I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, I only wash my hair once a week. Mostly because I can’t be bothered and partly because washing your hair everyday is bad for you. Or whatever they say.
How do I do this? I have a team of magical garden gnomes that secretly wash my hair for me nightly. But really, I use dry shampoo. There is word on the street that your hair gets used to you not washing it all the time. I believe this word to be true.
Not only is this a picture of my hair on day 6 of not washing it, it’s also a picture of me acting. Hence the filter. But you can see my hair and how not greasy is that part looking? Right.
I instagrammed this a few weeks ago. Also day 6 hair. Day 7 looks pretty much the same but that’s usually when I wash it because, well, sometimes you need to wash it.
What is my trick? This. My other trick? Using it at night and not in the morning. Yes, you read that correctly. At night. I spray my part and then i grab about 1 1/2″ horizontal sections and spray at the root there down to both my ears. If the crown is looking a bit shiny, I’ll give it a spritz as well. Using the dry shampoo at night gives a perfect bed head look in the morning. That “oh yea, my hair is just perfectly messy, be jealous” look.
If you’re freaked out about spraying white powder into your hair, I suggest this (assuming you’re a brunette) or this. I’ve tried all three but the first one is still my favorite.
The day has arrived. I made a video tutorial of how I curl my hair. Please, try to contain your excitement. You know what I always say, better late than never.
As much as I love trying new products, I definitely hesitate to when I think I’ve found my favorite of any one thing. That could be a cleanser, a mascara or even lip balm. But a few weeks ago I ventured out of my comfort zone and scored some new great products that I knew I had to share with you.
I love High Beam by Benefit, but slowly but surely I’ve been replacing all my cosmetics with natural ones and I love this highlighter by BareMinerals. If you’re planning to use it as I do, a general highlighter, I don’t recommend using the brush for application but using your fingertip.
It was really hard for me to venture out of my current nightly routine, but this face oil by Tarte is the best I’ve tried. It’s amazing. I could not recommend it more. Could not.
Sometimes I’m lazy. Those same times I don’t feel like washing my face and these wipes don’t dry my skin and leave it squeaky clean. I love them .
I’m not a big lipstick gal, but I went out on a limb and picked up this Tarte lip tint and I’m so glad I did. I tried the one by Smashbox but the one by Tarte is so amazing. It’s hydrating and leaves my lips the perfect shade of pink! I also love that it’s more like a lip balm than gloss.
You know those people who keep their hair the same for years at a time and then freak out and demand change whether it be in the form of a cut or color? Well, if you didn’t you “do” now. I am one of those people. I’m itching for some change and I have an appointment this Saturday, so there are a few days still to decide the direction, but the three images below are all still in the running.
Obviously, the three of these are all drastic in their own way. Thick fringe, above the shoulders and a lot lighter. Oddly enough, the light ‘do is the least commitment. What do you think?
