Ojon Hair Treatment Review

Hey Everyone, 
So over the weekend I did a much needed hair treatment. The one that I used and instagramed about was my long time love and old faithful Ojon. 
As a blogger we use a ton of stuff but one I always come back to is the 
Ojon  Restorative Hair Treatment Plus.
This stuff is a great price for what it does.It lasts for a very long time too. It's a 1.5 oz tub. You will want to keep this in a cool place. Too hot of an area and could melt on you. 
It's amazing for deeply damaged hair. I color treat my hair and run heat through it often. 
So how I use it is, it's a cold oil or lard consistency. Scoop out 1.5 teaspoon amount and melt between your hands for a few seconds, it should turn into an oil. Once an oil apply to the ends of your hair before you shampoo. If you have dry scalp apply to your scalp too, it will nourish your scalp. I comb it out and braid it. Leave in for 20 minutes. You need it to really penetrate your hair. Shampoo as regular and your hair will not be weighed down or extra oily. Leaves no residue either. 
Leaves my hair feeling soft and nourished. The scent is kind of earthy but not strong. You can't smell it either after you wash it out. I do this about once a month and it's one of the best!!

You can cancel if trying it is all you are after. New box comes with 3 nail polishes that were feat in the April Vivid Collection Box, a lipgloss and kohl pencil. Amazing huh!! 



Me, I love the Julep Polishes, they are by far my favorite. 4 Free, Cruelty Free, created with oxygenated formula to allow our nails to breath 30% more than a regular bottle of polish. They have great tools for keeping a nice manicure as well. My favorite finish fyi is the cream finish. One coat is all you need. The monthly incentives are just as appealing as the box themselves. As a maven you get 20% off everything all the time, free shipping at all times even on the smallest $2.99 clearance polish. You get 1000 Jules when someone signs up under your referral link. When you reach 2000 you can spend it on a free maven box. You also get jules when you get you maven box for that month. They have a secret store for the 1st few days of the month not seen by anyone but other mavens. Pretty awesome. They have alot of value packs and unreleased nail polishes. When you check out they have options for purchasing items at a discount. Coupon codes every month. It's almost endless. 
 Here are a few manicures. Just wanted to pop on and share my last haul and this news on Julep. Video at the very bottom. Enjoy!!

Perlier Honey Miel Royal Elixir Youth Serum

Hey Everyone, Today I am going to share with you the serum I have been using. It's no secret that if you follow me on YouTube I am always testing and preaching the good that comes from starting a good skincare system. Starting it early is always the way to go but if life has gotten in the way I have something that will make your skin not only feel rejuvenated but look like it. I have been using Perlier Face Honey Miel Youth Serum Royal Elixir. 

Now when I use this I feel like a part of royalty. Talk about treating yourself or Spa night!! This will do it. It's made from organic honey that when it resides in the Queen Bee she lives 50X longer than any other bee. The tonic that she emits is refreshing to dull skin. I have a few fine lines that I like to keep at bay and this has made them look invisible. Organic Italian Honey in this product is age defying. The texture is not what you may think when people say honey, you think sticky. It's not it's actually a silky feeling, non greasy, non transferable, thin serum. Hydrating and soft to the touch. The scent isn't heavy with honey scent. It's a light natural honey scent. Not overwhelming for the ones who can't take alot of scent. 

This is what I mean by treating your skin. It can also be doubled as a face cream for before your makeup as well as before bed. Doesn't clog your pores. It says on the website to use for 7 days straight at least once a month. I have been using this for 8 wks straight and have noticed a youthful texture in my skin. I am certain you will too if you get this. It has a convenient pump attached to it for easy dispensing and no messes. One pump will be all you need for your face and neck. Never forget your neck. It's the first place that starts to show signs of aging. Whatever you have left apply to the backs of your hands. Couldn't hurt right lol. 
I have had my eye on this and many products from the line. It's a whole skincare regimen that is fit for a Queen like you and I. To get a great deal on this stunner go here
Perlier pops up on HSN frequently so stay tuned. #PerlierOnHSN

My Perfect Twosome! Ivanka Trump & Deux Lux

Hello Friends, 
Today I just wanted to share 2 little somethings that I just got and are now my perfect twosome. 
One I got a Deux Lux Pink Glitter Ipad Case. You can find more like this one here. This one is super cute because it can double as a cross-body purse. The glitter is in-cased in a plastic so they won't fall off on you ever. Not to mention the plastic is great for travel. No mistakes with drinks or rainfall will destroy your gadget! Smart thinking over at Deux Lux. Comes with a cute dust bag for easy and safe storage. The hardware is stunning as all DL products. Has 2 loops for your strap that are gold and 2 gold charms adorned with the company logo to shut from both angles. The zipper is gold with a coral lining on both sides. The lining is so girly, it is covered in cream lining and gold polka dots. Spacious and Comfy so if your bag hits something hard your ipad/tablet/kindle will be safe!! Here is one that I found on sale!

Next my Ivanka Trump Sunglasses: First off I have to say I love that she wears her own products. We have all had that fear when buying that if the designer doesn't wear their own stuff it must be crap lol. She does however and it makes me comfortable in purchasing from her line. I don't buy sunglasses alot. It's something that once I find a great pair they are THE pair for like 3 yrs. I found these on a clearance of a popular website that merged with another and had deep discounts. I got these $78 glasses for $10. They are white on the inside and black on the outside. Described as Square Shape. Comes with a suede coral drawstring pouch, embossed with her name and logo on it. They are UV Protection. They have glossy arms until you reach the logo closer to the face portion they logo is small understated and matte. Very elegant and lady like. 

The Style: IT 2012
Color: Black and White
Retail: $78.00 BUT...I found a pair on sale>>>>
You can find I.T. sunglasses on sale here for $24.01 on Amazon, these are all black though. 
Together this is my new perfect twosome. 
I hope you enjoyed this post and subscribe for many more!!

Arbonne Calm & FC5 Review

Hey Everyone, 
I have a review for you on a beloved skin care line that I too have now fallen for. 
Arbonne is amazing. 
I got to try these products in the Calm Set and The FC5 Set. 
First off the FC5 Set is a hand and foot cream. The scents are so pleasant and calming after a shower. 
The calm set was not a thick formula which I really like. Ok now you have an overview let's dig in. 

The FC5 Ultra Hydrating Hand Cream: A must have if you have really dry hands or wash your hands a million times a day. The scent is not overly floral or fruity, it's pretty tame. 

The FC5 Cooling Foot Cream: Has a pleasant fruit smell without going overboard, specifically a slight kiwi scent . The cream is hydrating and doesn't leave you slick. Not so thick that it never soaks into your skin. Really great product. 

Calm Soothing Facial Serum: This serum compares to some of my more expensive serums and holds up just the same. It dries fast so you must work in sections. You don't need anymore than 3 drops for each part of your face. Absorbs very nicely. Leaves my skin looking brighter and less textured. 

Calm Gentile Daily Moisturizer: Great moisturizer, can be used under your makeup and even on hot days. Thin formula and absorbs quickly. Great for morning or night. I used mostly at night as part of the Arbonne regimen. 

Calm Soothing Eye Gel: This was my favorite of the calm set. The gel was cooling and brightened up my eye area. It settled in nicely and did a great job at hydrating the eye area. i could apply it before makeup and it didn't disturb my makeup or leave me feeling like my foundation or concealer will slide. I loved it. 

Calm Gentile Daily Cleanser: It was a nice cleanser. Left me clean without that tight feeling. Felt great after using it.
