Natural Hair: Pumpkin Bun

If you've been natural for awhile, you know that there are more than a few days that we fall into 'styling' ruts!  Mine usually come during the colder months when I still wanna be cute, but have to take into account protective styling (cold weather is brutal on kinkier textures like mine).  I came across this video on youtube and I think it's a MUST try and it seems pretty simple to do.  Although, I don't think my hair will french roll all that easily like hers did.  My hair is muey rebellious...lol  I'm still gonna try.  Very nice for the upcoming holidays.

Tried True and Reviewed - Yes To Cucumbers Facial Towelettes

What is it?

Yes To Cucumbers Hypoallergenic Facial Towelettes gently remove dirt, sweat and makeup (eye makeup too!) without the need to rinse. Whether you're out and about, going for a run, or having a late night, these towelettes make it a snap to refresh on-the-go. Packed with green superfoods these all-natural, biodegradable towelettes naturally exfoliate, detoxify, and rejuvenate all-in-one. Stay gorgeous, and go from zero to clean in seconds!

BB's Review

Pro: Natural/Organic, soothing, these wipes remain moist till the very last one, priced at $5.99, can be found in local drugstores, can reapply makeup with no issues

Con: You need about two wipes to remove all your makeup

Would I buy again: HECK YEAH!  The price is amazing and y'all should know how I feel about natural and organic beauty items

Alternative: Korres also has natural wipes in their brand, but they are more expensive and dry out fairly quickly

How many stars? 4 out of 5 stars

Comments: I'm still pretty dedicated to MAC's make-up remover wipes, but from all the other brands I've tried (and there have been many), YTC comes in a close second.  Both brands will remain in rotation in my beauty bag.  Sadly, I just can't shake MAC's wipes.

 

P.S. I'll be doing more reviews in the future.  I've been sent many items and have been picking up things here and there.  It's about time, don't ya think?

Tracee Ellis Ross - Fashion for Reed Between The Lines

I came across this video of Tracee Ellis Ross taking us inside the closet of her character in her new show, Reed Between the Lines.  I absolutely ADORE Tracee's style!  She is one my fashion icons, if not my favorite.

On another note, what are we thinking about the show? I've been watching it faithfully and it had me laughing in a couple episodes.  I think it needs a bit of tweaking, but I really want it to do well.

What I Wore - Outfit of The Day

For some reason, this outfit looked better in my head than they do in pictures? Oh well. These jeans were a SCORE from Anthropologie. Jeans I had been stalking for months, but what's new...lol.  Originally they were $198 and I got them for...........$19!  You can't see it but they are actually high-waist, bell-bottom jeans.  I had to hem them because I thought they were too long. I think I will pull it out because I think NOW, they are too short??

Top: Vintage/Thrift, Jeans: Adriano Goldschmied Farrah Jeans, Shoes: Lucky Brand, Hat: c/o Daffy's
