Beach Bag Essentials

Hey its almost beach weather here in Canada, and I'm super duper excited to hit the beach in teeny tiny bikinis, fab hair and golden tan.

So I wanted to put together a list of my Beach bag Essentials!

SUNSCREEN! you can leave EVERY other item at home except this, you SHOULDNT EVER leave the house without sun screen, but your beach bag should have lots.

If you're going to hit the beach, make sure you pack your sexiest most flattering Bikini in the bag, you're going to be at the beach, not a Friends Pool.  Don't forget a cover up :D

Accessories! I think it's safe to say some beach friendly accessories make you look more glam and give your swimsuit a touch of individuality. So pack in your cute flip flops, and a sexy belly ring or a body chain. Even a necklace is sexy!

Avoid the uneven skin by tanning yourself a few days in advance. I suggest a sexy spray tan or a self-tanner, because SUN BEDS ARE NOT SEXY! This will hide embarrassing uneven skin, and give you a sexy bronzed skin.

Unless you wanna air dry and be cold, don't forget your beach towel.

You're going to be squinting all day girlies, don't leave your glasses at home.

You're surrounded by water but you need your own bottle of clean fresh water, maybe with even a little swish of Lemon. You need to stay hydrated, and refresh yourself with delicious lemon water.

Avoid the makeup and carrying tons and tons of products, go with a tinted moisturizer, waterproof liner and mascara, blush/lip stain. * a little powder if you are oily*

Hot Celebrities that need to go Brunette

Kate Upton
This blonde bombshell has claimed to fame as the voluptuous unorthodox model. Kate is very girl next door, blonde babe and shes pretty much a baywatch babe! But as a model, she needs to change it up too. A Brunette hue will give the babe a more demure look, which will take away some of her cookie cutter beach bunny appeal.

Ashley Olsen
Ashley has been a brunette before, but as a busy fashion designer and business owner, She doesn't have much time. Blonde locks need more care and help when it comes to the color department, its pretty easy for blonde to look dirty and unkept. Ashleys stunning Brunette hair not only brings focus to her sexy eyes but makes her look sexy. Go brunette Ashley!

Taylor Swift
Taylor is a huge celeb, and shes the typical country singer; Blonde hair, Blue eyes and Boy crazy! Taylor needs to jazz it up a bit, with her love life going in the blender, I think she should go for a more dramatic change! She looks great with brown hair on SNL, and it makes her look more appealing to me.

Carrie Underwood
American Idol success Carrie should really consider going brunette, she has a great look. But she kind of looks like a soccer mom trying to hard at times, if she goes brunette, not only will she look edgy but a little bit more Interesting. Shes one of the good looking girls, i dont find attractive.

Jennifer Aniston
Seriously Jenn have you ever considered changing up your hair do!! How about some color. Those silky bombshell blonde hair is great, but you're getting a little old..go darker, you'll look more age appropriate...Try a lustrous ash brown. Maybe Brad prefers Brunettes.

Hayden P

Hayden always looks sun kissed and glowing, shes super cute and blonde is great for her, but I do see her eyes always being skipped by my eyes. She has stunning peepers so why not go darker and put more focus on her golden skin and piercing eyes. 

Tara Reid

I always thought Tara was absolutely gorgeous, she has the cutest face! the first movie i saw her was in Urban Legend..I thought she was so pretty, I wanted to be just like her! *just not slutty* Tara came a long way from the beach blonde babe, she really needs to clean up her act and get it together! Start off by ditching the booze and wearing proper clothing. Then throw in some brunette dye and you'll get a whole new Tara ready to book new roles. Moneys draining girl!

 Amanda Bynes
How hot does Amanda look with brown hair, I think blondes a great color for her, heck she looks good with red hair to, but Brown makes her eyes look sexier and her skin look more golden. Rock the brown mandy and ditch the Platinum.

How hot does Jennifer Lawrence look with long brown hair, its so shinny and sexy. It makes her features look more prominent and her gorgeous skin looks golden. Seriously Jen go brunette!

Co-Wash Plan

With all the healthy hair posts that I've done, I've come to a realization that it takes a lot more than a healthy hair routine for you to get sexy naturally healthy hair.

I've been a die hard blow dryer lately, and its made me realize the error of my ways.

Recently, I noticed how disgusting and unclean my hair looked, it was sticky and unmanageable, and although I did neglect my own advice and healthy hair routine and treatments, I think it's safe to say my diet and stress is playing a huge role in it as well. I've been wanting to Co-Wash for quite sometime, I always read about it and people boasted about their sexy silky strands, and even youtubers with gorgeous hair.

Till now I thought Co-Wash is for Black girls, that had kinky dry hair, but I was corrected.


After careful research and analyzing my own personal hair needs, I think I'm ready to began my hair journey.

Step 1:
No matter what you do, you're diet and lifestyle plays a huge role in what you look like, so skip the burgers and opt for a delicious healthy shawarma and plain water.Take your vitamins

Step 2:
Analyze your hair, if you're hair is normal, you might not need to go hard like us Dry-ladies. My hair is super dry, and I've been giving myself anxiety because I think I have bubble hair and I know i  have crinkle damage. With all those sexy curls I rocked all of 2012, it's safe to say I'm going to Hair Hell.

Step 3
This is the main step....The Plan..alter this according to your hair.

The Plan

Tips:
Avoid styling tools
Avoid Silicone
Sleep with a light braid
Use a hair dry turban
Don't tie your hair when wet
use a Wide Tooth comb
Keep a hair log, this will help you keep track of everything. You can always go back and alter the plan to see what works for you better and what didnt. 
Color treated girlies try a Protien filler with deep conditioner right after before you do any of these steps..give your hair about 2-3 weeks before starting this.

Day 1

1. Apply coconut oil mixed with Honey to your hair and leave it on for atleast 3 hours. This will soften the blow from the next step.
2. Use your favorite Clarifying Shampoo (Neutrogena makes a great one, but I'm currently using Garnier pure clean) * Rinse and Repeat*  - This will make your hair DRY as a fucking bone..Don't you worry though. 
3. Apply a thin layer of olive oil from root to tip..if your hair is really dry like mine, Put on a deep conditioner mixed with some of your favorite oil *Except coconut*, try to use one that does NOT contain any silicone. Leave it on for 30+ minutes with a shower cap over your head.
4. Put some almond oil or olive oil to your ends to protect them. 

Next wash (should be within 3-5 days)

1. No more Shampoo for you, so instead of rinsing your hair out with  shampoo, steep some green tea and let it cool. Rinse your hair out with green tea, letting it sit in your hair for 3-4 minutes. Massage your scalp gently to promote blood flow. Skip this step if you want to, but I think it maintains the cleanliness
2. Apply your conditioner and leave it on for 3-4 minutes and wash it off as you would. I wouldn't apply it to the roots, because it can cause buildup.. Opt for a silicone free one.
3. Apply oil to the ends to protect them

 Next wash (3-5 days)

1. Analyze your hair, is your hair really dry, or feels really unclean. 
2. Repeat previous step if you're hair is still feeling somewhat dry or really dry
3. Otherwise take about a spray bottle and mix 1 part Apple cider vinegar and 1.5 part water (preferably distilled) and spray your hair. leave it on your hair...Let it dry and condition as usual
4.  If you HAVE to and you're hair looks like KFC fried chicken , take a quarter size shampoo with no sulfate *Macadamia Oil has a great one* and wash ONLY your roots with it. let the product run through your hair. Skip the conditioner, opt for just oil around the ends..

Repeat till you hit the 2 week mark..
If your hair is doing well with this continue on..whenever you feel like its had too much build up and you just want a squeeky clean, restart from day 1.

Get rid of your Pimple/Ingrown Instantly

We all get those random horrible zits at the worst times, and while most of us let time heal it away, I almost always prefer to pop it. Why? Because i don't really get a lot of pimples, maybe one pimple every 2-3 months. My skin is super dry, and when I neglect removing my makeup due to hangover or just plain falling asleep, my skin punishes me with a pimple.

There are steps you can take to ensure when you pop your pimple, its safe, clean and painless

1. Wash your tweezers/needle with anti-bacterial soap...I recommend even dipping it in alcohol.
2. Wash your face with a facewash that has tea tree oil in it.
3. Use your tweezers to pick the "peak" of the pimple..make sure NOT to grab the whole pimple or a chunk..
   
   
   
   
4. Use your fingers to squeeze the pimple..this step is so important, a lot of people think its disgusting and for go it. This will help drain the fluids and maybe a dot of blood.
   
   
5. Wipe your pimple with tea tree oil or an all natural astringent like Witch Hazel. I tend to clean my pimple with witch hazel every few hours, but this step is entirely up to you
6. Do these steps at night, so your skin has time to relax and heal.
7. Wash your face in the morning and apply witch hazel to the area
8. make sure you only do this to one or two pimples, that are far apart. you can't pop your whole cheeks.
9. Avoid makeup on the pimple for atleast 3-5 hours.
10. you might have to redo the steps, just wait 6-7 hours before "repopping"
11. This works just as well on In grown hair as well

What if you don't want to pop it, and you're looking for a much more gentler approach?

Rub a regular bar of anti-bacterial soap on your pimple..make sure the area is dry. Keep rubbing the soap without washing away as much as you can. The soap is extremely drying, which in turn will dry out your pimple!

Pre-Poo (Dry, damaged, colored hair)

Hey guys,

I've been looking for a great way to restore tons of moisture back into my hair, as i recently dyed it from lighter brown to blue black. I could feel my hair drying up more and more thanks to the winter weather and my neglect of at home all natural hair treatments!

I decided to research a little and found that what I've been doing for years, is actually a great way to moisturize and prevent Damage. It's called Pre-Poo ! ! !

It's huge in the black people community, as their hair is very easily damaged and super dry. So the sistas did me a favor, I've already been using oils on my hair since I was a kid, and it has worked so well!


Let me share my tips and tricks on your best Pre-Poo yet.

What is Pre-Poo?
Pre-Poo is basically applying your favorite type of all natural oil ; coconut, olive, avocado, jojoba etc to your scalp and hair. You wait anywhere from 30-60 mins and then hop in the shower and go about your shampoo and conditioner routine.

Heat and Pre-Poo?
Many women use hair steamers or heat during their Pre-Poos, i personally just apply my oil and use a hair dryer periodically to let my hair really soak in the oil.

Conditioner?
You don't need to apply conditioners when you pre-Poo, but if you want the added satisfaction, go ahead and add some.

Mayo?
Go all natural and skip the conditioner..Opt for Mayo instead for a lustrous shine
 
Detangle?
use a wide tooth comb to detangle your hair




 Tips:

• Use a natural oil for better results
• skip the argaan oil bandwagon and opt for coconut oil or olive oil
• use blow dryer, because its much safer than a hair steamer and hat dryer
• Put on a plastic shower cap or bag after every blow dry
• only blow dry each section for about 3-4 seconds on high heat
• Apply conditioner after an hour of only oil
• Use a shampoo thats moisturizing as well
• Apply a few drops of olive oil after for optimal results
• Skip the blow dry and go for air dry or low heat setting...Checkout my Healthy Blow Dry Tips
• Do this Everytime you shower, and don't neglect your all natural deep conditioning hair mask
