Giveaway Break - Aveda Light Elements

Aveda has two new styling products out, Light Elements Texturizing Cream and Shaping Wax.

Aveda's Light Elements Texturizing Creme is a weightless creme that provides texture with a light hold. This styling finisher provides soft movement without a crunchy, stick or dry feeling, while nourishing hair. It also helps protect hair from UV damage.

Aveda's Light Elements Shaping Wax delivers weighless texture with a firm, pliable hold. This innovative styling finisher enables hair to be easily shaped and reshaped, providing strong yet pliable hold and control throughout the day. This wax also helps protect hair from UV rays.

The aroma is a fresh and spicy citrus aroma with certified organic essential oils of grapefruit, mandarin, ginger, cinnamon and a woodsy notes of sustainably sourced Australian sandalwood. Like all Aveda products, I'm sure it smells ridiculously good.

Giveaway Break - Dove Visibly Smooth

I'm really enjoying Dove Visibly Smooth in Wild Rose. I've also heard nothing but good things from my friends as well.

I had this deodorant on over the weekend, and while at yoga class, I could smell it during different poses - it was so nice! It's not an overbearing scent, but just enough of a perfume scent to make it enjoyable to smell during the downward facing dog pose :)

Dove Girl's Night Out

Last Friday was Lipgloss Break's Dove Night Out Event, themed 'A Black Top Affair.' The day started off snowy...the roads were horrible here in Michigan. But have no fear, a little snow didn't keep us from having a great time! There were 10 of us girls that got together for wine tasting and h'orderves, music and a little dancing (specifically fist pumping, see video below).

I purchased a variety of wines from Main Street Cheese Market in downtown Brighton, along with painted glasses for all the girls to drink in style. We snacked on mini pinwheel sandwiches, cheeses, dips and breads. We sang happy birthday to the birthday girls and shared cake and desserts. We put on some good dance music, gossiped, and of course, topped off the bottles of wine by the end of the night.

I want to thank Dove for sponsoring a wonderful night to help promote their new deodorant, Dove Visibly Smooth. We all received a sample in the Wild Rose scent, which is wonderful! Like a light perfume, it smells like a sweet floral bouquet, but it's not overbearing. I've heard nothing but great reviews so far from my friends. Enjoy the below video, including close ups of our food, drinks and fist pumping.







To participate in the Dove Visibly Smooth VIP program, I was provided with five (5) product samples to giveaway on my blog as well as ten (10) product samples for my guests, car service and compensation for dinner out with my friends. Dove provided me with these items so I could organize the event myself and without any influence from Dove.

Zoe Saldana's Oscar Style with TRESemmé


TRESemmé Celebrity Stylist Mara Roszak has provided simple how-to’s on how to get Zoe’s super-chic up-do:
“We wanted to to have an editorial look because she was wearing Givenchy. We also didn't want the hair and make up to compete with the dress so we created an elegant but effortless look.”

  1. Apply TRESemmé Naturals Lightweight Mousse all over damp hair and blow dry away from the face with volume, flipping head upside down when the hair is almost dry to finish.
  2. Separate the crown from the rest of the hair and pull back sides and back into a tight ponytail. Pull the hair almost all the way through, leaving the ends tucked into the pony tail holder to create a half bun shape. Let a few pieces in the back fall out for a messier look.
  3. Tease the top of the hair, pull back to meet the back and pin, criss-crossing the bobby pins for a secure hold. Spray all over with TRESemmé TRES TWO Extra Hold Hair Spray.
  4. My Stylist Secret: Spray hairspray on finger tips and gently pull the hair around the face with your fingers to loosen the hair, giving it an organic effortless look.
