Hello, little ball of goodness. The first time I met an Evolution Of Smooth Lip Balm it was beckoning to me from an end-cap in my neighborhood drugstore. The cute and colorful spheres grabbed my attention and the product description sealed the deal. The 95% organic, 100% natural lippie contains vitamin E, shea butter and jojoba oil and is free of parabens, petrolatum, phthalates and gluten.
EOS Lip Balm comes in great flavors with brightly colored packaging to match. Pick from summer fruit, lemon drop SPF 15, strawberry sorbet, honeysuckle honeydew, medicated tangerine (boosted with zinc and vitamins) and sweet mint. EOS is easy to find at the bottom of a bag and easy to apply.
BEAUTY IN THE BOX – CLAIROL NATURAL INSTINCTS VIBRANT

Box dye has long been the purview of experimenting teens or a last-ditch effort for women on a shoestring budget. No more! In recent months I have come across box dye testimonials from good-hair icon Courtney Cox (a Clairol Natural Instincts Brass-Free For Brunettes devotee) and beauty scion Evelyn Lauder (the bajillionaire told Harper’s Bazaar that every 10 days she mixes four different boxes of Clairol dye to achieve the perfect shade). Clairol in a box good enough for them? Good enough for me too. I chose Clairol Natural Instincts Vibrant #4 Dark Brown because of its promise of 100% gray coverage. While I have less than 25% gray, against my naturally dark hair those little suckers tend to shoot out white light from across the room.

Hair Help With Tresemme Fresh Start Dry Shampoo
PRODUCT: Tresemme Fresh Start Dry Shampoo
I've probably tried every dry shampoo out there, from fancy brands like Bumble and Bumble and Rene Furterer to 70s drugstore relic Psssst! I'll do anything to extend the lifespan of a blowout, and dry shampoo has saved me on more than one occasion when I needed a shampoo but didn't have time to wash and style my hair. I spotted Tresemme Fresh Start Dry Shampoo on a recent drugstore run. First thought: ooh, another dry shampoo. Second thought: at around $5 a can, it's worth a try.
I am not prone to hyperbole, so believe me when I say that this product is phenomenal. It's cheap, the packaging is beautiful, it is far and away the best-smelling dry shampoo on the market and it works better than any other. Mineral clay absorbs excess oil while citrus extracts neutralize odor. The result is oil-free hair with incredible volume. I am in love.
