What hair products do you use? : 

Shampoo and Conditioner: When it comes to shampoos and conditioners, it seems as though I've tried them all. Recently, I added blonde balayage and highlights throughout my hair. In order to extend the vibrancy of the color I have been using Redken color extend products. They leave your hair vibrant, soft and beautiful. 

Styling Products: Right now I am loving Kinactif extract energy. It smells like rose petals which I am absolutely obsessed with. It's an all in one magical product. My hair has never felt smoother. My hair has never been shinier. I have naturally thick and curly hair and it literally repels humidity. Just be sure to use a dime size amount and to apply from mid-shaft through to the ends to avoid a greasy feel near the roots.

Hair Tools: I use a Revlon blow-dryer with a concentrator attachment. The concentrator attachment is key. I cannot live without it. I use a 1 inch CHI straightening iron to both curl and straighten my hair. 

What Makeup Products do you use? 

Foundation: I am obsessed with Clinique Super Balanced in Alabaster. Other foundations I've tried in the past left a greasy layer on top of my skin. However, with Super Balanced paired with Stay Buff Matte Compressed Powder, my skin can breathe.

Blush: I absolutely LOVE Lancome Blushes but if you're looking for something a little less pricey, I've found that E.L.F works great as well.

Eyes: I use Latisse to make my eyelashes fuller. I snagged some at a company Christmas party a few years ago and my life hasn't been the same since. I am literally in love with it. I go back and forth using Lancome, Clinique, Origins and Bare Minerals eye shadows. I just love playing with different colors and combinations, so oftentimes I may be wearing one color from each brand at once!

Lips: Clinique and Lancome are my favorite. Clinique always leaves my lips feeling silky soft- never sticky. But, I am obsessed with the saturated richness of Lancome's shades.

What Skincare Products do you use?

When it comes to my skin I can't complain. I've never really had an issue with acne, dry or oily skin. Because of that, I can get away with using some cheap products in terms of cleansing and moisturizing. For the past few years I have been using Cetaphil or its generic counterparts to cleanse and then Clinique Moisture Surge to moisturize.
