Easy Hair Care + Products For Gorgeous Hair

I recently started posting “notes” on my fb blog page. Not sure how it happened but it just seems quicker sometimes + somehow not as formal as prepping a post for the blog. Here two recent posts on hair care :-)

natural light, no flash

So Milani is a brand that I’ve actually never tried before. Honestly their packaging is what kept me away for so long! There’s just something about all that gold that makes me frown. But I wanted to try a new red lip color…I’ll try almost anything at least once.

The Ultimate Mother’s Day Gift: Spa Sonic Skin Care System

7 piece professional kit

I was ecstatic to get the opportunity to review this face + body polishing system. I have been a fan of this brand in particular for over a year, I tragically injured my original earlier in the year + had not gotten around to getting it fixed. But anywho on with what I’m really here to talk about…this sweet gadget.

What I ♥: The Basics

The main device is waterproof with a rubber handle to keep a grip on it.

The attachments are easy to put on + take off.

It’s compact + can be easily stored.

Replacement attachments are easily available on the Spa Sonic website.

It comes with batteries :-) What could be more perfect than that!
