Tree Hut Shea Sugar Body Scrub

Tree Hut Shea Sugar Body Scrub has changed my LIFE!!!!

While "attempting" to buy one thing at Walmart (which never happens), I came across this body scrub that smelled AMAZING! It was the Almond & Honey Shea Sugar Body Scrub and also the Body Butter. The sugar scrub is infused with certified organic Shea butter, real Honey and an array of natural oils which include Evening Primrose, sweet Almond Avocado, Macadamia Seed and Orange Oil. The body scrub buffs away dead skin cells, leaving your skin smooth.

I used it in the shower then applied the Almond & Honey Body Butter on my skin and wow, my skin was so soft. I kept touching my arms lol! This stuff really works and the best part about this scrub is that it improves complexion and retains natural sheen. It's also a deep moisturizer. You all have to try this! Guaranteed to make your skin feel so fresh and smooth. The body scrub was $5.88 and the body butter was $4.88. Not too expensive. Don't worry guys, this was not tested on animals so enjoy!!!! My NEW favorite product :-)

We Love E.L.F.

E.L.F. (Eyes, Lips, Face) has everything you could imagine when it comes to cosmetics at an affordable price. I fell in love with E.L.F. a year ago and recommended this line to all of my friends. I've tried a number of their products including their makeup brushes, brush cleaners, cream eyeliners and much more. Prices range from $1 up to $20 which is awesome! I purchased a small angled brush for $1.00 to use for my cream eyeliner and I LOVE it!!! I loved it so much, I purchased 5 of them! You can purchase this brand at your local Target stores, Walmart, your local grocery store (at least the grocery stores in Minneapolis) and a few other places. Below are a few of my most favorite products from E.L.F. and what they do:

Brush Shampoo: Anti-bacterial brush cleanser for thorough cleaning in-between makeup applications. Washes away all traces of dirt, makeup, oil and debris from your brush while conditioning the hair to provide a clean and soft application for every use.

Daily Brush Cleaner: An anti-bacterial daily brush cleanser for cleaning in between makeup applications. After using your brush, spray several times on your brushes, wipe off with a cleansing cloth and let air dry.

Cream Eyeliner: Use an eyeliner brush or small angled brush and add cream eyeliner to it.  Apply to the eyelid.

Lip Primer and Plumper: The primer is applied to make your lipstick look brighter and the plumper simply makes your lips look fuller.

Eye Primer and Line Sealer: Eye primer is applied to your eyelid before you add eyeshadow to make your eyeshadow"pop" and the liner sealer transforms your favorite eyeshadow into a waterproof, smudge proof liquid liner with this unique clear liquid and built in felt tip precision eyeliner brush.

Under Eye Concealer and Highlighter: Contains vitamins A&E, Chamomile, Caffeine and Green Tea to moisturize, soothe and tighten the skin around the delicate eye area.

Nature Made Biotin for Hair Skin and Nails

Good Afternoon!

The Natural Hair girls will know what Biotin is but for those who don't, Biotin is a dietary suppliment that promotes healthy hair, skin and nails. It is very important for this suppliment to be apart of your every day life.

I purchased this bottle of Nature Made Biotin at my local Target store for about $8.49 (don't quote me....I don't remember the exact price but I know it was $8.00+). Before purchasing, I did do some research on Biotin and the brand itself. The only negative I heard from some people was that their hair did not grow. Biotin is not supposed to promote hair growth, it's supposed to make your hair healthier and thicker......which it has done in my case. I started taking Nature Made Biotin back in October 2012. Within a week, I noticed that my hair was real shiny. Not dull like it used to be. A few months went by and I noticed my hair was much thicker and not breaking off as much as it used to. My skin was not as oily either. I have oily skin (my face) and taking the biotin helped. One downside of the product is that it did not promote nail growth. My nails are still breaking off......but I wouldn't discontinue using the product just because of that. Looking at the reviews, I see tons of people noticed that their nails were longer and stronger.

The size of the pill is really tiny. Like the size of a pea. It's easy to swallow and there is no foul taste to it. It's a liquid gel with no side effects. I would definitely recommend biotin to anyone who is looking to see a change in their hair, skin and nails. I am one satisfied customer and if you do your research, you'll see that there are several other satisfied customers as well.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask! I'm here to help :-)
