Garnier Fructis Hydra Recharge Shampoo and Conditioner Review

Hi Lovelies,
I have been on a phase of trying new hair products here lately. I picked up a bottle of Garnier Fructis Hydra Recharge shampoo and Conditioner at Target for $2.99 a bottle.

My experience-
Shampoo Suds very well with wet hair and goes a long ways with a small amount. I love the encapsulated beads in the shampoo they smell really sweet like fruit, it does have Super fruits of goji berry, passion fruit and kiwi.
Both the conditioner and shampoo rinses out really well.I could tell a differences in my hairs smoothness before I even dried it. After drying my hair was silkier,silkier,and less flyways then normal. After three days of use I noticed my hair was slightly stronger and a lot more manageable.

Would I purchase this again?
Defiantly would purchase it again, I also would like to try the other two hydra recharge products they offer Hydra Recharge 1-Minute Moisture-Plenish and Hydra Recharge Moisture-Whip Leave-In

If you have tried any of these products let me know in the comments what you thought of them.
Until next time,
XOXO Amy-Beth

L'oreal Advanced Hair Care Color Vibrancy Shampoo

Who doesn't love run through your finger soft hair? Um everyone does duh! I purchased L' Oreal new advanced Care Hair Shampoo and conditioner with high hopes that it would do what it says....I was Defiantly not let down. within the first wash and condition I noticed my once dry,frizzy,dull hair was softer,smoother and stronger.Not to mention my hair smelled fresh and clean all day long. After a week of using the product my color was more vibrant ( I purchased the color care formula with antioxidant) and hair was less frizzy and more manageable. All in all this shampoo and conditioner is more then just a pretty bottle, it holds ingredients that will take your hair to another level.

Not so nerdy knit pants

When I think knit pants I automatically think not so fashionable.That all changed recently,I came across a pair of my oh so favorite teal color knit skinny pants at Marshall for only $12!!!!They came in Small,Medium,and Large not like your typically jean size number I wear a size 3 so I got the small. The snug fit looked amazing not too tight not too lose and o.m.g so comfortable and warm.I'm not a denim lover when it comes to comfort some can be itchy and rough oh and restricting of movement!lol! Since Each Marshall store gets in different stuff,I have found some other pairs of knit skinny pants at some of my favorite stores that I'm going to purchase! Here they are!

At Macy's for $ 74

Love this color exactly like the one's I purchased at Marshall's
These are at Wetseal for only $24
The pic below is the pants I purchased at Marshall's

New Coat of Paint

 This pink and white nightstand needed a new coat of paint.

Supplies Used:

• 1 inch paint brush

• Valspar paint in Elegant Silk equally mixed with Valspar paint in Sparkling Lake

• On hardware Valspar Interior paint in whit

• Electric Sander with grade 80 paper 

• Drop cloth or old newspapers
• Wet Rag

After the hardware is taken off of the drawers, sand off the old paint until you can see the wood. Then clean off all the saw dust I like to take an old rag that is wet to get off all the dust particles.

 The paint adhere to the wood so I didn't need a primer on this piece of furniture. When using a primer I like to use Valspar Primers then my paint.

 After the paint was fully dry I roughed the corners with grade 80 sandpaper by hand where normal wear would show to give it that vintage shabby look.I think the finish piece with the white hardware turned out great! What do you guys think?

Stay tuned for my next piece I'm redoing as I type this one!

Lipstick crop top $12.80

Avocado Hair Products

I love avocado for my hair and skin.Avocado is rich in vitamin E and moisturizing oils that your body can easily absorb. I also find it is great for dry over processed hair!

At first I thought a guacamole hair mask might be a little strange! I tried it and my hair loved it so here is the recipe if you guys want to try it out!! P.S You don't need tortilla chips! :)

Guacamole Hair Mask 

1 avocado mashed just like your making guacamole mix in 1 egg yolk and a tablespoon of olive oil.

Massage into your damp hair and leave on for about 15 minutes. Then,rinse,shampoo,and condition your hair!

Finished results-Soft,silky,hydrated hair!

Here is some products that already have avocado in them,if you don't feel comfortable with the whole guacamole thing!

Garnier Nutrisse Color Foam Review

My hair looks so frizzy there! LOL

When my roots started showing,I wasn't sure what I was going to do.The last time I went to my Hair Salon to get a cut,color,and,shampoo I ended up coming out with poodle bangs and such blonde hair it looked white. I really don't know what my hair dresser was thinking that day. :)

So this time I decided to tackle my roots myself! I purchased the new Garnier color foam in #9 Light blonde. I wanted to go darker then the super blonde I had before but didn't want to jump up to far on the hair color chart for my first time using The Color foam.

Garnier Nutrisse Nourishing Color Foam Haircolor:

• Rich, radiant, permanent color in an easy, stress-free application
• Creamy foam saturates each strand to evenly deposit rich, radiant color from root to tip
• Up to 100% gray coverage
• Avocado, olive and shea oil conditioner nourishes to protect against dryness, while locking in your radiant color and moisture
• Leaves hair silky, soft and healthy looking
• Easy-to-use pump dispenses a non-drip, creamy foam that smells great and lathers in like a shampoo
• What's inside: Liquid-to-foam developer; liquid-to-foam colorant; nourishing avocado, olive and shea oil conditioner; easy-to-use foaming pump; instruction sheet; easy-fit, PVC-free gloves

I really like the color it turned out,it's maybe two shades darker then the blonde I had before.

The foam makes it really easy to apply by yourself and it is not messy at all.

The Conditioner that is comes with is wonderful,smells great and leaves my hair soft,hydrated,and silky.

I wish they would just sell the conditioner by it self and for $7.99 I saved a lot of money from not having to go to the salon. Maybe next time I will go try the next color in Golden blonde!

Review Rant

Usually I don't do this sort of post but today I felt like I really wanted to get this out.I was recently contacted by a company to review a couple of their products.I was so excited to be able to try out some new beauty items and let my followers/subscribers know if they are worth buying.I had seen a lot of YouTube Video reviews on these products,and nothing but good things said about them.Needless to say when I received more information from the company I was told that I had to "say positive things" about their products in my videos/post.As soon as I found this out I denied the offer of course.

NecklaceOrganization/Storage Tip!

As you can see I have quite a lot of Necklaces. After many different ways of  storing them I have found this is the best way to keep them untangled and easy to find!

Supplies:
-Any Size Cork board
-Your choice of Fabric (mine was of course zebra)
-Paint ( I used pink interior paint)
-Small Nails or Push pins
-Staples and Stapler

To spice up the cork board I painted the wood frame first.After it was dry, I stapled my fabric around the cork board,putting the staples 3 inches apart.Also remember to buy the fabric the same width and length as your board. After that is done figure out where you want your necklaces to hang on the board and push in the pins or nails (they both will go easily in the board). Hang or prop up your cork board in desired location and that's it you are ready to hang those necklaces! I like to color coordinate mine makes them easier to find when I'm in a rush!

Hope you guys enjoyed this creative organization tip!

NOTD- Jaded

I have an obsession with mint colored nail polishes and came across the Revlon Top Speed polish in Jaded at Target. I love how it dries fast,so you are less likely to get a dreaded smudge.The color payoff is pretty pale so I did have to apply two coats to get this look.All and all I would purchase this color again and for drugstore Revlon makes great polish! :)
