Ultimate Drybar Deal

Ultimate Drybar Deal

Drybar The Single Shot Round Blow-Dryer Brush…right now (at writing) there is a special deal on this great product! If you’re looking for a premium quality, round blow-dryer brush, this could be the one! I have one of these that I use daily, but I paid a lot more than $99 for it! However, you can take advantage of a Cyber Monday Deal from Amazon now! I use this brush for adding body to my hair…wet or dry. I rarely start drying my hair immediately. I have a lot of hair, so blow drying my hair is time consuming. Therefore, I usually let it air dry while I do my makeup and get dressed. When it’s time to dry it, it’s halfway there, and I can use this blow dryer brush to smooth it and boost the roots. Regularly priced at $155, you can take advantage of a great deal now. It’s also a great gift for girls going to college next fall! Purchase one for yourself or one for someone on your holiday list here.

Get this Cyber Monday Deal while it lasts!

I see so many people on the college parent pages asking, “Where can my child go to inflate his/her tires?” Yes, I see it all the time, but don’t get me started on the parent pages. This is a great answer to that question: in your glove box or console! It’s quick and accurate and has auto shut off when your tire reaches the desired inflation.

To see what’s offered on Amazon, click here.
  • Poo Pourri Potty Pods. I’m a fan of Poo Pourri products, the odor-trapping “before you go” brand. This year, I found their Potty Pods! They work under the same concept as their sprays, but they are in a pod form! It’s a cute, useful gift that anyone would love to find in their stocking. Get the Potty Pods at a discount (as of writing) here. I always have at least one of the travel size sprays in my handbag. To see the sprays or other Poo Pourri products, shop here
  • Makeup Eraser. These come in 7-day sets, and they work with just water to remove makeup. Sounds crazy, I know, but they work. My daughter and I both use them! We simply stick them in the mesh bag after use and at the end of a week, wash them all together in the washing machine/dryer. They are especially great for travel, because they eliminate the need for liquids in your carry-on bag! Purchase here.
  • Duncan Yoyo. Surely you remember getting a Duncan Yoyo in your stocking when you were a kid! If not, you missed out! They are good for hours of fun, and now Duncan makes more versions than ever. To shop for Duncan Yoyos, click here.

Ultimate Color Wow Gift Guide

Ultimate Color Wow Gift Guide

Someone on your lists loves haircare products? If they know about Color Wow, they want it. If they don’t know about it, it’s high time they did! The holidays are a perfect time to gift haircare products, and the recipient will love Color Wow. All these products make great stocking stuffers or great gifts! My daughter will find one of each in her Christmas stocking this year!

  • Color Wow Extra Strength Dream Coat. This has been all over the talk shows! I first saw it on Hoda & Jenna and had to try it myself after they gave rave reviews. I have curly/wavy, color-treated hair that tends to frizz in humid weather. I should add that I have a lot of hair. This product, which lasts up to three washes, is a powerful moisturizing, anti-humidity treatment for frizz prone hair. It makes my hair glassy smooth. However, a friend in the beauty business pointed out that it’s best used on coils/extremely dry hair. Mine is fairly tight, but if your hair isn’t tightly curled, you might use regular strength. I love it on mine, though. Highly recommend! Get it here.

  • Color Wow One Minute Transformation. This product is great for instant frizz control. This nourishing styling cream smoothes, tames, and defrizzes. Purchase here.

  • Color Wow Color Security Shampoo and Conditioner. Two products for one great effect. I love this shampoo and conditioner! It cleans my color-treated hair and adds shine! Because it doesn’t contain sulfates, it doesn’t strip the color from your hair. It’s a great gift for anyone on your list with color-treated hair. Get the shampoo here. And purchase the normal to thick conditioner here. Or the conditioner for thin/fragile hair here.

  • Color Wow Dreamcoat Supernatural Spray. Keep your hair frizz-free no matter what the weather. This formula helps repair moisture and humidity. Purchase here.

  • Color Wow Curl Wow Coco-motion Lubricating Conditioner. This conditioner, specially formulated for curly hair, is a weightless conditioner that instantly moisturizes deep inside strands for silky-soft, bouncy curls. Purchase here for the girl with curls!

  • Color Wow Curl Wow Hooked 100% Clean Shampoo with Root-Locking Technology. This rich-lathering sulfate-free formula leaves no residue and helps anchor hair to stop shedding. My friend in Central Florida uses this daily, and her curls are beautiful! Purchase here.

Go to Amazon and pick up some of these awesome products while they are still in stock!
