ladies Home Journal, and Redbook.

Oscar Blandi Pronto Dry Shampoo
Lately I’m giving the Oscar Blandi Pronto Dry Shampoo a go. First time for me! I’m still getting the hang of using it. I put a little bit on my ends and tiny on the roots. If your hair is oily, the powder works well in controlling that too oily feeling. I wouldn’t skip my wash entirely with this dry shampoo. But on the days I haven’t washed my hair this product makes my hair smell good and refreshed. Verdict: it’s a keeper. Available at Sephora and sephora.com

Living Proof No Frizz Shampoo and Conditioner
To get my hair silky smooth and frizz free is sometimes a mission. So many times I spend up to 1 hour blow drying my hair and my hair keeps frizzy. Sounds familiar? Not this weekend though. Thanks to Living Proof Shampoo and Conditioner. Wow. My hair not only was straight and silky after blow drying, but it is still frizz free 2 days later!! (I try not to wash my hair everyday). I haven’t tried the Living Proof styling products, now I’m very tempted. I think I’ve seen Living Proof hair care products in Sephora and Sephora.com
