NOTD: Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in White On
Hey guys! Can't believe its already May. I finally found some time to paint my nails as they usually break off from me not taking care of them too well. Here are my nails of the day, from the Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear collection in "White On".
I just love this shade! Its very opaque, hasn't chipped once, and is very wearable. I was originally going to paint them black but I think I threw it out a while ago. Oh well, its a nice refreshing change from wearing black. What are your favourite nail colours for the summer?
Thanks for reading!

Dove Invigorating Dry Shampoo Review
This product has been gaining a lot of positive attention lately, and with good reason. Since it is made by Dove, you know that the product will work amazing, no joke. I've been on the hunt for a good dry shampoo that is both inexpensive and and effective. I have tried a few before, but it felt like I used chalk dust o my scalp. This one fit my über simple criteria for sure.
Let's take a look at the packaging. Its so clean and simple looking. It just makes you think of that fresh Dove scent that you get from their beauty bars. I also liked how it had an aerosol nozzle that actually worked. Finally, somebody got it right! Other brands seem to clog up, and then you have to rinse it every time, which is a bit time consuming. So far, I have had no problem at all with getting the nozzle to work. Kudos, Dove. One thing that I noticed was that two of the three cans I purchased had leaked through the nozzle, after a couple uses. I was a little confused to why the defect would occur with such frequency, but who knows, maybe it leaks if the nozzle is pushed from an odd angle or twisted funny. Nonetheless, the third can worked fine, and it is still pretty full, even after several usages.
The product itself is pretty rad. When it is spray it too many times in one area, it leaves a white cast on your hair. I have dark brown hair, and I found that it disappears without a trace after working
in the product after a couple seconds.Here's where the magic happens. After a quick brush, mu bair is shiny, clean and soft. Wow. Did I mention it only costs around $3.75 (CAD) for 5 ounces?
I would say it did a pretty good job of absorbing all the oil, without any heavy buildup. I have oily hair, and it did darn well even on the second and third day of skipping shampoo. I can now skip using shampoo and use water for 3 days at the most, rather than everyday.
As mentioned before, the packaging makes me think of that fresh Dove scent. I smells nice and clean, like a purifying kind of scent. It reminds me of their original shampoo.
Overall, I loved this product. Its cheap, easy to find, and does the job. I would buy this again, for sure. I'm not concerned about the nozzle, as leakage can be prevented. Well, thanks for reading!
Happy Thursday

Too bad we don't get this every month :p Well, I am going to bed soon, all that food is making me sleepy. Have a wonderful weekend!

DIY: Sweet & Salty Body Scrub
I recently bought this awesome scrub a couple weeks ago, and it made my skin so soft and feeling hydrated. It came in a small package, only contained about 50 mL of product, as I bought it in a set. The regular-sized one was the 200 mL version, but I still feel as if I can make this myself at home, and still be just as effective ( the product cost $20 CAD). So, here is my version, of an easy and effective body scrub.
