</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Here are a few of the trends I am digging at the moment. </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.myfashioncents.com/files/2010/07/New-Picture-16.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://www.myfashioncents.com/files/2010/07/New-Picture-16.bmp" width="159" /></span></span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">1. COBALT BLUE - This color is super popular for the fall. This color looks good on a lot of people.<br />
I bought the above Max & Cleo dress last week for $30 on sale! I changed out the ribbon belt...for a different look. This dress is featured in InStyle Makeover Mag (Fall 2010) for $118. I got it for $30 from Ross Dress for Less! $88 savings! </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">2. LACE UP BOOTS - I love a nice new pair of boots when the colder weather creeps in. I absolutely love these boots! They are French Connection, I have to wait for them to go on sale. But these will definitely be on my list! </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">3.GREEN EYESHADOW - I am really digging this look on Jada. This color is beautiful on many skin colors, you just have to blend and find the right shade. If you are not this adventurous with makeup, Try a neutral/light gold eyeshadow and add a little green liner, or just a hint of green shadow in the outer corners. </span></span></div>This Chickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09725064335234310443noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2176089229925430326.post-66008555537677244512010-08-20T16:57:00.000-07:002010-08-20T20:16:51.565-07:00Pep the Mascara Maniac!<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-large;">Hey Ladies, I have been a very busy woman lately, and have not had the opportunity to update these past couple weeks....but it was worth the wait, because we have our first guest writer on Diaries of a Recessionista!</span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-large;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-large;">Pep is a college buddy of mine who has a secret obsession about mascara!</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-large;">Lucky for us, we can use her addiction to find us the best there is in the beauty isles!!</span></span></div></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-large;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-large;">Read Pep's message below! </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><br /></span></span></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.rimmellondon.com/Images_Market/UK/Lash%20Flirt%20Header%20Image.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 480px; height: 148px;" src="http://www.rimmellondon.com/Images_Market/UK/Lash%20Flirt%20Header%20Image.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" border-collapse: collapse; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><br /></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-large;">Are you looking for an everyday mascara that gives you length and division?

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I don't buy too many hair products over $7. But I do like to splurge a little bit, so the only hair product I am willing to spend a little more cash on is conditioners!! </span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Pureology is one of my favorites, I have been using this product for more than 5 years, my hair stylist introduced me to it when I dyed my hair blond. This product is great to keep your hair moisturized weather your hair is color treated or not. It's about $25 and this product can be found at Ulta, Beauty Brands and I have found it in Target as well. Ulta has small sample sizes available at $7-9 if you would like to try it out. </span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The other conditioner I started using this year is Moroccan Oil. I bumped into this product at Beauty brands, turquoise is my favorite color, so I was attracted to it just by looking at the packaging. But what got me hooked is the scent. It smells so good, I love this stuff! It's about $30 at Beauty brands, and your hair is extremely moisturized after use.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

I don't use conditioner daily, so I don't run through the product very fast where I would have to constantly replenish. Which would not make me a recessionista! (LOL) </span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

(ACV rinse)<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://growblackhair.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/apple-cider-vinegar-heinz.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://growblackhair.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/apple-cider-vinegar-heinz.jpg" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">I know some of you are thinking.... EWWW!!! I thought the same thing at first, but being the recessionista that I am, I wanted to give it a try. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">My Sands/Line Sister Khalilah put me on to the ACV rinse. She has long beautiful locks and she has been using this secret for awhile! (Everybody at the count of 3 say.... THANKS EL-AMIN!)</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">To do the rinse you take 1 cup apple cider vinegar and add to 3 cups water. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">(I like to use warm water) I also put the mixture in a water bottle to help make the application easier. I usually do this in my kitchen sink as I don't want my shower to smell of vinegar. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Some people use the ACV rinse only, to cleanse hair. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">I must wash my hair with shampoo so I shampoo before using this rinse. So after shampooing I apply the ACV rinse and work it through my hair. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">You immediately begin to feel your hair get softer. After I worked the rinse in for about 5 min. I rinse with water. Then I apply a deep conditioner like Organic Root Stimulator Replenishing Pak. I usually sit under a dryer for 20 min with a plastic cap. I find that using the conditioner after the rinse eliminates the smell of vinegar. My nose is extremely sensitive to smell so I never skip this step!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">After this is completed your hair is super soft and shiny!! </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">If you are at all confused about this process, look it up on You tube. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">You will find plenty of tutorials on the rinse, some vary in the amount of vinegar & water they use. I found this amount to work the best for my hair. </span></span><br />

So I decided to do a post. This regimen I originally got from DPrincess28 on Youtube, but I have changed my regimen since last summer. </span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">ALL of my hair products are less than $7! I refuse to splurge on product I use daily, I only splurge on good conditioners, I will do a post on those on a later date. </span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">First I wash my hair with the Creme of Nature then I condition with the Replenishing conditioner. I also comb my hair using a wide tooth comb. Then Rinse. I also deep condition once a week as well. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">I towel blot my hair, then I apply the Giovanni Conditioner, I use this as a leave in conditioner as I am not impressed with this conditioner for a regular conditioner, it is too lite for my hair and my hair needs more moisture than what this product provides. But it is an awesome leave in! </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Then I apply the olive oil moisturizer all over raking it through my hair, then I use a dime size of the bronner bros hair oil, this seals all the moisture in my hair. Then I apply the gel and mix it with the vegetable glycerin while applying. (I find the glycerin helps me apply the gel evenly and it helps keep my hair soft)</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">I know this sounds like a lot, but it only takes me like 10min or less with the thickness and length of my hair.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">I would like to try to mix all of the products and see what type of hair product I get...and can use it in one step. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">I leave conditioner in my hair, use a moisturizer, apply the gel in and let it air dry. Super easy wash & go style for the summer. </span></span><br />

</div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">The Clearance Center at Beauty Brands has been pretty good to me lately. A few months ago I found a Denman brush for like $4 (Regular $15) and this month I found CHI flat irons for only $65!! This is a great bargain since this model goes for $95! </span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">I bought a bright coral MAC lipstick this Sunday, it's called Vegas Volt. It is super coral, I like it because I can mix it and make it bright with pink lipgloss or mute it with a little nude lipstick. MAC Vegas Volt Lipstick $14.00</span></span><br />
