14 Day Hair Challenge by Sarah Tran || Review

Image
This year was not what anyone expected with the pandemic happening, but it has allowed us to spend a lot of time at home which gives us extra time to do things we wouldn't normally do.  Earlier this year I tried the "no-shampoo" method. At first it was great, but then after 2 weeks, my head was going insane! I eventually came across this 14 Day Hair Challenge by Sarah Tran. I don't remember exactly which platform I saw it on, probably Instagram, but immediately I thought I should try it. Her hair was beautifully long, and she's Asian! It also helped me decide, since the last shampoo/conditioner I had bought were both more expensive than the challenge, and it was advertised that you'd be making a shampoo at-home, which I've always wanted to try. During the "no-poo" days, I did do some apple cider vinegar and egg rinses, but nothing that left my hair feeling super great.  The 14 Day Hair Challenge was quite interesting, and not entirely what I expe...

Beauty | A few tries of 2017

Image
The booster c powder has a strong smell, and sometimes made my face feel funny. Style Nanda products I would say were nothing special. I do really like the cushion though! My favorite nail color is still the burnt orange color that I purchased last year. These were buys from earlier in March this year.

Beauty | March ULTA Haul

Image
I always get dragged into stores by their coupons. ULTA sends you 3.50 off of a $10 purchase coupon monthly and so of course I go there with intentions of just getting things I know I need and would get at Target or Walmart anyways. I purchased the Cetaphil daily facial cleanser I've been wanting to try and a peel-away clay mask. Since I've recently stopped taking birth control pills, my hormones have been reacting and I've been getting pimples all over so I thought I would focus on my face. Cetaphil daily facial cleanser. This product is very soft on the skin. I feel like it isn't doing too much for my skin though. I might just be too use to having a cleanser that is also an exfoliant so it feels like it's not doing as much as my old cleansers. I probably won't be re-purchasing this product. Freeman's Sweet Tea & Lemon Peel Away Clay Mask . I really like this product, even though the peel comes off flimsy and light so you're not really able ...

OOTD | Keeping warm (enough) in the Upper Midwest

Image
Quick snaps on this semi-sunny, semi-cloudy, and semi-chilly midwest day.  My Hair is finally growing longer! On Sunday I finally decided to go back to layers. Those are my two plants, since I'm not allowed to have animals.  All-Star Converses are always a good choice Vests keep you pretty warm in the midwest, at least until you actually NEED to wear a coat.  When you can't be cute, making ugly faces always works.  Enjoy the wonderful bi-polar days of autumn! 

Revita Locks Review | Part 1

Image
Is Revita Locks a scam? Money-wise, I would say yes it is. It says it is a free-trial with only having to pay the shipping fee for a "free" 30 day supply sample. But really, it will charge you 10-14 days later because you really signed up for an either 10 or 14 day trial of the product. It also automatically subscribes you to their monthly supply of their vitamins, which I've read is around $80. Luckily, I ran into a bunch of reviews telling me this and I was able to cancel the subscription before the 14 day trial ended, but decided to keep the product for about $28. I figured that the hassle of shipping it back was not worth it and I wanted to give it a test run anyways. This leads to the next big question which is, of course, is the product a scam in its quality? Does it really increase your chance of having longer, thicker, stronger hair? Does Revita Locks really increase hair density and shine? Well I've decided to test it out and give it a shot. The prod...
