Tea Tree Natural Shampoo Review

Today I am coming to you with a post I have always wanted to do, a beauty review! Ever since I changed my hair color I have tried to keep up and introduce new products that would keep my hair strong and healthy. That's why I was so excited to review this shampoo.

 I have heard a lot about tea tree for beauty products and even with essential oils. It is supposed to be a natural source of an antiseptic. There have been skin products for reducing/treating acne, so naturally I was curious on what it would do for my hair. When Maple Holistics sent me their Tea Tree shampoo I was a little hesitant because it was so thick. The first time I used it I didn't see a difference in my hair and scalp until later on in the day and by third day hair. I noticed that my hair felt more fresh and clean, and this may be TMI but my scalp was less itchy. I used this shampoo in the middle of South Carolina figuring out if it wanted to be hot or cold outside, and it kept my scalp hydrated when it needed to be but not oily. It didn't seem to dry my scalp like most shampoos do. The other questionable aspect of it was whether or not it would take away the color in my hair. The first time I used regular shampoo in my hair rather than purple it made my hair look brassy. But this shampoo didn't affect my color at all. Needless to say it passed all my tests!

 I washed my hair numerous times and I still have a ton, so a little goes a long way. I think this is an awesome product because it is an all natural, cruelty free item that is a necessary item for everyone. It's been hard to find those (at least for me) that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. I would definitely recommend getting their free samples sent to you that way you can test out all the great products. Then let me know which one is your favorite! 

Thanks for reading, y'all! xo

Floral Puffer Vest & Lace Detail

Wednesday, December 13, 2017











Top- Gap // Denim- Gap // Vest- Marshall's, floral vests here & here // Shoes- Banana Republic, similar herehere, and here // Earrings- Old, similar here// Rings- Heart of Stone & Marley Lilly

I'm not going to even try to hide the fact that this is a girl's top. But if we're being honest here, sometimes the girls stuff is cuter (and cheaper!!) than the women's. I love the detail of the lace on the sleeve because it's something that in all my time researching clothing and fashion I have never seen. I just wish they came in women's and girl's sizes. *cough Ehem, Gap! *cough

Another piece that I love is this vest, which I believe is still available at Marshall's. It will just depend in your store. It's reversible, so in my book that's like pockets on a dress, i.e. SOLD! So definitely check out the Marshall's or T.J.Maxx near you.

So the time of freedom has arrived! My finals were over last week, so I had a day off yesterday and I honestly didn't know what to do with myself. Now I can truly enjoy the holidays, and y'all will be very proud to know that all of the major gifts I needed to buy have been bought and are waiting to be wrapped! So i'm patting myself on the back since I am the typical procrastinator. But i'm cheering you if you still have your shopping to do, because like I said, this is the first year I am done before Christmas day! If y'all need some more encouragement on gifts go to my favorite gift finder Haley from Sequins and Things.
