This powder is so amazing. I have oily skin and for years I was covering my face with so much liquid foundation due to acne. I am now 28 and my skin is completely different now and no longer need such a heavy coverage. I am always skeptical to use just a powder because I never thought I would get the coverage I needed, well I was very wrong. The first time I used this powder alone it was great, it goes on smooth, gives a wonderful light to medium coverage without looking powdery at all due to their being no talc in the products. If you want a fuller coverage you can dampen the sponge a little and add more. Throughout the day if my skin gets a little shine I can brush on a little just for touch ups and it still looks amazing and evens out my skin tone and still will not look like I have a lot of makeup on. One of my favorite powders out there. !
My name is Kristen and I started this blog because I have been a product junkie for many years. It's trial and error finding the right ones that work the best so I thought I'd lend out my opinion on some of my favorites ! Enjoy

Damage Remedy daily hair repair
I really Love this product. As an Aveda stylist every time I use this product in my clients hair I cannot stop touching and feeling the softness. With Certified organically-derived quinoa protein it strengthens the hair also acting as a heat protector with wheat protien. This gentle leave in is so light you really only need a nickle size. Women are often turned off by leave in treatments as they feel it will way their hair down, but believe me this will not way it down as long as you apply the right amount .
Anyone who has color or chemically treated hair can use this, or anyone who feels their hair is being dried out form excessive heat styling. A little bit really does go a long way. To apply add a nickle size to you palm and spread through your hands like lotion, starting in the mid section of you head comb the product through with your fingers, never apply right to the top of your head with palms facing down, continue to comb all through the hair and adding it to the ends as well, when finished take the remaining product on your hands and comb through the top of your head. Enjoy this product, it is AMAZING :)

MY 2 FAVORITE SELF TANNERS
I am a very pale girl , but I loooove the sun and this summer has been the first summer I was not super tan. About a month ago I layed in the sun 2 days in a row and by the 3rd day my skin felt like crap and I'm only 26, so I got really freaked out and have not been in the sun since. I have not tried too many self tanners but I do really like the one from dove, it does not have an odd smell like some others, it actually smells kind of pretty so that is a plus!! it also does not make you look super orange or streaky another plus!. I use the light one and I really can see a difference, I'm not gonna say it's the greatest tan in a bottle but it really does give your skin a nice glow. I just today bought the one for medium to dark skin so maybe this one will give me a bit more color!!! we'll see.
The second one I like is the Sun Source from Aveda. I find it a bit different than the dove in the sense that I really only use the sun source when I already have a bit of a tan and want to bring it out more for that it works great! the smell is a little weird but your suppose to put it on 2 hours prior to going out, so the best thing to do is shower (and this goes for any self tanner) exfoliate and as your lotion apply the tanner right after your shower and continue to get ready!! ENJOY TANNING.
