let's blab about Black Hair Spray

This is a sponsored post. All opinions are mine

Wearing wigs can be so much Fun! They make me feel sexy and exotic. Like I can be someone else for the day. So I was very excited to work with Black Hair Spray.com . I had not heard of them before today.  They offer a HUGE selection of affordable, wigs from just pony tails to full wigs.  They come in a variety of shades and textures so you could change your look everyday if you wanted to!



They offer so much more than wig though, they have everything from skincare to shampoo/conditioner sets along with everything in between. From just about every brand you can imagine . Brands suck as Milky Way, Freetress Equal, Sensationnel , Outre, Model Model, Isis Collection, Bohyme, Saga Remy, Goddess, Velvet, Janet Collection, Vivica Fox Collection, Hollywood, Zury, It's A Wig! and New Born Free, just to name a few.

The offer a convenient, no hassle, 30 day return policy, price matching guarantee and offer in-house live chat customer service.  So there is no buyer remorse if you see the same item at a lower cost.  But with everything so affordable I can't imagine you'll find too many lower prices.

Visit the site now because the annual sale end 3/21/17 and I know y'all love a bargain as much as I do!

The Skin Regime (Book and Peel) Review and Giveaway



Want beautiful skin but having a hard time finding a regimen that will work for you?  Go to bootcamp - Yes boot camp for beautiful skin where you can find out how to get great skin forever. Even better get it inexpensively and simply.

Check out Dana Ramos' The Skin Care Regime -- Boot Camp for Beautiful Skin the set comes with a book and a vial of 1-4 - All Peel. The book is very entertaining and well written. The book . I  I like that it is a book i can relate to. It is tips on how to treat just about ever skin problem from unwanted hair to acne. And lots of things in between. t's not a lot of medical mumble jumble it's is written on a level that we can all understand.

The 1-4-All Peel is a combination of these ingredients:

  • Mandelic acid
  • Trichloroacetic acid
  • Glycolic acid
  • Salicylic acid
  • Resorcinol
  • Lactic acid


All of which are great for your skin. The instructions are extremely detained on how to get the best use for YOUR skin out of the regimen (and others)  There is no guesswork at all on your part so that leaves no room for error. No errors means your skin will thank you for helping it with little or no irritation. The instructions are written for someone who has never used a peel which is awesome. I can't stand when a company gives half instructions that assume you have vast knowledge when you don't.

The peel itself is very easy to use an the entire process is very quick. It can be progressively strong so you are not stuck one level of skin care if you need more.



The Skin Care Regime is available on Amazon in paperback or Kindle Versions.  There a lots of other skin care products on TheSkinRegime.com plus, you can read the first chapter for free.

2 BIBLICAL BEAUTY: ANCIENT SECRETS AND MODERN SOLUTIONS - Giveaway



I have always liked to read and I love reading how women in the olden times made makeup and beauty treatments. You wouldn't believe some of the things they did to look beautiful even back then.  I don't know if I would have loved makeup so much as I do now if I had to use dung and coal for mascara. So even back when it was hard to be beautiful.

When I got to review Biblical Beauty by Rachelle Weisberger I was very excited. Not only does it have Ancient Secrets it also offers Modern Solutions so I knew this would be something I would really get into.The book is packed with tons of helpful hints for everything for from skin care to picking the right shade of lipstick.

There is even a chapter on Jewelry which includes Rachelle's tips on caring for pearls. The book is very easy to read with a perfect size font no squinting needed. The book makes for very interesting reading. I'm sure I won't remember everything so I can keep handy for a quick reference when I want to refer back to the tips. The index makes it super easy to find what I'm looking for.

Now one of you have the chance to win your own copy of Biblical Beauty so you know I have to go over the rules here they are:

The Beauty Shelf -- Konjac Sponges



I love Konjac sponges and they are now a part of my every day beauty routine. Do you know the benefits of using a Konjac sponge instead of a towel? Here are a few:

  • gently exfoliates to bring back the natural glow of the skin
  • kills acne-causing bacteria
  • effectively balances the PHI of skin
  • naturally moisturizes the skin
After using sponges for a few months I have seen a very noticeable difference in my skin. Sponges are only good for 4 - 6 weeks so I am always up for using another brand or type. I  am  not extremely loyal to many brands because I never know when the next best thing will come along. 


I was excited to the Beauty Shelf sponges because they are unique in their adorable heart shape. Plus you get three in a pack compared to one sponge from the other guys. They are also unique in the fact that they are soft and squishy during shipment.  Most of them are very hard until wet so I found that interesting. It is also a set of three so you won't need to buy replacements for a few months even if you replace every  4 weeks.




I opened the black sponge first, they all have the same shape and benefits. I love the shape it makes it easy to hold and use. There is a string to hang it and that means a lot more to me than it should. I have one without a string and I have to find a place to put it. 

This sponge is soft and not as coarse as others I have tried. Being wet during shipping also makes it a faster to use than other sponges. I didn't have to soak it in water and wait for it to expand and soften. It was soft and ready to use when I opened the package. 


I am very pleased how these sponges hold up even with a few weeks of use. The black one is not torn or ripped in any way. I would recommend trying these sponges! They come in a three pack which is a HUGE plus!  

If you use code  TBSABL10 at check out you can get 10% off the already very reasonable price! 

I received these products complimentary in exchange for an honest uncompensated review but the opinion expressed is all mine.

SOBO Skin care Ultra anti-aging Creme with Resveratrol




I recently received a sample of the SOBO skin care Ultra anti-aging creme with Resveratrol to review for ya'll. I had never heard of SOBO until I applied to work with them so let me tell you a little bit about them. SOBO promises no parabens, sulfates, phthalates, GMO's, synthetic dyes, synthetic fragrances, triclosan, and no animal testing.  So they are a company that will not only make you look good but you can feel good purchasing their products.

The Ultra anti-aging creme works to noticeable reduce the appearance, volume, and depth of wrinkles up to 50% within 28 days.It also visibly minimizes the effects of aging and acts to soften the texture of skin for a younger, healthier look.

I have used some type of anti-aging cream since I was in my... well lets just say for a while now. I am always willing and eager to try new products because I never know when the next best thing is coming out.

The texture is thick but light and creamy.  It this almost cooling sensation when applied which I really like. It wears great under makeup because it absorbs quickly and is weightless on my skin. There is a light fresh smell that fads quickly so it's not bothersome during the day.

I love how soft and hydrated my face feels after using this product. SOBO has lots of other products including cleansers, toners, and serums so go check them out.  You can get 25% off your first purchase with code TRYSOBO at checkout.


This post was powered by Brandbacker and this sample was complimentary but the opinion expressed is all mine. Rest assured I only recommend products I feel are good for my readers.

Beautynoted.com review and giveaway


Sponsored by BeautyNoted.com

Do you like to try new beauty products but find yourself buying lots of things that are not right for you. Do you search the internet aimlessly only to realize you have really no idea what you want. I know I do all the time. I always want to try new colors, new foundations, whatever the case may be but  a lot of time when I get them home, they are not the right color.

I want to tell about a site that sort of takes the guess work out of buying new things. With BeautyNoted.com all you do is answer 10 simple questions and add a few of your favorite products. Both of which you can change at any time by visiting your personal profile. Then you are given suggestions based on the combination of your answers and favorite products.  It asked me about my preferred scents, skin type, skin color. I saw a few things that I really like so the system seems to work very well.

So I was given a gift card to spend at BeautyNoted.com and I went shopping should I say I went crazy. I shopped my suggestions, just added,  crowd favorites, I even ventured into all products. I really explored the site and had tons of fun. Before I knew it I had a cart full. So you see BeautyNoted.com takes the guess work out of you buying but does not limit you in any way. You can also stop by the site and read beauty tips or beauty related articles.

You can search and find something that you know you wanted to try like I purchased a Beauty Blender. I have always wanted to try one because I have heard great things but never got around to getting one. This is my haul minus one pack of corrector pens.

Boots Botanics Clay mask



In my Jadore voxbox post I told you I received a Boots Botanics Clay mask. Y'all know I've said before that I love face mask. They are a great way to pamper myself without having to leave my house. This mask is no different.



The mask is a rich oceanic clay mask that contains a negative electrical charge which acts like a magnet helping to draw deep-rooted impurities out of skin without drying. Its hydrating and oil absorbing properties leave skin soft, smooth, and wonderfully cleansed.

The first time I tried this mask I was very impressed. It applies easily just shake the tube and squeeze then spread it over face and neck. Then wait it dries pretty quickly I only left it 10 minutes and I did not use sparingly.  It was pretty funny when I walked out my oldest son jumped, guess I scared him.



It hardened and then I couldn't move my face. For some reason I love that feeling but I do have a hard time not talking for that long. Maybe subconsciously I like that being forced into silence and nobody can talk to me.

The mask removed easily now the directions say wipe off but I did rinse with a warm towel. My face experienced no irritation and my skin felt great after I washed it off. I give this mask two thumbs up. I will use the rest of the tube and I would purchase more once I run out.


I received this product complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes. If you are interested in joining the fun of Influenster let me know I have a few invites left.

Raise the Roots Review



As I may have mentioned before I am always searching for root lifters or volumizing hair care products. I have the flattest hair you can imagine if I don't work at it.  I usually use a root lifting spray and mousse to achieve ANY volume. I also blow dry my hair with a round brush for a little extra help. Well okay if I have plans I will take the time to blow dry my hair. But that is not exactly my favorite past time and it really takes too long for me.

I was super excited to review Raise the Roots by TruHair  which is a thickening fiber cream. I have used lots of products that claim to give volume but as I mentioned before I use a spray and mousse before I see results. I washed and combed my hair as usual. Then I put a very small amount of Raise the Roots in my hair as instructed I applied from root to tip.

Then I let it air dry like I do most nights. The next morning I woke up and straightened my hair. I was amazed at how nice my hair looked. It wasn't flat and stuck to my head. It also had a beautiful controlled bounce to it even after I straightened it.

I wasn't the only one that noticed when I walked out my husband said his usual you look nice. But this time he said " I really like your hair it looks very nice today." It's not like he has never complimented my hair before but there was a wow factor in his voice. You know what I mean? You can imagine how nice that was without a ton of extra work.

The cream itself is very thick so it takes very little to work. It does not weigh your hair down nor does it make it look greasy or feel sticky. I'm very impressed with Raise the Roots, it does the job of 2 products and a blow dryer.

If you want extra volume apply Raise the Roots before blow drying your hair. If you want to try Raise the Roots you can find it here 

Like TruHair on FaceBook  for the latest news and hair care tips.



I received this product complimentary in exchange for an honest, compensated review. The opinion expressed is all mine. Rest assured I only recommend products I feel are good for my readers.

Pure Yogi Chocolate Orange Body Scrub Review and Giveaway



I have always exfoliated my face and feet but my body, not so much. I had a few body scrubs but they were just meh, there was nothing exciting about them. Then one day my sister in-law gave me a sugar scrub to try.  I loved it and used every drop of it in just  a few weeks. I did my hands, elbows, and feet daily. I also read somewhere if you exfoliate before you shave it will make you have to shave less. I'm all for that so so I started using a scrub on my legs before I shaved.

When I was asked to choose something from Pure Yogi to review I knew I already had e a full scrub and didn't NEED another (my sister in-law gave me another) but chocolate orange sounded like an interesting combination. I also didn't think it would be much different from the one I was using., that was not true at all. The first time I used the Chocolate Orange Body Scrub I was blown away by how moisturizing it is. I have never had scrub moisturize while I used it. Sure I have felt smoother after using but not during use but this one my skin immediately felt SUPER soft and silky.

This scrub also is textured enough to work but dissolves wonderfully while using. I can't believe it took me this long to mention the smell, but WOW. The smells is amazing pretty much like a chocolate bar, it smells edible I haven't eaten it (don't plan to) but I'm sure it wouldn't taste good.  This is the best scrub I have ever used and I do plan to purchase more once I run out.  The ingredients are all natural: organic mineral salt, sunflower oil, vitamin E, cocoa, coffee, bitter orange peel, orange and chocolate.  As it's not full of chemicals and  it is also not harsh on your skin. I occasionally suffer with eczema and can use this with no problem. In fact there is a spot of eczema on my foot that I have to scrub or it won't go away.

A little about Pure Yogi is an eco-friendly company that sells a variety of yoga props, as well as luxurious eco-fashion clothing items, and accessories. I'm a little clumsy but I love yoga and Pilates it's just hard to find the time.  There are lots of things I loved on the site their tops and pants are so cute. You can also purchase accessories they have yoga mats, blocks, and workout videos. I really hope they come out with a lotion and maybe bath gel soon to pair with the scrub.

Pure Yogi has offered to give one of my lucky readers your choice of selected products. Let's get the rules out of the way

Entries will be accepted from 12/9/13- 12/23/13 - come back daily to share for extra entries

Wantable Makeup box




So I've told you about the Wantable Jewelry box now I'm here to tell you about the Wantable MakeUp box.  I have told you about other boxes but with Wantable you get a box packed with full size unique, specialty, and premium brands chosen just for you. Like I've mentioned before when you sign up for Wantable the process is very fun and detailed. You go through likes, dislikes, and loves to give insight into what your perfect box would be.

This process always fun to me because I have a little control over what I get. They will never send you what you dislike so if I don't want mascara (which I didn't) I you just put you dislike it. If you really want tools (which I did) you put you love it.  They also go through colors which is great because that will stop me from getting red lip sticks that I won't wear.

I got my box so fast it seemed like it was delivered over night so there is hardly any waiting once you order.
This is the amazing products that were in my box.

Japonesque Angled Foundation Brush which retails for $24.50. This brush looks an amazing brush the idea of it being angled seems like it will make it perfect to get in the corners of your face.




A full size Girlacitk Beauty Star Shadow in  BalletThat is a single shadow which is a deep purple color.  Retail price $19.00per shadow. There are lots of other pretty colors to choose from. I can't wait to see how it wears.








Full size FACE Stockholm Concealer Stick in Medium which sells for $19.00. When I swatched it the stick was soft and went on smoothly. The coverage blended beautifully with my skin and it felt very light.  I can see this working very well and can't wait to try it.




Full size Color Club polish in Baldwin Blues which retails for $8.00 a bottle. I have mentioned before that I love blue polish and this one is spectacular being such a deep blue.

As a bonus I got a sample of Skiin Instant Skin Tightener & Line Filler which is super exciting because it is designed to help the wrinkles around the eyes by instantly tightening and lifting the skin. I can't wait to try this either. The sample looks like it will be at least a few applications.

So you can see that the quiz really works I got a box full of things I love and nothing that I can't use.

So a Wantable box is $36.00 per month or $40.00 for a one time delivery and you can cancel at any time. The total retail of all these products is $70.50 so it is definitely worth the money.  Once again Wantable proves to be an amazing subscription service. I have not tried the intimate but if I do you'll be the first to know what I think. The only problem I would have is deciding which box to subscribe to Jewelry, MakeUp or Intimate box delivered every month.  One day I will have to sneak them all into my budget!
