Beauty Tuesday: Drug Store Score & More

As a doc student on a budget, I no longer can invest on high-end cosmetics such as my beloved

• M•A•C (Makeup Art Cosmetics) or
• O•P•I nail lacquers

Yet I don’t mind the beauty products that I find for less at CVS!

Latest Face Craze

I was in search of an eye makeup primer, and Neutrogena has these liquid shadows that already have it built-in with these neutral shades that make for a great *smoky eye* {Neutrogena Crease Proof Eye Shadow in Stay Golden 10 & Lasting Toupe 50} I already dig on Neutrogena products for their skin-protecting features, including their hypoallergenic eye products & SPFs!

Nail $ale

Of course, I can’t resist markdowns, especially on something I’m seeking anyway! {Milani Color Statement in Mint Crush} Close to Tiffany Blue

 

I’m all about the gold … These’ll top nails off! {Sally Hansen 8K Gold Hardener}

Good vibes to yours truly as I meet with my dissertation chair (head honcho professor of my committee) today!

Spa Saturday: Satin Hands & Lips

Congratulations to the Couple (my R.E. student‘s parents) whose †Church† ♥Wedding♥ where I’m proclaiming the Readings today!

• Old Testament: Sirach 26: 1-4, 16-21
• Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 128: 1-2, 3, 4-5
• New Testament: Romans 15: 1b-3a, 5-7, 13
• Gospel: John 17: 20-26
  

#1 Hand Softener * #2 Hand Smoothie * #3 Hand Cream

For spa treatment, I must commend María‘s Mary Kay gifts ~ in particular:

DON’T slack on ’em smackers!

• Satin Hands (3-step program at home + travel sizes for at my desk and on-the-go)
• Satin Lips (mask to exfoliate then balm to moisturize)

Beauty Tuesday: Gold and Goldilocks

This 2 for Tuesday double-feature boasts about my bold gold products and my hair…

#128GB in gold b/c I always get the most memory📳 & stay bold! #SonixCases 💼 #Delphine 🌸 beautiful faces #iPhone6plusMadeItsWay 💸 #iPhone6plusMadeMyDay 🌅 #iPhone6fix ➕ #DISPObustAFlow 🎤 #DisposAlwaysFly 👊 #iPhone6plus 📲 #luxuriousNOfuss 👛

My gold obsession has taken new heights with my iPhone 6 plus📱 and its glamorous case that pair well with my wristlet👛!

Gold to store my gold and gold cards!

 

Now that my ombré tips slowly are fading as my roots grow out🙆, I’m still savoring💆 my highlights as much as I can before severing💇 them off.

Fresh: from getting my cornrows & the CHRISTmas HOLYday season

Once I got my crown👑 braided👧 ~ thanks to my long-time hairdresser, since the high sky‘s the limit with her ~ I curled💁 the bottom for Ladies’ Night! 💃

Braids, curls & dolled-up, oh my! ¡Estoy lista por Ladies’ Night!

FYI: I miss ’tis the CHRISTmas🎄 HOLYday🎅 season!

Beauty Tuesday: Showered with Gifts

Happy 3 Kings👑

The 🎅holiday🎅 season has brought me these 👛beauty💄 products that come in handy!

I started using the Rodan+Fields UnBlemish acne treatment system from my sister, who also gave me the Birchbox travel treats, including the facial sea salts ~ which, along with the towelettes, also from her, as well as the mud mask, were *refreshing* to *exfoliate* on my recent snow day off! The Nivea Creme and Neutrogena lip balm are great moisturizers. I’m grateful for the sleep mask too!

What a perfect slogan for this Year of Finishing!

Beauty Tuesday: Bonita * Hermosa * Linda

While I do my best to pack light and stay somewhat low maintenance while traveling, I admit that I must maintain a grain of vain!

Therefore, during my EP trip, I brought trial-sized travel-friendly products, including:

• Birchbox (birthday gift from my sister)
• Mary Kay Clean Proof pack

Also, I visited A’GACI at Ft. Bliss …

… and ended up with this!

My friend and I represented her husband’s UTEP school colors ~ orange and blue ~ and she got this cute hair-do too!

Check out how to have bow braids like hers here: How to Create a Diagonal Bow Braid tutorial.

Beauty Tuesday Review: Honest and Hair

Jessica Alba…

I’ve always been a fan since this action actress’ Dark Angel days! Now I admire her beyond rocking out on stage and screen, for her entrepreneurialship! When her Honest Collection hit shelves at Target almost two months ago, I had to try it!

Don’t y’all love how both the product and the packaging are good to our environment? Plus, proceeds go toward a good cause, too!

Due to the damage caused by chemicals in my hair, I also grabbed a bottle of Garnier Fructis Damage Eraser. I like the fragrance, as with all GF products. This actually reminds me of Pantene’s leave-in treatment, so far.

Beauty Tuesday Review: Hair Care Tips from Root to Tip

I go BANANAS for apples and coconut… for my hair!

Let’s feed our body,  from the inside out.

Here’s where I got apple happy on Pretty Fit Way

As I’ve told you in my debut Beauty Tuesday Review, I prefer products that stimulate the senses, including scent!

What’s in my shower today? Stake off the flakes with this Head & Shoulders 2-in-1 Shampoo + Conditioner in Green Apple

Therefore, ridding of itch and irritation doesn’t have to smell like chemicals!

Before I lather up, I apply this to my hair…

Coconut Oil can “condition my color-treated hair and moisturize my skin” ~ Welcome to My Kitchen

While I say the Pretty Fit Way must practiced from the inside out, coconut oil

makes a great alternative in lieu of more fattening oils ~ WIMK

More Mane Management Tips from root to tip:

• Massage your head ~ to stimulate scalp for hair growth, as well as to soothe the brain for headache prevention (I swear by these, in particular from my student, a licensed massage therapist)
• Treat wet hair gently ~ no harsh brushing that would lead it to damage (I showed my shower combs in last week’s Beauty Tuesday segment)
• DON’T wash hair every single day ~ frequent washing can strip your hair from its natural oils
• DO wash hair after extended exposure outdoors ~ for allergy prevention (from mold and other muck in the air)
• Use Dry or Waterless Shampoo when water’s not available ~ to keep hair fresh (like my recommendation in my Beauty Tuesday debut)

Beauty Tuesday Review: Mani Monday Recap + Makeup Doll-up & Toss-up

Happy Belated St. Patty’s Day ♣

Last week, I showcased my fave beauty products, wrapped up winter and lit up my fitness hits! Since I still have way more that are worthy of mentioning, I’ll reveal a few for you…

What else is in my shower? When I suds up, I prefer to detangle so I don’t step out with shower head!

Clockwise from top right: Hand lotion like this Bath & Body Works handbag size, comes in hand-y for a mani • I love this Victoria’s Secret nail polish remover bottle because the cap opens up to a user-friendly press-dispenser & easily snaps shut • I keep most of my nail tools in this leopard-print manicure set case from my GODson’s mom • I travel with this pastel-striped manicure set from one of my students • I soothe my lil’ piggies with this gel toe separator for pedis + to relieve foot tension!

M•A•C‘s where it’s @: I stick with red & pink shades yet switch from smooth to shimmer, depending on the occasion … or the mood.

I also post on the From Head to Toe app, so here are a dozen photos, from Mani Monday to Mardi Gras to Face & Outfit of the Day:

Beauty Tuesday Review: Fave Raves & Some Rants

Now that I’m doing Spring Cleaning during this Spring Break, I shall share my favorite beauty products, as well as a few reviews…

Since I love to stimulate my senses, I tend to stock up on stuff that is visually-appealing ~ you know, eye candy ~ and smells good to yours truly.

Matrix® Biolage Hydrathérapie & Smooththérapie

Biolage by Matrix®  is my #1 brand of hair care because I feel like I’m in a spa whenever I use it! It’s a sweet treat for my hair since I always experience an enticing scent and a smoothing effect.

• Matrix® Biolage Hydrathérapie  Hydrating Shampoo and Conditioning Balm in the shower, plus Hydra Seal Softening Mist as a daily protectant (provided by my former student/hairdresser in the Valley)
• Matrix® Biolage Smooththérapie Smoothing Gel as a serum when styling
• Matrix® Biolage styling sprays: Thermal-Active Setting Spray before applying heat through blow-drying and ironing, Hydro-Glaze Soft Styling Spray for sheer hold or Finishing Spritz Firm Hold Spray to last all day

Pantene Pro-V & TRESemmé + Conair & Revlon

However, I also rely on TRESemmé and Pantene Pro-V styling products when using my Conair and Revlon hair appliances.

• TRESemmé Fresh Start Waterless Foam Shampoo when I don’t have time to wash ~ which is a quick fix from sweaty hair at the gym ~ and America’s #1 Mousse for volume
• Pantene Pro-V Anti-Humidity Hairspray for staying power and Repair & Protect Overnight Miracle as a serum while I sleep [I also lavish in the Ultimate 10 BB Crème to condition my hair throughout the day, among many other functions]
  
• Conair®  Ionic Cord-Keeper Retractable Styler 1875 to dry [similar: Ionic Cord-Keeper Compact Styler 169XR] and Infiniti Pro Styler Flat Iron to flip   
• Revlon Limited Edition Leopard Tapered 1″ Curling Wand ~ which gives me princess curls [I’ve been want the Conair® Infiniti Auto-Rotating Curling Iron]

What’s in My Shower? More Pantene & Herbal Essences + Garnier Fructis

• Pantene Pro-V Expert Collection Age Defy Shampoo (not a fan due to sulfate content that tends to dry hair) and Conditioner (I like the moisture with Oil of Olay collab)
• [not pictured yet worthy of mentioning: Pantene Pro-V Beautiful Lengths Shampoo and Conditioner to maintain strength in my long hair and supports Breast Cancer Awareness]
• Clairol Herbal Essences  Body Wash in Hello Hydration is refreshing with coconut aroma
• Garnier Fructis Ultimate Cleanser 3-in-1 Clean that does triple-duty as cleanser, exfoliating scrub and mask

Are You Sure? Raise Your Arms!

I stash deodorant in my bathrooms and my bags, so I’m always ready to combat b.o.

• Lady Speed Stick Stainguard and Invisible Dry to prevent white/yellow stains ~ particularly when I wear white or black
• Adidas Deep Energy that I roll on after a workout
• Dove® Clinical Protection Visibly Smooth to reduce shaving (I haven’t shaved in five years since I started laser hair removal anyway) ~ especially when I wear sleeveless or strapless tops
• Secret Outlast ~ my personal favorite due to the soft glide that lasts all day
• Tom’s Long Lasting in a floral fragrance just in time for spring plus Naturally Dry trial sizes for trips
• Avon Night Magic for my evenings out

N for SkiN Care: Neutrogena & Nivea Rock!

To treat my oily-dry combination skin, I need a variety of skin care products that treat acne and moisturize!

• Neutrogena® Clear Pore Astringent, Healthy Skin Face Lotion (I dig the dial to snap shut when not in use and the SPF 15) [similar: Oil-Free Moisture SPF 15], plus Eye Makeup Removers Hydrating Lotion and Cleansing Towelettes (I love the cucumber and aloe extract that soothes the under-eye area, and it works for the whole face)
• Neutrogena® Oil-Free Acne Wash Pink Grapefruit Scrub to energize me as soon as I wake up and Redness Soothing Facial Cleanser to wash my face at bedtime
• Eucerin Aquaphor ~ this was recommended to me to aid in healing my fresh ink (new tats at the time), but now I have other reasons: petroleum-based to delay aging in under-eye skin plus to moisturize lips and chapped skin
• Nivea Soft Refreshing Soft Moisturizing Creme as my sweet-smelling night moisturizer after I use the fragrance-free Neutrogena with sunscreen during the day, plus the Lip Care Kiss of Protection with SPF 30, Recovery with SPF 15 and Smoothness with SPF 10 [not pictured yet also recommended: Kiss of Moisture with jojoba oil and shea butter plus Kiss of Cherry with cherry red tint]
• I also have for allergy relief Vicks VapoRub both to inhale and rub on muscle aches and Clear Eyes Maximum Itchy Eye Relief Eye Drops

Neutrogena Skin-Clearing® w/ Microclear® Technology

	FALL/WINTER (fairer complexion)	SPRING/SUMMER (more sunkissed)
Oil-Free Makeup	Warm Beige 90	Natural Tan 100

Hello Kitty for M•A•C & Forever 21 Limited Editions

Hello Kitty Happiness

• Forever 21 Limited Edition (2013) Scarf Print travel bag for my jewelry and toiletry bag
• Sephora Hello Kitty roller ball fragrance in Pink Bow (also below) [similar product: Hello Kitty Parfum Rollerball]
• M•A•C Limited Edition (2009) makeup bag and lipstick bag, plus Beauty Powder in Pretty Baby, Eye Shadow Palette in Too Dolly, Lustre Lipstick in Most Popular and LipGlass Lip Gloss in Sweet Strawberry

Signature Fragrances for Each Season

These are just a few of my favorite fragrances, in rotation by season.

• Sephora Hello Kitty Pink Bow roller ball when on-the-go
• Victoria’s Secret Bombshell Summer Edition
• Coach Legacy for Fall
• VS Angel Gold for Winter

Sephora Fragrance Sampler mini vials come in handy for travel

My sample bottles, including from this Sephora Favorites Fragrance Sampler for Her and from VS, are the perfect size to fit into my array of purses! 

More Sephora Fragrance Samplers

See how Sephora samples accumulate?

What’s in My Purse? Coach Handbags for Each Season + Bare Essentials I Don’t Leave Home Without

I should have enough scent samples to fill all of my handbags, including a couple of my classics and a couple of my seasonal

• Coach [counter-clockwise, from bottom right]: Madison Maggie Shoulder Bag in chocolate-doe/gold hardware with matching wristlet that I change out with larger bags, Poppy Denim Whipstich Hippie with matching wallet that has Legacy Stripes lining, Signature C Tote in tri-color, Poppy Pop C backpack in pastel/gold hardware
• Bath & Body Works® PocketBacs are in all of my bags
• As you already know, I also keep deodorant in handy
• A first-aid kit, or at least Neosporin and bandaids (like in this keychain container) aid in the event of a boo-boo
• My generous students have gifted me with other beauty needs worth mentioning: blush and eye shadow palette and manicure set from one plus Breast Cancer Awareness compact mirror from another!
• Miniature lotions and fragrances (such as those that appear above) ~ including this Juicy Cologne in Sprightly Sparkle from the Philippines ~ help my body smell nice
• Last but most definitely not least: gum freshens my breath, and floss picks are a must-have between meals!

Bath & Body Works® Aromatherapy & Fragrances to Get Through the Day

Certain scents are perfect for the senses at a specific time

• This B&BW® P.S. I Love You Spring Fling Lotion and Body Spray is great for the upcoming spring days and sunny rays!
• Orange for energy ~ such as B&BW® Orange Sapphire or Aromatherapy Energy with Orange + Ginger upon awaking 
• Eucayptus for destressing ~ such as B&BW® Aromatherapy Stress when relieving anxiety [I also apply the aforementioned Vicks VapoRub to tense muslces]
• Jasmine for romance ~ such as B&BW® Night Blooming Jasmine or Aromatherapy Sensual with Jasmine + Vanilla at bedtime [I also use vanilla to relax, such as from the Summer Vanillas collection ~ Berry, Lemon and Coconut] 
• Lavender for rest ~ such as B&BW® Aromatherapy Sleep with Lavender + Vanilla at bedtime

NOTE: None of these aforementioned rants and raves are endorsements; they all simply come from my own opinion [other similar product mentions appear in brackets].
