Ginger Locks

Hello all my lovelies! Sorry for the lack of posting, life just seems to be a tad crazy at the moment. So I've been a busy bee working everything out and starting new chapters in my life :)

Today I wanted to do a post on all the hair products that I absolutely adore. I get asked alot about my hair and what I use in it. But, by far the question that I get asked the most is, "Is that your natural hair color?"

Yes, yes it is kidlets. #gingerforlife

My hair, I would classify, as a darker strawberry blonde. It used to be a lot more vibrat when I was younger and as I aged the pigment has lightened up. I have blonde, brown, auburn and red strands in my hair, which is probably why I get asked if it is natural. In the summer it lightens alot, and the blonde will stick out. Not to mention that I have actual thick sections of my hair that are straight blonde.

In texture, my hair is thick and mildly frizzy with a natural beachy wave. I do straighten it about 98% of the time just because it is more manageable this way.

As per products, I've tried many on the market but these would have to be what really keep my hair soft and manageable.

SHAMPOO/CONDITIONER

Now I am always changing my shampoo and conditioner just because my hair tends to get used to these kind of products quickly. At the moment I'm using the Redken All Soft Shampoo/Conditioner. This stuff makes my hair unbelievably soft, even though I'm getting to the end of these bottles it doesn't seem that my hair is getting used to the formula.


DEEP CONDITIONING

For deep conditioners I rotate between Macadamia Deep Repair Mask, and the Aveda Dry Remedy. Both of these are phemonal and do the job. I do prefer the Macadamia one a tad bit better, because not only is it more affordable, but I feel that it makes my hair stay soft and moisturized for the few days between washes. I enjoy that both these products are extremely thick in consistency and you can feel the difference in the texture of your hair right as you wash them out.

REVIEW: Anastasia Beverly Hills Contour Palette

Hello lovelies!

So I cannot contain my excitement that I finally have been able to get my hands on this palette! I have legit been waiting since it came out, checking the website frequently, just to see its always sold out. So a few days ago while casually looking at instagram, I saw someone post how it was at sephora. Now my heart pretty much dropped and I raced on over to my sephora, and yup! It was there!

So I decided it would be helpful to do a bit of a review and explanation of this palette for any of you looking to get it. 



I was critical that maybe this was just another fan fad, meaning that everyone is getting it, just because EVERYONE is getting it. 

I was defiantly mistaken though, the consistency and pigmentation of these colors are fantastic.
