The Ultimate Holiday collection from Tarte Carried Away Collector’s Set.  

I love how unique Tarte’s collection is. The pattern and cute bag with a huge mirror and everything you need to do your makeup perfect for travel. And the products are great, the eyeshadows are great quality really pigmented, and easy to blend. The glosses are great they have a bit of mint to them and I love the satin finish colors. The blush looks amazing just the right amount of color without being overdone.

The best part of this kit has to be the genius packaging. The roll out makeup bag and all the eyeshadows stay put behind the mirror. There is a ton of space in the pockets to add your own items you want to carry. Such a great kit and it would be great for any makeup lover on your list that travels or even gets ready at the gym. Beautiful products all wrapped up in a convenient and cute case!

ColorMark TouchBack

I’m ashamed to admit what I’ve used UP UNTIL NOW for my persistent roots. Those would be GRAY roots, if you must know. I have brown hair, naturally, so my lovely gray hair shows ever-too-well, just a couple weeks after I dye my hair (which I do myself, 6N – thankyouverymuch!). Okay, up until now I’ve used eyeshadow on my gray roots. Honestly, it works pretty well, but it doesn’t last. It will wear off, fall off, fade away, however you want to say it – after a couple hours. But if I’m in a pinch, eyeshadow it is! Well, I’ve got a new product that has saved all my brown shadows!

Stretch The Time Between Colorings…The Easiest Touch-Up Ever! TouchBack’s marker delivers the perfect amount of color…continuously. The Fiber Flow applicator applies real temporary hair color to gray roots…precisely. TouchBack is the fastest touch-up for gray roots. Dries in a minute. Won’t flake or rub off – even after brushing.

Real Hair Color…Bonds To The Hair! TouchBack actually bonds to the hair, blending beautifully with permanent hair color for a totally natural look. (Unlike hair mascaras, crayons, gels and powders, which dull the hair and flake off when brushed. TouchBack’s formula uses certified hair colors, but without harsh chemicals – no ammonia or peroxide – so, it’s gentle on your hair.

Directions:

The TouchBack marker should be applied to dry hair. For resistant gray hair, hold the marker on the hair for a few seconds to deposit additional color. Mousse, gels and other styling products may be used prior to applying TouchBack, and hair spray can be used over it. TouchBack includes a special comb for use at temples and hairline. The comb acts as a skin shield for those areas. Slide the comb under the hair, as close to the scalp as possible, then apply TouchBack. To remove TouchBack, simply shampoo out.

Seriously – I LOVE this. I will use this probably quicker than most people, because at 35-years-old, God has blessed me with about 50% gray hair.

Jonathan Product Dirt Texturizing Paste

“I love the way hair looks and behaves the day after washing. It has great manageability and sheen. Dirt gives you the day-after effect simply, without hassle. Mold, chunk, separate, texturize. Have fun.” – Jonathan

This non-greasy, non-sticky water based texturizing paste infused with Lemongrass Essential Water adds manageability. Sweet almond protein helps repair all types of hair. White tea, almond, horsetail and nettle extracts nourish, stimulate and condition. A potent antioxidant blend of natural plant botanicals combined with a UV filter help protect hair and prevent color fading. No mineral oil, synthetic colors, DEA or MEA.

Directions:
Rub a small amount in your hands until it liquefies. Simply work into dry hair and style to desired effect. Can also be applied to damp hair.

I’ve used this product a couple times, and I love the effect! It only takes a teenie tiny bit to see results. You put a small bit in your hands, and it turns into a liquid after you rub it! You put it on your damp hair before styling, and voila! It helps prevent that color of yours from fading, and also has a UV filer in it!

Love!!

New mom Hilary Duff was looking for a bit of a change this week, and she decided to ditch her extensions! And look at the beautiful results! Her natural hair is absolutely gorgeous! The actress tweeted, ”No extensions . . . Feels liberating . . . lol,” Duff, 25, wrote. “Thank you prenatal vitamins!”

Eight months after welcoming baby Luca, her first child with hubby Mike Comrie, the former Disney star is focused on making over more than just her hair; the actress is also logging some serious gym time in order to shed the baby weight.

So far, her sessions with celeb trainer Gabe Johns seem to be doing the trick — last week, Duff posted a photo of some brand-new pants she had purchased.

“Yaaaa bitches! Gabe Johns, you’re kicking my ass and it’s paying off! Skinny jeans! Let’s go!” she wrote next to a photo of size 26 pants December 3.

She looks beautiful!
