Natural Hair Products: My favorite Shampoo & Conditioners

During my transition, I wanted to use natural products on my hair to help maintain health and growth.  I knew there were plenty of products on the market to choose from and I knew that some of these products would work for me and some wouldn't work at all. I tried a few products and stopped at two that I have grown to absolutely love. I started using Alba Botanica  and later on  Organix . I use mostly Ogx and switch to Alba to use one in particular product if I chose. I wash my hair once a week using the Ogx Coconut water Shampoo & Conditioner. sometimes I like to use Alba's Hawaiian Coconut Milk Conditioner. I would massage it in for about 5 minutes and let it sit for about 5 minutes more before I rinse. the reason why I do this is because Alba's Coconut Milk Conditioner isn't light based like Ogx's Coconut Water Conditioner.

Lip Stain Galore!

  Click here for more lipstains by Sephora. Currently enjoying the lipstain trend. here are a couple that I have now. three of the smooch proof lipstains by NYC and two lipstains by Sephora.  The difference between the two are: The NYC smooch proof lipstains are a pigmented blend that stains your lips making them look naturally pigmented. unlike the Sephora lipstains which are a cream lipstain with a glossy finish.  In the two photos I am wearing Sephora's rouge veloute.

Maybelline's #betterskinchallenge

Here is my last post on Maybelline's  #betterskinchallenge   Click the link below for more. Click Here! Trying out Maybelline's better skin foundation has been a great experience. I like to use a little coverup when I go out, especially If i'll be at a certain place for a long period of time. I work five days a week and I always wear a little foundation and my main problem was finding a foundation that would last for up to 5 hours.  Influenster sent me a full product to test the better skin foundation. the foundation color matches my skin tone perfectly. I am using coconut 95. the foundation goes on very easily as it is a light based foundation. I have very oily skin so there was a little shine on my skin after about 2 to 3 hours of wearing it but the foundation did not become super oil. the foundation still kept its density and clean finish.
