Neutrogena Moisture Smooth Color Stick

Hey everybody! Yesterday, I went to Walgreens to search for Neutrogena's Moisture Smooth Color Stick. I had heard a lot of good reviews for this product and that it was a dupe for Clinique's Chubby Stick, so I had to go out and get it. I don't have Clinique's Chubby Stick, so I can't compare these two, but of the reviews that I saw, the owners of both of these products preferred Neutrogena's take on it.  Neutrogena's Moisture Smooth Color Stick costs about nine dollars at most places, but the prices may vary at different stores and cities. First of all, I love the texture, it's so creamy. I bought this in Sweet Watermelon, which is a bright pink with sparkles. Although I wish there weren't sparkles, I love this enough that I would definately buy it again.  The color is fairly sheer, so it's great for everyday wear. As for the moisturizing properties, I can't exactly say since I've only used this for a day, but my lips did seem to be a little bit more moisturized after one use. Lastly, the smell is amazing! Mine smells fruity, but each color might smell different, however, if you absoloutely HATE scents, you might want to stay away.  To my knowledge, you can find Neutrogena's Moisture Smooth Color Stick at Walgreens, CVS, http://www.neutrogena.com/, and Target. What do you think about Nutrogena's Moisture Smooth Color Stick?Bye!



Sorry the swatch isn't very good

DIY Hair Mask with Honey

Hey Guys! I've recently started doing hair masks and I'm thrilled with the results! In the winter, my hair can get really dry and prone to breakage and this makes it soft and healthy again. I like to use it once a week so it stays nice and shiny. My hair is shoulder length and thin, so adjust it if needed. I should warn you though, although my hair hasn't lightened in color (I'm blonde naturally), some people have experienced hair lightening. Here's the recipe!

What You'll Need:

  • Honey 
  • Conditioner
  • Bowl
  • Tablespoon Measuring Spoon
  • Spoon
Recipe
  1. Place one tablespoon of honey in a bowl
  2. Place on tablespoon of conditioner in a bowl
  3. Mix 
  4. Place the mixture in the microwave for about 8 seconds (until it gets slightly liquidy, I tried 15 seconds but it was too liquidy)
  5. Starting at your roots, apply the mixture to your hair until all of your hair is covered in the mask
  6. Put on a shower cap, or towel on your head, and wait 30 minutes (This mixture doesn't ever dry but this is a good amount of time for your hair to absorb the moisture)
  7. Wash it off with shampoo
That's it! I hope you guys enjoyed this easy DIY! Bye!
