summer CARE!



Summer is right around the corner... & there are some things I do that I'll share with you all!

5 basic things I do In the summer!!!

1. After tanning I use a tinted body moisturizer.

2. for my hair I put a sun protecting hair cream in 2 times a day depending on how long Im outside for.

3. The sun makes our hair extremely dry! So I use a deep conditioner on my hair every 3 months to re moisturize my hair.

4. The sun also makes our skin very dry so I try and get a facial once a month.

5. When Im not going off to work or somewhere important I try and stay away from heavy foundations. So I use Marcelle sheer tint fluid face moisturizer with SPF 15.
and SMASHBOX DNA extra black mascara.

Exfoliate, Moisturize & Tone!!!




Washing your face is so important I believe twice a day is good ( morning and night ). I'd use cleanser both times and a exfoliatiion scrub 3 times a week. If you have been out and have makeup caked on your face and dont need it on anymore, you should cleanse your face then too.

1. Burt's Bees Peach & Willowbark Deep Pore Scrub is amazing!!!
I use it in the shower and I scrub it on my face for 5 mins!
I do little circular movement with my fingers. Then rinse... my face have never felt so soft and the best part is it's sulfate-free!!! Willowbark Extract: This extract contains natural Beta Hydroxy Acids, which work as a natural skin exfoliants to help unplug follicles and pores.

2. Burt's Bees Radiance Dat Cream.... apply this the morning after you wash your face at night. This day cream has Royal Jelly: Very nourishing, royal jelly is made of nectar, pollen, flower parts, vitamins, minerals, and other natural ingredients. It is a very precious, mysterious substance that honeybees produce and feed to only select young bees, which in turn become mature and fertile queen bees. The queen bee lives 40 times longer than her worker bees.

3. Burt's Bees Rosewater & Glycerin Toner... toning is very important apply it with a make-up pad the stuff in the toner kills all the germs in your skin and prevent pimples from appearing or starting. The toner has Rosewater: Produced by the distillation of the fresh flowers as well as the distillation of the essential oil of roses, rose water is mildly astringent and soothing to dry skin.

You can get all this stuff in your drug store or get it online at...

hair tips



Wash your hair every 2 days washing your hair everyday makes it's dry and removes color from your hair fast and makes the color fade. Also shampoo and conditioners from the drug storecontains very harsh chemicals called sulfates
Sulfates strip the hair of its natural oils
Using sulfates on your hair everyday could make your hair dry and brittle
You may also notice your scalp is flaky (its most likely not dandruff but dry scalp)
 REDKENS http://www.redken.ca from the salons it's the best! 

SHAMPOO: Your hair 2 times in the shower and scrub your head still your arms hurt trust me lathering wont do it the job! 

CONDITIONER: The ENDS of your hair only!!! and comb threw the rest when you put conditioner on the top of your hair it ways down the hair when its dry and makes it greasy.
