Free As My Hair

Candy colored hair has been all the rage this summer and finally I was dying to get in on the trend.  Not wanting to pay for salon color and also not wanting to be stuck with permanently blue hair, I found a temporary blue dye at the beauty store and decided to try it out.  Here are the results!
I didn't want to bleach any parts of my hair myself, so I just dyed some of the pieces I have that were already lightened.  The results were subtle but fun and only last 4-6 washes!
Who knows, maybe I'll try pink next!

Purple Haze- A product review

 So I'm taking a cue from my dear friend at Makeup Majesty and doing my first beauty product review!  Drum roll please...
Behold MAC Lipglass in All of My Purple Life!
I'm no stranger to MAC's lipglass and I've always been a big fan.  But last week I saw that they came out with limited edition colors in the lipglass and also eye shadows that were designed by a few lovely bloggers (how amazing would that be??).  I saw this bold purple and HAD to have it.  Fast forward 3 days (as they are online only and I had to wait for shipping) and here we are!  I adore the drama of this bright purple.  It is bold and fun without being too dark or goth for summer. Thank goodness I didn't hesitate because it is now sold out online!

Check out the other colors in the Bloggers Obsession line here before they are all gone!
