Review: Benefit Roller Lash



Review: Benefit Roller Lash Mascara




Review:
I have naturally very straight and short 
eyelashes so I always have used quite a bit of mascara. 
My eyelashes don't hold a curl very well so after hearing about the Benefit Roller Lash, 
I decided to try it out. I do really like this mascara it doesn't smudge and it does help my lashes hold a curl. I can finally see my lashes above my eyeliner. Benefit is one
of my favorite high-end makeup brands. The smaller brush is quite refreshing since almost every mascara these days have a large mascara brushes.

Final Thoughts: I do really like the mascara. It's really black and it does hold a curl.
The smaller blush makes it easier to not get mascara on your eyelid. I like layering
this mascara with the benefit they're real mascara. Layering the two actually
make my mascara really, really black and my eyelashes really long.

Review: Not Your Mother's Way to Grow Long and Strong



Review: Not Your Mother's Way to Grow Long and Strong Strong Shampoo, Conditioner,
and Leave-in Conditioner

Shampoo & Conditioner:

I finally got my hand on this Shampoo and Conditioner.
In the 1st few weeks I that I started using it, I loved it. It made my hair so, so very
soft. But after a while, my hair started to get used to it. It is very moisturizing.   
   So my advice is to switch up using this set with another one, 
so your hair doesn't get used to it. It smell like Starburst and candy.

I love it but my personal favorite is the Shampoo.
Totally give it a try.


Leave-in Conditioner: 
I used this Leaven-in Condition mostly as a detangler.
It works well as a leaven-in and a detangler.  I really do like this Product.
The only Problem I have with this product is that the spray nossel,
sprays the product in a straight line and not a mist.

This is the only flaw with this product. It smells amazing and
if you want to try this product I recommend moving the product into another
spray bottle.

Final Thoughts:
Go and give this a go. I really loved it and I'd totally get it again.

A Very Late New Year's Resolutions

                     





A Very,Very Late New Year's Resolutions.
My Apologies.
1.) Be the 1st One out the Door
One of my Worst Flaws, I'm always the last one out the door.
Even though I'm the most prepared, its still impolite to keep people
waiting.

2.) Sleep is GoldenI am a Morning Person and a Night owl combined.
Sleeping has not a priority in the last few years & I would like to
change that.

3.) Take better Care of Myself
Hygienic Wise and Mentally.
I want to stop the Stress Train and I want to take better
care of my Skin and my body.

4.) Be Healthy

I want to Workout more and be more fit.
I would like to tone up and loose a few lbs. I want to
eat more vegetable and more healthy food. What you put in the inside,
shows up on the outside and this body is going to be with me for
the rest of my life.


5.) Work Harder
I want to putt more time and more effort into both this blog, 
my schoolwork, and everything I do.
I want to be extremely proud of my work.

6.) Don't give two Flying Stone
In other words, Don't give two fu*king Sh*ts about
what other people think and care about me.  It unhealthy
and I want to stop. I want to stop caring about other people
and more about myself.

7.) The More the Better(Hair Version)
My hair is pretty long but it has been this length for a
while and I would like to have a change but not with a haircut.
I am also going to try to grow longer eyelashes and thicker brows.

8.) Read more
I was the biggest reader. I used to read a new book
every week but within the last year or so I've stopped. I would like
to start again. I'm trying for at least 2 a month this year.

9.) Invest in Myself
I am a huge cheap-o and I think that is a good quality.
But I also think it's good to splurge every now and then.
I work hard, it's okay to. If I like it, I can buy it.
No matter the coast.

10.) Experiment and Explore
I want experiment more with my style, my makeup, hair,
and everything else. I want to try new things and put myself out there.
I want to travel and see different places and cultures. 


What are/were your resolution?

Review: Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Moist



Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Deep Conditioner: Moist Version

Review: I was in need of a new deep conditioner and I had run out of my Macadamia Deep Repair Mask and I loved that deep conditioner. My hair's in a really weird state at the moment. Its damaged from heat styling but it's not overly damaged. I really loved this conditioner. It's very moisturizing and very good for it's price. I'm already on my 2nd bottle. It makes my hair very soft and it feels so soft when I get right out of the shower. The way the product is packaged, it makes it super convenient and easy to squeeze out. I did hear it had wax in it and all it does is coat the hair and not repair it. Though, I still like the product and it is worth the 2 or 3 dollars.

Verdict: Extremely good for it value. Packaging is convenient and easy. Smells nice. It may not completely repair you hair, but will help. I think this can even be used everyday for thicker hair. Give it a try and see if it's worth you while.

Sorry, for the lack of post, lately. School has been eating me alive. I'm trying my best.
Till' next time, Bye.

How to Good Grades + Get through Finals

OB review


1.
Studying

what you're avoiding right now
you are avoiding studying right

True.

Getting good grades is hard when your exhausted from School and still have a Social Life. Right? I get it. Here are a few trick I learned so far from a Straight A Student.
  • Don't Procrastinate!
                               Don't Do it! Your going to regret it so much when rushing and staying up late trying to finish (or even start). It really does show in work. Just do it even if you don't understand, because you want at least some points and not just a zero.
  • Rewrite all of the Material
                                This tip really good for test or Finals not so much for homework(but it could be). All you have to do, a day or two before the test rewrite all of the material you learned. Its a lot more affective than just starring at the paper.
  • Build a Good Foundation
                                 Make sure you do all of your homework, all the extra credit, and turn in all missing assignments even if you'll get a zero. It shows the teacher your really trying. (They might even bump you up a little bit) Make sure to get a few percentage points above the goal grade you wants, so even if you do badly on the final your chances of getting a grade you don't won't. Basically, If you want at least a 80 in the class don't walk into the final with a 76 but rather with a 83 or 84. If you need some help calculating what you need here's a grade calculator: Final Grade Calculator
  • Study Space is Huge
                                 Where you study is a huge factor, especially with finals. Make sure you have no distraction and that your comfortable. And apparently background noise is actually really good and Starbucks apparently has just the right amount of background noise, and you can get a really good Starbucks while your there. But if can't get to Starbucks, play some Mozart music. It can apparently stimulate your brain cells. 
  • Improve the way you Study
                                  Here are few simple ways to just improve your studying really quickly. Study the material right before you go to sleep, make sure its the last thing you see before you go asleep. Take frequent  Breaks. Be sure to quiz yourself. Read everything out loud and in your mind. Eat lots of Omega-3's. Just experiment and see what works for you.



So here are a few tips I've learned, but make sure to remember that School doesn't test how smart you are but rather just your meomory. And youth doesn't have a age, so remember your still young and allowed to slack off and have some fun. So good luck and study hard.

Review: Tresemme Platinum Strength Deep Conditioning Treatment

Review: Tresemme Platinum Strength Deep Conditioning Treatment


So, I have a huge problem. I always run out of conditioner faster than Shampoo. I have about 3 shampoos almost empty in my shower because I don't like using different shampoos and conditioners together. So since I was using the Tresemme Platinum Strength Shampoo and Conditioner, I just picked up the Tresemme Platinum Strength Shampoo and Conditioner.

I've been using this product for about 1 month now as my everyday conditioner. I know it sounds weird but I usually only wash my hair 1 or twice a week because if I do wash every single day my hair will just dry out.  That and my hair doesn't get oily too fast.

I really do like this product. It's affordable (around $4-5) and easy to get your hands on (found it at Target). It is quite moisturizing and it does make my hair really soft. I would definitely repurchase. But it is not the best but still pretty good. It doesn't make my holy grail list but I would definitely repurchase because it works but it's not life changing.

So I'd say give a chance, it pretty nice product. It works but it doesn't work wonders. I'd give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.

P.S- Sorry, I was gone for so long! School's been killing me.

Review: Garnier Fructis Marvelous Oil Deep Nourish 5-Action Hair Elixir

Review: Garnier Fructis Marvelous Oil: Deep Nouris


A few Weeks ago, I purchased the Garnier Fructis Marvelous in the Deep Nourish Venison. 
(I am so sick of writing that name, it is seriously so long.)
It says it is A 5-action hair Elixir that contains Capuacu & Brazil nut Oil.  It has other ingredients on the back that may not be so great for your hair. It nourishes and helps repair dry, damaged hair.  

And you can use it for 5 things:

1.) Preshampoo Treatment
You can Apply to wet or dry hair before Shampooing to prime hair for gentle cleaning
2.) Conditioner Booster
Add 1 or 2 droops to conditioner to improve detangling
3.) Blow-Dry Accelerator
 Apply to Damp Hair to dry hair Faster
4.) Ends Finisher
Apply to Dry or Damp hair ends to smooth split ends and tame fly aways
5.) Overnight Leave-in
Work into wet or dry hair, leave in over-night to restore softness

Review: 
This is okay. It did dry my hair a little bit if I used a little too much at 1 times.
This defiantly wasn't made for really thick course hair like me.
It smells nice and it leaves a slight residue on your hands and on your hair.
I mostly just use it as a Ends Finisher it makes my hair a little bit more shinier but it doesn't restore my hair or make it softer. I don't think I will Repurchase this, but I will use it up because it isn't horrific.
It may be better for really thin hair but if you have really damaged hair I would try something else.

Final Thoughts: Okay, but not for restoring Hair.
