Review: Redken Extreme Anti-Snap



I have been using this product for six months or so. I got it from fantastic sams hair salon, it was recommended but you can also find it at various other places. I use a lot of heat frequently, I flat iron my hair a lot so it tends to be damaged and proned to getting split ends. This product is a leave-in treatment, applied to your ends to make your hair stronger. It does not completely prevent split ends, I have noticed a great difference in my split ends using this product. They are not as bad as they are without it. I recommend this product to any one who flat irons their hair regularly. I apply it to my hair damp after showering, concentrating on the ends.

OMG!: MAC


So I was shopping in Macy's a couple weeks ago, just browsing around, I took the escalator to the second floor I look to the right and I couldn't believe my eyes, there was a MAC Counter! My jaw dropped. Since when did my mall have a MAC? Why didn't I know about this? I was so shocked and surprised. I thought my mall would never get a MAC. I found out the counter just opened a couple days earlier. Before I had little availably to a MAC, since before the nearest one was about an hour away. I'm so excited now I can purchase more MAC products. Seeing the new counter I had to purchase something. They still had a lot of stuff from the venomous villains. I really wanted something from that collection so I bought the Maleficent Lipglass in Revenge is Sweet. I love the color. I thought it would be very bold but its not at all, its the perfect shade.

Fashion Haul: Wet Seal, Walmart, & Hollister


Here are some items I bought over the past few months, I haven't really been able to shop that much recently which is really sad. I think fashion right now and was is in store is at its prime.I love everything!

What I got from Wetseal...


Lace Long Sleeve Tee in Dark Grey $10.50
I got this tee in dark grey. It is not the exact same one I got. The one I bought only had lace on the sleeves and had a different lace pattern.


Studded Shoulder Wrap in Taupe $21.50
I got this in the Taupe color.! I love the wraps from wetseal!

What i got from Walmart...

Miley Cyrus & Max Azria - Juniors Long-Sleeve Button-Down Denim Shirt $5.00
Love this! I got in on sale for 5 bucks. A denim shirt is a staple piece, you can wear it so many ways.

Miley Cyrus & Max Azria - Juniors Destroyed Denim Shorts $5.00
I got this on clearance too. Its not the same exact pair I got. Mine is a lighter wash, folded at the bottom, and studded on the sides.


What i got at Hollister...

Since I work at Hollister I can get two items every season for 50% off.


Solana Beach Sweater in Navy $39.50


Arch Bay in Light Navy Plaid $30.00



Arch Bay in Light Red Plaid $30.00

Fashion Haul: Wet Seal & Hollister


A few items I have added to my closet recently...

I got a $25 gift card to wetseal for my birthday so id decided to use it on an awesome deal wetseal is having currently which is 5 basic items (plain tees, tanks, leggings, shorts, etc.) for $20 so I could get more for my money instead of spending it on one item.


V Neck Tee in Fuchsia $4.00
Recently wetseal redesigned their V necks with a wider collar and a slightly different fit and material. I like them the material is more breathable and not as tight.


V Neck Tee in Deep Olive $4.00
I also got another V Neck in Yellow


Basic Amber Cami in Wine $4.00
This is not the exact one I got because its not online its similar though but it has a small lace trim on the collar.


Rib Tank Top in Black $4.00
I got this in black.


Chiffon Stud Tank Top in Olive $10.00
This is not the exact one I got its similar made out of chiffon in a green color but has different beading.

I also bought an outfit for work I'm going to be working at Hollister.


Surfriders Beach Plaid Button Down in Pink Check $29.89


Laguna Skinny Jeans in Navy $49.50

Products I Love Review: Garnier Fructis






I've been using Garnier Triple Nutrition Shampoo for about sic months now & it has become my favorite shampoo. I love that it is a thick gel shampoo not watery at all and it really works as it says. It has a fresh clean scent. I use this shampoo because my hair tends to dry out because I use a lot of heat. This shampoo replenishes the moisture lost and keeps my hair looking healthy.


Another product that I've been using from the triple nutrition line is the Nutrient spray which is a mix of olive, avocado, and shea. You can even seen the layers in the bottle. My hair gets really dry after straightening so I use this spray to add moisture and keep it smooth & soft. It works wonders, you only need 2-3 sprays to avoid making your hair greasy if too much is applied.


I just recently purchased the sleek & shine anti-humidity smoothing milk. I bought because i needed something to tame my frizz from the heat & humidity and from straightening it. When I first tried out the product it really did not work to well maybe because my hair was really frizzy from the combination of humidity and straightening it. After a couple uses it works really well at taming my frizz. I would recommend just like the spray as using it in small amounts to avoid having too much product in your hair. I usually use it on my towel dried hair after a shower. I find that works the best.
