Return of The Curls presents Holiday Trunk Show

All my RVA naturals, transitioners, and whomever else simply wants to come out and attend a great event you'll have your opportunity to this Sunday at Return of The Curls Holiday Trunk Show! I attended the event last year and had a wonderful time, there were tons of naturals there, along with some great vendors and even a few hair demos. I left with some great goodies last year including some beautiful jewelery and a few hair products. The event is being held at the Richmond Magnuson Grand Hotel from 2pm-6pm, tickets are $5 in advance and $7 at the door! I would also like to mention that I will be speaking this year, yes yours truly has been selected as the featured Fashion Blogger for the event. I will be talking about dressing for your body type during the holidays and will also be covering this seasons trends, and one of my favorite things to do thrifting! When I go to events like this I normally bring my sis along and a few of my girls who are also natural, like myself a few of my naturals friend wear their hair blown out majority of the time. When we get to the events and they see naturals rocking their curls they always say "I should've rocked my curls"! Ladies wear your hair how you like natural is natural if you don’t have a relaxer, keratin, silkner or any other type of chemical straighter you're natural in my book. We have to stop this divide in the natural hair community it’s what I like to call the "you can’t sit with us" syndrome. Just because some choose to rock their curls and others prefer to blow their hair out doesn’t make you more or less natural; as long as your hair is healthy that’s all that matters (rant over)! So whether you're a natural that prefers straighten/ blown out hair or you’re a natural that loves to rock your fro please come out and support this event there will be a little something for everyone!

Seventh Generation Skin Serum

Thanks to Lucky Magazine and Seventh Generation I received a free sample of Seventh Generation Skin Serum. I was super excited about receiving this product as its all natural, and with me having such sensitive skin its always a plus when there aren't any harmful ingredients in my facial or body products. My beauty regimen is pretty simple, so I didn't have any issues incorporating the serum into my routine. I have tons of #AllNaturalStyleSecrets, I'm an advocate for using all natural products as much as possible. One of my favorites is Apple Cider Vinegar (with the mother, of course). I use ACV for everything, its great to clarify your hair with, and of course I use it on my face. It works as a really good toner and seems to clear up blemishes without being harmful to your skin. My night time beauty regimen consist of me washing my face with cool water, and using a little ACV on a cotton ball to get all the oil and dirt off of my face. I began using Seventh Generation Skin Serum after my nightly ACV application. I was pleasantly surprised by the soothing effect this product seem to have on my skin, it has a really nice consistency, and a pleasant scent. I would recommend this product for those with sensitive skin, and those looking for a product that's really nourishing! I will definitely be trying other products from this wonderful all natural line!








Pros: all natural, a little goes a long way, wont irritate sensitive skin, pleasant smell, hydrates skin really well 

Cons: may leave your skin a little oily (however I have very oily skin anyway)
