I have the type of hair that lays flat and also gets wavy. The one thing my hair does not have is natural volume. I was thrilled when iFABBO offered me the chance to test out Voloom’s Hair Volumizer. I was hoping this would be the device that gave me full hair.

I tested out Voloom’s Hair Volumizer on my hair. In order to use the device you have to pin up your top layer of hair. This is easy to do since Voloom provides you with clips. The idea is that you use Voloom’s Hair Volumizer on the hair under your top layer of hair. The volumizer works by separating your hairs in a checkerboard pattern which adds volume. After you add volume to your bottom and middle layers of hair, you release the clips and let your top layer of hair fall over your middle and bottom layers of hair. 

My hair is quite long and I am overdue for a haircut; so my hair has a lot of weight to it. I used Voloom as directed and did see an increase in volume I was surprised to see an increase in volume in my hair! I look forward to using Voloom every-time I want volume.

Chanel Mica Rose nail polish review

Chanel mica rose nail polish

Pictured: Chanel Mica Rose nail polish. Two coats of color, one base coat, no top coat.

Chanel Mica Rose nail polish was originally introduced in Chanel’s spring 2009 beauty collection. For the winter 2015 season, Chanel re-introduced several nail polish colors from seasons’ past; Mica Rose being one of them.

Mica Rose by Chanel is a classic, sweet pink color which is easy to wear on a daily basis. Chanel Mica Rose nail polish is also a great color for the spring 2015 season. Pale pink has been “on trend” for the past couple of years and is showing no sign of slowing down as we move into the spring 2015 season. This makes Mica Rose by Chanel an easy way to wear the light pink trend this spring season; even though the color was re-promoted for winter. 😉

I tested out Mica Rose by Chanel with two coats of color, one base coat and no top coat. The nail polish lasted six days before chipping. Love that!

Chanel Desirio nail polish spring 2015 review

Chanel Desirio nail polish spring 2015

Pictured: Chanel Desirio nail polish for spring 2015. Two coats of color, one base coat, no top coat. 

Chanel Desirio nail polish is a bright fuchsia hue from Chanel spring 2015 beauty collection. This bright fuchsia is on the dark side and can be a substitute for red this spring season. Chanel Desirio is also a good nail polish to wear with this season’s bright colors. Love it!

For spring 2015, designers are showing pastels, muted colors, true colors and brights. When it comes to color tone, there are no rules for spring! This means you can choose a color tone you love and stick with it for the season. If you love bright colors, true colors and muted hues, Chanel Desirio nail polish will work well with all of those color tones. It is also a great alternative for red this spring 2015 season if you prefer to keep your nails classic; but are tired of red after the holiday season.

I tested Chanel Desirio nail polish with two coats of color and one base coat; no top coat. The nail polish lasted for five days before chipping. I really enjoy wearing this color. It worked well with my current, winter wardrobe; and I can tell it will work well with my upcoming spring wardrobe. It is an easy color to wear and looks great day or night. Love that!

Chanel Desirio nail polish is also a good nail color for wearing from spring into summer. If you want one nail polish color to stay with through both seasons, this is the color to reach for. It’s bright nature will easily carry you through spring 2015’s color palette’s into summer 2015’s color wheel.
