Project pan update.

So yeah, i kinda fail at project pan.

These are the things from my last post that i need to use. 

1. my eos sweet mint lip balm 
2. my bath and body works cherry blossom lotion 
3. my bath and body works lemon cream hand sanitiser 
4. another lip balm
5. my current body wash GRAPEFRUIT!  

i used the other lip balm for my nail hydration formula. i finished my eos sweet mint.  umm, I'm embarrassed to say this, but i didn't use anything else. 

my lemon cream sanitiser is slowly going bye-bye... BUT i did finish sweet pea hand sanitiser (not on project pan though... 

my lotion didn't change. its still half done. 

my body wash is almost done, id say around 1 more week.

So now i have this:

1. my bath and body works cherry blossom lotion 
2. my bath and body works lemon cream hand sanitiser 
3. my current body wash GRAPEFRUIT!

i suck.

Hope you had a wonderful thanksgiving. this was by black friday haul.

sorry its short and simple, it was a huge rush and I'm writing this monday night, with a load of fresh homework after the break.

Review: Carmex lipbalm original tube formula

WOW I've been using a lot of lip balms! glad i can solve my lip balm problem.
Carmex is a great lip balm and i got it somewhere in October. (in my October favorites)

Pros: glossy looking lips! looks almost like a clear gloss.
HYDRATES! (uhm, yeah, quite a bit)
cute lip gloss looking tube
doesn't feel that sticky on lips
no tint
nice easy to use circle applicator.
spf 15

Cons: Smells okay, kinda bad.
your hair does stick to it a little if your hair touches it.

I do recommend it, and i will buy more once i finish all the lip balms i want to use.

How to pick the correct shampoo for you!

Okay, so for this post, i will give the steps first, then talk about how to find out what hair type you are. AND THEN i will say HOW to actually go to a store and find a shampoo and conditioner.

1. Find out if your hair is dry or oily.
2. if you have dyed hair, you have to use a colored shampoo. 
3. Find out if you have dandruff
4. find out if you have frizzy hair
5. find out if you have hair volume problems

HOW TO FIND OUT IF...

you hair is oily- you hair will get greasy easily, like the day after you wash your hair. 

Your hair is dry- your hair doesn't get greasy until a week or so without washing, it is dry and crisp when you touch it. 

you have dandruff- you have white stuff at your scalp? it isn't lice? its dandruff

you have frizzy hair- you hair puffs up or gets a little curly if released to water or humidity. 

you have volume problems- your hair is flat and limp when your hair is dry.

If you have...

oily hair- find a strong shampoo and let it sit in you hair for a while before washing out (see more in post how to wash your hair)

dry hair- find a hydrating shampoo

Dandruff- find a dandruff shampoo. head and shoulders has one and selsum blue is a brand for dandruff

fizzy hair- use frizz control spray after you use a hydrating shampoo

volume problems- find a voluming shampoo

this book was about a 13 year old girl who's living a normal teenage life. she lives in new york and her mom worked at the world trade center as a Secretary. on September 11th, her mom goes missing (9/11 bombings) this book is sad and you really learn to appreciate your parents and your LIFE. the girl moves to California to her dads house, and learns to love her mom more then she every has. she develops into a nice young girl, and makes friends in California.

In this book you will learn to love life.

i liked this book because i really learned to appreciate what i have and to love life and my family. (and there was a little romance)

there are adventures in this book that will make you read it in a few sittings!

How to wash your hair the correct way.

Hi Guys So I'm going to tell you how to wash your hair the correct way. I'll be giving two different direction. one for oily hair and one for dry hair.

I'll do another post on how to pick a shampoo that is best for your hair soon.

And BTW people: I've been reading a lot of blogs now, and I've really been liking it when the author puts a picture in, do i will be adding more pics to this blog coming up!

OILY HAIR

1. Wet you hair all the way through, MAKE SURE ITS SOAKING
2. Put around 3 quarter-size of shampoo on your hand. rub this into your scalp.
3. when you massage the shampoo on you scalp, don't rub with your finger tips, SCRATCH with your nails. this gets all the oil and dirt out of your hair.
4. don't scrub your tails until you feel like your scalp is clean
5. when you feel like you did enough scrubbing, let the shampoo sit in your hair for a few minutes. this really gets rid of dirt and oil.
6. "scrub" the tails of your hair (basically rub it like your rubbing lotion into your hands)
7. wash out the shampoo
8. get a small quarter size amount of conditioner, don't get too much, because conditioner is basically oil for our hail to hydrate. so if you have oily hair then don't use too much conditioner
9. apply conditioner to only the TAILS of your hair.
10. let it sit for a minute or so, then wash out well.
11. repeat the shampoo and conditioning process if you want your hair to be nice and clean!
12. Enjoy! You now know how to properly wash your hair from all oil and dirt, but still leave your hair healthy. 

DRY HAIR

1. first wet you hair until its soaking
2. then get around 2 quarter size amount of shampoo in your hand
3. rub it into your scalp with your FINGERTIPS (not nails)
4. wash out thoroughly
5. get around 2 to 3 quarter size amounts of conditioner and put on the tails and medium length of your hair
6. let it sit for about 5 minutes. (wash you face and body during the time if you don't want to waste time and water)
7. rinse out. repeat the process again if you want to.
8. Congrats! you now know how to wash you hair the correct way if you have dry hair!
