WEN's Fall Apple Spice Cleansing Conditioner & Replenishing Treatment Mist

This beauty haul is of WEN by Chaz Dean Fall Apple Spice Cleansing Conditioner & Replenishing Treatment Mist.



Fall Apple Spice Cleansing Conditioner is Chaz Dean's newest addition to the seasonal collection.  With familiar scents of fall, apple, cinnamon, nutmeg, and maple syrup.

Fall Apple Spice Cleansing Conditioner is sodium lauryl sulfate-free. Eliminating the use of stripping agents, detergents, and harsh chemicals, this Cleansing Conditioner will keep your hair bouncy, shiny, hydrated, and healthy-looking.  This hydrating Cleansing Conditioner is universal for all hair types, textures, and lengths.

I will have a video and blog soon on how I apply my WEN products in detail.  I apply the WEN Cleansing Conditioner to four sections of my hair, the crown, nape, the ends of my hair on the left, and the ends of my hair on the right.  Since my hair is past my shoulders, I use a minimum of 20 pumps.
32-oz Fall Apple Spice Cleansing Conditioner



You can find WEN Fall Apple Spice Cleansing Conditioner here:

The WEN by Chaz Dean Fall Apple Spice Replenishing Treatment Mist gives the hair, body, and face an instant pick-me-up with its rejuvenating and moisturizing properties.  It refreshes hair between cleansings and can also be used as a lightweight formulation in place of or mixed with your leave-in conditioner for volume and body.   It also helps reduce frizzy, dry hair and gives it extra shine.

WEN's Fall Apple Spice Replenishing Treatment Mist should be the go-to product for anyone looking for a universal, hydrating treatment.  Its blend of argan oil, botanicals and extracts will nourish your hair & skin.  It can be used on the face to set your makeup as well.

6-oz Fall Apple Spice Replenishing Treatment Mist

Better Than Sex Too Faced Mascara Review

Too Faced smudge-proof, all day wear mascara is so amazing some say its Better Than Sex, diamonds, and chocolate... But, I guess it would depend on who you ask.  Me I would say it is pretty darn close.
 
 











Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara brush design is a hourglass shape. It has a bust-waist-hip ratio designed after an iconic silver screen Blonde Bombshell. The shape of the brush is perfect to separate, coat and curl your lashes.
 
 Not only does this carbon black, collagen-fueled formula mascara define & lengthen it nourishes, thickens and locks curls in place with Acacia Senegal Tree Extract.
 
This is probably the best mascara I used for volume and separating my lashes without getting clumps. It gives a dramatic eye effect close to wearing false eye lashes. I didn't notice much of a difference in the length on my lashes. But if you are looking for life changing, voluming mascara, this is the one for you.
 
Below is a picture of my lashes. One in pure lashgasm, one without.

SUN SENSE FOR SUMMER

With Summer around the corner don't forget to brush up on some sun sense......

Although most of us love when our skin has a tan or a glow, it isn't necessarily the best for our skin.  When you are outside you need protection from UVB and UVA rays. UVA-the most damaging, leading to premature aging ( oh no!!) UVB-which cause sunburn (ouch!).

Even though many foundations contain sunscreen, it isn't sufficient enough to protect the skin for extended periods out in the sun.  Even when it's cloudy, 80% of the sun's UV rays break through.  So even if you work at a desk all day, you should have SPF in your skincare regime.

At least a SPF 15 should be used everyday.  A sun protection factor (SPF) 15 is minimum for the face, neck and decolletage but I would recommend a SPF 25 or 30.  SPF 15 means your skin can be in sunlight 15 times its normal limit.

Even for your lips I would advise a lip balm with SPF because many sunblocks for your lips contain zinc and petroleum which can be drying. And who wants dry cracked lips?

In the summer weather heavy foundation is a mistake because they slide and crease.  So, if you use liquid foundation use it only where needed.  But, summer calls for a sheer, natural finish so try tinted moisturizers, BB & CC Creams, and mineral foundation. 


Below are some beauty products for your summer sense:
