Influenster - Kerastase

My latest Voxbox arrived from Influenster.  Free products for my testing and review for the win!

This box was filled with all the products necessary to achieve #MyIdealCurl  !!  We all know my thick, curly hair needs all the help it can get!

At first I was hesitant to try a shampoo free haircare line, but away to the bathtub I went.  I will admit I was surprised by how well the products worked.  They smell great and tamed the wild beast on my head haha.  

Below are the screen shots of my reviews on the company website (Cleansing Conditioner and Oleo Curl Cream) and some product pictures.  Enjoy!

Makeup My Way

Today, I'm linking up with Kelly's Korner to talk make-up!!

I have to start with 2 disclaimers.  

1. I'm cheap. 

2.  Convenient is the name of my game!

I've never put a lot of time or money into makeup or pampering goods. $10 was my cap.   I'm the girl that used mascara WAY past the expiration date.  Then my sister moved in with me for a while and I'd occasionally use her makeup.....best/worst mistake!

Suddenly, I realized the fancy stuff from Ulta was kinda amazing.  I was still too cheap to buy it for myself, but after one birthday gift from her, I'm addicted.

So, here's my favorites collection (last 3 product pics borrowed from company websites)

1. Urban Decay Naked Palette - YDK is my favorite color.  The brush is also amazing.


2. Benefit Roller Lash Mascara in black.  It actually gives me the appearance of lashes!


3. Clinique Eye Liner.  I have about 5 colors. They last forever!



4. Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer. Old Holly never knew she needed this.....a sample came with my palette; now I'm hooked.  I don't wear it to work because I'm not sweating, moving, etc., but on weekends, vacations, trips, etc. I haul out the good stuff.




5.  Eye Shadow Crayons.  I'm still on the search for the perfect brand, so suggestions are welcomed.  I just love the convenience....I can apply while doing something else. 


And you can't wear makeup without the perfect remover/cleaner....


6. Cetaphil Cleaner. The only product I've ever found that doesn't leave my skin greasy or dry.  Takes eye make-up off without irritating my contacts too!


So now I have an Ulta account and an expensive makeup addiction.  Thanks Sister ;)
