LiQWD Professional Volumizing Hair Care Set Review and Giveaway (3 Winners!) [CLOSED]

liquid7My hair has a lot of impact on the way I feel about myself each day. If I get out of the shower and throw it into a pony tail, I feel grungy the rest of the day. If I throw a little product in it & actually spend time to make it look nice, I feel good about the way I look and it shows in my mood. I have tried to deny the fact that salon quality products are necessary for beautiful healthy hair, but I can’t do it anymore. There is a reason my hair feels great for days after a visit to the salon…..it’s all in the quality of product that they use!

“LiQWD’s founders set out to revolutionize hair care with a breakthrough line that seamlessly fuses science and beauty to produce the kind of off-the-charts results that support salons, spotlight stylists and positively thrill clients. Working from the fact that traditional products deposit treatment ingredients onto hair’s surface layer for underwhelming results, they collaborated with leading chemists to create intensive treatment and color care compounds and the most state-of-the-art delivery systems imaginable. They incorporated these into a streamlined collection of eight, easy-to-stock-sell-and-use, dynamic products that work individually or mix together to provide every possible benefit and effect for every type of hair. Finally, they made an unwavering commitment to sell the line exclusively through prestige salons and www.liqwd.com, never in regular retailers.” liquid5

LiQWD Professional Volumizing Hair Care is exactly the salon quality product that I want to keep in my bathroom FOREVER! My hair is pretty long and in the past, it has been nearly impossible to add volume to. I was so excited to try LiQWD’s products to see if they made a difference. The Shampoo & Conditioner are fantastic! I only have to use a small amount and they make my hair feel clean & smooth. That is hard to do with the unbelievably HARD water that we have in our house! I also love that they are color safe. I can’t afford to go into the salon every month, so having a shampoo & conditioner that won’t strip my hair of its color is really important to me!

Volumizing Shampoo
”The ultimate, high-powered solution for hair that’s flat, lifeless or simply unexcited, LiQWD Volumizing Shampoo employs exclusive, Nano-Hydrasphere™ technology to infuse hair’s critical cortex layer with proprietary volumizing compounds.
The result is alert, energized, treatment-ready hair.”

Volumizing Conditionerliquid8

“The ultimate, everyday treatment for hair that’s flat, lifeless or simply unexcited, LiQWD Volumizing Conditioner employs exclusive Nano-Hydrasphere™ technology to infuse hair’s critical, cortex layer with proprietary volumizing compounds.
The result is vibrant, animated hair that’s primed to perform to perfection.”

I was also sent a couple of other products from LiQWD:

liquid9SLIQWD

“One amazing product creates two radically different looks. Finger tousled or diffused, they produce flowing waves for a fun and flirty finish.”

I like using the SLIQWD when I am in a hurry. It gives me a bit of curl but none of the frizz.

Professional Volumizing Catalyst

Described as “life-changing” by celebrity stylist,liquid3 Rachel Zoe, and “Va Va Voom” by ELLE Magazine’s Beauty Editor, LiQWD Professional Volumizing Catalyst is an unprecedented styling mist that literally builds hair up to be dynamic, richly textured and phenomenally full.

This spray is probably my favorite product of all! It really does ‘build my hair up’. That is the only way I can explain it. It’s the perfect volumizing spray to use when I flat iron my hair so it isn’t so lifeless. I love it!

 

Of course, all these products work best when used in conjunction with each other and they really do work. I can honestly tell a difference with my hair. they make my hair easier to style and give my hair the volume that I want without all the build-up that hairspray would leave. I love knowing that I am using one of the best volumizing products for my hair.

Things that are BRAG WORTHY”

  • Is color safe
  • Smells great
  • Makes hair look full & beautiful
  • Will make you feel like you just got back from the salon (everyday!)

When I am wearing them I feel so great because I finally have the hair I have been longing for my whole life. I am loving my NuMe Hair Extensions! They make me feel like a Nu Woman!

jfringscarf_004purple_medium b01411r_v01_1_medium

I was particularly drawn to their handbags and purses because I have been looking for a new purse.  I immediately fell in love with the Flower Purse purse2(pictured above) isn’t it just so Fabulous?!  This purse is available   in 3 colors: white, dark brown, & tan. I chose to get the tan and couldn’t wait for it to  arrive.  The shipping was really quick I wasn’t expecting it to arrive so soon.  I was thrilled when I unwrapped my new purse.  It’s even prettier in person.  The inside is leopard print (so fun!) I love that.  It comes with a handle so you can carry it on your shoulder as well as carry it by the handle.  It has a lot of pockets inside, a cell phone & wallet pocket and many other zipper pockets.  I like that I am able to keep everything organized inside.   I have received so many compliments on my new purse, and I am so happy with it! Just Fashow is such a great place to get your Fashion Accessories!

Bioken Botanical Hair Care Review and Prize Pack Giveaway

215999848Bioken believes that all things start with Nature, and thus all things must return to Nature. When investigating thinning hair and scalp damage it also became apparent that all things can be healed by Nature.
Nature holds the secret to beautiful hair. It always has. Bioken combines Nature’s native qualities in a balanced formula of Full Vitamins, Bee Propolis, and natural herbs.”

I love long, dark, and for the most part healthy hair. I’ve never really thought of using a treatment, but I was glad I picked the Bioken Enfanti Treatment to review. I was very pleasantly surprised what a difference it made in my hair! It really felt even healthier than it  previously was- I couldn’t stop touching it! I also got to review 2 styling products- the Camu-Camu Texture Cream an167d Camu-Camu Styling Wax. I really liked them both! I have a natural wave to my hair, so the texture cream was perfect for styling it. And I LOVE the styling wax for when I flat iron my hair. It gives it that extra hold. I can’t wait to try out some more Bioken Botanical Hair Care Products!

Things that are Brag Worthy:images

  • Sulfate-Free
  • Anti-aging formula in their hair products
  • Antibiotic therapy that protects your hair while encouraging its healthy growth
  • Perfect color retention
  • Full of vitamins
  • TONS of products to choose from

Visit www.thebioken.com to see these, and many other awesome hair-care products!

Melvita Natural Beauty Products Giveaway

    

melvita1 image

Ecological, organic, and natural beauty products since 1983

In 1977, Bernard Chevilliat, Biologist and lover of the open countryside, moved to the Ardèche. Located in South-central France, it is named after the Ardèche river, and is known for its wide-open spaces, limestone cliffs, and stone arches. Soon after arriving, beekeeping became his main passion. With help from his Wife and Brother, they grew this hobby to over five hundred hives, on an isolated farm in the middle of the countryside.

In 1983, they founded MELVITA and developed their first natural organic beauty product based on ingredients from the hive. Starting with Melvita’s famous hexagonal soap, they moved on to shampoo, milks and creams, floral waters, plant oils, etc.

In 2002, Melvita was one of the first companies in the world to earn the ECOCERT certificate for organic products. Becoming the global trend-setter for natural organic beauty products.”melvita2

Just the other day I was introduced to Melvita.  They have so many wonderful natural products like argan oil.  Did you know that argan oil can be used for so many things like dry skin and also dry and damaged hair? I think I should get some for my hair it is looking a little damaged these days.  Be sure to check out all their organic skin care products!

Beautiful Hair Extensions

 

I have always envied the girls who have the long, thick beautiful hair.  I was born with very fine and very thin hair.  Don’t get me wrong I love my hair it is very healthy, shiny and soft, but I’ve always wished I had more of it.  When I grow my hair long it starts to look stringy.  And don’t even get me started about how I wish I could do the thick curls that look so glamorous. So, my point is, I have been thinking a lot lately about getting Hair extensions.  When done right they can look absolutely amazing. I think I will get addicted instantly once I try them and have the long thick hair I’ve always wanted.hairextensions

Chiquel.com.au has a wonderful selection of beauty products.  Whether you want clip in hair extensions or permanent hair extensions, they’ve got them!  Be sure to check them out.

ToiletTree Products Fogless Shower Mirror Review and Giveaway [CLOSED]

“Finally a fogless mirror that actually remains clear in the shower – and sticks to the wall!”

“Our patent-pending design is simple yet most effective. Fill the mirror’s reservoir with hot water from your shower head and you’re done.                                      It’s ideal for close shaves, cleansing and exfoliating, removing make-up, tweezing and more.                                                                                                            No chemicals or special coatings required. Our shower mirror is designed to remain fogless and maintenance-free for a lifetime.                                                           No more cleaning up messy, hair-filled sinks.                                                          No more standing over your sink dripping wet while you shave, tweeze, or remove your make-up. Get it all done in the shower and be done!”

My husband shaves in the shower so he has to have a mirror in there so he can see what he is doing. In the past he has just used a simple handheld mirror. He hangs it on one of the shower curtain hooks and constantly has to run it under the water to ‘de-fog’ it. What’s worse than that, is it was lying on the bathroom floor one day & I stepped on it and cracked it pretty good (funny that he still uses it).

With the ToiletTree Fogless Shower Mirror, we aren’t having those problems anymore. First of all, this mirror isn’t crackedRolling on the floor laughing. And since it adheres to virtually any surface, it isn’t going to crack. Even if it falls or we drop it accidentally, it is shatter proof because the mirror is acrylic. Second…well it’s FOGLESS!!!

HOW DOES IT WORK?

You simply fill the mirrors’ water reservoir with hot water from your shower head & you are done! The water neutralizes the mirror and air temperature to eliminate fogging.

The frame pivot allows the mirror to be adjusted, accommodating multiple users and angles. It even comes with a little shelf to place your razor, sponge or tweezers so they are always accessible.

DID YOU KNOW?

Dermatologists recommend performing daily skin care regimen in the shower as this promotes healthier looking skin.

The combination of heat and moisture opens the pores and creates an ideal environment for shaving, exfoliating and cleansing.

Having a fogless shower mirror that gives you a clear view will make your regimen easier & quicker. ToiletTree Products makes the perfect shower mirror!

Things that are BRAG WORTHY:

  • Easy Fill Reservoir
  • Adheres To Virtually Any Wall Surface
  • Adjustable Frame
  • Convenient Shelf
  • Squeegee Included
  • Shatter Proof And Rust Proof
  • Truly Fogless

Goat Milk Stuff Natural Soap Review and Giveaway [CLOSED]

I never thought I could love a bar of soap as much as I do my Goat Milk Soap! Yes, GOAT MILK SOAP from Goat Milk stuff. I was so excited to try this handmade soap , and it is certainly all I thought it would be!

“As our goats might say, our goat milk soaps contain nothing Baah-d. Ever. We use only natural fats and oils. The colors are all natural too, never from dyes or synthetic colors and we only use high quality essential or fragrance oils to scent our goat milk soaps. You’ll love the scent, the feel, and the bubbly lather these ingredients give every bar of Goat Milk Stuff soap. We have a wide selection of soaps including special soaps for shaving, scrubbing off dirt, exfoliating, and chasing away bugs. You’re sure to find a goat milk soap you’ll love for yourself or to gift to someone else.”

Goat Milk Stuff let me choose 3 full-sized bars of natural soap. It was difficult to choose…there were a lot of scents that I wanted to try, but I narrowed it down and this is what they sent me:

Black Raspberry Bar The sweet raspberry scent is softened by a hint of vanilla. This is an across the board favorite, delighting little girls, ladies, and grown men alike.”

Oatmeal, Milk, & Honey bar “It is hard to resist the wonderful fragrance of oatmeal, milk & honey. It is a very warm fragrance that pulls you in with that sweetness of honey.  This is our most popular bar of soap and makes a great gift.”

Foot Scrubby “Our foot scrubby is a loofah sponge filled with our peppermint essential oil soap. This is an energizing scrub for tired and achy feet.”

How much can one say about soap?

Well I can say a lot about the Goat Milk Soap that showed up at my doorstep. First of all, I could smell it before I even opened the package. It was amazing. After I opened the package, I set the bars of soap on my dresser and left to do a few things. When I walked back into my bedroom, it was like I had put an air freshener in there. My room smelled wonderful and I was tempted to just let the soap sit and make my room smell delicious. But I couldn’t resist….plus I needed to review the soaps Winking smile.

Currently, I am using the Foot Scrubby and the Black Raspberry Bar. I hate what winter does to my skin. I usually feel itchy all the time even after I lather on the lotion. But the Black Raspberry bar has done wonders for me. I still use lotion, but I haven’t had one day of the itchiness that use to drive me CRAZY!

Now the Foot Scrubby is great. It is a loofah sponge filled with soap and I use it exactly how you would think….I scrub my feet with it. It’s a great way to exfoliate and keep my feet soft & smooth (I NEED this soap for the summer months!) They both lather really well too, which was pleasantly surprising. I am not a big fan of soap that doesn’t lather…..it makes me feel like it isn’t doing it’s job.

The bars I received were about 6 ounces. I started using the the Black Raspberry bar on November 20th, and I am almost about 3/4 of the way through it (and I use it everyday). So they last a good while. I store mine outside the shower so I can get as many uses as possible out of them!

Here is something else that is really great: Goat Milk Soap is made by a cute little family in Indiana just a few hours from where I live. Seriously, the kids milk the goats and everything. Isn’t that amazing! I want to take a little drive down to their farm just to see if it smells as wonderful as I think it would…..probably unlike any farm I’ve ever smelled before Winking smile.

Sweet Smelling, Long Lasting, Bubbly Bar Soaps

“Every goat milk soap bar contains about an ounce of raw goat milk from our farm. This gives each and every bar we make a creamy goodness your skin will love. We hand cut every bar and cure it for a minimum 6 weeks. Every piece is unique in appearance, size, color and scent. Like our eight children, no two are alike. While our soaps last a long time, our impact on the environment doesn’t. We use a 4″ x 6″ cotton bag to package our goat milk soaps; this is friendlier to the environment than plastic and lets your soaps breathe. Bars come in several sizes. You can choose a regular bar size, half bar size, or travel size. With every order you may also choose a total of up to 3 free samples.”

Things that are BRAG WORTHY:

  • Made with natural ingredients
  • Custom ordering available
  • They have soaps to help with eczema, psoriasis, acne, and more
  • Won’t leave soap scum or a film in your shower or on skin
  • Money back guarantee (like you would need it)

ENJOY Hair Care Products Review and Giveaway [CLOSED]

enjoy7

“…We are focused on a unique approach in keeping our products truly professional by providing hairdressers with the knowledge and power to prescribe ENJOY products based on customers wants, needs and the understanding of who the true competition is….”

I am a big believer that Professional Hair Care Products enjoyare a must-have if I want beautiful, healthy hair. That is why I was so excited to try products from ENJOY. They sent me several different products and I LOVE them all!

LUXURY SHAMPOO and CONDITIONER *Gently cleanse, moisturize and smooth while relieving stressed out hair and scalp. Discover what pampering your hair is all about.*

enjoy5

The first things I love about this shampoo & conditioner is that the shampoo is Sulfate-free. Safe ingredients are always number one in my book. I also love the way these smell. They are amazing! Reminds me of the sno cones I get where I grew up. The conditioner is so great. I only need a small amount and it makes my hair soft & easy to brush through. I love hair washing days! The shampoo can be used as body wash as well!

HAIR and SKIN TREATMENT OIL *This incredible non-greasy, dry lightweight formula instantly penetrates and absorbs into hair and skin reducing drying time dramatically without buildup. Smooth, condition, and seal with amazing shine. Eliminates frizz. Locks in moisture, blocks out humidity. Alcohol-Free. For All Hair Types. Excellent for use on dry skin areas, cuticles, nails, feet, hands and elbows. Great after shower.*

enjoy1

I use this a few times a week. Anything that eliminates drying time gets an A+ in my book. And it really does smooth my hair. I blow dry, curl, or straighten my hair several times a week, so this oil is something that will protect my hair from heat damage. You can also use this product on your skin!! 

VOLUMIZING MOUSSE  *Create volume, smoothness, shine and root lift. Define curl and texture without buildup or flaking.*

enjoy3

I need major volume so this mousse is something I use almost everyday. Sometimes I apply before I blow dry, other times I apply it after. This is the one product that I share with my daughter because she has naturally curly hair. I love how it defines her curls without making it ‘crunchy’. It’s great!

SHINE and SMOOTH  *Eliminates frizziness. Makes hair soft and silky without weighing it down. Adds incredible shine and smoothness to any style or hair type. Great for hair and skin. Locks in moisture, blocks out humidity.*

enjoy4

This product is a must for anybody who wants beautiful hair. It’s quick to apply & gives a beautiful shine. I am curious to see the difference it makes during the summer months when it is so humid (here in Indiana). I definitely need something to block the humidity and keep my hair smooth! You can use this on your skin as well but I plan on saving all of it for my hair.

enjoy8

Choosing the Right Flat Iron and Hair Dryer

 

KQCXHEAT-2T

 Hair Straighteners are such a great invention.  I don’t know what I would do without them!  Having a great quality Flat Iron is priceless to me.

Here are some things to consider when choosing a flat iron:

  • Choose a flat iron with Tourmaline and Ceramic Technology.
  • Buy a Flat Iron with a good warranty.  Odds are if they have a good warranty it’s because they know their product is quality.
  • Consider wet to dry flat irons.  This is a really great way to save time while styling your hair.
  • Some flat irons have suspended plate technology that prevents pulling of hair, (which you know if awful if you’ve had a crappy flat iron before).
  • It is worth spending more in order to get quality.

 

When it comes to drying your hair, you don’t want to settle for less than the Best Hair Dryersdryer

Here are some things to consider before purchasing a hair dryer:

  • Look for a dryer with Tourmaline Ceramic Technology that emits far-infrared heat and negative ions; drying your hair from the inside out, preserving the natural moisture in your hair.
  • Choose a dryer that is quiet.  Once you have tried a quiet blow dryer you will never go back to your old noisy beast of a dryer again.
  • Don’t go with the cheapest dryer you can find.  This is a huge mistake.  Cheap dryers are bad for your hair and paying more for a good quality hair dryer is worth every penny.  Consider it an investment into your hair’s future.
  • It’s nice if you can find a dryer that is lightweight.

Take the time to research and find the best flat iron and hair dryer for you!

    Help Your Tween Have Confidence with Unilever

    degreemen

    “Recently, Unilever released the Tween Confidence Index, which suggests that tween confidence is short-lived but can be safe-guarded by maintaining strong communication between tweens and parents. With this and more resources available at DontFretTheSweat.com, Unilever hopes to show parents that they can talk to their tweens about how the right deodorant can keep them free from odor, embarrassment and discomfort along the way.”

    There isn’t anything worse for your tween than being made fun of by their peers (at least in their mind).  Embarrassing underarm body odor is something you want to avoid, or tackle quickly.  Unilever has great deodorant for tween boys and girls.  We were sent Degree Men’s for C to try.   It smells really good, I tell him he smells so handsome with it on. (In fact, I love the smell so much I went and purchased some for my hubby as well).  C hasn’t had problems with under arm odor yet…but I know it is coming soon.  So I thought, what better way to avoid embarrassment than by taking action now to avoid it.  It is never to early to tackle under arm odor.  It is so important for your Tween to feel confident, and with Unilever Deodorant products, they have one less thing to worry about.  They will know that they smell good, giving them the confidence to be all that they want to be.

    DiamondEarrings.org is a new website that will soon be selling diamond earrings and jewelry.  Right now they are giving away a FREE Pair of Earrings when you help spread the word about them online!  You only have to pay $3.77 shipping.  That is a great price for these Earrings.  I was sent a pair and they are so pretty.  They aren’t diamonds (cubic zirconia or similar) but they look like they could be!  I have really sensitive ears so most earrings irritate my ears.  I have been wearing these ones for a few days now and not a sign of irritation.  Which means they aren’t cheap earrings (I would know by now if they were).  You can visit www.diamondearrings.org to get your free pair today!

    The 3D White Difference

    New Crest 3D White is a collection of products that work together to give you a brighter smile—plus the health benefits you expect from Crest and Oral-B. Each product in the 3D White collection works uniquely to give you a stand out smile.3D-White-Whitestrips-Professional-Effects

    Whiten

    The five different Crest 3D White Whitestrips teeth whitening systems such as Crest 3D White Whitestrips Professional Effects use the same enamel-safe ingredient dentists use to give you whiter teeth by getting at the stain build-up below the tooth’s surface. The level of this type of whitening varies per product, so you can decide which is best for your 3D White smile.

    Clean

    The Crest 3D White line of toothpastes such as 3D White Vivid Toothpaste give Project16you whiter teeth by removing surface stains, while the Oral-B 3D White  Advanced Vivid Toothbrush removes plaque buildup on a daily basis, helping to maintain the beautiful smile that 3D White Project15Whitestrips can give you.

     
    Protect

    A 3D White smile doesn’t end with brushing alone. When you add Crest 3D White Multi-Care Whitening Rinse to your brushing routine, you’re actually protecting your teeth against future stains, helping to ensure your 3D White smile stays that way.3D-White-Whitening-Rinse

    I was sent the Crest 3D White Collection to review and I have been using it for a month now.  I am so impressed with the results I’ve seen!  My teeth are so much whiter, I get compliments from my friends and family. I am not able to use the products every single day, since I have very sensitive teeth and if I use to many of the products at once each day then my teeth will ache ( I know I am a pansy).  I have been using everything 3 times a week, rotating days for each product so I am not over doing it on my sensitive teeth (except the toothbrush I have been using that everyday and love it).  I have been getting fabulous results with my slower teeth whitening method so if you don’t have sensitive teeth then you can use the items everyday, or even twice a day and get super speedy results! I am so excited that I can get a professionally whiter smile without paying the dentist visit prices!  I am hooked on Crest 3D White Collection for life!
