How To: Create a Beehive

Beehive Your Hair with Bosley!

The beehive is back and not the kind that you are swatting around during the hot summer months! Remember that ancient hairstyle you saw in the movie Hairspray, and teased your mom about….well it is back!

A recent article in The New York Times (see below) claims that the beehive look is back but the trick is finding the right mix of prissiness and seductiveness. In Vera Wang’s fall ready-to-wear show, the models displayed a perfect blend of edge and coyness with their messy behives.

To get this look at home use Bosley Professional Volumizing & Thickening Styling Mousse, that infuses instant body and shine while it strengthens and thickens the hair shaft. Then spray it up with the Bosley Volumizing & Thickening Styling Hairspray that provides long-lasting body and shine while holding the style in place!

My 14 Day Activia Challenge: Part 2

I am now 7 days into my Activia challenge and I can honestly say I am feeling better.  I noticed within the first few days that my stomach just felt better no weird stomach aches or gas pains even on the days I ate too much junk.

I had two big worries starting the Activia Challenge number one, that it would taste chalky or just gross, but I have now tried the Vanilla, Strawberry and Peach flavors and they are all yummy, I even look forward to my little Activia snack each day. Second worry (and one that a lot of people ask about) was I going to be constantly in the bathroom with bowels that had gone out of control. Now a week in that worry has subsided as well I have not had any bathroom issues.

If you haven’t had a chance to try it yet get to the store and get a pack for the Activia taste test, if you don’t like the yogurt Dannon will refund your money!

Dannon Activia is a delicious way to help naturally regulate your digestive system: clinically proven to be effective in two weeks, when eaten daily; contains a unique culture … Bifidus Regularisexclusive toDannon!

And for the five-time Grammy award winner, who has been using Olay products for “at least a decade now,” there couldn’t be a better brand to break into the beauty business with. “As a little girl I remember my mom always using the original Olay Beauty Fluid and encouraging my sisters and I to take care of our skin. I love that Olay has managed to change with the times, yet stay in touch with women of all ages who want affordable skin care products that do what they promise,” Carrie says in a statement. The country music superstar, who is about to kick-off her “Play On Tour” this fall, will appear in print and television ads for Olay’s “Challenge What’s Possible” campaign, scheduled to debut later this year.

Must Have: EOS Shave Cream

I was taking a little ‘me’ time over the weekend and since every store was closed I ended up browsing the shelves at Target. I happen to notice the bottle on the EOS shave cream, its bright pink and in a cool rubber like bottle  so no rust rings to deal with and at $2.99 a bottle I figured how bad can it be.

Turns out its not just any old shave cream, its the best! Its not the normal foam that junks up your razor it comes out more like frosting, and the scent is t die for. The results were amazing my skin feels so soft and I got a perfect shave with no nicks. The packaging suggest you can even shave dry with this lotion I have yet to try that, dry shaving brings back flashbacks of my first shave straight razor to leg. (ouch)

I am so in love with this new shave cream I am headed back to get another scent, maybe cucumber melon?
