Beauty Products/Tips

Over at Kelly's Korner, she is hosting a SUYL- Beauty Secrets. Here are a few of the things I use.....


I have super curly SUPER frizzy hair. When I chose to style it curly, I usually put some John Frieda Frizz Ease, then put some moose in my hand and put a little bit of the sculpting gel with the moose. If I just used the sculpting gel, it would make my hair too hard. I find that the moose with the gel mixed (only a little) makes it not too hard, but keeps the frizz down.


For my straight days, I use the John Frieda Frizz Ease again with Bumble and Bumble Straight and my Paul Mitchell flat iron. I LOVE Bumble and Bumble Straight. I recently found it. I will tell you that I have tried EVERYTHING to get my hair straight. I love this the most so far. It's more expensive than other things, but it works really well and lasts awhile. I also find that the PM iron works better than the Chi. It is more expensive, but I have had it for probably 7 years. A chi never lasted that long. I also have a CHI hair dryer which works like magic and I use the Chi round brush.



As far as make up goes, I use Clinique, Laura Mercier powder, YSL mascara, lots of different kinds of eyeshadow.

I recently bought Peter Thomas creme in a tube because my face was really dry. I like it so far!

I need tips on blow drying my hair straight- which I do with a Chi round brush (they are magic) and then curling with a curling iron and actually getting the curls to hold. I don't have fancy tips for hair or makeup. I need some!

    Also I highly highly highly recommend (can you tell I love it?) Argan Oil for your hair. Josie Maran has a whole line of Argan oil products and the serum for your hair is THE BEST! Definitely get a hold of some. Sephora sells it.

  4. I have super curly hair too. Have you ever seen the book Curly Girl? I used to straighten my hair all the time, and since I started following this book's tips I hardly ever do. I actually like my hair. ;)

    You should check it out!

I am a single 20 something teacher in Charleston. I love to shop, decorate, cook, work with children, hang out with friends, and do anything in/on the water. Living near the beach definitely has its perks! I graduated from LSU and I LOVE to watch football. I will watch almost any college football game, but obviously love my tigers! I love to hang out with my family and hope to have my own one day.
