I got what you want...

This is how my flat iron looks like. There are different ones but this got the tourmaline plates which is supposedly better and leaves your hair even more silky smooth...

Best purchase ever!

Been a while since I came in here. Haven't even crossed my mind, but anyways.... I purchased this great flat iron this weekend. Its the best ever, considering my hair only stays flat with lots of chemicals which in the end leaves it dry and brittle.

You know those stands at the mall where they ask if they can straighten your hair with their flattening iron. The one I'm talking about is called, Cortex. That is the one I got, but for only 1/8 of the price at the mall. At the mall it cost 220 dollars plus tax, and at Winners where I got it, it is only 35 dollar plus tax. My best buy ever, only thing I don't like is that the iron gets really hot and that concerns me when putting it down for it to cool off, but so far so good. I am a happy camper for sure!

For people that doesn't think it will work, trust me it works! I put it to the test this morning, by going to bed last night with wet hair and I managed to straighten it all within 10 minutes, and NO chemicals at all in my hair. My hair is frizzy and wavy and reacts to any kind of moisture that is in the air, but with Cortex it stays the way it should stay. My hair is soft and smooth and doesn't tangle up into knots either. GO AND BUY IT!

Will post a pic of the one I got later :D

Happy New Year!!!

Today is New Years Eve, a day which marks both an end and beginning. This year was quite eventful, at the beginning of the year I got engaged. And in July, I tied the knot with my beau of almost four years. Although we went to New York City in November, we don't consider that our honeymoon. We are hoping a well deserved honeymoon will occur in 2008.

Just recently I have found my way back to what I use to love, writing. I hope to fill pages and pages here in the future, and hopefully acquire new readers and friends out there.

My plans for the up and coming year are many. I am hoping to do some travelling in the beginning of the year. I also have plans of going back to studying, which sounds crazy as I begged to get out of there.

I wish everyone a Happy New Year, may it be prosperous and eventful!

Review of the Murad Mask

During the holidays I got the chance to try out that Murad mask (Exfoliating Fruit Enzyme Mask). The one I mentioned that I picked up at Sephora, while I was down in New York. Its not a mask that dries up like a mud mask, this one is a gel mask. It has a bit of a chemical peel effect, almost stings your skin. I like the result as it did leave your skin feeling smooth afterwards, and dead surface cells went away as I washed off the mask. But for those of you with sensitive skin, I would not recommend it. Otherwise a good product for those once in a while "pamper myself" moments.
