The darker the berry the sweeter the juice..

In other words, I went even darker! I just colored my hair a dark brown black.. I even tried toning it and its still coming through kinda red.. Not diggin it So I picked up my fav color line lol.. I first picked Natural Instincts in Midnight black its the "updated version" called 'Natural Instincts Vibrant'.. But then after doing some reseach and reading some of the reviews I read about lrich blackl # 37 in the creme formula. I usually don't like creme formula color because my hair is so thick but it worked like a charm. It went on nicely, less smell and less spill. It is so dark there's almost a blue tint to it! Perfect to get out the warmth and really give me that deeep dark olor I'm going for. I'm very pleased! Not to mention I got two boxes for like 3.00!!!!! It was on sale for 5.99 a box, then I came across a copon for 5 dollars off two boxes then because I was shooping attt walgrens they give you dollars of ur next purchase and I got 4 back from that and bam.. It ended up only being like 3 dollars! And my hair loooooks amazizing!

Gorgeous skin for all ages =)

Lancome Genefique or Estee Lauder Advanced night repair serum?

I was looking for something just to give my skin a boost.. Nothing to anti age because im not exactly there yet and when I am I'll need all the products in the world to actually work for me. I was first drawn to the Estee Lauder Advanced night serum because of my sister but when I had first tried it I thought I was getting an allergic reaction it but I think I was just having allergies because my niece and I both had sore swollen eyes, I decided to give it another try and I really loved it. I instantly the next morning saw a difference, I actually didnt know why until I realized the SERUM! I tried a two day sample from a friend that works for Estee Lauder, & then I tried Lancomes Genefique from another friend that works for Lancome. Ill admit Im still in the process of trying it & nothing! It says it works in 7 days, Why do I want to wait 7 days.. When I can have an instant glow? That and the price point of the advanced night serum is way lower then Genefique. Im going to finish my 7 day trial with genefique but I actually already purchased the Estee Lauder Serum & Eye cream =) So excited.. I just want it for those days I feel like my skins starting to feel boring or something.. Not forever plus Genefique says anyti aging on packaging but claims its for all ages.. a little contradicting.. The only thing about the EL serum is theres a day and night version so you have to get both for either day or night.. Im not too sure what the difference is but I got a GWP with the EL so Ill be able to review it as well.


Genefique ($98.00 for 1.7 fl. oz) :
Anti aging
Smells nice
Use for day or night
Tend to make me feel more oily then usual

Estee Lauder Night Repair Serum ($77.50 for 1.7 fl. oz) & Advanced night repair eye ($49.50):
Works instantly!!! (Winner for me)
Felt as if it balanced my skin oil
Protects skin befor damage even happens!

Project lose 25 pounds: Detox

7 Day detox pill- Topratedatburners.com
(Product Review)

Since I began my process of losing 25 pounds, Ive lost 13. I ordered lipovoz and the 7 day detox to help with the last 10 or so. When I started this pill 7 days ago I had already lost 10 pounds in about 3 1/2 weeks from dieting and excersize only. I believe its a possiblist i might have lost the other 3 from this pill but I honestly doubt it. I was still working out and eating exceptionally healthy.

My main concerns were feeling sick. I didnt have that problem. I began taking it befor lunch last sunday and started the lipovox as well 6 detox & 1 lipovox.. continually did it through out the week and finished the bottle with breafast today. I am glad I wont be taking 6 massive pills anymore but I am going to continue the Lipovox- Its a money back guarentee if it doesnt work!

I only got the detox pills because I heard it was good to detox befor losing weight, too bad they didnt really work but at least they were only like 10.00 they might work for other people but not me =( oh well.. Some things work for some people, some things dont.

Btw Im starting my 3 day diet tommorow, It worked wonders for me befor I lost like 35 pounds in a month befor, im only trying to lose ten now so well see how it goes!

Goodbye Orange hair! (hair product review)

I love orange hair dont get me wrong, When I get my hair done I tell my fabulous hairstylist exactly what to add to get the copped orange Im going for and I've turned a few stylist on to Loving the orange copper I must say!

Im ready to go dark, yes befor spring & yes befor summer! I was tempted to go black but Im sure I will go light sooner than later. Ive learned to really love and trust Clairols- Natural Instincts line, Its pretty much all Ill use from a drug store and I loved it when I went red in December.. First I'm reviewing the Natural Instincts Brass Free in Medium Brown.

Im only coloring the coppery parts of my hair from my former highlilghts & orange golden tone with the brass free. I'm preparing for my trip in April =) Gotta go there bangin on em' haha.

Once again On in ten minutes, leave in for ten. Im not sure if they added a little blue or green to cancel out the red / orange or if its a medium brown hair color- Only bad thing about box color, your not formulating it. Once again, Chemicals are chemicals- Theres no difference between box and professional color besides the stylist and I say that as a Professional hair stylist.

At first I wasnt sure what to expect, I read a couple of reviews and read great things. I just wanted to get rid of the brass and prepare for my dramatic change coming up- Which is going to be a rich dark brown! While washing it out it was very ashy- a good sign ash is opposite of brass!

It was a lot darker then I was expecting, Not a bad thing whatsoever in my case, being that Im was planning on going even darker in a few weeks.


I wokeup the next morning and saw the parts of my hair that werent color and it was still lighter and more red so I decided to color it all dark sooner then I wanted to.

So once again I applied 2 boxes of the Natural Instincts in Ebony Mocha!
To me- dark hair id dark hair and Im not too fond of it, Its not greatly flattering but its safe. Im happy with it =) It processes fastand has a soft shine- I like that its not desgustingly dark and Im sure it will fade a little befor my trip. All good.

Befor:
Red base with Copper highlights galore

After:
Dark Ebony Mocha Delight

Hope this was helpful..
