Volaire Hair Volumizing System

Since my last post earlier this year about Volaire's Air Magic Texturizing Spray, I've been able to try the entire hair line by Volaire!

I am really impressed with the Volaire Shampoo and Conditioner. My long hair has gotten so much more volume! I also love how the shampoo and conditioner dispense from the containers sort of like how shaving gel does. It's very lightweight. It's also ingenious to me that the conditioner is in a smaller bottle, since you usually don't use as much of it as shampoo. I always hate when my shampoo always runs out before my conditioner so they never finish at the same time. My hair feels strong and shiny, and I love the volume and bounce I have to my hair now.

The Volaire Uplift Volumizing Mist is such an added surprise. I use this on my hair when I get out of the shower when it's still wet. It helps protect my hair when I blow dry and it nourishes the scalp. Made with kelp and algae extracts as well as sea salt this helps give your hair some added vitamins and minerals and the sea salt helps absorb excess oils from hair.

Clarins Spring Makeup 2018: Shades of Roses

Right now in the Bay Area we are getting a taste of spring with weather in San Francisco in the 70's this week. It's been great to stop wearing heavy jackets and sweaters and move back to my pretty light tops and t-shirts.

Clarins has brought spring to our door with the loveliest shades of roses - light pinks and warm purples that are so perfect for soft spring eyes this season. The new Lovely Rose shade for the Clarins 4-Colour Eyeshadow Palette ($44 at Clarins USA) is my new favorite! These mineral shadows are wonderfully pigmented. I love using the light pink over my lids and then countering a little with the beige pink for a on-trend spring look.

Of course I'm all about lips when it's spring and summer. I have been wearing these two Clarins Instant Light Lip Balm Perfectors ($26 at Clarins USA) on repeat for the last two weeks. The new shades 07 hot pink and 08 plum are such great colors! The lip perfectors feel amazing on my lips, just like wearing lip balm. My lips never feel dry at all. I love the glossy shine and the beautiful sheer color. Anything thing I love about these is that the tubes are so slim and compact, you can easily fit it inside any mini bag (or pocket) to take them on the go!

Here's a swatch of the colors: 07 hot pink (at top) and 08 plum.
