Elf plumping gloss review and March makeup haul!

Image
Blame my massive makeup purchase on the fact that there were a couple of sales and I could NOT say no.    Don't judge me :p There were so many products that I had to put them into three categories:  Eyes, Lips, Face with nails. The eye products are pictured below: Some of the eye makeup here that I have never tried include Physician's formula, Malibu glitz, Wet & Wild, Ruby kisses.  I can't wait to try them! The face and nail products can be seen here: The items that I tried before in this photo are the Jordana nail polish (other shades, not this one) and the green tea mask.  So many products, so little time! The lip products are shown here: The EOS lip balm is the second lip item here that I would like to try.  Unfortunately, I have to wait until my current Blistex lip balm is used up.  I say the second lip item because I  first decided to use and review the Elf plumping gloss.

So it is basically a couple of months away from the summer season.  On the Caribbean island where I reside, this means an abundance of beach parties.  That is when I realized that I kinda, sorta, conveniently forgot to go running for five whole months.  Oopsie.

5 NOURISHING PRODUCTS FOR NATURAL & TRANSITIONING HAIR!

Image
 Maintaining natural or transitioning hair is no easy feat.  However, if we find the most suitable products to deal with our delicate tresses, then the process becomes so much easier.  I have been happy and relaxer free for approximately five months.  Over that time I have been researching and exploring different products to deal with my dry, bouncy strands. Five of my most trusted products are discussed below: 1.  Motions weightless clear hairdressing. I've been using this product for two weeks.  My hair retains moisture for longer when this is used.  In addition, no filmy residue remains. 2.  African pride Dream Kids Olive Miracle Instant Moisturizing Detangler. This product has been used for at least two months.  It moisturizes and helps me out when finger combing my dry hair before styling.    3.  Aunt Jackie's Curls and Coils knot on my watch Instant Detangling Therapy.   I need to describe this product as the Godzilla of detanglers
