Richii's Glam Palace
Check out www.richiisglampalace.com to order my new lipgloss line. It glides on smooth and is non-tacky with a fruity flavor. Try it for yourself, you will love it.
50 Cent Street King Energy Drinks
Got these in the other day and I will try them and write a review. Each bottle that you purchase feeds a hungry child so it's definitely worth it to purchase. So far they come in two flavors which are grape and orange mango which come as a 12 pack for $19.99. I purchased the grape flavor. I'm a 50 Cent fan, so I decided to get them a try.

Nail Polish
So I've decided to go back to manicures instead of damaging acrylics for a while. During my transition I have been experiencing with different nail polishes and found a few that I love on my nails. I am a hairstylist and not a nail tech so my polishing skills are average, but they work for me. I've tried some experiments to help with making my manicures last longer than one day which became too time consuming-having to change polish just about everyday to keep my nails looking nice. These are the polishes that I like along with the clear coats that I used on top.
After manicuring my nails and cleaning them really good with fingernail polish remover, I polished my nails with one coat of either of the above polishes. In the photo above I used Pure Ice Watermelon Ice. Then I placed my nails under my UV Lamp for about 4 minutes per hand. After that I applied a second coat and repeated the UV Lamp for another 4 minutes per hand. With the Watermelon Ice, I used the Hard As Wraps Gel wraps. This is my first time using this so we will see how long it lasts and I will post.
Before I was using the NYC Love Letters using the same application but as a top coat I used the Double Duty. This combination typically lasts me, about a week and a half and I have been doing my nails like this since then. I have a professional UV Lamp that I purchased from a Professional Supply Store for Cosmetologists but I'm sure Sally's may have one similar. Try it out and let me know if it works for you. Also after each top coat, I placed my hands back under the UV Lamp to cure them for another 4 mins. This is what locks everything in and really makes the polish last without chipping. Good Luck.

Doesn't work
I last blogged about the Sally Hansen's Continuous Top and Base Coat-the bottom line; it doesn't work. After 2 days, my nail polish began to chip. I tried it again just to give it a fair chance and on day 3, the polish began to chip. I would suggest getting gel nails that are cured under a UV lamp to get a lasting affect on a manicure. Next time, I will be sure to take photos. I wouldn't buy this product again.

Sally Hansen Continuous Treatment Base & Top Coat
This products is suppose to help nail color last for up to 10 days so I decided to give it a try to see if it really works. I applied the nail color last night so today is basically day two. We will see if this products does what it says. I purchased this product at walmart for about $9.00.

Wen Products 2
The last time I posted, I was trying the Wen Hair Care System. The final results/review is that I don't feel like this product actually cleanses the hair and after using the product a few times, I feel as if perhaps it's simply a conditioning system instead of a total hair care system. Would I invest in this system-probably not!!! It just didn't give me the "Wow" affect that I was expecting.

Wen Hair Products
I always try products before giving my recommendation(if not I will clearly say that I have not tried the product) so here is my 1st day trial review of the Wen Hair Care System. I've heard a lot of great things about the products and was fortunate enough to have someone gift me some of the products to try for myself to see what I thought so here we go.....!
I tried the Cleansing Conditioner for the first time today and I have to say that I'm really not "sold" on this product. In my opinion, it simply felt like I was conditioning my hair. I will even say, maybe a cholestorol conditioner because of it's thickness. I haven't used cholestorol conditioning treatments in ages!!!!(Who does that still???? LOL) Per wenhaircare.com- "It cleanses hair thoroughly but without lathering and all the harsh ingredients that may be found in ordinary shampoos—it is designed so it won't strip your hair and scalp of their natural oils." So no it doesn't lather, and I don't mind that at all, but I just do not believe it actually cleanses the hair. My hair didn't feel clean, it just felt conditioned. I think it may be a good conditioner for some......maybe someone who has extremely dry and brittle hair, I could possibly see it revitalizing it. It's only been one use so I'm going to try it a few more times as a conditioner only and give my review.
There is also a product called, Re Moist Intensive Hair Treatment which is "a concentrated treatment that helps to strengthen and repair the hair", (per the back of the container) that you are to leave on hair for 30-45 minutes, yet it actually suggests that you leave it on overnight for "maximum results". So with that being said, I have put it on my hair after using the Cleansing Conditioner and I am leaving it on overnight. I will post a review on the results tomorrow. It honestly feels like the Cleansing Conditioner in a different jar.....just my opinion. We will see.....!!!!!!
Not impressed as of yet!!! Oh and by the way, it is rather, Pricey!!!!
