Sauce Beauty Haircare

Beauty Bag Dolls  I have a brand new brand to my blog and its a wonderful one for your haircare routine! Sauce Beauty is haircare created by a founder who combined two of his favorite passions haircare and food to make formulas for the hair that are good for your hair and scalp. I am tried out four of their product and I am amazed that my hair has a daily good hair day! To learn about the four amazing products I have been indulging in from Sauce Beauty read on.
This haircare has changed my hair to amazing. Sauce Beauty is made with the best ingredients I have seen.

First up is the amazing Sauce Beauty Intense Repair Shampoo in Mint and Peppermint Oil. First off you will notice the scent it is amazing and invigorating I love it. Next you will notice that it goes to work at yes cleansing your hair but I can feel that it is also working on my scalp to cleanse and nourish it. My hair feels moisturized, fresh and clean. If you though your hair was great after just shampooing then your jaw will drop when you the Sauce Beauty Intense Repair Condition in Coconut Cream. The Coconut Cream smells like a sweet treat! This conditioner like the shampoo is free of sulfates and parabens and is color safe but for me it is a gentle and truly moisturizing which is what my hair really needs right now. It is also creamy and glides into my hair. After keeping it in for 3 minutes I rinse it out and my hair feels so soft and luxurious! If you think your hair is perfect at that point then great but for me I love another step.

For me I do like to use hair masks I use one at least two or three times a week most are average until Sauce Beauty came into my life. The Sauce Beauty Deep Moisture Mask in Guacamole Whip. This smells like a jar of goodness (I mean everything I have used smells so incredibly good). What it has done for my hair is just amazing! It has helped dehydration and frizz! I just take a generous amount (my hair is long) and massage it from root to ends and wait no more than 5 minutes and after I rinse my hair is so soft and touchable. This never weighed my hair down like other hair masks. I adore this one and will never be without it. Now on days that I don't use the hair mask I love the Sauce Beauty Leave-In Conditioner and Detangler Tzatziki taming spray. I use this spray on my towel dried hair and then just comb and style as usual. This leave in conditioner is light not like others that have weight my hair down and it truly help me at this time of the year with static. It also helps to leave my hair feeling so soft and touchable. It also detangles which is what my hair needs!

All of the Sauce Beauty haircare products are amazing and beauty bag must haves that get a 5 $$$$$ as well as EXTRA LOVE FROM ANNA! I highly recommend these products to everyone and you can even gift these for the holiday season to anyone who wants beautiful healthy hair!

They came out with a new product called Wonder Drops Hair Mask Frizz Smoothing with avocado oil. This is the best thing that has happened to my hair because it has been acting up and I have been trying everything to keep it smooth and sleek. Read on to learn more.
The John Frieda Wonder Drops Hair Mask is the easiest and most effective hair mask to add to your weekly treatment routine for soft manageable hair! 

The John Frieda Wonder Drops Hair Mask is just five minutes of your time once a week.(you can use it more often as your hair needs but that is my preference) After shampooing and conditioning with your favorite John Frieda products squeeze out any excess moisture and massage the Wonder Drops Hair Mask onto your hair evenly from root to ends and leave on for up to 5 minutes which is exactly what I do. The rise your hair thoroughly to reveal soft smooth hair. I love this hair mask it smells really nice and after styling and drying my hair it really feels and looks soft and kicks the frizz. My hair feels soft and revitalized after using the Wonder Drops Hair Mask and I see myself using this weekly at a minimum depending on my hair. The come if a few varieties and you can click any of my links to match your hair to what its needs are. This is a 5 $$$$$ and gets EXTRA LOVE FROM ANNA!

NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 March 2018

Hello to all of my lovely #BeautyBagDolls today I have for you my review of the March 2018 NewBeauty TestTube 2.0. While I know the post is a little late I must note my box arrived late but I am still so happy to have received it and I am able to review it for you while there are still some available for purchase. This box has a total of 8 products seven of which are inside and one that you get a free promo card with coupon code to redeem. Now please read on to learn what is packed inside this months NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 March 2018.
Loving the NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 March 2018 it is filled with many beauty bag must haves!

First product is the Dphue Acv Hair Rinse. This is a full size product you use once a week in your hair to clean out the build up of shampoo and hair products in your hair. This really left my hair very cleans and shiny without drying it. Next is Dermarche Labs Roloxin Lift Instant Wrinkle Smoothing Mask. This is a great mask to apply to your skin in the morning before applying makeup because it smooth's out lines and wrinkles. I noticed lines, wrinkles and pores were diminished and I am in love with my new AM mask. Now the third product which is full size nail polish is a great shade of light pink which of course I love course I am going to be picking up from the Lechat Dare To Wear Lacquer brand. It lasted week without chipping but I did use a top coat. The fourth product is Kenra Platinum Luxe One Leave-In . This leave is one I adore because my hair can be wet or dry to apply so I can toss this in my makeup bag and refresh my dry hair in the middle of my work day, which is a definite plus! So far so good with the NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 March 2018.

The fifth item is another full size product and it the Grande Cosmetics Hydraplump liquid Lipstick in Red Delicious. I love the Grande cosmetics brand and have reviewed this exact item in different shades. The Red Delicious is a perfect shade of read but I do note that you must use a lip liner. The next product is also one I have used before it is the Kocostar Long Hair Therapy which is just fabulous and just type Kocostar in my search box to read my full review. The next product is the MDSolarScience Daily Anti-Aging Moisture SPF 30, Mineral Crème SPF 50 and Mineral Tinted Cream SPF 30. These are awesome moisturizer to have and use since they are filled with SPF and we all need SPF all year round. I keep this in my purse to use and to touch up through the day. Finally a Nutrafol Gift Card for a Free 30-Day Supple of their supplement's was included this is an $88 dollar value and I have placed my order so as soon as it gets here I will begin using them.

I am so glad I got to try out 8 products from the NewBeauty TestTube 2.0 March 2018 you have to try this sampling program out! I give this TestTube 2.0 a 5 $$$$$ because it is wide variety of beauty products from skincare to haircare along  this month! You will be really happy to discover something new so pick it up today before it sells out and I am already excited for the next!

Extra Love From Anna:  I must give extra love to a sampling program that includes full size product that are just amazing for the price!

Hair Food Moisture Shampoo/Conditioner/Mask infused w/Honey Apricot


Hair Food is by far has my hair looking and feeling so good #BeautyBagDolls! I have been using the Hair Food Moisture Shampoo/Conditioner/Hair Mask and my hair has really responded really well. I am really happy with how this three step system has improved my hair, the moisture level has really gone up. From all the heat styling my hair was feeling more on the dry side until now. The Hair Food Moisture Infuse system that has Honey and Apricot Fragrance is all made silicone free, paraben free and mineral oil free. That is what I try to look for most of the time when try a new hair care system.
Hair Food Apricot Shampoo - 17.9 oz. Image 1 of 1.

When I use this I follow the basic wet my hair, lather with the Hair Food Moisture Shampoo and rinse I repeat that one more time. I have fairly long hair so I use a pump and half the first time and one pump the second time. The scent will immediately hit your nose because it smells so nice and refreshing! It cleans my and left it feeling hydrated when I follow up with a pump and half of conditioner I let the Hair Food Moisture Conditioner Infused with Honey Apricot Fragrance sit in my hair for about a minute before I rinse. I use conditioner each and every time however, with the Hair Food Moisture Hair Mask Infused with  Honey Apricot Fragrance  I use that twice a week after cleansing and conditioning and I leave that in my hair for 5-10 minutes depending on how much time I have. That step truly helps my hair when it is practically dry. I cannot get over the fact at how amazing this line of hair care is. Hair Food defines what I thought about cleansing my hair. Hair Food gently cleanses, conditions and nourishes my hair without leaving it feeling heavy or stripped of its natural oils. It is left feeling moisturized yet light and it smells so wonderful! I love this system and the Hair Food brand I also review their dry shampoo recently you can read that here. I give the  Hair Food Moisture Shampoo/Conditioner/Mask infused with Honey Apricot Fragrance a 5 $$$$$ and highly recommend this for your beauty bag. I am absolutely giving Hair Food EXTRA LOVE FROM ANNA!

Coco & Co Coconut Oil for Beauty

Hello #BeautyBagDolls today I am very excited to be bringing you a review from an awesome company called Coco & Co they are the experts in the purest virgin coconut oil and over the past few months I have become a huge fan of coconut oil for beauty and what they were kind enough to send me is their coconut oil for beauty of course. I was sent the 8 ounce Best Seller Bestie Jar and the 2 ounce Mini Jar. These two are the perfect size for me and right now I am going to traveling to see family and for work so the 2 ounce mini jar is going with me everywhere whereas the 8 ounce Best Seller Bestie Jar is moving from my bathroom to my night stand so I can use it on my cuticles and legs before bed as wells as my hair to tame static and on my eye lashes to promote their growth.
I am never with out my Coco & Co coconut oil. It is a beauty bag must that comes in convenient sizes for you to take with you on the go when needed.

Coconut oil has endless possibilities of uses and the Coco & Co coconut oil is "made from freshly pressed coconut milk, chilled and separated, this coconut oil remains raw and heat is never used in it's processing." This is clean and 100% raw coconut oil. I find that the scent to very light and fresh which is something that I love. It is so pure that it helps sooth my sensitive skin. My face gets the perfect amount of hydration it plumps my skin and is glowing! The moisture lasts all day when using the Coco & Co coconut oil for beauty. This has also worked a miracle on my dry hair and scalp. The weather has turned to be so cold and my hair has responded by being so dry that it almost hurts. Twice a week I have used this as a hair mask getting it into my scalp and down to the ends of my hair and leaving it in for about an hour and rinsing with shampoo as usual and my hair has turned around in literally one treatment. No more dry hair and static are gone for good. I only do this twice a week and my hair has completely gone back to normal but with added shine. In all honesty the Bestie Jar has become my beauty best friend as well as my travel jar because I have taken it with me. The Coco & Co Coconut Oil is a beauty bag must for all and gets a 5 $$$$$ for of course how good it is for you and for the fact that its just one product that is 100% coconut oil that you can use in so many places for your beauty!

Extra Love from Anna: I am in love with all of the products that were sent to me from Coco & Co.  The two jars of coconut oil that were sent to me are amazing!   I hope to collaborate with Coco & Co again in the future and I want to Thank them for their kindness!

New Beauty TestTube It's a 10 Takeover September 2016

Hello to all of my gorgeous #BeautyBagDolls I have a very special review for you from New Beauty. It is their September 2016 TestTube and it was a take over from It's a 10. The TestTube was filled with 8 products from the It's a 10. This is an awesome brand that will care for your hair! I am a long hair girl who is always on the hunt for the next best hair product to keep my long locks healthy and styled just right! I was super excited when I opened the TestTube and laid my eyes on 3 full size It's a 10 and 5 generous sample/travel size products. This is a TestTube I cannot stop smiling about or using for that matter!  Buy yours and learn more about New Beauty TestTube It's a 10 takeover September 2016.

The New Beauty TestTube It's a 10 Takeover is a full of beauty bag musts!


I know you want to know what exactly is inside and if I loved it because I have never used the It's a 10 brand until now! The first product is the it's a 10 Miracle Whipped Shampoo this is a full size product you will receive in your TestTube and it is amazing! Smells great and truly cleans your hair with out drying it out! I love it so much! It is "chock-full of good-for-your-hair ingredients like protein and phytonutrients, this sulfate-free offering safely cleanses hair without stripping any color." Next is the It's a 10 Miracle Defrizzing Gel an it is a miracle because it controls frizz instantly on days that I curl my hair I add this and I have perfectly curled hair with out any frizz! "This lightweight, never greasy gel makes flyaways and unwanted frizz things of the past while its formula imparts just the right amount of shine." I will not curl my hair without this and you get a full size in your TestTube.  Next is the It's a 10 Miracle Styling Balm and I don't want to say that this is my most favorite styling product from It's a 10 but its pretty close because OMG my hair looks so perfect! I smooth this onto my hair after its towel dried and then style and my hair looks and feels amazing! It doesn't feel done just soft and it has bounce! "Reduce breakage, hydrate your hair and protect your color with this post-wash balm that delivers the perfect amount of volume that your strands won’t be able to live without." I will not be without this and I am so happy this was the third full size product in the TestTube.  The next two products are generous sample sizes of the It's a 10 Miracle Moisture Shampoo and It's a 10 Miracle Daily Conditioner. These are both so good for your hair and smell amazing. The shampoo left my hair clean, shiny and soft while the conditioner did not weight my hair down like others instead it left my hair feeling smooth! It's a 10 Miracle Moisture Shampoo is "much like a green juice for your hair, this good-for-all-hair-types shampoo boasts 10 incredible nutrients to repair and prevent damage from the inside out."  It's a 10 Miracle Daily Conditioner is "your lifeline for unruly hair (think dry, over-processed or coarse), this do-it-all conditioner infuses locks with amino acids and vitamins to gently bring it back to life." I love packing these to with me when I am traveling. They are the perfect size to take with you and still have your favorite haircare products with you.

The next three products are very nice size travel size products as well that will last you long enough to know if you want to buy a full size which I do and I will be purchasing. The It's a 10 Potion 10 Miracle Styling Potion is "the ultimate weapon for anyone who constantly styles their hair, this weightless cream goes on smooth and leaves hair baby-soft, ridding any evidence of breakage after just one use." I can agree with the statement 100% because my hair feels so soft and I have only used this a few times since receiving it! Now for anyone with dry hair like mine which seems to happen instantly when fall arrives I have the perfect product for you. The It's a 10 Miracle Leave-in Product is a spray you just spritz onto you wet hair and it adds shine and moisture without weighing your hair down at all! I will always take this with me even when I travel because it protects your hair aganst thermal heat damage. It is "a cult classic for a reason, this multi-use leave-in product tackles a bevy of different hair issues, delivering both immediate and long-term results with each use."  Finally, It's a 10 Miracle Hair Mask will add shine and hydrate your hair all while detangling in about 3 minutes if your in hurry or leave it in for 15 then rinse for amazing hair that has body and shine! I love this product so much I am purchasing the full size! I cannot live without these products and I am so happy I got to try them all out from New Beauty TestTube It's a 10 Takeover September 2016 you have to try this sampling program out! I give this TestTube a 5 $$$$$ because it is a deal for amazing haircare products and the next one coming out in November 2016 will change everything it is called 2.0 New Beauty TestTube promising to be "Bigger Tube. More Products. Even better solutins than before." I must say I am excited!

Extra Love From Anna:  I must give extra love to a sampling program that includes full size product that are just amazing for the price! The It's a 10 takeover is a great collaboration and I am glad it happened because it introduced me to a brand I never tried and now I love it! I hope that New Beauty TestTube does a Takeover TestTubeagain with a makeup brand they featured in the past like It Cosmetics or Tarte. I look forward to the TestTube 2.0 debuting in November 2016. I want to thank New Beauty for sending me the September 2016 TestTube to review for all of you! New Beauty your generosity is amazing thank you and Thank you to Nicole!
