Update: new hair and current favorites


So hello there! I haven't posted in a while because I was busy and my MacBook broke!!! It just makes a beeping noise when I turn it on so I'm going to have to get it fixed. In the meantime I'm posting from my blogger app on my iPhone. 

So anyway I wanted to share a few things I've currently been using and loving. 
1) the John Frieda color refreshing gloss for warm brunettes
This adds color to hair in between coloring, brings out the natural hues in your hair and keeps the color looking fresh 
2) Olay blemish control acne wash
I love this because not only it is for acne prone skin it has these small exfoliating grains that leave my skin more luminous. It also claims to prevent aging and diminish hyper pigmentation from acne scarring or sun damage. 
3) crest 3D white strips 
I used to use these back in the day when they would slide off my teeth and leave my sensitive teeth aching. So I haven't used them for years but now the new white strips have a sticking part that goes on the teeth so there's no sliding, and I haven't had any burning or sensitivity while using them!
4) scrunci no slip grip hair elastics 
I don't know about you but no matter if I buy the small thin elastics or the thick ones they alwayssss stretch out or break!  Plus sometimes my hair is so smooth they don't hold a bun or pony tail tight enough. So I tried these no slip elastics, made from a thick rubbery material. It feels a little like using a rubber bands in my hair but my styles really stay in place better and they claim to be virtually unbreakable. 
5) NYX matte soft matte lip cream in the shade San Paulo 
I have been searching for a wearable bright pink matte lip for a while and most are too light pink or too neon. This is more like a raspberry pink and I think it suits my tan complexion. It is drying however so I have to properly exfoliate and moisturize my lips before applying. 
6) living proof perfect hair day 5 in 1 styling treatment 
This make my hair soooo soft! It tames frizz, weather I wear my hair straight or curly. It also says it volumizes, conditions, and strengthens which I'm not too sure about. But it smells amazing!

I also just dyed my hair!!! I had some left over blonde from when I went ombré but the color just looked awful. I wanted to go back dark for fall but not black, so I got a color called mahogany brown. 
Before with blonde ends 
It looks overall a dark brown but in the sun you can see more red to it. I love it!!!
Sorry for the lapse in posts but I'm still here! Thanks for reading
