My New Red Organic Color Systems Hair Color
Two weeks ago, Amy Gabrielson of Organic Hail Salon DFW in Dallas, TX (who also goes between Organic Hair Salon & Nail Spa in Nantucket Island, MA) did my ammonia free red hair color using Organic Color Systems. We stayed within the copper bronze family and I absolutely love how the color turned out! My hair both looks and feels great…soft, hydrated and full of body. Plus, the color is still holding up quite nicely after a few weeks. So here’s the deal on Organic Color Systems…it’s NOT an all organic... Read The Rest →

Product Review: Talking Tata Harper Repairative Face Moisturizer
Tata Harper’s Repairative Moisturizer is an ultra-hydrating natural face moisturizer that leaves my skin looking and feeling supple with a fresh healthy glow.

Most facial moisturizers for dry/mature skin usually result in a pimple or two by the end of the day on my very blemish-prone face... Read The Rest →
