Pantene Overnight Miracle Repair Serum Review
~Weekly Product Highlight~ Pantene Overnight Miracle Repair Serum Review~
I love Pantene! Pantene makes my all time favorite shampoo and conditioner! Even when I have used other higher end hair care brands, I always end up coming back to Pantene.
You may remember, I have extremely straight fine somewhat oily hair that I wear styled in a medium-short graduated bob with side swept bangs. Since my hair is somwhat oily, I have to wash and style it every day. I have never been able to get away with “second-day” hair. *sigh*
All that washing and styling can be tough on the hair.
I am a firm believer in prevention! I prefer to prevent my hair from damage before it even happens! This Pantene Overnight Miracle Repair Serum is perfect for what I need. It not only prevents damage, but it also helps erase any damage I might have while I sleep.
One of the things that I like best about this Overnight Miracle Repair Serum is
that it quickly repairs my hair and leaves it feeling soft and strong without having a heavy, sticky, or oily feeling. It is not heavy and does not weigh the hair down.
I apply this product on the ends of my hair to about mid-way up the hair shaft. If I really want an extra deep conditioning, I will apply it all over my hair even on my scalp. Since I have short fine hair, I can get away with using only one pump or two if I am going for a deeper all over the head application. Since I use only one pump at a time, this almost 5 fl oz bottle lasts me a really long time!
It is a transparent white thin cream, that has a beautiful light pleasant clean scent. One pump gives about a quarter sized amount of product.
What does the Pantene website have to say about it:
“System erases 6 months of damage in 1 use
Don’t lose sleep over damage—lose the damage while you sleep. This easy-to-use overnight treatment will give your hair a shiny, smooth, soft wake-up call that is weightless and non-sticky, and leaves no residue on your pillow.
USAGE:
WHO: Those who have damaged, stressed, and overworked hair; gentle enough for those who perm or color-treat
WHEN: Nightly, on wet or dry hair to noticeably repair damaged hair
HOW: Apply 1 to 2 pumps to hair—starting at the bottom and working your way up—stopping about mid-shaft. No need to wait or even rinse—go right to bed!”
If you feel as if your hair could use some extra moisture and conditioning as well as a bit of repair, I definitely recommend you give this Overnight Miracle Repair Serum a try. A 4.9 fl oz bottle costs only around $6.50.
What about you, have you ever used this Pantene Overnight Miracle Repair Serum? Did you feel like it made a difference in your hair? I would love to hear what you think?

💩 The 4 Fs of Bowel Health 💩
~Ditch the Diet~
Yes, you are correct, we are about to talk about 💩!
If you have ever talked to me at length about healthy eating, you already know that “bowl health” is very important to me!
While yes, it might be a really gross thing to talk about, it is so important! You can tell so much about what is going on inside your body by your bowl patterns.

First, let’s discuss what is considered to be a normal bowel routine. While everyone’s bowel patterns are different, it is considered normal to have a bowel movement at most one to three times a day, or at the least three times a week.
You should never let yourself go more than 3 days without a bowel movement. Let me repeat that. You should never let yourself go more than 3 days without a bowel movement.
So now that you know what is normal, let’s talk about how you can get a better bowel pattern?
1) Fluids
First of all, make sure you are drinking plenty of Fluids!
Science time…Fluids are absorbed in the large intestine (also know as the colon). The more fluids readily available to your colon, the less it needs to work to absorb them.
Do you see where I am going here…the harder the colon has to work to draw out the necessary fluids your body needs, the harder you’ll have to work to get the waste it produces out. (Gross, I know, but so true.)

2) Fiber
Fiber helps to keep everything moving down and out.
The majority of American women do not get enough daily fiber. Most people should aim for 25–35 grams of fiber a day.
Here comes some more science…An added bonus to fiber is that it keeps you feeling fuller longer, as well as slowing down the absorption of sugar and the release of those sugars into your bloodstream.
3) Flatulence!
Yes, I did just go there!
If you are not used to eating a fiber rich diet you need to take it slow! Don’t just start downing all the high fiber foods that you can find. Start with a little bit at a time and increase your intake by one of the things listed below every two -three days depending on how your gut is responding.
You cannot just increase your fiber without increasing your fluid intake. You will end up with a lot of gas and possibly even more stopped up!
4) Fitness
Let’s face it, exercise helps your body look better, feel better and function better. Lack of physical activity can contribute to constipation. Living a sedentary life can slow the digestive system. If you’ struggle with constipation exercising regularly can help get things going in more ways than one.
Add these for Fs into your life and you will have a healthy bowel in no time! 💩
(Seriously though, how funny is the 💩 emoji? Lol!)

Glossy Box vs Boxy Charm
If you know me in real life, you know that I love to research out everything before I make a purchase. I always want to make the best choice!
I have decided that I am going to be subscribing to either a Glossy Box or Boxy Charm subscription. I haven’t quite decided for sure which one I am going to get…
Both boxes are $21 per month. Both boxes seem to have deluxe and full-size samples.
From the research I have done, it seems as if Glossy Box has more skin care and deluxe samples, whereas Boxy charm seems to have more makeup related items and full-size product.
I am leaning more towards Boxy Charm. I definitely prefer makeup and full-size products, but on the other hand, it is nice to be able to try out new skincare products that I might not ever try otherwise.
Glossy Box usually has around 7-10 items with some being full sized and others being deluxe samples. From what I can tell, Boxy Charm always has 4-5 full sized items. Both claim that each box has a value of $100 or more.
Glossy Box vs Boxy Charm…whichever I do choose, you know that I will be writing a review about it and all the great things that I get in the box.
What about you? Do you get either Glossy Box or Boxy Charm or both? Do you love it and recommend it?

Perfection and Consistency
~Ditch the Diet~
A healthy lifestyle is not is not about perfection it is about consistency.
When something is done with consistency is when the results are seen. Consistently eating healthy, exercising, getting enough sleep, decreasing the stress in your life, these things bring positive results.
You are the only one who can choose what you will be doing consistently.
Keep in mind that consistency always brings results… we get to choose what we will be doing and whether those results will be negative or positive.
