Good day!
I have taken advantage of some recent sales and collected a few more nail polishes to add to my arsenal. I got some stuff from Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics and Zoya. Both are vegan lines, by the way.

Swatch, Extravaganza
Extravaganza is part of OCC’s Fall 2011 collection, Pretty Boy. I think for autumn, it is an unusual colour as it reminds me of summer, but it is warm somewhere in the world, isn’t it? LOL! Extravaganza is a pinkish-coral with green-gold duochrome microshimmer. This was one of the stand out colours from this collection, I love it. It is bright but not neon and I think that it works well for women with darker skin as well as ladies with lighter complexion. Finally I think that this colour is pretty neutral, not to warm or too cool. I needed at least 2 coats for this one. The formula is on the thinner side and not too streaky.

I’m talking about the SheaMoisture Organic Raw Shea Butter Moisture Retention Shampoo with Sea Kelp, Argan Oil & Shea Butter for dry, damaged hair. I have been using this shampoo for about a year now. AND I LOVE IT!!!!!

While I was a relaxed girl, as a matter of fact, I have always have problems with shampoos drying my hair and scalp out. I would often feel like my scalp was tightening and pulling away from my hair. Fast forward to last year as a natural. Now my hair is growing and kinky and my number 1 goal is to prevent my hair from completely drying out when I wash it and to still effectively cleanse it. I have tried other natural shampoos and many of them while they work, they also did not suds enough for my liking. A little bit of sudsing or foaming is actually good because it helps trap and remove oil and dirt. It’s when there is excessive bubble action when the skin and hair feels dry. I also avoid traditional shampoos with certain sulphates and their derivatives like sodium lauryl sulphate, ammonium laureth sulphate etc. This is one of the moves that I have made that has totally changed the health and condition of my hair. I stick to the gentle cleansers that can remove water-soluble products.

So Happy Thanksgiving!!
The biggest food day of the year is the prequel to the biggest shopping day of the year, Black Friday. Of course, retailers have also created Cyber Monday as the biggest online shopping day. Needless to say, there will be plenty deals to take advantage of! I am going to use this time to shop for others myself! 😛
Here is what I have so far and I will add as I get more info:
