Another Goody Goody: Two-Faced Mirror

                No, it is not really called the "two-faced mirror" (lol) but I call it that because it is dual-sided. Anyway, I finally got a hand mirror and this is it!

That's it, a Goody hand mirror. I like this mirror, good quality and nice turtle shell material. The handle is a bit short, and there was a HUGE sticker that almost ruined one surface when I tried to pick it off. Ughhh...pet peeves about beauty products, can't buy anything without one. There are two sides: one that zooms x1 and one that zooms x3.

L'oreal StudioLine Crystal Wax for hair

                This L'oreal product is quite unique, I have to say, since I've never seen anything like it. It is an pearly, opalescent purple-blue formula that feels like a mix of regular Vaseline and creamy lip balm. It does give nice definition and shine once applied, which is nice, but I'm not so sure of how much it takes care of split ends. 


 The product in its jar open...below is the texture up close...and last of all, the packaged product.

Curling Irons: A Miracle in the Beauty Business

           
                   Hello again! In this post, I'd like to show a style I created with a curling iron* at hand. It takes about five to ten minutes and looks gorgeous yet it is fairly simple. Here it is modeled on me from behind:




    It was really easy; I just used the curling iron on equal sections of my hair, shook them into place, and got going! If you don't know how to use a curling iron, here are the basic steps:


        1. Group one medium-sized part of your hair together using a brush.


      2. After letting your curling iron heat up for about five minutes (plug into an outlet and switch on), clip it close to the end of that hair, keeping it plugged in.


     3. Roll the iron up the section, wrapping the hair around it as you go, until you have reached your head and have no more hair left to curl. Leave curling iron in place for a fifteen seconds, then unroll and repeat all steps on the rest of your hair.       


WARNING: After curling iron has been plugged in long enough, it will be very hot, so avoid touching it. 


          *The curling iron I used was a mini model by
 Remington, so results may not be exactly the same as shown. This kind has a clip, but there are some you just wrap your hair around.
