Product of the Day: Got 2b Smooth Operator

Hey all!

Just wanted to share with you a product I've fallen in love with:
Got 2b Smooth Operator - Smoothing Satin Drops.

I was never one to spend a lot of time on my hair after taking a bath or shower. I'm far too lazy to even bother blow drying (haha). On a really good day, I straighten my bangs. That's it.

So, after towel drying, I just put a generous amount of this product in my hair and let it do its thing. Takes no more than 5 minutes and presto! Great, healthy looking, shiny hair that's tangle-free. Unlike some other products, this doesn't leave your hair greasy looking, which is great. Your hair just looks healthy, as if you didn't put any product in it at all.

It leaves my hair smooth to the touch, silky, shiny and easy to brush! I always get compliments from people who say that my hair is so shiny, and well, this is my secret!

Also, my hair gets frizzy and voluminous very easily, and this product helps tame that problem with minimal effort. This bottles lasts ages, because you only need a couple drops each time, so great value!

Hope you like it too!

Smashbox Lip Glosses Review

Smashbox is by far my favorite brand for lip glosses, and, being a beauty junkie, I have tried many. I love them because they come in a gorgeous array of colours, are smooth and stay on your lips for ages, and look great alone or layered on top of lip liners or lipsticks. They contain Vitamin E, which soothes and moisturizes lips.

My all time favorite color out of the Smashbox lip gloss collection is the shade "Candid". Its a neutral, pinky-gold colour that is subtly beautiful when worn alone, but can also add a glamorous shimmer to any lipstick, stain, or liner.

The other colors I own so far are:

- "Pout", a semi-sheer bubble gum pink with very minimal shimmer
- "Luster", a shimmery sheer champagne nude color with a hint of baby pink
- "Radiant", a dark plum color with gold shimmer
- "Tease", a bright berry color without shimmer (great for a night out!)
- "Candy", a bright sugary pink with small pink shimmer
- "Aura", a shimmery muted pink

I really want to buy "Starlit" or "Siren", both are red shades, perfect to wear for a pop of shimmer on top of red lipstick.

Swatches and other photos to be posted soon!
