Garnier Nutrisse Ultra Coverage #VoxBox

*This is a sponsored blog from Garnier Nutrisse and Influenster as I received this product to test for free

So recently I was selected to receive a new #VoxBox from Influenster of a beautiful light brown (#630 Toffee Nut) hair dye from Garnier Nutrisse. I have used this brand a few times in the past so I really had no worries with trying out this new one. I set up my phone and did my first "unboxing" video which was kinda fun and something I think I may do more of.



Inside were:



After mixing them as instructed I kept the dye on for the recommended time of 30 minutes in going from a dark blonde color to this light brown. I must admit I was a little worried the color would properly cover my head as I was applying; the bottle felt so light but I ended up with just a little more than enough and I still applied that to be sure. My hair as you can see is just at my neck length so I imagine if it was longer than shoulder length you'd be better off grabbing two boxes to be sure. Instructions were very easy to follow and the gloves were not latex which is a huge plus for someone like me with (new) allergies!

I actually loved how easily it went on and it was not messy like most box colors. What I applied stayed on my head, not running down my neck or ears which is a huge bonus for me, I could just apply and not worry about it. I stepped in a shower to rinse it out, applied the conditioner as instructed and after rinsing I towel dried to see how the hair felt after drying naturally without adding additional product.

In Process (Don't Laugh! lol):




First we will start with color. It was spot on as shown on the box photos and I got complete coverage exactly how the title suggests. I was not planning on going darker with my hair yet but this color is so perfect, especially as a winter color. I was a bit disappointed in how much it dried my hair out though. The oil and conditioner gave me high hopes that this would not be an issue but even a week later my hair which is naturally oily is very dry and requires product each day for moisture. This is something I hope they work on.

Before:




After (with some curl):



All in all this is a great product for the color results and ease of use. Make sure you use a great oil to help your hair with hydration afterwards and I am sure you will be more than happy with the results! For now I'm a brunette until I am bored with this color or someone sends me something else ❤

Gluten-Free on I-95

I love traveling.. road trips, flying and even by boat. I just love to go. I didn't travel a lot as a kid.. Until I was 10 the only states I'd been to were my home state of Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, West Virginia and Washington DC. By the time I'd graduated I had added North Carolina and Kentucky. I live in Florida now but my first time here was in 2002 and at 38 years of age I have only added South Carolina, Georgia, Texas, New York (airport only) and Connecticut to the list as well as The Bahamas (Freeport) and Cuba. I still have a million places I want to go.. Now though it's all a bit trickier because of my allergies.. I have been diagnosed as allergic to gluten, cats, pine trees and a few other things. I seem to have reactions to other things and need to be tested for more in addition to other health issues I have that food can complicate. This makes traveling HARD. I have to be careful at every place I go.. eating at events is completely out of the qu

Lost Dreams

It's 2011, times are tough and everyone is out here grinding to get to the top... So many have lost their jobs due to the recession and have to take jobs doing whatever comes their way just to have food on the table and a roof over their head. Not many really want to flip burgers or work the local department store register but if you want to survive we do what we have to do. It's how the country works... if there was noone flipping burgers, where would we get our food? What does this have to do with dreams? well a lot.... As a child one of the questions we are asked most often is what do you want to be when you grow up? Some ponder this and reply with whatever their mommy or daddy does, others reply doctor or fireman, some just don't know. We are told we can do anything! We can concure the world if we work hard, pay attention and try.. then real world hits... you gradute school and have more bills than zeros on your check, you get pregnant, or hurt yourself and lose a s
