Review: Jane Carter Solution Revive & Repair Hair Masque

Posted on October 20, 2016 by admin

My only experience with Jane Carter Solution is using their Revitalizing Leave-in Conditioner to refresh my curls. The Revitalizing Leave-in is great. I was in need of a treatment so I decided I would try their hair masque. I purchased the Jane Carter Solution Revive & Repair Hair Masque.

I started off by washing my hair with Shea Moisture African Water Mint & Ginger Detox & Refresh Hair & Scalp Gentle Shampoo. With my hair wet, I applied the masque in sections to my hair. The masque is thick and creamy with a pleasant smell. The slip is amazing. I left it on for 20 minutes and used a heating cap. My hair felt super soft when I rinsed it out. To style my hair I used the Revitalizing Leave-in. I didn’t use anything else because I wanted to see what would happen.

(Lighting is always an issue)

Really pleased with the results. The Revive & Repair Hair Masque delivered on its claims. This is definitely a holy grail product for me.

Target Trick or Treat Candy Loot Scoop Kitty Cat and Pumpkin

Posted on October 18, 2016 by admin

Last year Target came out with Trick or Treat Candy Loot Scoop which is a cool twist on a Halloween candy bag. The Target website description “Loot Scoop is great for trick or treaters of all ages but is easiest to carry for the younger kids. The fabric bag is sturdy and printed with Target’s exclusive Halloween design”. The cost is $5.

The Loot Scoops were hard to find in stores last year but I managed to get the Pumpkin. Pumpkin is an orange monster hand with a pumpkin design on the bag. It certainly was easier for my kid to carry. It was stuffed to overflowing and we didn’t experience any tears in the fabric.

People got a good laugh when dropping candies into the hand.

As you can imagine I was on the lookout this year to get my hands on another Loot Scoop for the kids. Being that I am a nail polish enthusiast, I was excited when my youngest kid found the Kitty Cat. Kitty Cat is women’s hand with a pink ring and glitter nail polish and a cat design on the bag. Love it!

It makes a great addition as a costume prop. I’m trying to convince my oldest kid to let me paint the nails on the orange monster hand with some glitter polish, perhaps green.

According to the Target website they have come out with a Skeleton, Disney Princess, Kylo Ren version. They also revamped the Pumpkin which now has a black bag.

Review of Controlled Chaos Curl Crème

Posted on October 6, 2016 by admin

I won a contest being hosted by Controlled Chaos for their Curl Crème. Curl Crème “enhances, conditions and defines all types of curls. Eliminates frizz and locks out humidity. Gluten, sulfate and paraben free and BPA UV protection”. This crème sounds amazing, so I could not wait to use it.

I checked out their “Style” section on their webpage, Controlled Chaos. I found the videos on this page useful in showing how to use their product in different ways and on different types of curly hair.

I washed my hair with Acure Repairing Shampoo and Conditioner. I made sure that I completely rinsed out my hair. I applied a small amount of the Curl Crème to help detangle my soaking wet hair. I sectioned my hair so that I could get full coverage of Curl Crème throughout. I applied very little to my roots and concentrated on my length like their website suggests. I let my hair air dry. I had no crunchy or stickiness. When my hair felt dry, I scrunched it out. My hair did not have that weighed down feeling. I was impressed by the curl definition and how bouncy they looked.
