Julep Oxygen Nail Treatment














The oxygen nail treatment promises to complete nail care and make-up (Who knew!?) in one bottle. The treatment is composed of Hexanal that promises stronger, thicker, and smoother nails after one application. I applied a couple of coats once a week. The sheer pink treatment went on a bit thicky and uneven. It took a bit also to dry but it gave nice French tip look. Overall, my nails did look better but by very much. I was mostly a fan of the sheer pink color.

EVEN GLOW SERUM - 20% Vitamin C - Antioxidant Treatment
















The Valentia Even Glow Serum promised to even and brighten skin. As currently being plagued with acne scars I couldn't wait to give this product a try. The silky serum is packed anti-aging ingredients such as  Organic Rosehip Oil, Organic Sea Buckthorn Oil, Green Tea Extract, Botanical Hyaluronic Acid, and Resistem. The creamy serum provided all day hydration, reduced wrinkles and fine lines along with boosting collagen production. While I didn't notice any reduction in wrinkles or fine lines but my skin is soft and smooth. I also like how radiant my skin look and felt. I would probably purchase this again if it was on sale.

Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment SPF 15














I bought the holiday set for these mini lip balms and finally got around to using one. I love the Fresh brand and I heard a lot of good things about these lip treatments, so I figured I should give them a try. This is a hydrating treatment that nourishes, protects, and plumps the lips. Unlike the other treatments this lip balm goes on clear.  The lip balm is packed with reparative oils, waxes, real sugar, black currant oil, grapeseed polyphenols, Vitamins A, C, and E. It is formulated without parabens, sulfates, synthetic dyes, petrochemicals, phthalates, GMOs, triclosan, lanolin, petroleum and mineral oil.The lip treatment made my feel buttery soft and my lips had a sweet taste to it. The one thing I hate about this lip treatment is that the stick is too thin that it broke after a couple uses. I might buy the full size version as I did like the product but I was annoyed that the lip balm broke so quickly.

Tresemme Platinum Strength Renewing Deep Conditioning Treatment

Photo Source - Tresemme


Tresemme promises salon quality hair products at affordable prices. It can repair damaged hair with 5 uses if used with Tresemme Platinum Strength hair protocol. According to the instructions, after shampooing apply a generous amount from mid length to your ends and apply what is left over to the roots. Wait 5 minutes and then rinse off. After I applied the fresh scented hair mask, I used a shower cap and then I took the hair dryer and blasted my hair [ with the shower cap on ]  for a couple of minutes to let the mask sink in. I then washed it off and let it air dry. The end result? Super soft, manageable and OMG frizz free hair! While it seems to be a lot of steps, trust me the end result is worth it. I kept getting asked if I got my hair done. And the answer is yes, but I did it myself for one - fifth of the price.

The deep repairing cream is packed with apple extract and arctic white peat. The product promises to preserve skin’s appearance by promoting the skin’s ability to repair itself. The cream made my skin soft and smooth. I haven’t notice anything any improvement on my wrinkles…not that I have any..just saying if I did. Overall, it is a good cream and this probably should be use more for preventing wrinkles then helping to treat ones you have.

Karuna Hydrating Treatment Mask

Karuna’s Hydrating Treatment mask claim to restore and retain hydration. The mask is packed with natto, Chinese licorice, chamomile, vitamin B, aloe vera, peptides, antioxidants and other plant extracts.  The mask is made with biodegradable wood pulp fiber which holds more moisture than other masks which are made of synthetic ingredients. The mask made my skin soft, hydrated and smooth. My skin did look dewy but my face felt a bit tight afterwards.  Each box comes with four masks for $28. They are a lot cheaper than a lot of other masks and they do a great job. Overall, I would probably purchase these again. I love using this every Sunday as a great way to unwind and get ready for work on Monday.

Amika Obliphica Hair Treatment



I have used several hair treatments; many of them leave my hair greasy and tangled.  Thankfully, Amika Hair treatment is not one of them. The lightweight oil leaves my tresses softer, smoother and sleeker all after one application. To use, simply evenly distribute a couple drops of the oil through wet hair or dry hair. Apply before blow-drying to add a bit of sheen and no one can tell the difference between a professional blowout or one that you woke up 2 hours earlier to do.
