Actually Organic Argan Oil review

My hair is constantly flying away! The only way to keep my hair from being too dry, and flying all over the place, is with Argan Oil. I have tried many different brands, but have not been 100% happy due to how the product smells, or its’ inability to perform.

When Actually Organic introduced me to their Argan Oil product, I was excited! The Actually Organic Argan Oil is 100% pure argan oil, no additives! This told me the product might actually work!

I was thrilled when I received my bottle of Actually Organic Argan Oil. Of course the first thing I did was try it! The oil was not greasy at all, and was easy to apply to my hair. Since the bottle has a spray, it is simple to apply evenly throughout hair. It was nice to not have any oil smeared on my hands, only my hair! Love that!

The one thing that took me by surprise was the smell! Normally argan oil products have some sort of smell; whether it is added fragrance or from the ingredients themselves. I tried really hard to find the smell of Actually Organic Argan Oil. I smelled my hair, the bottle, my hands; only to discover I could not smell it. That’s right! There is no scent AT ALL as far as my nose can tell. It is 100% odorless to me. I was shocked!

As someone who loves to wear perfume or scented lotion, I am always annoyed when my hair products have a fragrance which competes with my scent of the day. Actually Organic Argan oil has absolutely no smell to me, this means I can apply it liberally throughout my hair and not worry about it competing with my perfume. Love that!

The verdict: Actually Organic Argan Oil gave my hair the right amount of oil it needs to not be dry. It does not leave my hair greasy or dirty looking. My hair looks clean and smooth. Without a detectable scent, Actually Organic Argan Oil is easy to wear daily since it does not compete with my perfume of the day. Love that! I am rating it five out of five stars!

Wondering how to wear a sequin jacket during the day for a casual event? Or maybe you have a casual party on New Years Eve and are wondering how to style a sequin jacket for New Years Eve? Well I struggled with these questions too!

I have an all-black outfit I planned to wear with this sequin jacket from Tart Collections. When the jacket arrived, I quickly went to my closet to try the outfit on together, only to find my weight gain sized me out of my black outfit! The shame! So then I decided I had to find a way to style this sequin jacket for my upcoming holiday parties. Plus, I needed a casual New Years Eve outfit idea, so this sequin jacket would be perfect!

Pairing this Tart Collections sequin jacket with loose, distressed, straight-leg jeans worked out perfectly! I love the edgy-glam look for a casual New Years Eve party, or any daytime activity. This is a great girl’s brunch outfit idea too! For New Years Eve, I plan to wear this exact outfit but I will switch out the daytime handbag for this cute little number by Valentino. You can see it styled here.

Chanel spring 2017 nail polish collection review

The Chanel spring 2017 nail polish collection is here! This year Chanel has taken an edgy yet classic approach to nail polish. The spring 2017 nail polish collection includes a pale, pinkish-beige color named “Beige Beige,” a clear, pearly white hue named “Blanc White,” and an avant-garde top coat with a black tinge named “Black Metamorphosis.”

Blanc White, and Beige Beige, are both part of the Longwear nail colour collection, while Black Metamorphosis is a sheer, color-tinged top coat. Here they are!

Chanel Beige Beige nail polish spring 2017

Chanel Beige Beige nail polish for spring 2017 is my favorite color from the collection. This is a sweet, pinkish-beige hue which is easy to wear daily. It is also a classic, spring color which captures the vibe of the season.

I used one base coat, and two coats of color with Beige Beige by Chanel. It is a cream polish, and with the second coat, did not show any streaks. Very pretty color!

Chanel Blanc White nail polish spring 2017

Chanel Blanc White nail polish is a soft, sheer, pearly white hue which is a great neutral for the spring season. Although I am wearing Blanc White by Chanel on my hands at the moment, when sandal weather comes around, I plan to wear this color on my toes and go darker on my fingers.

I used one base coat, and two coats of color-no streaks! If you are looking for a clean looking color which is classic and easy to wear this spring, Blanc White is your hue!

Chanel Black Metamorphosis Top Coat nail polish spring 2017

There is always at least one color in Chanel’s seasonal nail polish collections which is new and exciting. Black Metamorphosis top coat is that color. It can take a sweet polish such as Beige Beige, or an understated hue such as Blanc White, and transform them into something avant-garde.

Black Metamorphosis top coat by Chanel is shown in this photo with three coats over Beige Beige. Topping Beige Beige off with Black Metamorphosis gave it a slightly pinkish undertone, causing the sheer black hue to take on a brownish-black vibe,

Did you catch that I used three coats? Ah yes, this top coat will streak like crazy if you are not careful! Also, it does not apply evenly, so the streaks are extremely pronounced with fewer coats. It is up to you how you want to wear Chanel Black Metamorphosis top coat. You can wear one coat, which shows off the underneath color the most, and leaves a heavily streaky coat on top, or you can tone the streaks down with two coats.

I prefer to see more of the top coat, then the color underneath, so I applied a third coat. Streaks drive me crazy, so I had to keep applying it until I felt it was as non-streaky as possible; without compromising the effect of allowing the underneath color to show through just a little bit. 😉

The pinkish-brownish-charcoalish-blackish result of three coats of Black Metamorphosis over Beige Beige turned out to be a color I really love for spring. It is a little edgy, a little bit different, and a new way of looking at creating color on my nails. Love that!

The spring 2017 nail polish collection by Chanel is a cross between classic and sweet, and edgy and modern. Love! You can find the Chanel spring 2017 nail polish collection online here and online here. It is limited edition, as always, so the popular colors will sell fast. If you like one or more of these colors, snap them up now while you can!
