IMG_9369
Hello my Bondbeautys,

It has been so long since I have posted and so much has happened that I want to share. I guess that for a later post though. Today lets get down to business with a VIBRATING Flat Iron. I know what your thinking, the products they come out with now a days are crazy! Well this one sounds funky ,but it is absolutely genius! It actually works guys, so Im bringing it to my blog and I am also doing a giveaway.

I have tried this first hand and I love it to straighten or curl my hair. (I will be showing you a tutorial at the end of how to do both)

This is the Asavea Vibe Vibrating Flat Iron Buy it Here.

*Not an affiliate Link

PROS:

  • Heats up in 60 sec
  • Vibration options which decreases the FRIZZ (I love this for when I straighten my hair)
  • Temp 325-450
  • Does not pull on my hair! AT ALL
  • Ceramic Flat Iron- Gives you consistent temperature
  • Swivel Cord So when Curling It doesn’t get tangled in your hair
  • Automatic shut off after 60 min
  • Fiberglass technology helps retain moisture to your hair
  • Affordable (is on sale right now for $49.99)
  • You can turn the vibration mode on or off
  • When vibration mode is on, it only vibrates when clamped shut!

IMG_9373

CONS:

  • NONE seriously It works so well I cant think of

4

As I have been trying this for the past couple weeks I actually prefer the Vibrating mode to be on when Im straightening my hair. The reason why is because it completely eliminates frizz and smooths my hair to the point that It even looks like I put anti frizz product in it when I didn’t.  Whenever I curl my hair I don’t use the vibrating mode.

5So I will be showing you how I straighten and Curl my hair in the video below. I honestly do think that this flat iron is amazing and worth a try. I recommend it 100%!

I have another surprise for you first, I’m doing a giveaway! Asavea was so kind to host a giveaway , absolutely free, all you need to do to enter is click here .

Its open until Feb 11, 2018 I will be announcing the winner in the description box of my video below. I will also be emailing you personally so make sure to check your spam folders!!

So I hope you guys enjoy the tutorial and Good luck!

Hanna Marin Hairstyles from Pretty Little Liars |Asavea

6 / 12 / 176 / 12 / 17

PicMonkey Image copy 2

Hello my Bondbeautys,

I know its been such a long time, but I promise I’m back and all my technical problems are behind me. So I know what the question is that you probably have.. What have I been doing? Well I’m glad you ask I have been binge watching Pretty Little Liars. I am not kidding in no way shape or form. I have grown rather obsessed with the show. If you haven’t watched it let me fill you in on the plot.  Basically in a small town full of secrets where a group of 5 girls keep lots of secrets. One day one of the girls goes missing and a year later is found dead. The whole question is who killed her? and why do the other 4 girls keep getting texts from a person named A. Honestly it has kept my husband and I on our toes.

So what does that have to do with today? Well in Season 3 ,Hanna Marin, A character from the show cuts her hair and has some beautiful hairstyles for short hair. Some of which I want to recreate and show you how to do.

IMG_7833

Not only do I want to show you these hairstyles, but I also partnered up with Asavea * To bring to you todays video & blog post. They recently launched a new Hairstyling tool and you guys seemed to really love it when I shared  their  hairstyling straightener brush. So I thought I would also share this beautiful Gold Titanium Hair Curling Wand.

(* This video & post is sponsored, so I do receive compensation for sharing this product with you. But all my opinions are honest and I truly do love this Hair Curler and recommend it.)

IMG_8027

So think of this as a review & hair tutorial in one! Also stay tuned to the very end because, just like with the Straightening brush post, I will be GIVING ONE of these AWAY.

In the video below I will be showing you how to do this textured, curly, messy Lob hairstyle. This is a iconic Hanna Marin Hairstyle. She rocks this textured lob more than any other hairstyle.

IMG_7795-2

This was so easy to do and surprisingly quick. I used the Spiral Barrel to achieve it and I love how it turned out. What I love most about this hairstyle is that you can really dress it up or down just by adding more texture and breaking it up more with your fingers.

IMG_7815

So here are some of the Asavea Hair curler Pros:

  • The Gold & Ceramic material help to keep your frizz under complete control
  • It heats up quickly and cools down quickly
  • Your hairstyle lasts longer than other curlers (or at least it did for me, It lasted me 3 days and I didn’t have to recurl my hair at All!)
  • Its beautiful! I know you love the GOLD!
  • It has a Swivel Cord so Its easy to use without the cord getting caught or in the way.
  • The controls are easy to use and you can decided how hot you want the curler to be.

The Second hairstyle I did is a messy, easy undo.  I like to do this on day three when my curls are still intact but maybe not as voluminous and I feel like putting my hair up. All you need for this hairstyle is a teasing comb & some bobby pins.

IMG_7936

I love this because you can again make it as messy or as formal as you want. Its perfect for short hair because the braided back keeps all those little short layered hairs into place without bobby pins.

IMG_7946

Ok ok, pictures are nice but lets see how to actually accomplish this. I promise it looks like I spent a lot of time doing this hairstyle but I really didn’t!

So lets talk about the GIVEAWAY:

  • Click Here to Enter
  • Will Be open until JULY 1st
  • The winner will be chosen at Random , so share with your family & friends! Everyone has an Equal chance to win!
  • I will announce the Winner here, and in the Description of my Video!
  • I will also try to Email or Message you!

Lady Gaga Super Bowl 2017 Makeup Tutorial

3 / 12 / 173 / 12 / 17

1-2

Hello my Bondbeautys,

I have missed you guys! I know I have been gone a while so sorry, life has twisted and turned on me. But here we are I am back and happy to be here.  I wanted to do a fun post for you guys since I haven’t done on in so long. I know all of you watched the Super Bowl or at least the half time show. Lady Gaga performed and she came out with a strong makeup look. I wanted to recreate this mainly because it was requested on my Instagram, but also because it is unique and fun.

10

So I went ahead and recreated it for you but I added my little twist to it. Instead of Red Gems I did pink, also I didn’t add the netting like she had. Her whole eye , gem & Black outline was actually a sticker. Because I did mine by hand I left out the netting through out the gems. Either way hers looked gorgeous and I think I did it justice. So I have a full video tutorial for you below, also I shared my edited Instagram Ready Pictures and I would love for you to vote in the comments and tell me which of all these pictures in this post you love best!

8Products:

  • Dermacol Foundation 221
  • Clinique Blush Fig
  • Tiny Beauty Eyeshadow Tint: Violette
  • Elf Baked Eyeshadow : Burnt Plum (lid)
  • Hard candy Lookpro Matte Eyeshadow Palette (crease)
  • BhCosmetics Be a bombshell Bronzer Diva
  • Gems from Walmart & Kiss Lash Glue (Clear)
  • Milani Stroblight Highlighter Sunglow
  • Wetnwild Catsuit Missy & Fierce, Pink Really Hard
  • Milani Make it Dewy Setting Spray
  • Milani Make it Last Setting Spray
  • NYC Liquid Liner
  • Jordana Fabuliner
  • Kiss Lashes Ritzy
  • StarLooks Gem Pencil Amethyst

2

It was all actually easy to do, especially when I don’t have to do so many straight lines with eyeliner. So for all my visual learners, or those who are just curious on how I accomplished this look, check out the Tutorial.

Before you go COMMENT below and tell me which pictures do you like best from this post?

Thank you guys, and Im so excited to be back! I have lots of tutorials,reviews, hauls & more coming soon!

AsaVea Hair Straightening Brush Review

1 / 5 / 171 / 5 / 17

thumb

Hello my Bondbeautys,

Its been a long time since I have done a post. With that said one of my new years resolution is to be more consistent in my blog & youtube. I really want to do more this year and I hope you guys are as excited as I am for this new year! So Im starting out this year right with a giveaway! With that said you will have to wait till  the end to learn more about that. Today I wanted to tell you my thoughts and experience with the AsaVea Hair Straightening Brush*. I was sent this brush a couple weeks ago to try out and I have been so impressed with it that I decided to do a whole blog post about it.

4-review-copy

Lets talk about what the company claims really quickly (Inserted exactly from the website*) Advanced MCH ceramic heat technology delivers a consistent optimum temperature
Suitable for a variety of hair types with seven temperature levelsfrom 330˚F to 450˚F
Give you smooth, straight, frizz-free hair in half the time it takes to use a flat iron.

 

PROS:

  • Heats up & Cools Down Quickly
  • Because of the Bristles it creates a barrier between you and the flat iron part to help prevent burning; although the bristle still get hot they are not as hot as the iron plate underneath.
  • Decreases frizz when straightening because of the brush & iron combo. (although for my hair it definitely illuminates some of the frizz but not all because of how frizzy & damaged my hair truely is)
  • Temperature is suitable to fit all hair types. I like to have it at 410
  • Straightens & styles my hair without leaving it flat. It straightens it & gives it volume.
  • Love how it styles BANGS does an amazing job & makes it easier. (see video below for small demo)
  • Minimizes damage because I only pull it through my hair 2 times!

CONS:

  • Takes the same amount of time for me to straighten my hair. (But for others with super super curly hair & non manageable hair it can minimize your hair straightening time if you use this first)
  • If you have really tangly or damaged hair you need to use a brush first or it will rip your hair out. Its not soft enough to use this to get tangles out!
  • For some the Price will be a CON it retails for $54.94* ; But with that said to get a really nice straightener it costs about the same or even less than a CHI

9-review

So with that said lets talk about some Tips & Tricks to making this the most affective.

  1. I comb my hair through before using this
  2. I divide it into 1inch sections
  3. I pull my hair straight (still gently) while I pull the comb through
  4. Start at the very roots & pull through slowly
  5. DO NOT STOP Always keep moving to prevent any burning or damage
  6. AT the very end curl the ends by turning your wrist in or out depending on what look you are going for
  7. USE a Hair oil/elixer * or Spray*to get rid of all frizz .
  8. At the Crown I Will divide the section I would usually tease and put Comb at the base & pull backwards (Making a n motion)to give it extra volume. (See video same motion as I do with my bangs)

Here is how my hair turned out: Before & After (see video below)

2-review5-review

I was a skeptic but now I have converted to the Straightening brush way haha. I really do enjoy using it and because I don’t get burned as easily I will definitely use this more than my straightener. Even though I do not have really curly kinky hair I have seen it used on that hair type and it works wonders as well. So with all that said in my opinion I think it will work on all hair types & it is worth the buy.

Here is my full review , where I show the Straightening Brush & I show you a full demo of me using it!

Voluminous Natural Curls with Diffuser + Review

10 / 5 / 1610 / 5 / 16



thumb-1

Hello my Bondbeautys,

Today I thought I would bring my niece to show you how to create some beautiful voluminous natural curls! I am doing this with a Curly Co Diffuser. I am actually super impressed with this diffusers. I have used several different ones in the past but this is the first time I use one that is:

A. Universal

B. Collapsable

C. Made of soft plastic rather than hard plastic

So I have a full video tutorial & review on this product (below); but I thought I would also chat and tell you about it here on my blog!

So lets get down to the basics , what is a diffuser exactly?

Its a attachment to your blow dryer that helps you dry your hair in a way that reduces frizz. It is made for curly hair and it  gives you volume and helps your define your curls. I absolutely love diffusers I have been using them ever since I was in high school! Lets see what that looked like for a second..phoenix-20120412-03042 phoenix-20111223-02485phoenix-20120305-02873-1 its-me-haha

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So now that we saw some curly pictures of me lets see how awesome my nieces hair turned out after she used the diffuser.

img_2424

pic

 

 

 

 

 

 

So here are some tips on how to do this:

  1. Use hair product whether it is curl cream, mousse, or gel. If you touch your hair without product it will only add frizz!
  2. Never leave the blow dryer on one spot for too long , don’t forget its still a hot tool.
  3. Always push upwards to add the most volume when using the diffuser.

dani-hair-1

Here is the simple steps that we did to achieve this hairstyle:

  1. Apply mousse + Hair Oil to your hands mix together, then apply to your hair.
  2. Start diffusing on Level 3 on Warm setting (to help reduce hair damage )
  3. Put your hair gently into the diffuser then push the diffuser up towards your scalp
  4. hold for a couple of sec then repeat all over your hair
  5. Add more Product & continue to diffuse
  6. Then put the setting on cold and diffuse one last time
  7. Then apply hair spray or any other hair product you choose & your done!

My hair is really damaged from all the bleach I have been doing so my hair has lost lots of its curl but this is how it looks after I diffuse it!

img_2068

Pros & Cons to this Diffuser:

  1. Easy to store
  2. Well Made & because of the material is less likely to break when dropped
  3. reduces frizz & adds volume
  4. really dries your curls fast!!!! (It took my niece about 5 to 10 min to dry her whole entire hair!! WHAT!
  5. Its universal so it fits on all hair dryers
  6. The Diffuser head is big so it fits lots of hair!
  7. It turns with your head thanks to the collapsable capabilities
  8. Only cost $14.99 (I do get compensated if you use this link , if you choose not to just look it up on amazon Curly Co Diffuser )

If your more of a visual learner like I am here is the video tutorial

Soon I will be doing a how to get defined curls without heat so make sure to subscribe with you email, its absolutely free!!

Pure d’or Hair Line + Argan Oil Review

7 / 20 / 167 / 21 / 16

1Hello My Bondbeautys,

Today I am bringing to you a review on the Pura d’or shampoo & conditioner + argan oil. This is an organic product, which means no harsh chemicals, no parabens & no sulfates. I will be talking about pros & cons, price, where to find, does it work, and is it worth the buy.

2

Hair Loss Prevention Therapy Shampoo: $24.99

Pros & Cons-

  • Organic
  • No Paraben
  • No Sulfates
  • No Harmful Chemicals
  • Revives Dull Damaged Hair
  • Leaves hair feeling & looking Smooth
  • Decreases Frizz
  • Prevents hairloss (by replenishing nutrients that have been lost, prevents hairloss of hair that falls out because of not having enough nutrients)
  • Cleans hair without drying it
  • Smell Eucalyptus (Con for me I don’t like that smell)
  • Smell doesn’t last very long (con: so if you only use shampoo, for example men, it will not smell like this for very long)

Healing Conditioner: $24.99

Pros & Cons

  • Hydrates Hair
  • Seals Split ends & Helps heal them
  • Moisturizes scalp (Gets rid of flakiness)
  • Smells Lavender & Vanilla
  • Softens & adds shine to the hair
  • Makes your hair look healthier after 1 week!

Here is a full more detailed review..

Purad’or Argan Oil $24.99

Pros:

  • Pure, Natural & Organic
  • Good for all skin types (If oily use as night treatment 1 drop) (if dry add into foundation, or 2drops before bed , or 1 drop before foundation application)
  • Very versatile (ends of hair, face, skin)
  • Doesn’t change the wear time of my foundation
  • hydrates & conditions
  • reduces frizz & split ends
  • Makes hair look shinier
  • Makes skin look & feel soft and healthy

3

I absolutely have fallen in love with this Argan Oil I use it in so many different ways. I have added it to my day & night routine. To see how & learn more about why I love this and how to use it check out the video below.

You can find them:

  • Target
  • Rid Aids
  • Walgreens
  • CVS
  • Drugstore.com
  • Pura d’or website
  • Kmart
  • Ulta

Is it worth the buy? Yes I think so , I really did notice a difference right away. I felt like it was actually doing something for my hair. It was nourishing & making it healthier. Organic shampoo & conditioners are not easy to find and this one is a great option that you can find almost anywhere.

Let me know what you like from Pura d’or? Whats your favorite hair or skin care product? Comment down bellow lets get a conversation going!!
