My beauty necessities

Show Us Your Life is all about beauty tips on Kellys Korner, so here are my beauty necessities:

My Hair: I use Biolage Hydratherapie Shampoo and Biolage Conditioning Balm. I have tried to use some cheaper shampoo, but I'm hooked. This stuff does the best on my hair! After showering, I use an AMAZING microfiber head wrap that my mom got me a long time ago at Bed, Bath, and Beyond. I.LOVE.IT. I even take it with me when I travel. It soaks up so much water, but not too much to make my hair dry and frizzy before I blow dry it. I highly recommend it! :) Before blow-drying, I use Aquage Straightening Ultra-Gel and Chi Volume Booster in a red spray bottle (it smells so good!). Blow-dry, then straighten with a Chi Straightener. Then, this...
This pin comb is AWE.SOME! It's expensive, but SO good for teasing. My hairdresser, Tracie, has one and uses it on my hair and it works so good. So I asked for it for my birthday in December and got it! (Thanks Mom!) Then I use Aquage hairspray.

Skin Care: Honestly, I'm terrible about washing my face and all that. I go to bed with make-up on, then go workout in the morning, then shower afterwards and wash my face with Neutrogena Oil-free Acne Wash. No, I don't have acne, but it's what the doctor told me to use when I was pregnant with the girl and had terrible prego acne. And I just never quit using it. Sometimes I'll wash my face at night if I shower at night. I'm bad, I know. For face moisturizer, I use Oil of Olay 7-in-1.

Make-up: A mixture of everything really. Revlon foundation, Mary Kay concealer, Clinique blush and loose face powder, Clinique and Revlon eyeshadow, Covergirl eyeliner, and Mary Kay mascara (which I just started using and I LOVE). I also just got hooked on this:

I was cleaning out my kids closet the other day and found this still in the package. Santa put it in my boys stocking at Christmas and so I just stole it. I love it. It has just enough color. I'm not a big lipstick girl so this is perfect.

So that's it. There's my beauty necessities. I'm not sure if they are TIPS, but it's my regimine.

I just started using Biolage Shampoo and Conditioner and so far I like it! I think I may need to get me one of those hair wraps :)
