Everyday *straight* Hair Routine

Hello Peoples! I know I have been a salcker lately and I sincerely apologize :-) .... < smiley face makes it all better! Today I will explain my daily hair routine for when I straighten my hair. I was just going to call it "My Daily Hair Routine" but there are many days when I am either lazy (shocker, I know) or I desperately need to wash my hair before I go somewhere but I don't have time to straighten it and I wear it curly, so I decided to to do a two-part thing where I explain both of them. So... here goes.

I start by washing my hair. Here lately I have been using the John Frieda Sheer Blonde Color Renew Tone-Restoring Shampoo (it's purple) and the Dove Daily Moisture Deep Conditioner. I bought the conditioner at Walgreens for like $1 something... I was very excited :) It doesn't feel like your typical "daily conditioner" it is very very thick. It reminds me of like a weekly 5 minute treatment or something, which is actually what I thought it was when I started using it. I do like the conditioner that matches the shampoo, but once I used this and saw how awesome it made my hair feel, I was hooked lol. Which is weird because I am not usually a fan of Dove hair products... Anyways... I shampoo my hair twice with the purple shampoo (a little back story on that... when I was little and just starting to wash my own hair, my mother always told me to shampoo twice. It wasn't until I got older and read the bottle that I noticed that it was an option lol. I have tried just shampooing once but it just doesn't feel like it gets my hair as clean (my hair gets oily really quickly). If I wash my hair two days in a row, I will only shampoo once because it isn't really that dirty, but anytime after that, I always shampoo twice... but back to the blog....) After I shampoo my hair, I put just a small bit of the conditioner on the ends of my hair, then I rinse it all out. Then I put a larger amount everywhere except the roots and comb it through.  My hair tangles really easy, and I've found it a lot easier to comb it out with the conditioner on it, instead of waiting til after I shower. Then I rinse all of that out....

I put my hair in a towel and just sit around for about 15 minutes....

Then I apply about a nickel sized amount of Nexxus Sleek Finish Frizz Taming Lotion through my hair from about my ears down, and on the ends of my bangs. Then I put about the same amount or just a little bit more of Pantene Humidity Protection cream (because even in the dead of winter, in Louisiana, humidity will never cease to make you it's bitch...) Then I blow dry my hair. I just brush through it while I'm drying it to semi-straighten it out. Then I spray it with got2b Guardian Angel Heat Protectant. Then just section it off and straighten it with a flat iron. The next day, I just re-straighten it and spray the roots with Pssssst! Dry Shampoo where it is starting to look oily. I usually try to wash it again the next day, but if for some reason I can't I re-spray the roots with the dry shampoo, straighten just my bangs (they don't really qualify as bangs, I just like to call them that because I don't really know what else to call them.. I usually call it "the front of my hair" but it just sounds weird so for now, I am calling them bangs....) and I just put it in a ponytail. Or, if it absolutely has to be washed but I am running low on time, I just wear it curly. And I will tell you how I do that in my next blog! :) Hopefully it won't be a month from now. See ya later! ~Rebecca

Worst blogger ever...

If there were an award for the most inconsistent, lazy, non-dedicated blogger... I would win. Hands down.
And it's not that I forget, or don't have enough time. It's that I stress myself out by thinking that every post has to be perfect. Not saying that my past posts are Pulitzer Prize worthy, let's not get crazy... but that is about the best I can do... sad, I know. But I always feel like everything has to be worded perfectly and that it needs to be a certain length, and all kinds of other crap that I don't feel like thinking about because I will stress over it too... (for example, it is aggravating the hell outta me that I only gave 2 instances and I wanted to give 3 but I couldn't think of a 'perfect' one so I just said "and other stuff"... lame, I know...) But I do have many blogs that should be coming up soon, I just have to finish taking a couple more pictures :) And I am going to start trying to stress less about it and just type it as it comes out... prepare yourselves, this could get ugly ;-)    ~Becca

Review: Wet N Wild Eye Makeup Remover

I normally just use my Neutrogena Makeup Remover Wipes to remove my eye makeup, but on my lovely Rite Aid trip I decided that I needed to buy everything that was on sale that day so I got the WnW Remover... When I was opening all of my goodies, I swatched a few on my hand just to see how they looked and instead of washing it off, I decided to try the remover... it did not work at all. But I was determined to love all of my purchases so I decided that I needed to actually use it on my eyes for it to work properly. So, the next day when I went to wash my face I tried it, and all it did was smear it all over the place :( Seriously, my whole eye area was black with mascara smeary-ness. Still determined to love it, I thought that maybe that was how it was supposed to work and just tried to remove it from my face with a clean cotton ball with more remover... all that did was smear it all over my cheeks :( I was thoroughly depressed lol.  And despite it plainly saying "Oil Free" on the bottle, it made my face feel very greasy. I will just stick with my wipes for now until I find another brand that doesn't leave vegetable oil smears all over me... I am still trying to think of something else to do with it instead of just throwing it away, but nothing has come to mind yet... But on a more happier note, most of the other products I have tried so far were awesome :) Happy New Year everyone! <3 Rebecca

Review: Rimmel 25 Hour Foundation

When I ran out of my Revlon Color Stay foundation, I decided I wanted to try something new. As I was perusing the aisles, I saw the Rimmel 25 hour... I figured that it probably didn't actually last 25 hours, and that was just their quirky way of saying that it was a long-lasting foundation. I was wrong. I actually checked the label after wearing it the first time to make sure it said 25 hour and not 2-5 hours... It could just be my skin, but after about 4 hours, it was almost completely worn off. (And I figured since it was supposed to last all day, that it would be a full-coverage foundation... No idea why I concluded that, I just did... It was more of a medium-coverage... but I digress...) Granted, that first day, I didn't use a primer because I was in a hurry. So, the next day I did. It lasted a bit longer, about 7-8 hours, which is better than 4, but still nowhere near 25 hours. I will finish it off, because I'm cheap like that. lol. But when it is time to repurchase, I will be going back to either Revlon Color Stay or Maybelline Super Stay. I'm not saying that it won't work for everyone, but for me (combination skin, needs full coverage) it did not.

Rite Aid **Haul**

Yesterday started out as a seemingly normal day... Me and my sister were going grocery shopping, and I decided that I needed a new pair of pants so we went to a few clothing stores. Of course I didn't find any pants, because it is very hard for me to find pants because I have no hips, but i digress... On our way to Wal-Mart, we passed Rite Aid... my sister says, "Is there anything in Rite Aid that I would like?" me, "Yeah, they have makeup and stuff. Wanna go in?"... So we go in Rite Aid... I very rarely go in there unless there is something specific I need. I have nothing against it, I just usually go to Wal-Mart or Walgreens. When we got in, she went wandering off somewhere and I went to the makeup. I was going to look at the Wet-n-Wild products since that is really the only place around here that you can get them (Walgreens has some, but not as big of a selection...). When I got over there I noticed that they had everything 40% off. I was super excited because it is already fairly cheap, and I wanted to try a few different things (I haven't used anything from them since I was like 7 years old and that was the only makeup my mother would let me buy because it was the cheapest. I just remember a lot of blue eyeshadow and neon pink lipstick, and that it wasn't very awesome. So that's what I have thought about it for the past years. I didn't even know they still made it until I stumbled upon it in Walgreens one day. Then I saw where a lot of bloggers and youtubers were using it, so I figured it must be a lot better than it was when I was 7, so I have been meaning to give it another shot... anyways, back to the story...) After I loaded up a basket with all the things I felt like I needed to try, I was ready to leave. Then my sister comes up to me with some covergirl lipgloss and said that it was 75% off... I went crazy... There was so much stuff on clearance! And there was a lot more stuff on the 40% off sale! My basket was getting very full, especially when you consider the 2 jumbo bags of cotton balls that were buy one get one free... Then I noticed on one of the 40% off tags, that it said "with your welness+ card". I did not have a card. At this point, I was highly upset and was starting to put the unnecessary items back on the shelves. Then I hear my sister (3 aisles over...) "Becca, the card is freeeeee!!!!!" lol. So I start gathering up my unnecessary items, and head to the register to check out and apply for a card...

 

That's right! I spent $37 and saved $38! I mentioned this to anyone I passed yesterday... I was sooo excited! lol. So, I recommend everyone going to Rite Aid, getting a card, and taking advantage of this sale. Pronto. Now, onto the actual haul.....

 This is everything....

 This is all the Wet N Wild stuff....

This is everything that wasn't Wet N Wild....

~Wet N Wild~
Eye Makeup Remover
Lip Balm in Tahiti Punch
Mega Slick lipgloss in Cotton Candy
Blush in Heather Silk
Natural Blend Pressed Powder in Bare
Mega Liner (liquid) in Black/Noir
Mega Eyes Gel Liner in Black/Noir
Perfect Pair Eye Wand in 110 (I had already taken the plastic off before I looked to see what the actual name of it was... It is a silver eyeshadow pencil on one side, and a black pencil liner on the other...)
Wild Shine Nail Color in Dreamy Poppy and Sparked.


~CoverGirl~
TruBlend MicroMinerals Finishing Veil
WetSlicks in Freedom Of Peach and SlapHappy (they are both mostly sheer, but slaphappy is more pink... and they have a nice mint flavor :)


~Maybelline~
SuperStay foundation in Sand Beige (I think it is going to be too pale :(
Expert Wear Eyeshadow Quad in Chai Latte



I haven't really gotten a chance to try everything out, but I played around with most of it... So far, the only thing I don't really like is the WnW eye makeup remover. It just kinda smeared everything all over my face, and only removed like half of it :( I will probably just stick to my Neutrogena wipes... Once I have a chance to try everything I will post reviews :) Hope everyone has an awesome day :)
