A Few Things I Bought Recently & Reviews

Hi guys!
 This is my first blog post of many more to come. Thank you for reading. I've started to blog and make Youtube videos because I don't have a hobby and have become lonely moving to a new state and becoming a military wife. I don't have any friends here and I've lived here for 8 months. I usually spend my time watching videos from beauty gurus such as Zoella, Sprinkle of Glitter and Sunbeamsjess.


I've recently bought a few things..and wanted to share my experience and thoughts on them. I'll be posting a video also with everything I bought over a few weeks, these are just a few things.

BIG Shampoo by Lush


I bought this about a month ago online because there is no Lush store near me or actually at all in the state of North Carolina. It was a bit pricey..$26.99..eek! This is the most expensive hair product I have ever bought. It had such good reviews I had to try it out! My hair is very fine, and I don't have much of it! I don't use this shampoo everyday but on the days I do it works great! I combine it with Loreal Eversleek Deep Conditioner which I will also review in this blog post. It really does give my hair a little boost and more life to it! I'll even give it the title of the best shampoo I have ever used. I am glad I took a risk and bought this expensive shampoo. When I first smelled it, I was like eh.. this is a little strange, but in the shower I think it smells better. It has a really light scent of lemony goodness, hehe. It lathers in my hair better than I thought a chunky salt shampoo would. I really love this shampoo and don't regret buying it at all!

Loreal Eversleek Smoothing Deep Conditioner



You can buy this at any drugstore or wal-mart, target, etc. The only reason I picked this one up was because I saw it was on sale for $5.00. I took it home and immediately tried it because this was the first deep conditioner I've ever bought. It made my hair feel so smooth, and seemed to get all my tangles out. I was a little worried that it would just make my hair flat, being that my hair is naturally straight and fine. But using it on only the bottom half of my hair makes it silky smooth and soft. I've read other reviews on this and other people had a not as good experience with it, others have said it didn't do anything at all to their hair.




Philosophy Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash


I bought this at Ulta for $26.00. I've only used it for a week, but so far I do like it. The texture is rough, kind of scratchy, but not too scratchy, scratchy in a way that it feels like your cleaning your skin really well. The smell is not good. It's not terrible to the point where I wouldn't use it, but it does not have a nice scent to it. I only need to use drop to wash my whole face so hopefully this lasts me a long time. I don't really have much else to say about it since I haven't used it very long, although my skin does look a little better!


I bought the face wash online and was also given a few free samples. I have yet to try them.

I'm not going to use the Redken shampoo and conditioner until I remove the dark dye from hair and re-dye my hair to a similar color to my natural color.
The gloss cream, I'm a little iffy about since my hair is naturally quite oily and lifeless, but I might try it on my ends sometime soon.
The Benefit hydrating cream; I'll probably never use because my face is never dry and it's usually quite oily.

Thanks for Reading! Here's some earrings I bought from Forever 21:
