Trenched

Hey guys!!! I know its been awhile but being a new mommy takes up a lot of my time. Being a mommy is well worth it and I wouldnt trade it for nothing! Anywho with that being said I rarely put clothes on or take pics for that matter lol. Last nite was different though, I went on a movie date and took the chance to dress up! Most of the pieces were inspired by some of my fave vloggers and bloggers.

The trench coat was inspired by Garnerstyle recent trench coat post!

I picked this dress up from HM.com after seeing vlogger amandadubhere rock 

it this summer!

Here's a closeup of my FOTN. I used wetnwild vanity palette, ELF concealer and NYX Shocking Pink on my lips.

Product Review: Parnevu Organic Hair Mayonnaise

I was sent this product to review a couple of months ago.  I was definitely in the process of looking for a deep conditioner for my natural hair.  If you are natural, you know it takes a process of trial and error before you find products that work for your hair.  One of the golden rules for naturals is "Everything that works for others wont work for you!", that is especially true for my hair.

I was sent the full size 16 oz. container to review and I was able to get an ample amount of uses of the Organic Hair Mayonnaise!  I applied it to freshly washed hair and in 4 sections.  Once it was applied I let it sit for about 20-30 minutes with a towel bonnet to added for heat source.

 

 

The Hair Mayonnaise left my hair extremely moisturized and provide good slip for detangling.  After rinsing it out I placed my hair in two strand twist sealing the moisture in with coconut oil.

 

Though I am still on the hunt for a perfect deep conditioner I will still purchase this product to have as a back up plan.  It is vital that all naturals deep conditioner their hair at least twice a month.
