Anyone who knows me knows that I LOVE hair, I LOVE makeup and I LOVE taking care of myself. I don't know where this obsession began because I was kind of a tom boy growing up. I guess that can happen when you have three brothers and no sisters. But the great thing about that is I love sports (especially basketball) and I love to look pretty and take care of myself. For this blog post I have decided to share some of my favorite products that I use often. Here ya go...

#1 Bed Head: After-Party. Love it. This is such a great product. It is great for smoothing your hair and providing heat protection, which is very important when you are trying to keep your hair healthy. It smells yummy like all of the Bed Head products. This is just a great simple product that I like to use when I am styling my hair.
#2 Clinque: Perfectly Real Makeup. This is my favorite full coverage foundation. I don't use it all over my face unless I want a more flawless look. It goes on smooth and I seriously only have to buy it every three months because I don't use it all over my face. I usually use it on my problem areas like under my eyes for more coverage. It last all day and doesn't leave my face feeling yucky like some foundations can. I recommend going to Macy's and getting your skin tone matched if you want a great foundation.
#3 TIGI: Rockaholic: Don't feel like washing your hair everyday like me? Then this is for you! This is my favorite dry shampoo. It smells fresh and works great.
*4 Justin Bieber: Someday: Don't judge. I am addicted to the smell of this perfume. It took a while for me to save up for it so I would periodically go to the mall so I could spray this perfume on me. I don't know what it is that I like but it is def one of my favorites. I has a sweeter smell which is just what I like. Check it out, you might be surprised and like it too!
#5 Hempz: Citrus Blossom Lotion: I have been a fan of Hempz products for a long time. I won a huge $500 dollar package of their products at a hair show 5 years ago. After being able to try all their wonderful products I became hooked on their products. Their lotion smells great and it moisturizes amazingly.
#6 Bare Minerals: Bare Minerals is my main foundation. I can use it for light coverage and a more flawless coverage. It doesn't go on heavy or look powdery and it last for month. The awesome thing about Bare Minerals is that it gives the skin a nice and natural glow. It also has an excellent UVA and UVB protection which is a most.
#7 Kenra: Volume Spray: This is the best hairspray hands down. I have never had a hairspray that lasted so long and didn't give that crunchy look. It has an all day hold and smells really good.
#8 Moroccan Oil: Treatment: I AM IN LOVE WITH MOROCCAN OIL. This would be my most favorite hair product right now...and I am hard to convince when a product claims to do all these amazing things but this one does! Moroccan Oil is so great because of the main ingredient, Argan Oil. Argan oil is extracted from kernals of Argan tress that grow in Morocco. Some of the perks of Moroccan Oil are that it is rich in Vitamin E and fatty acids, and it protects your hair from UV and heat. Already awesome in my book. PLUS, it cuts my blow dry time in half. Which is not only awesome in the morning but when I am drying a clients hair. When you use Moroccan Oil you WILL see smoother, shinier, and softer hair. It keeps your hair so healthy and that is important when you are trying to grow your hair out or just want it to look great. Overall this product is amazing for the hair and though it is on the higher end of cost it is totally worth it!
#9 Hempz: So Bronze: Here is another great product from Hempz! This is my go to on Sunday morning when I am wearing a dress. It is a great self-tanner that works immediately and gets darker throughout the day. It doesn't have an orange tint, which is a must! I wouldn't say I love it more than my Fake Bake airbrush but it doesn't leave a mess in the bathroom. A great product for you white girls like me that don't tan easy.
#10 It's A 10: Miracle Leave-In: This is one of my go to products. It is great for detangling your hair and protecting your hair from damage. It does 10 things: Repairs dry/damaged hair, adds shine, detangles, controls frizz, seal/protects hair, prevents split ends, stops hair breakage, creates silkiness, enhances natural body, flat iron/heat protectent. It is pretty much awesome and a great investment.
So there you have it, some of my favorite products. Hopefully you have learned a little something and might want to try some of my favorite products!
