Two little discoveries - and a giveaway!

Hi everyone!

Hope you're having an awesome weekend. It was a gorgeous day in NYC - temps in the 40s. Yay! I know, I know - 40 degrees is still cold but it's been a while since we've broken out of the 30s! :-)

Last week I tried two items that I want to share with you. They are Sally Hansen Instant Cuticle Remover and Nexxus Mousse Plus Volumizing Foam Styler.

Discovery #1:
I discovered the Instant Cuticle Remover while watching MissChievous' recent nail tutorial on YouTube. Julia swears by this product. I had been using another cuticle removing product for some time but decided to give this one a try. This product is da-bomb! When I used it for the first time, it just whipped my very raggedy cuticles right into shape! It simply dissolves all your dried-out cuticle skin and reveals very neat, healthy-looking cuticles. After I applied polish, my nails looked like they had a professional manicure! I now look forward to doing my own manicures and saving money on visits to the nail salon.

You can find Sally Hansen Instant Cuticle Remover at most major drugstores including CVS, Walgreens and Duane Reade. This products retails for approximately $5.49. A great deal!

Discovery #2:

I decided to give this Nexxus product a try after running out of my current mousse. As you can tell in the photo, this is the 2 oz. size which I purchased for under $3 (sorry, I lost the receipt and can't remember the exact price). I've used it several times and I really like it. It gave my hair lots of soft body and shine -- my hair didn't have that "crunchy" texture that some mousse products can give. I like it for those low-humidity days that don't require a lot of hairspray or heavier products. An added plus is that it does not contain alcohol which can dry out your hair. This is a product I look forward to re-purchasing.

You can also find Nexxus Mousse Plus Volumizing Foam Styler at most major drugstores or on drugstore.com.

Now on to more exciting things...I am doing a giveaway!

One lucky person will win a brand-new bottle of the Sally Hansen Instant Cuticle Remover. I just love this product so much that I basically want to "pay it forward"! :-)
