    I have exciting news for all the guys & girls who love staying bronzed year round, my girl Cindy now offers mobile tanning here in San Diego and giving HA.com readers a great deal, Buy one get one 50% off! Super great price, I feel like groupon right now. Haha, anyway, you can either go to her in Poway or she has her little set up ready and can come to you anywhere in San Diego, soo convenient. She also does amazing hair and nails so you can get a little bit of everything from her :) Oh and remember, this is not just for girls, she tans guys too.

    I know a lot of girls offer mobile tanning, but I have tried soooo many and hers is by far the best. Not only is her machine crazy high tech, with a super wide mist that it tans you almost instantly, she also has all these things other products she can mix in to the tanning solution, like shimmers, to make you extra glamorous. I’m OBSESSED! I literally looked like I had been in Mexico all month, so tan and bronzed. She also tans a lot of the Playmates including Jessica Burciaga, so she is very reliable as they all continuously tan with her.

    Those of you who sunless tan already know it’s sooooo much healthier for your skin than bed tanning AND you get way, way, wayyyy tanner. Of course it is temporary but I rather have a temporary tan than skin cancer later on :) Anyway, try it out, I guaranteeeeee you’ll love it! On the Go Glow is the perfect gift andddd works perrrfect for any event especially:

    Gotta be out the door but your hair’s lookin a dirty mess? Have no fear, Big Sexy Dry Shampoo is here! I am not sure how I survived for soooo long without this product because it is for sure one of my top 10 faves of all time! Sooooo helpful for those days where your hair could use a wash, but you’re really just not in the mood to take on that chore.

    I wash my hair every 2-3 days, so on day 3 Big Sexy Hair Dry Shampoo is my best friend. So long hats, hello dry shampoo! The product goes on like a hairspray and is designed to absorb extra oil that accumulates in your hair on those days you can’t get to washin.

    How it works: Spray on roots or anywhere else that appears dull or dirty. Leave product on for 2 minutes and then brush out. Bam, volumized, clean hair!

    Reasons I love Big Sexy Hair Dry Shampoo:

    * Perfect for traveling or days where you have no time to wash your hair.

    * Goes on clear, not white!

    * Comes in a cute travel size, however I love it so much next time I will supersize it.

    * Volumizes better than any shampoo or product I’ve used before. It leaves your hair so dry that it holds teasing even better.

    Big Sexy Hair Volumizing Dry Shampoo $12.00

    Calling all Prince & Princess’, this just in!!! Diamond, Cashmere & Pearl infused Shampoo & Conditioner! What’s fancier than that? While shopping for new hair care products this weekend, I was thrilled to learn about Diamond Dreams Shampoo & Conditioner by S Factor, a hair care line by TIGI. I love TIGI, but have never tried out S Factor’s line, so I decided to pick some up. I was sold the second the girl told me it was made with diamonds. Everyone loveeeees diamonds, cashmere and pearls, so what better way to wash your hair than drenching it in diamonds?

    TIGI S-Factor Diamond Dreams Shampoo $16.00 & Conditioner $ 23.00

    I was a bit skeptical at first, it seemed to good to be true, but honestly I am in loveeee with this line! Not only does it smell like a delicious Strawberries Wild smoothie from Jamba Juice, but it left my hair sooooooooooo smooth, shiny and easy to style. I really did feel like I had just washed my hair in diamonds and pearls after using it, so S Factor’s mission was accomplished! I loveeee my new shampoo!

    What’s also nice about this line is it’s Sulfate-Free which means it won’t fade your color, as well as contains some of the worlds most prestigious ingredients, Diamond Dust, Cashmere and Crushed Pearls which create a multi-dimensional shimmer adding depth and richness to your color while protecting and conditioning your hair.

    Favorite Parts of the Diamond Dreams line:

    * Leaves your hair soooo silky smooth, no really, smoother than ever!

    * It doesn’t weigh down your hair, it leaves your hair feeling light and manageable!

    * Smells delicious while washing, as well as after. Strawberries! Yum!

    * It has a real rich, nice, soapy lather.

    * Smooth and shiny hair with no other styling than blowdrying.

    * Pretty pink packaging.

    * Leaves your hair bouncy, flirty and very moisturized.

    Overall an amazingggg hair care line, the BEST I’ve used to date! 100% the investment, plus who can resist diamond shampoo?

    Everyone knows I loveeee the rain but unfortunately, with rain comes very bad hair days. I have found my hair to be a bit on the unruly side lately, and was in desperate need of an entire new hair care line. My old shampoo was also drying out my hair, fading my color, and not leaving my hair shiny enough. I have good hair even with bad products, so go ahead and call me greedy, but I wanted it better. I mentioned my problems to a few friends and word around the glamour girl town was that there is an amazinggg hair line out there called Moroccanoil, and that if I wanted super shiny, healthy hair, I had to try it out. I remember seeing this line in almost every magazine so off to Google I went to learn more, and here’s what I found out:

    Moroccanoil has quickly become one of the best-selling hair care lines in the world. It’s been featured on Kathy Lee & Hoda, and is one of InStyle Magazine’s 2010 Best Beauty Buys. From the mega-successful ORIGINAL Moroccan Oil Treatment to the Morroccanoil ShampooMoroccanoil Conditioner. This full line of products has girls, and the press going gaga. Moroccanoil products are designed to: • Restore elasticity • Infuse hair with shine and • Protect from environmental factors. Perfect just what I need. Adddddd to cart.

    Besides the magazines telling me about their products, my girlfriends also told me that their hair serum was by far the best serum around when it comes to smoothing out those unruly hairs. After trying the line, I can confirm that they are right! Moroccanoil hair products are magic! I combined the MOROCCANOIL® SHAMPOO, CONDITIONER & OIL and as a result have the shiniest, healthiest hair ever. The other day I was even stopped at a deli, a guy asked me if I was a Pantene Pro V hair model ahahah I said um no and quickly scurried off. Point is, these products are amazing :)

    Shine was NOT photo-shopped, 100% how it was pictured.

    Finally! A fake eyelash you can wear again and again! I’ve tried out a bunch of fake lashes in my day and hands down, the best fake lash award goes to Sonia Kashuk.

    Reasons I love the Sonia Kashuk lashes:

    1. They’re re-useable. Because of the thicker material, you can wash your entire face, drench it with water even and the lashes are fine. The shape and quality stay the same.

    2. They come pre curved to make applying a sinch!

    **Tip for applying a fake lash: Apply a THIN layer of glue and let it half dry for about 45-60 seconds. Do NOT apply the lash right after you apply the glue. Give it a bit to get sticky so it sticks to the lash the first try.

    I have worn mine at least 10 times and they still look brand new, unlike other brands you can only wear once. I hate fake lashes because they only way I like taking them off is to wash my face to avoid losing my real lashes, and usually after I get the fake lash wet they’re done for. Not these!

    Cost: They are 9.99 but that’s not that bad considering you can wear them at LEAST 20 times.

    Where to Buy: Target or online here.
