Today we are going to have some fun.. I do not have just one, I have two holos by Above the Curve! Now we all know I love a good holo and have my favorite colors but these are not green.. lol but they are amazing in their own way.
Oh boy here we go its Blue & Red Day!!
First is Blue Raspberry.. its a intense blue holo that just glows in the sunlight! The swatches are three coats, without a top coat. I had no problems with application. This one is part of the Jolly Rancher Collection. From what I understand so is Watermelon.

I did for real, I felt in love with this color the minute I laid eyes on it!

How about a another view? Hello Holo!! I love Jolly Rancher candies and this does remind me of the favor.

Even in the shade it was a wonder to look at..

How could you not wander around looking for sunlight just so you can stare at your nails??
Now Watermelon is a bit different.. its a bright sunny red! I had no problems with application of this one either.

This one a really bright red pink scattered holo.. You can not see any holo effect indoors, once you go outside.. you can see then really lightly there pink/gold holographic shine. Its amazing and really hard to catch in photographs. This was three coats and no top coat..
I was surprised on this one, its so pretty and I don’t even care for most reds..

I thought it would be fun to do something different! I am going to test out Rafflecopter again (it wouldn’t work for me last time so I am trying again)
Ready to giggle? This is how I felt trying to setup Rafflecopter:

Ok on to the Giveaway part of this post!
We are giving away one bottle of each! It’s Blue & Red day!! I bet they would look awesome in stripes or some kind of artwork
a Rafflecopter giveaway

Now for the fun part! Lets do a giveaway!! The polishes are being donated for this giveaway by humm ME! I hope I setup the giveaway correctly.. so
You can find Watermelon and Blue Raspberry on Overall Beauty as well as other Above the Curve nail polish colors. AS well as Above the Curve. I haven’t done a giveaway in a while for nail polish so I thought it would be fun to do these two. Also this is open till May 25th 2013.. US and International!!

As you may know by now I love all natural skincare and haircare products. Ok I mean LOVE all natural products. This week I got to test out Neuma haircare products and its been a blast! All this company takes being eco-friendly to a whole new level and give you a amazing haircare line to go along with it. Sulfate-Free, no animal testing woot! Vegan! They have a whole line of all kinds of hair care products, from styling to shampoos and conditioners.
Now who are they?

- Neuma Brand:
Neuma takes a unique approach to haircare, as the first completely transparent brand, listing all of the ingredients in its products (available for download on its site). This allows the educated consumer to make an informed decision regarding what kinds of chemicals, oils, and extracts they expose their skin to, as opposed to other brands who often operate under a veil of secrecy and gimmicky marketing.

Available only in a small selection of salons, Neuma’s products are 100% vegan, never tested on animals, and produced in a 100% certified wind power lab. Take a fresh look at your haircare.

They have zero:
synthetic fragrance
sulfates
parabens
1,4-dioxane
phthalates
glutens
neurotoxins
aluminum compounds
glycols* > this is found in their hair sprays
formaldehyde donors
ureas
carcinogens

Talk about having nothing nasty in your haircare products! They have shampoos and conditioners for just about every type of hair. AND even cooler?? Got a hair type and texture but you want it to behave? They have a PDF you can download that has what they call Hair Cocktails. Which means you can take a few of their products and create another product that is just what you are looking for! Visit here: Styling Cocktails

As someone with fine hair, I want VOLUME! Ok did I say that loud enough? So for me I am trying their styling products to get just that. For starters their conditioner? Doesn’t weigh my hair done.

So far I have tested two different types of shampoo and conditioners. I LOVE their neuMoisture shampoo! Now as with all haircare products that are sulfate free you got to get used to using them. They do not foam like you maybe used too. And you need less shampoo to clean your hair, and less conditioner too. I have long hair and use about a quarter size amount. It rinses right out as well. So there is no need for lots of time doing it.
Oh yea we got a giveaway too!! Click on the image that will take you to Facebook. Like my Fan page (if you do already, awesome! Just sign up like you have before) This is one of the best giveaways I have got to do for natural haircare products.

Its a brand new year and with it the first giveaway! Reviva Labs has been kind enough to offer not one but two skincare products for us to giveaway!
First off is Hawaiian Seaweed Facial Cleansing Milk which just has to be one of my top most favorite in cleansers that Reviva Labs offers.
Check out my review here: Hawaiian Seaweed Facial Cleansing Milk Review

What they say about it:
Hawaiian Seaweed Facial Cleansing Milk is a mineral-rich, milky seaweed cleanser that helps to eliminate toxins as it cleanses. Hawaiian Seaweed’s valuable minerals help energize skin as the milky cleanser easily lifts out dirt, makeup and environmental debris. Hawaiian Seaweed’s magnesium helps soften skin, too! With an exact amount of proper viscosity vegetable oil, this formula is an effective day/night cleanser for any skin type.

Collagen Regeneration Cream what they say about it:
It’s known that sun-damaged skin contains damaged “DNA” collagen. Thus, collagen’s water-binding capacity is reduced and water loss, skin firmness and texture are affected.
Our special Collagen Regeneration Formula (with Tissue Growth Factors) can help reverse sun damage and help promote “healthy” collagen growth!
By blending Palmitoyl Tripeptide-3, a natural growth factor, with other growth factors and wrinkle-smoother ingredients, we created our unique formula. One that can help repair environmentally damaged collagen as it helps stimulate new collagen production.
Competitor peptide, retinol, and collagen products may help stimulate collagen production, but the new collagen copies the DNA damaged cells creating imperfect collagen replication. It’s because their products do not help repair damaged collagen.
Reviva’s Collagen Regeneration Cream is distinct because it can both help repair damaged cells and stimulate new collagen. So current imperfect collagen can be “corrected” and new collagen can flourish. This renewed collagen combination boosts moisture and can help improve tissue structure, helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles, and enhances overall skin tone and texture.
What’s more, our rich blend of ingredients, including the potent antioxidant CoQ10 helps protect against future damage. Collagen Regeneration Cream can be used alone or “layered” over various anti-aging serums or combined with other anti-aging treatments in your beauty regimen.

Check out the link below to sign up for your chance to win a set for yourself!! If you have never tried any Reviva Labs products here is a great way to get your hands on not one but two!
