Tag Tuesday: I'm A Beauty Blogger, Get Me Out Of Here! Part 2

Again guys, welcome to another Tag Tuesday!

Time to get started!

1) Firstly congratulations! You won last week’s bush tucker trial and your reward is a makeover from a professional make-up artist. What look would you choose and why?

I would probably go for a simple neutral look since it will probably be really hot on the island.

2) It’s time to wash – ok so it’s not in a luxury shower or a bath but you do get a choice of one soap/shower gel to use. What would you choose and why?

I would choose the Shea Moisture Coconut and Hibiscus Body Wash because it could make any watering hole smell like a luxury shower!

3) Today is the arrival of a new camp mate, yay! You get to decide, it can be anyone this time. Who will you choose and why?

I would choose Channing Tatum because I'm sure I would need some protection on the island and also he would be really nice to look at shirtless (: 

4) It can get a little boring in the jungle and you’re feeling sluggish. What one fitness exercise would you do?

I would do Zumba, I'm not sure if that is considered a fitness exercise though.

5) How would you create your own jungle fashion style?

I would have to utilize vines because they would be the most versatile.

6) What is your favourite Australian product and why?

I don't think I have tried any Australian products.

7) Good news, the camp has won the treasure chest hunt! In need of something sweet, each camp mate wins their own cupcake. What would yours be?

Mine would be a lemon cupcake with chocolate frosting.

8) Challenge – bush tucker trial number 2, ‘the jungle hair & beauty salon’. You’re sitting under a vintage hair dryer and instead of hot air being blasted out you are greeted by 10,000 creepy crawlies. Which creepy crawlies would you detest the most and which ones wouldn’t you mind?

I would detest beetles and spiders the most but I would not mind worms that much.

Well guys that is it for part 2 of this tag.

What are you guys thinking about this tag so far? Let me know in the comments below!

Be safe and I'll see you in my next post!

REVIEW: Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie

Hello beauties! I am back with another post and this is going to be a review on a product that I have loved for a while now. 

It's the Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie. 

So let's get started!

One thing I really like about this product is the smell. I've never actually smelled hibiscus but when you mix it with a little coconut and Shea Butter it as quite pleasing to the nose. It is not over powering but it is definitely not a light smell. 

Next is the consistency. This product is very thick. In fact I was a little worried about trying it for the first time because I was afraid it would weigh my hair down and make it look oily. However, despite the thickness it does very well with my hair. I do find myself washing my hair twice a week instead if just once when I use it though. 

Since I have naturally curly hair I have to be careful of the products i use in my hair because there are certain ingredients that will dry out my hair. This product, along with the rest of the Shea Moisture line, does not have these ingredients which I really love.

Finally, my results. I love using this product as a moisturizer most of the time but sometimes I will use it as a styler to do pin curls or Bantu knots. I like that it moisturizes and defines my curls without weighing my hair down. 

The only thing that I so not like about this product is the price. It was around $11 the last time that I bought it. Even though it is a bit pricey I would say that it's worth it if you have dry hair like mine. 

Overall I really love this product and whenever I can afford to I will certainly repurchase it. 

I bought the Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie at Target. 

Well guys that is it for this post!

Have you tried this product? What did you think? Let me know in the comments!

Be safe and I will see you in my next post!

November Favs! (:

Hello beauty lovers I am back with another post and this is going to be my November Favorites. I do not have a lot of favorites this month because I did not try a lot of things but the ones that I did try and that I really enjoyed I am going to show you in this post!

So let's get started!

First is this Maybelline Fit Me Stick Foundation and I have the shade 340. The reason I love this foundation so much is because it's really quick and simple and easy to apply and it's really a timesaver in the morning when I am scrambling to get ready for school.

Also just like the liquid and powder versions of this foundation it matches my skintone extremely well. If you want to see my review on the liquid and powder foundation click here.

Next on my favorites is the Maybelline Makeup Removing Lotion and the reason I wanted to try this is because I do not think that my skin gets fully clean if I just cleanse it. I feel like I have to remove my makeup first and then cleanse my skin for it to get really clean. So I use this to remove my makeup before cleansing my face and I really like it because all I have to do is take a small amount of it, rub it on my palms, rub it on my face and then wipe it off with a napkin and it's really a timesaver.

The next two products on my favs are very closely related. The Arganesse Hair Treatment and the Organix Argan Oil Hair Treatment and the reason that I have these two products on my favorites is because Argan oil has become one of my favorite oils to use on my hair.

Argan oil is great for taming frizz and adding shine to my hair. Also it is very lightweight and it doesn't make my greasy or weigh it down at all.

They're both amazing products and I recommend them both for whoever wants to try Argan oil!

Another one of my favorite products for the month of November is the Shea Moisture Style Curl Milk and I started using this because I wanted a product that was going to define my curls and keep them lasting longer so I wouldn't have to keep redoing my hair every night. And I was really pleased with this product because not only did it moisturize my hair but it also elongated and defined my curls which I really love.

Another product that I have been using from my hair in the month of November is the Organix Moroccan Argan Oil Intensive Moisture Treatment and actually have not been using this as a deep conditioner I've only been using it has a leave in conditioner for my hair after I use the Organix Argan Oil Hair Treatment and the reason that I don't use it as a deep conditioner is because I already use the Shea Moisture Deep Treatment Mask and I just feel like my hair needs a little bit more moisture throughout the week and it works great as a leave in as well.

I do not wash it out and it does not leave my hair sticky or crunchy or anything like that so I'm probably gonna continue using as a leave in and stick with my Shea Moisture Treatment Mask for my deep conditioner. 

Well guys that is it for this post! (:

This week is focusing on my favorite personal care products (: so let's get started!

Hair!

Shampoo!

I have been using this shampoo for about a year now and I am so in love with it. When I first started using it I was not sure what the whole natural thing was about but I am really happy that I found this line because it has helped my hair so much and it smells amazing! Click here to see my full review (:

Conditioner

So I just started using this conditioner because I had heard really great reviews on it so I decided to give it a try. And I really love this conditioner. It makes my hair really soft and it moisturizes it really well. Also since my hair is colored it keeps the color from fading.

Styling Product

I started using this product a few weeks ago and really love it. It moisturizes and sets my curls but it also keeps them from shrinking. Another thing is that it does not weigh my hair down. Also because it is so thick I do not have to redo my hair ever single day I can just apply a good amount one day and then the next few days I just add water to activate the product (:

Hair Mask

This is my favorite hair mask in the whole world (: I love the way it makes my hair feel and look after I use it. It is really thick and the scent is really great. I usually use this on my hair twice a week in order to keep my curls moisturized. If you want to see my full review on this product click here! Also click here to see how I apply the treatment to my hair!

Dry Shampoo

So my best friend in the whole world works at on of Paul Mitchell's salons and he is so amazing that he got me this for my birthday. I have used it ever since because I really feel like it get the roots of my hair clean for those in between wash days since I only wash my hair once or twice a week. All I do is spray it on my roots and fluff my hair and voila! (:

Skin Care! (Non-Facial)

Body Wash

This is my favorite body wash of all time! I got a sample of it in my iFabbo goodie bag an I loved it so much that I went and bought the full size once I ran out. The smell is so wonderful, it has coconut in it so it is going to be amazing anyway, and it gets my body clean without making it feel dry and tight (: Plus it has no sulfates or parabens! It does not get any better than that! (:

Body Scrub

So the body scrub that I use is actually a DIY that I make myself (: You can check out the recipe for that here (: I like using this scrub because it is all natural and I know there are no chemicals added and no processing involved (: plus it makes my skin feel really good.

Body Lotion

I started using this lotion about 6 months ago and I have been using it ever since. This lotion has a really great smell, it reminds me of flowers. The best thing about it, besides the price which is a startling $6.49 at Target, is that it is thick and it really moisturizes my skin. 

Well guys that is it for this post!
