Spend vs Splurge Feedback from the CEW Giveaway


I loved reading everyone’s entries last week for the CEW swag bag. Below is a compilation of people’s favorite splurges and savings. Hopefully this list can help you out as much as it’s helped me! Overall it seems like most gals save on mascara and eye shadow while most are willing to splurge on anything having to do with their skin. I really want to try the DuWop powder for this summer when pressed powder is the only way to rid that extra shine!

Shedding winter layers

It seems like every Spring around this time I decide it’s time to shed a few winter dead ends and get a new ‘do. Today, Nancy, of the uptown Bumble and Bumble location did a wonderful job! Bumble and Bumble has prided themsleves on designing looks that fit their clients and today did not dissapoint! She took a few minutes at the beginning to ask me what my needs and wants were and then showed me a few pictures of what she had in mind. She also took time to feel my hair and evaluate it before I went off for my shampoo. We discussed different Bumble and Bumble products before she settled on her recommendation for today’s wash. Today I was treated to a shampoo and condition using their new Quenching line. This new line delivers amazing hydration for hair that has been damaged and dried due to daily styling and abuse. For someone with overall healthy hair, it makes a perfect weekly treatment versus an everyady shampoo choice. Nancy recommended that I use their Gentle shampoo daily and the Super Rich conditioner since I wash my hair every morning after my workout. The Gentle shampoo will ensure that my hair doesn’t get too dry. If you’re interested in these or other Bumble and Bumble products there are some great deals at these sites:

This is the first time in a while that i’ve built a relationship with a stylist and wanted to known as a regular. This was my third visit with Nancy and she didn’t disappoint! I feel lighter and like I have a bit of added spring in my step thanks to the dead layers she removed! If you’re located in NYC let me know as I highly recommend you stop in and visit Nancy at the uptown Bumble and Bumble location at 56th and Lexington.
