Human ♥ Nature: INTENSIVE HAIR MASK

I was in college when I got bored with my usual pony tailed long hair so I ended up in a salon and subjected my hair to a hair treatment (Hair relax). 

I am satisfied with the results at first. Who wouldn't be? Beautiful, soft, shiny, straight hair. But the satisfaction doesn't stay long. I end up frustrated after a month due to FRIZZY HAIR, DRY HAIR, ITCHY SCALP, and HAIR FALL!! (argghhh.. nightmare!). I tried different hair products to remedy those but to no avail, all of them failed. 

So I ended up with a more damaged hair.

2 months ago I started using Human ♥ Nature's Avocado and Gugo Bark Intensive Hair Mask in Rosemary scent. My hair becomes more manageable, less frizzy and with less / minimal hair fall. (Good Lord, thank you very much!! ♥)

What's good about it?

They claim it to be 100% NO Harmful chemical such as Parabens and Phthalates, formaldehyde and other toxic substances, which most commercial shampoos and conditioners usually have. These substance is what makes your hair soft and smooth. But in HNH Intensive Hair mask, it's the oil and natural extract coming from different plants that makes your hair soft and beautiful.

What I love about it?

* I love the Minty smell. I also love the cooling effect on my scalp (while the mask is on), it makes me feel relax.
* Soft, Manageable hair (my hairs' a little bit stubborn just like me hahaha,, )
* Less / Minimal hairfall 
* Inexpensive (50g Hairmask is Php 99.75 only)
* Going to Salon (unless I badly need a haircut) will never be an option again (at least for me).

WATER MARBLE NAIL ART

3-days ago I came across Simplelittepleasues' YouTube videos about water marble nail art. After watching lots of videos for almost 1 and a half hour, I told myself that I am also gonna try it out.

So today, I went to SM Manila (with hubby). I bought 5 different colors of nail polish at Watsons (those are cheap nail polish which costs 17.50 each).

Since I am very much excited to do my first water marble nail art, as soon as I put my bag aside, i started preparing the things / materials I needed for my work of art.. hahaha..

I used Pink and black color since I am a sucker for that combination.

and voila... the finished product of my first attempt.. a not so stellar nail art.. hehehe..

neon pink-pure black combination
hmmm.. not bad for a first timer, right?.. :)

here's some problem though.
* a bit messy when doing it.
* my nail polish dries up easily so dragging it to my desired design is a bit difficult. ( i have to redo it over and over again, so a lot of wasted polish).
* there are some air / water bubbles that formed on my nail art (maybe because I used nail polish that is not suited for water marbling).

But all in all, I am a bit satisfied with my work.

Am I gonna do this again?! Hell yeh. I'll just wait for my NYX nail polish that I ordered online to arrive. Maybe that will give me a better result.. ♥

For tutorials / steps on how to do a water marble nail art, just go over YouTube and you'll find a lot of videos there.. :)

Go watch and try it too :)
