I've been extending by blow out! Here's my secret.

This is a magical product. No. Really. I am a busy mom, and I also do not like to wash my hair daily. There's no need to. But there are days like let's say after the gym my hair needs to be freshened up. I don't have all the time in the world just for me. So if I fit in a work out, that's my one mommy thing for the day. It's the gross truth. OK calm down, I shower if its a total sweat fest lol. 
I have found a nice little trick for my hair that has kept my hair big and bouncy, full of big waves and volume. 

After a blow out I like to sleep in a bun to try to maintain it, but not always  successfuly. Now all I do is I incorporate 'Not Your Mothers Clean Freak Refreshing Dry Shampoo'. 
 At the end of the day I spray my roots, brush with a bristle brush and bun it! (Use pins, I use the Spin Pin.) Generally its off to the gym in the morning. So the bun stays. (But if you're not off to the gym you are ready to flip your hair and tousle your roots. There you go, FAB hair!) 

OK back to the gym. You had a moderate work out. An hour of the elliptical, and some weights. Not a huge sweat fest. But the roots of your hair are a bit damp. No worries, keep your bun in let your hair dry, and spray your roots. Hop in the shower (non hair wash day). All done, flip tousle and  there you go: HAIR!

"Good Morning!"

The other night I didn't sleep in my bun. Had one of those days, mommies hair was wound a bit tight. Major headache, isn't that the greatest. I still sprayed a bit and brushed out. 

When I woke up I thought I had lost the volume. So I thought I would put it to a different test. No over night bun just gym, and a shower... the results were AWESOME.

All I did was flip and tousle at the roots with my fingers.

No heavy perfume smell.

So, yeah, will be buying this again! The best thing... price. I had no idea how much it was because I received mine from Influenster for testing purposes. when it worked so well I was a little nervous. I was really thinking THIS had to be  pricey. Um NO! Check it out:

Influenster Violet Vox Box Review

I just recieved my Influenster Violet Voxbox! I am so excited, I live for these. Sharing my thoughts on products is nothing new. Here is the Sugar N' Spice Voxbox I reviewed a while back. At the same time I share ridiculous videos and pictures( follow me on Instagram and Twitter or Facebook for some silliness with myself and other Influensters). A lot of the items are beauty products, so I will share the not-so-glam shots. 

Soy Joy product I am very aware of. I first tried them when they first came out. Was not a fan. Saw it in my box again, there must be a reason.  Now more fruitier! Well that's what it said. Did it live up ... yes. It was mighty tasty. The one in my box was Dark Chocolate and Cherry. That's what I would of picked. There was enough chocolate to kill any sweet craving, and I will always pick dark chocolate over milk chocolate. the cherries were perfectly complementary, and not a bit dry. I would consider picking these up again. Best deal again is at Walmart (click to purchase).
Get MyPoints there too! Double score!

Indulge the healthy way with Dark Chocolate Cherry SOYJOY. Whole soy plays host to dark chocolate and real cherries in this dessert lover's delight. Lose yourself in its flavor and always have your chocolate craving covered.

This was a wonderful treat! Sally Hansen Triple Shine. I like to have my nails painted more, but I am terrible at the application, and sitting still. The brush is just awesome. No really. Its a shorter, more dense brush. I actually could control what the heck was going on. Dried fast enough for me,' little miss ants in the pants' . The finish is quite nice too. Easy enough to paint the nails of a three year old and dries fast enough for' little miss ants in the pants junior'! Might I add the color I received 'Red Snapper' is beautiful. On the red scale its more in the coral zone. A very fresh youthful red.

This morning I started out early testing some of my #violetbox goodies from Influenster . The first one this morning I gave MJClaySpa masque a shot. 

The Glacial Clay Spa mask with Canadian Glacial Clay cools the skin for an ultra refreshing cleanse, perfect after working up a sweat at hot yoga. It re hydrates the skin, removes impurities and cleans out pores deep down for an invigorating experience.

It was super easy to use. You just pull put the 'pre moistened' mask and stick to face. Its easy for when I don't always have time to mix up one of my heavier clays. It was at lighter experience too, it was cooling, but not the big tingle I was expecting. I did not notice a huge difference, but my skin did feel nice after. I do wish it covered the jaw though. 

I will say that the Goody Head band was very helpful for doing masks. The new hair bands are part of an Athletic line, reversible and made of more breathable fabric. I did take them for a jog. Meh. It didn't stay put as much as I would like.It felt like I was wearing one of those ear muff headbands. It felt very thick on my head. I like it for yoga, and facials! 

Goody Athletique items provide you hold and comfort so you can be physically active and strong in body and mind.  This headband's lightweight, moisture-wicking fabric keeps you cool, dry and comfortable!

• Wide band shape holds back flyaways

• Reversible for two looks in one 

• Moisture-wicking fabric that keeps you cool and dry 

I have never tried dry shampoo before! I have been very curious. But now one of my new favorites! I also found a great use for it too. When I went for a jog to test my head band I had just had a fresh blow out! I am not the type of person to wash my hair daily unless something gets really gnarly! I had my hair in a bun, and then the head band. I wasn't dripping with sweat but I wanted to freshen my hair. I flipped my hair over and sprayed this on the roots  and brushed through. It smelled sooooooooo good. My hair felt soft and poofy volume like. I was super impressed. This is a great idea for after a not too super sweaty work out, and you just need to freshen up your hair after being under a head band or flattened by a scarf. I had to go online to see how much it would cost. I was expecting it to be a specialty item. Specialty = $$$. Surprise Walmart had it online 7 ounces, $4.74! 7 ounces is a lot too. My sample bottle is like 2 oz, it will last.  Get excited people!!!!! This is a keeper. 

You can purchase it here  (click to purchase , Valid for MyPoints).

Ulta and Walgreens for $5.99.

I have received these products complimentary for testing purposes from Influenster.
