How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Freshen Up Your Spring Beauty Routine! #Giveaway

in Uncategorized on 04/11/15

Yesterday, when I looked into my rearview mirror, I was a little shocked at the tired looking woman peering back at me.  I saw someone with dark circles under her eyes, not a stitch of make-up on, and her hair in need of some attention.  The rain was beating down on my closed sun-roof and I found myself longing for those lazy summer days and sun-kissed skin!  Here’s the thing.  I’m not that girl! For the most part, I take the time to take care of myself and my skin.  So clearly, it’s time to kick it up a notch!

With winter finally coming to an end, and the smell of spring in the air it’s time to get back into the swing of things, start to once again make myself a priority and get beautified!  It’s time to finally free our hair from winter toques, shed the extra layers of sweaters and enjoy the beautiful sunshine. Unfortunately, the long, harsh Canadian winter can leave hair feeling dry, your skin longing for nourishment and your smile a little less bright!  Thankfully,   P&G wants to offer us solutions and help us be ready for fun, spring activities.

OLAY

Has winter wind left your hair lifeless? Don’t fret! The Pantene Dry Defy system is designed for women with chronically dry hair that’s lost its natural movement and shine. It’s is perfect if you’re hair is feeling a little lifeless from the winter wind. This is a three step system that works to replenish lost moisture and block damage sites, where it’s most easily lost. The three step system includes an intense hydrating shampoo and conditioner, as well as a Velvet Crème Infusion, which absorbs into hair and starts working immediately, leaving your hair soft and velvety for all those mid-afternoon strolls and trips to the park!  Bonus, it smells divine!

Want to make sure your favourite hair colour doesn’t fade?

defy-Collage-700x560

Of course!  Look no further –  Pantene Fade Defy helps your colour stay resilient and vibrant. This collection includes a shampoo and conditioner duo formulated with three amino acids found naturally in the hair’s core that help colour form more intensely in the hair fibre. You can apply Fade Defy Vibrant Color Magnifying Gloss afterwards to seal it in and avoid damage!  I find it’s important to use a colour protecting shampoo and conditioner every time I wash my hair.  Have to protect those highlights!

 

Want to rejuvenate your skin? Experience Olay’s new Fresh Outlast Body Washes formulated to work with skin’s natural pH. They are lower in sulfates and contain 3X more mild cleansers than before! The upgraded body washes come in four premium scents, like Cooling White Strawberry & Mint, made with essential oil fragrances, for a fresh clean that outlasts your day and keeps that spring in your step!

3D-white-700x300

Longing for pearly whites?  When you drink coffee every day like I do, (and maybe the occasional glass of red wine) you have to do what you can to keep that smile it’s best!  You can whiten your teeth with the new Crest 3D White® Brilliance Toothpaste which works to enhance your smile’s beauty with an Illuminating Complex. Pair it along with new Crest 3D White Brilliance Boost –a polishing treatment designed to amplify your smile’s brilliant whiteness.

 Pantene, Olay, and Crest want to help kickstart your spring regime with a gift box including all the things you need to help you get started!
