Review - L'Oréal Paris Elvive Total Repair 5 Restoring Masque

This hair product is my new obsession!
I love to take care of my hair and I love it especially when the product smells really nice. L'Oréal has lived up to its standards with this one.. It makes my hair smell expensive, eventhough it only costs $12 NZD.

I like how it is packaged with the maroon/red, white and gold theme, it'll definitely look good on anyone's bathroom :) The hair masque is suppose to be left in your hair for about 1-2 minutes, but as you know, when it comes to hair conditioning, I don't follow the rules so I leave it in for another 5 minutes to soak in the full nourishment.

How many times do I have to emphasize the smell..sweet sweet fragrance that stays in my hair for days. Lovely.

As for the results, it leaves my hair shiny from root to tip, soft and very manageable. I recommend this product and I will definitely buy it again and again and again!

To Inject or not to Inject? The Biggest Question of the 21st Century..

Okay so as we all know, that in this day and age, the general population of Hollywood has been injecting their faces like manic drug users with this thing called, Botox. What  is botox you may ask? Well according to the ever so informative website, Wikipedia, "Botulinum toxin is a protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, and is known to be extremely neurotoxic." Okay so in that sentence you might have noticed the words, "toxin" and "neurotoxic", which means that botox is harmful and poisonous to the nerves and nerve cells of your body and face. This process can destroy the nerve cells which can lead to numbness of the part of the body being injected. So, I still don't get why people would inject this botox poison into their face and lips just to look well, ridiculous really. 

So I did a bit of research (although I didn't need to look too far and wide) and I found a couple of actresses sporting the famous "frozen look" caused by botox:

Nicole Kidman

Kylie Minogue 

                                    

The Famous Cat Lady

I don't know about you guys, but their facial expressions don't look human-like-normal at all. Botox can lead to serious nerve damages and bad side effects. But for all I know, it'll be nasty. The Cat Lady sure looks happy. Or maybe not? I really can't tell, can you?

Botox is a personal choice, but if I were you, I wouldn't even think about it. And to those who have started injecting poison to who knows where, stop before you get hooked!

Review - Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula Lotion with Vit. E

One word: Yummy!

Palmers Cocoa Butter with Vitamin E is the yummiest body moisturizer I have ever used. I apply it all over my body twice a day and it leaves my skin smooth and moisturized for the whole day. But what I really love about this product is its smell.. The aroma is just addictive! Its like applying chocolate all over your body without the chocolate brown color lol! It comes in a pump bottle or in just a normal twist cap. I prefer the pump bottle because you just press it down et voila - the lotion magically appears! 

I highly recommend this product especially if you're a chocolate lover :)  The sweet chocolate/vanilla smell will wake up you up and give you that nice soothing feeling. Refreshing.

Hair, Hair and more Hair!

Who says blondes have more fun? Pfft! That is the biggest myth of all time. I don't have anything against blondes but I just think that dark hair is bootayful.

So I just wanna say that i love dark hair especially in men (: haha. For I, myself have black hair and I absolutely love it. Dark haired girls look exotic, mysterious (oooohh..) and just striking (wa-pow!).

To keep your luscious dark hair (or whatever hair color you have) soft and shiny, here are some tips from the one and only, Me. 

• apparently using baby shampoo can make your hair softer and smell nice like a baby's hair..lol. it is also gentle so it'll keep your hair clean without the added chemicals.
• washing your hair with bottled water can or would probably make a difference to your hair (you wouldn't know unless you try..right? then let me know if it works lol).
• everytime i have a post regarding hair tips, I always, religiously include this tip: HEAT PROTECTOR. for your hair of course. 
• and the second most important is to deep condition your hair at least once a week. this'll keep your hair nice and happy :)
• i like to tie my hair up when i go to sleep, like i put it in a bun so at night, when i wiggle around my bed (asleep) my hair doesn't get all tangled up and it'll also reduce frizz the next morning.

If you take care of your hair and follow my tips..then you might just have the dream hair that you've always wanted..(no guarantees ladies, but i like to be positive).

oh yeah, here's a pic of me and my bestie Steph .. i put it here because, duh, we both have dark hair :) and i also love this picture.
