P-Co Beauty Diary

So I bought Umberto U Color hair dye at Ulta in the color light copper gold. The color is a demi permanent so it won't last forever. Here was my hair color before (it was completly natural) and here is the after As you can see not much difference it's a little bit lighter and shinier (which I like) the package came with two applications so I will reapply again when it starts to fade (if I even notice) XOXO!

I had a $5 off a purchase of $10 or more coupon and here is what I bought Umberto's U Color kit in light copper gold, Ulta hand sanitizer in green apple, Sally Hansen Just Feet cooling foot and leg gel, cotton balls, Ulta cupcake bath fizzy, and Ulta nail polish in Pinata-Yada-Yada. Everything but the hair dye was on clearance plus the coupon means I didn't break the bank! XOXO!

here is a drink recipe Doctor 1/2 oz of black rum 1 oz of Jagermeister 4 oz of Dr.Pepper 

For my brows I currently use Benefit's Instant Brow pencil or Tarte's EmphasEYES brow pencil but a week ago I purchased  Benefit Cosmetics Brows a Go-Go  From Ulta. This brow shaping kit came with brow zings powder in both light and dark, brow zings wax, a black eyeliner called smokin', eye bright,  brow highlight powder, mini tweezers, and a double ended brush. I love the eye bright which is like a concealer that just brightens up dark circles. The highlight powder and the eyeliner is OK, not bad but not great. As far as the brow zings powder, I use the light and I find that it works good but it I don't like how the brow zings wax is darker than the brow zings light powder. I have to be VERY careful not to apply too much wax. Would I buy this kit again? Not unless it was on sale (retails for $38) I would however buy the eye bright! XOXO!

So with this month's  Jewel Mint  credit I got this It is called the East Side Beat Duo, I do like these two piece but the ring is what really sold me. It isn't as solid as the other pieces I have received from them (see other blog  post  ) but I think it's because you can self adjust it. So far I have been pleased with all 3 piece I have received from  Jewel Mint  XOXO! (check out my beauty deals page to see how you can get 50% off your first order)

This past weekend I took some sciors to my own hair here is the before Here is the after  Not too shabby but stupid me wanted more and I went to get my hair cut by a professional. I told the lady I wanted more of an A-line and if the cut wouldn't work with my hair texture let me know. I don't know what the hell she thought she was doing because what I wanted isn't what I got  here is part of the finished product  the back is too bad to show the world and I am starting to hate my hair more and more each day. Pray for me  XOXO!

I got this off of D.Sadie's Blog  D.G.S. Beauty  and thought it would be fun  1) Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, eyeliners, lipsticks, and lip-glosses or lose all of your palettes and eye shadows? I would rather loose my palettes I have color eyeliners that I could use as shadows 2)  Would you rather chop off all your hair or never be able to cut it again? Um Chop it all off 3) Would you rather have a coral cheek or a pink cheek? Pink cheeks! 4) If you had $1000 to spend, would you rather buy clothes or makeup? Clothes (do handbags count?) 5)  Would you rather apply lipstick as eyeliner or eyeliner as lipstick? Eyeliner as lipstick  6) Would you rather only shop at MAC or Sephora? Hands down without a question SEPHORA that is my second home  7) Would you rather only use one eye shadow color or one lip color the rest of your life? One lip color 8) Would you rather wear winter clothes in summer or summer clothes in winter? Summer in the winter cause I am naturally hot!

So today I received my July Birchbox  and I am once again happy. (Click  HERE  to see my June box) This month  was focused on Cynthia Rowley and in my box was: -1 fl oz Philosophy Purity Made Simple -.33 fl oz Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Multi-usage Dry Oil -2.1 oz Redken Shine Flash -Zoya nail polish in Pandora -Kind almond and apricot fruit and nut bar I am also debating on if I am going to buy the limited edition  Tip to Toe Treats Cynthia Rowley box  since I have a 10 dollar credit if I do I'll keep ya'll posted! XOXO!

So I recently purchased some vegan soap from L ux Naturals  and  iVi Scents  and here my thoughts: I purchased two soaps from  iVi Scents  one was from the Kandee Johnson collection  called Birthday Cake soap and the other soap I purchased was the Hawaiian Cake soap. Both soaps smell yummy (I must have been craving cake when I place my order), the Hawaiian cake smells like a Jolly Rancher and the birthday cake soap smells exactly like white birthday cake. I love the cute packaging and the soaps clean as well as any non-vegan soaps I tried. They don't leave my skin dry or itchy like some drug stores soaps do and because they are not harsh on the skin I have been using them on my kids and they love the cake smell. From  Lux Naturals , I received a ginger pear soap. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the way this soap smells. It smells just like the name ginger pear, the smell is not too sweet and not too spicy. The soap does have a nice lather and does the job as far as getting your body clean.

So as you may already know I am struggling to get off the creamy crack (hair relaxers) I really want long healthy hair, but since my hair won't grow unless I'm pregnant I am just going to have to settle for healthy hair. I have been trying out some non heat styles to get me through this transitional phase in my life (I really would like to avoid chopping all my hair off).This is one idea I tried. I wet-set my hair in these rod rollers which I found at Ulta. Then I went to bed, woke up the next morning and took out the rods this what I ended up with  Then I lightly sprayed my hair with water and applied a dime size of  Amika Oil Treatment  ( I got a sample from Sephora) and this was the end result  It's not my favorite hair style but I could wear this to work or out running errands. I thought me and my daughter looked like twins which was cute!
