Three Summer Beauty Products

June 21, 2012
Three products I’ve been using non-stop this summer:
ONE Kerastase Oleo-Relax Serum | This stuff is liquid gold. I love all Kerastase products that I’ve tried and this one is no exception. This is great especially on those hot, humid days — it keeps my hair smooth and frizz-free. Definitely worth the price. 
TWO Mac Eyeshadow in Blanc Type | I read about this eyeshadow a long time ago and have had it on my list of things to try. I finally bought it and love it. It looks really white in the container, but it goes on as a really pretty neutral. It’s really natural and helps to avoid those greasy summer-time lids. 
THREE Benefit That Gal Brightening Face Primer | I was never really a primer girl, but I’ve really liked this. It’s perfect underneath makeup or on it’s own and it adds a really pretty summer glow that I love.

I’ve had this image bookmarked since it was first posted on From Me To You — her makeup is gorgeous and it’s exactly how I want mine to be all summer long: light, fresh, and effortless. Thankfully all of her makeup is sourced so we too can get the look.

Three Beauty Products

Three recent favorite beauty products that are too good not to share:

ONE Clarisonic Mia Skin Cleansing System in Jaguar | This is one of the best things that happened to my skin. I use it at night time with a mild face wash like Cetaphil and clean the brush in between washings with baby shampoo {the same thing I use to clean my makeup brushes}. It is worth the cost {the Olay version doesn’t even compare} and the jaguar pattern is too cute for words.
TWO It’s a 10 Miracle Leave-in Plus Keratin | I fell in love with this years ago when a hair stylist used this on my hair. I finally purchased a bottle for myself and I’ve been loving it. My hair tends to be on the dryer side, but with this product you can’t tell at all. I use it right before blow-drying my hair. It smells good too!
THREE Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment Rose Tinted | I got this as an early birthday gift from Sephora and I love it. It leaves has the prettiest rosy tint and it moisturizes dry lips. Definitely my new favorite lip treatment!

February 20, 2012
I feel like I’ve finally gotten to a point where I’ve experimented with enough hair products and tools, and have finally found a regimen that works perfectly for me. I don’t use all of this every single day, but here are my tried and true favorite hair products. 
For clean hair | Keratin Perfect PerfectCleanse Keratin Enhanced Shampoo | This shampoo doesn’t have a lot of the chemicals that most shampoos do, and it cleans my hair without the build-up. Leaves my hair super soft and smooth.
For conditioned hair | L’Oreal Professional Expert Serie Force Vector Mask | My hair gets really dry and brittle, and this repairs everything. 
For soft, healthy hair | Moroccan Oil Hair Treatment | I apply this to the ends of my hair. It makes everything soft and silky. And it smells incredible.
For beach hair | Bumble and Bumble Bb Texture {Un}Dressing Creme | This gives my hair a beachy texture. I curl a few sections of my hair, then apply this for a messier look.
For next-day hair | Suave Professionals Dry Shampoo | This is my favorite dry shampoo that I’ve found. I spray it on my hair before I do a messy-top bun. Plus you can’t beat the price.  
For straight hair | Hana Professional Flat Iron | Misikko sent me one of their Hana hair straighteners, and it’s the best straightener I’ve tried. It heats up super fast and leaves my hair straight and sleek. {It also works for curling my hair}. 
For curly hair | Hot Tools Professional Spring Curling Iron | This is super easy to use and leaves my hair with big, soft curls.
