This No Frizz Hair Care Line is your First Defense Against Humidity

Danyelle Valentin // @bufferingbetty

When your love for big hair turns ironic.

 With frizzy hair, even the slightest presence of moisture in the air ruins your low slick back ponytail into a swirly mess.

Don’t doubt for a minute that I don’t love every inch of my hair. I can manipulate it into anything. There are certainly cute frizzy hair days.

But THIS is not one of them so these are the days that we need to embrace the power good hair care.

The first step for managing frizzy hair is identifying why your hair swells 3x it’s actual size in the first place. Frizzy hair means that your hair is on the dryer side; regardless of your hair type. For me, it’s, 1, I was born this way, and 2, using hot tools in my hair. Using heated styling tools to smooth my frizz just creates more of what I’m trying to, not eliminate, but keep well below Hagrid levels. I also shower with hot water. I know it’s bad for my dry skin and hair but I can’t help it!!!!

So, if you were born this way, the first thing you need to do is ACCEPT and EMBRACE your frizzy hair. Almost nothing can correct nature. There are dozens of ways to style your hair where frizz adds an exciting element of beauty. We see it on the runway all the time!

Source

Note: I wouldn’t be mad if my hair looked like that every day. And I do mean that big too!

I also need to accept that I am damaging my hair with heat and products that dry it out -only making it frizzier. What are your habits that effect your hair?

Frizzy hair be like 0 to GODDAMN in 5 seconds. You’ll think you’re going to have a great natural hair day and POOF. Your hair had other plans but you were already in your car on your way to happy hour and now you have to enlist ‘the bun’ to save you. -Just me?

To keep your hair fierce rather ferocious, prepping your hair starts in the shower. The Living Proof No Frizz shampoo and conditioner left me blown away the first time I used it. It has continued to impress me every time I wash my hair. I’m on my third set!!! Do you remember how nice you’re hair felt before your discovered hot tools and styling products? Or do you feel slightly jealous of your baby cousins’ hairs because they just look so healthy and untainted by the pressures of adulthood? Yeah. that's how good my hair feels and looks with this combo.

Most ‘no frizz’ hair care lines I’ve tried leave my hair weighed down. I. Hate. Flat. Hair. The Living Proof combo is everything. My hair looks and feels so healthy. My wavy hair texture is at peak waviness when I let it air dry -even with no added product. Are you paying attention! NO ADDED PRODUCT! I get compliments on my hair when I use this shampoo and conditioner.

Add it to your cart, your wishlists, your mood boards now! -
Shampoo // Conditioner

On second and third (+ so on) day hair, I use the Living Proof No Frizz Nourishing Styling Cream. It brings down the frizz to a socially acceptable level. I keep mini ones with me at all times! One in my purse and one chills in the cup-holder of the front seat of my car. It doesn’t act as a smoothing oil which works to eliminate all signs of frizz. Like I said, I love my frizzy hair. I just like to not walk around looking like I haven’t brushed my hair in 3 months. The styling cream gives more definition to my waves without making my hair heavy.

No Frizz Nourishing Styling Cream

This next product is not part of the Living Proof line BUT it is a ‘holy grail’ level product for keeping my hair in shape. The Bumble and Bumble Hairdresser’s Invisible Oil Balm-to-Oil Pre Shampoo Masque -ya need it. Just to keep it simple; you need it. Damage in my hair always shows on the ends. This masque makes my hair look like I just got it cut. It’s boujee salon level excellent that you can do at home. I would just avoid using it directly before styling your hair because it is so rich that your hair will just fall flat.

Hairdresser’s Invisible Oil Balm-to-Oil Pre Shampoo Masque

Have I told you how I’ve crowned myself as the Sample Queen -because I have. You can be too! Try all of the Living Proof products I wrote about in this travel kit they put together.

Living Proof
No Frizz Smoothing & Frizz Fighting Travel Kit

For the days when the frizz factor will not be controlled. always keep some sort shield with you. It could be a hat, headband or scarf. For me it’s at least 4 bobby pins to create a secure bun and a hair tie for when I can’t be bothered. Frizz happens fast. Don’t let them catch you slippin’!

From the moment I emerged into this life, I have had frizzy hair. As a child, my mom saturated my sisters’ and my hair with Infusium leave in conditioner. In middle school, to control the frizz, I coated my hair in Pantene Pro V mousse or any brand gel -I had one that tinted my hair blue and made it as hard as plastic. I’d pull my hair into a high side ponytail with a scrunchie! In high school, I discovered the blow dryer but only used it the night before school to “let the frizz settle overnight” -I still do this sometimes.

I fully embrace my hair! I often try something new: blonde, blue, purple, bob, bangs, braids. and all of the things!

If all else fails, live in your Diana Ross- big hair, don’t care-moments!

4 Beauty Sprays Dry Skin Sufferers Need

@bufferingbetty

Moisturize me!

There are two outrageously terrible symptoms of untreated dry skin. The first is how your skin feels. Your skin can feel so tight that you fear any facial expression you make could force your skin to crack wide open. If it ever reaches the itchy stage, your mind can focus on nothing else until you get that heavy duty moisturizer on your skin. The second symptom is how your skin can look. It's worse because it adds insult to injury. Not only are you physically uncomfortable but now you're self-conscious of all the little flaky patches on your face.

Sometimes, your skin can look as if the outer most layer is
about to shed right off your face like a snake's skin.

For us makeup wearers, untreated dry skin is a nightmare. Your makeup can't look good if your skin ain't right. 

Here are four sprays that make dry skin look and feel JUICY!

For Skin Care:

The time between when you cleanse your skin and apply a moisturizer is very fragile for dry skin survivors. If your skin is still too wet, the moisturizer will slip off your face but you won't even know it. That is until 10 minutes later when you sneeze and you could swear the skin on your forehead must've broken off. I've literally touched my forehead to see if I was bleeding because it hurt so badly. If you wait even a little bit too long to apply moisturizer, well you already know. Itchy. Cracky. Terribleness. 

Tatcha Luminous Dewy Skin Mist 

The Luminous Dewy Skin Mist by Tatcha was an instant hit for me. When the serum spray sunk into my skin, I was amazed by how supple my skin felt. I've bought it a few times and I'll buy it again. Tatcha claims you can use this on top of make up but I don't like to use it that way. Dewy becomes greasy really fast. Take the less is more approach with this spray.

My skin was juicy like a peach!

The mist is fine as hell and so am I. 

Makeup Prep:

If your skin is crusty + dusty, your makeup is dusty + crusty. It's all about that skin prep. The best primer I have used is the Too Faced Hangover Rx Replenishing Face Primer. OMG is it good. When Too Faced came out with the spray version of the creamy primer, I could not wait to get my chubby little hands on it. 

Too Faced Hangover 3-in-1 Replenishing Primer & Setting Spray

I don't know if my bottle was just a dud but the nozzel is pura trash. TBH, I didn't even realize it leaked until I filmed this gif. The mist is FAR from fine. It spits in your face. So spray it in the air and let it fall on your face. However, truth be told, the spray works as well as the original primer. What makes this formula so bomb is the ability it has to keep your skin feeling like it has been freshly moisturized without feeling like you have moisturizer on your face. It's a liquid Houdini!

Too Faced Product Review

So the real tea is that Too Faced calls this a 3-in-1 product.
Nah. It's just a 1-in-1.

I only use this product as a primer because both formulations leave your skin feeling so sticky. You feel hydrated and look radiant but if you touch your face, there is an undeniable tackiness.  Using this as a setting spray is a hell no. Unless you want to feel like you're a piece of double sided tape all day. It also doesn't help with fine lines or pores but I'll take both over crusty looking skin any day. But probably because I don't have a ton of either. 

OOO, also the scent soothes all of your woes. 

Makeup Set:

Foundation, concealer, powder, highlight, blush, bronzer -layer after layer, babes with dry skin know how we can look after all that powder. I'm not putting in all this effort to look like I have been rolling in the sand. My makeup skill level is intermediate, so I also need a setting spray that brings it all together for me with just a touch of glow.

Milani Make It Last Setting Spray

In the past 6 months, I have bought this product 3 times. While you're reading this, I'm probably on my way to buy another one. It's affordable, it smells good, I look great. Milani is a brand you shouldn't sleep on. This setting spray is an amazing product.

What I like about this setting spray, is that it does not
alter the finish of my makeup.

I picked a foundation for a reason. I chose a powder for a reason. I like how it looks. I just need a little extra help not a totally different look. I like a 'natural glow' over a dewy-sweaty look. I had always used the Make Up For Ever Mist + Fix but I hated how sweaty I looked. This Milani spray gives me the same longevity of the MUFE spray without the 'she's just wet' look. What is tragic about this setting spray is the amount of alcohol in it. I haven't noticed any changes in my skin since using this product but I am always cautious with my dry skin. Take care of your skin especially after wearing makeup. 

Move over, big hair! My radiant goddess dreams achieved. 

On The Go:

Dry skin doesn't care who you are, where you're at, or what you are doing. It chooses when you can look juicy and when you will look stale. The best thing you can do is be prepared. You need moisture with you at all times! This is not a drill. All the time. 

Tony Moly Pocket Bunny Mist

The contents of my purse include these essential items. Not pictured: 8 lip products in shades of fuchsia berries and my long yellow wallet stuffed with old receipts and about $6 worth of assorted coins. 

Tony Moly has the most adorably packaged products. The Pocket Bunny Moist Mist is no different. This little guy has saved my skin on numerous occasions. It is the only reason I was able to turn on the heat in my car without fear this past winter. Heating and air cooling systems alike make my skin feel like a piece of toast that has been left out overnight. I drive a lot. I love that I can just pop this spray out of my bag, give myself a little spritz and feel so comfortable.

It doesn't disrupt my makeup.

Everyone that rides with me, in the winter months particularly, has had me spray them in the face with my little bunny. Yes! They did like it!

No ashy hands over here!

Tell me how you tackle your dry skin!! What spray should I try next?

Beauty Horoscope: Pisces

 (February 19 - March 20)

Pisces, the starry-eyed sign. Your hopelessly romantic nature inspires you to find love and art in all of your experiences. But it also reveals your tendency to overindulge. Not everything is worthy of your whole heart. This season, create looks using only two eyeshadow colors. The whole palette may entice you to dip your brush into as many shades as you can. Flirt with simplicity without being simple at all. A Pisces has no creative limitations.

Beauty Horoscope: Aquarius

 (January 20 - February 18)

Aquarius, you thrive in social situations because you know how to keep people wanting. Half the time, you hang on to each and every word. Other times, you are totally indifferent. This tactful skill maintains that 'cool kid' status you have always had. It is your natural state of being. The Aquarius look for 2018 plays with this trait. Modern Grunge In Black cloaks your eyes in mysterious intensity. When you give your attention, the smudge shadow around your eyes will give the person peering back at them the feeling that you are enchanted by their conversation. Should you choose to be indifferent, your distance will be all the more stunning. Don't get lost in your own eyes.

Capricorn, Earth is your element. It encourages you to embrace your natural essence. Beauty, Skin. Hair. You feel grounded in your sense of responsibility. You can play on that desire for rules and structure by expressing yourself with the exposed bobby pin trend. Allow your hair to bloom and sway with each move you make without getting out of control. Creative patterns with the bobby pins paired with your hair’s natural texture will give you the perfect balance of discipline and voice.

Beauty Horoscope: Sagittarius

 (November 22 - December 21)

Sagittarius, like other fire signs, your traits are all consuming. Your emotions are undiluted. Pearls are a major fashion staple this season. The trend adorned models who glided down the runways of New York Fashion Week. These jewels are a symbol of generosity; a distinctive virtue of a Sagittarius. Pearls can make a head turning statement. A raised eye brow will have no effect on you. A Sagittarius has never been one to assilimate.

How To Get The Fenty Face Without Fenty Products (Drugstore Too!)

@bufferingbetty

Fashion icon, actress, singer, Rihanna, has made her mark on the beauty industry with the launch of her own makeup line. All September long, the beauty sphere has been cheering for Fenty Beauty. Makeup obsessed shoppers can't stop talking about Rihanna's release of 40 shades of foundation. They have also just been going straight batshit for her highlighters. 

The Fenty Face comes down to great skin and a banging highlight. We are so here for it. Should you run into trouble getting your hands on their products, you can still get the Fenty Face without one product from Fenty. Here's how:

Prime

Fenty Beauty's primer is all about giving the skin a natural radiance while blurring pores. To get the look of the Pro Filt'r Instant Retouch Primer you can use a blurring primer on your problem areas, such as deep set smile lines and pores on your nose, while applying a radiant primer on the rest of your face. Two primers -so extra, right? No.  It is how I begin my makeup and how I make sure my whole face still looks good by the end of the day. These primers have a similar finish to Fenty's. 

Josie Maran

Surreal Skin Argan Finishing Balm

L.A. Girl

Pro Prep HD Face Primer

Foundation

Think of Rihanna's most iconic looks. Her skin is always poppin'. She never looks cakey and heavy. Just blessed with skin that is naturally bomb af.  It is the same with Fenty's Pro Filt'r Soft Matte Longwear Foundation. Soft matte, demi-matte, satin, whatever name you give it, there is one conclusion. Skin that is effortlessly beautiful. In Ri Ri's own words, "I want it to look like perfect skin, not like makeup on skin."

Milk Makeup

Blur Liquid Matte Foundation

Maybelline

Fit Me Matte and Poreless

Glow To The Gawds

Trophy Wife. The highlight that has stopped the hearts of beam queens coast to coast. Fenty's Killawatt Freestyle Highlighters and Match Stix Shimmer Skinsticks are a wardrobe for your face. Badgalriri said, "I like to look at these Shimmer Skinsticks like I look at my clothes in the closet. Am I doing fun? Am I doing alien? Am I doing weird? Am I doing sexy? Am I doing extra? Am I doing girl next door? You choose." (source). Rihanna can pull off any look. We've seen her look like a muñeca in her cupcake dress and like Morticia at the Diamond Ball. The key to the Fenty face highlight is FUN. Whatever you choose, let it pull your whole look, mood, and vibe together. 

Maybelline

FaceStudio Master Strobing Stick Illuminating Highlighter

NYX

Strobe of Genius Holographic Stick

Blot On The Go

Those with oily skin were the first to notice that the launch of Fenty Beauty didn't include something they rely on to ensure their make up lasts: setting powder. Maybe that is because a powder look is not part of the fresh Fenty Face. The foundation also claims to be "undetectable" (source) and a powder is usually a dead give away that you have makeup on your face - apart from gilded eyes and these other trending fall looks.  But some of us need a little blot throughout the day. Here are some products that are just as easy to throw in your bag to reduce shine as you clock out and head to happy hour. 

Innisfree

Innisfree - No Sebum Mineral Pact

Iman

Oil Blotting Powder

What products are you excited to see launched from Fenty Beauty?

Beauty Horoscope: Libra

Libra (Septemeber 23 - October 22)

Libra, in your friend group, you are the glue. You bring balance to those around you. Though you may not be a leader, your impartial nature makes you a worthy confidant. A Libra's heart knows its own path because they are a true non-conformist. The beauty trend that is perfect for a Libra is a teardrop. It could be as dramatic as cascading glitter or as subtle as a small pearl centered on your lower lash line. Either way, it signifies that you don't march to the beat of your own drummer, you are your own drummer creating your own paths.

LUST: MatteTrance Back In Stock!

Take a deep breath and get ready!

We caught this on Pat McGrath's Instagram  and just had to share it with all of you! But, surprise, all of the lipsticks have been restocked!!! Well, minus Skin Show. This brown rose color has been hot and hard to snatch up.

These new images have popped up on the patmcgrath.com which suggests that this is their new packaging. Will it come concealed in a bag of gold sequin is the real question here. 

This lipstick is truly a collector's item. Without a doubt, it will be featured in a makeup museum one day. When you hold it in your hand, it feels so very luxe and worth every when you wear it. 

This is a lipstick you can not pass on! The formula is unlike any other.

A matte lipstick in a bullet? I'm sure you have your doubts like I did but trust me, set them aside. This is not like what you imaged. The second I swiped this lipstick across my lips, I was hooked. I started with my bottom lip and gasped!!! Not a skip, not a tug, not a patch to be found. FULL COLOR! I was in full panic, which is this colors name btw. 

One thing you are going to learn about me is that I love hot pink, fuchsia, berry shades. They make my skin glow and Full Panic is no different. It is the perfect fuchsia with a blue undertone that doesn't make your teeth look all yellow. 

And have you heard? There are two ways to scroll up the lipstick? There is! If you twist the black base of the lipstick, it twirls up as any other lipstick would. However, if you twist the gold tube, the lipstick comes straight up! It is a genius feature because it means that the metallic gold lips will always be on display. 

When you apply the MatteTrance lipstick, it is not totally matte. You can blot it with a tissue to remove any shine. It is comfortable on the lips and the wear down - amazing. It fades to an even stain that looks just like a softer version of the lipstick. This is not the lipstick that moves around and gets all over your face. It's not transfer proof but you won't feel like it's sliding off your lips and onto your teeth. 

All of us at meetpepperb had a major freak out moment when I got featured on Pat McGrath's official instagram page! ME?!?! HOW?!?! I was just goofing on snapchat, put it on my Instagram story and tagged Pat McGrath. Not once did I think that she would ever see it let alone post it on her page.  You can see me in my truest nature here

Be sure to tag #PMGLABLOVE for YOUR chance to be featured - I want to see LUST: #MatteTrance on each and every one of you!

What does Pepper Think of the MatteTrance Lipstick?

Beauty Horoscope: Virgo

Virgo (August 23 - September 22)

Virgo, a perfectionist to a fault. Nothing excites a Virgo beauty lover like finding a more practical way to store their collection of blushes. #JustVirgoThings. Your aesthetic is stimulated by both minimalist cleanliness and the chaos of a garden. According to Elle, based on looks from Fall 2017 fashion shows, a makeup trend to keep on your radar is a graphic look. Graphic looks can strike a perfect balance for Virgo. A clean line across the eyelid that is slightly where no one expects it to be is both minimalist and chaotic. Virgos are tagged with blushing sweet innocence but a bold graphic liner reminds admirers and haters alike of the true strength and courage it takes to be so peaceful.

Thank you Danyelle!!!

My current favorite way to do my makeup is light - medium foundation, powder only under my glasses, blush, brows, and lips + occasional mascara. I just love how it looks with my newish short haircut. ✨Is there a foundation that actually looks like skin❓ @coverfx Natural Finish Oil Free Foundation 🤔 New review on meetpepperb.com 🖤 link in bio ✨ ______________________________ #meetpepperb #beautyblog #coverfx #naturalfoundation #oilfreefoundation #foundationreview #dropinglamout #coverfxfoundation #bufferingbetty #freelancewriter #freelancecontentcreator #writerforhire #contentwriter #branding #realtechniques #exposeyouredge
