OK, raise your hand if your hair is crazy-dry this year! My hand is waaaaaay up! If you are like me this year, you are spending the majority of your time outside. Since pretty much everything indoors is closed, with the exception of supermarkets and some stores, we have all been outside in the sun, at the pool, and at the beach. This has wreaked havoc on my hair; not to mention I have not been able to get my hair trimmed since March due to all of our salons being shut down. My hair is so dry, and in need of a haircut. Thankfully the Pureology products are saving me!

I was thrilled when Pureology sent me a PR package filled with their hair care products. I quickly found the purple bottle, the Hydrate collection, was the ideal line for my dry hair. I have been outside a lot, plus swimming in the pool more than usual. This has caused my untrimmed ends to become very dry, and close to getting brittle. I am loving the Pureology Hydrate collection because it has restored hydration to my ends, and my hair in general. While it cannot trim my hair for me, it does keep it healthy. Which is what we all need right now anyway!

I love that Pureology was created right here in California. Yay local!! In addition to being local, Pureology offers sulfate-free and vegan products which are professional quality. Salons always have the best products, and even though we cannot go to them right now, it is nice to be able to get that professional, salon quality hair care right at home. Love this!

Pureology is not only sulfate-free, and vegan, their products are made without parabens and mineral oil. This helps keep their products safer for the environment and for us, the users. Love! Plus, yes there is more, the packaging is made from 95% post consumer recycled plastic and is 100% recyclable. Love that!

OK, let me swing back around to how it hydrates my hair. Once a week I love to use the Pureology Hydrate Soft treatment. I am using this treatment after I shampoo and conditioner my hair. It really makes my hair healthy and hydrated by using key ingredients such as shea butter and sweet almond oil. It smells so good! I am addicted to this product!

On days when I don’t wash my hair, I can easily refresh it with the Pureology Refresh & Go dry shampoo. This dry shampoo works really well and doesn’t leave any white residue. It’s really awesome!

If you are not looking for hydration like me, Pureology also has a fabulous collection of strengthening and volume hair care products. I will include them in the shopping widget below. You can click on each one for more information.

The Chanel fall 2020 nail polish collection is here! Not surprisingly, the colors are simple, chic, and classic; which is a true reflection of the fall 2020 season.

Fall 2020 is all about keeping things simple and classic. This nail polish for the autumn season provides that very vibe. The pink is chic, and the red is vampy; both ideal fall colors for a classic look. Love it!

So, without further ado, let’s dig in to the fall 2020 nail polish collection from Chanel!

Chanel nail polish fall 2020 : Chanel Interdit

Chanel Interdit nail polish for the fall 2020 season is a dark and vampy red hue. It is a deep and mysterious red with dark blue undertones bordering on black. It actually reminds me of vamp! Which is interesting given that fall 2020 fashion has 1990s influences. Chanel Interdit nail polish will blend in perfectly with these vibes!

If you are a classic, red nail polish girl, this is your hue of fall 2020. Interdit by Chanel can be worn both day and night; making it fabulous for the office and a night on the town. Or, if you are still locked down like we are in California, it can make you feel like you have someplace to go.

Chanel nail polish fall 2020 : Chanel Egerie

Pink is another timeless nail polish hue. To reinvent this classic shade, Chanel is giving us Egerie for the fall 2020 season. This is a light pink nail polish color with slightly white undertones. It is more of a pale pink than one would expect for the autumn season. This makes Chanel Egerie nail polish a feminine and playful hue for the fall season. If you are still on lockdown, this is a color you can put on and not worry about if it chips. Since it is such a light color, chips won’t show easily. Love that!

Chanel lipstick fall 2020

There are more colors from Chanel in their fall 2020 lipstick collection than just Lust. But, this was the one color I was drawn to. After all, when I go out in public I am wearing a mask. This dark yet sheer color is perfect for video conferencing since it shows up without being heavy. I am a huge fan of the Rouge Coco Flash collection. The colors offer sheer color and the lipstick itself is moisturizing and long lasting. Love!

Which color is your favorite for the fall season? Chanel Interdit nail polish is my favorite hue, but I will definitely get a lot of use out of Egerie too!

Thanks for stopping by!

Elizabeth Arden Red Door Red lipstick review

wearing: lipstick c/o Elizabeth Arden in Red Door Red #2 / white and silver earrings (similar here) / black top (currently on major sale!) / blue nail polish /

How fun is this classic red hue from Elizabeth Arden?! It’s a bright and chic shade of classic red; which is a lipstick color we all need in our beauty bag. This one in particular has a special history and mission.

In 1912, Elizabeth Arden marched as a Suffragette down Fifth Avenue in New York. As a symbol of solidarity with her fellow Suffragettes, she handed out red lipstick to all the ladies. In order to celebrate Elizabeth Arden’s history of advocating for voter rights, I have partnered with Elizabeth Arden to feature this fabulous red lipstick! Loving red!

Red Door Red #2 is a classic red hue from her Beautiful Color Moisturizing Lipstick collection; which includes several fabulous hues. The lipstick itself has strong staying power, and doesn’t smudge easily. It stays put! Love that!

In addition to staying power, Elizabeth Arden’s Beautiful Color Moisturizing Lipstick doesn’t dry out lips, it does what it’s name implies; it keeps lips moisturized. Love that too! I definitely need to add a few colors from this collection to my fall beauty bag.

Shop my waist-up look online; perfect for video conference calls!

Don’t forget to vote! I don’t care if you vote red or blue, just vote! Americans have fought hard for the right to vote, so please, exercise your right as an American citizen and vote. Not everyone has the privilege to vote, so don’t take it for granted. Just vote.

Thanks for stopping by!
