Cover Dark Roots with Ease: Back2Blonde.

Cover Dark Roots with Ease: Back2Blonde.

I've talked about my struggle and concealing my gray roots in between salon appointments. What I haven't shared is how difficult it is to disguise the dark roots that grow in too. Being a not-so-natural blonde makes this quite difficult, especially when I try to extend the time between salon appointments as much as I can. EVERPRO has created a temporary, instant fix for dark roots called Back2Blonde and this was made especially for us "blondes" that need to conceal their dark roots. It's like magic with the precise application!

Experience the Pleasure of Faking It with AGEbeautiful Haircolor.

Pull Together One Classy Look for ALL of Your Spring + Summer Events.

SPONSORED

The spring and summer seasons are such a busy time of year. For me, these next few months are busier than ever! There are so many events like Mother's Day, graduations, weddings, bridal showers, baby showers and milestone birthday parties to attend. I literally have every weekend booked through mid July! These are all big events that I need to plan for. I always seem to have a busy time of year like this and it stresses me out. I decided that I need to stop worrying about what I am wearing and put together a few key looks. This way, I can have fun, enjoy these events and make memories with my friends, family and loved ones and not stress.

This year, I am putting together little event looks by buying the right key pieces — dresses, shoes, jewelry, bags even planning the hair looks and makeup so I am prepared. I am going with a classy theme, so I can mix and match everything; I only need a few key pieces which saves me a lot of money.

We are seeing a lot of color this year, but when you are keeping it to just a few pieces, you can't go out and buy a pink dress and wear it five times without people noticing. This is why I invest in basic colored items, like a white, nude and black dress and accent it with gold jewelry and a bright bag or shoes for day; for night it is always black.

For makeup, I concentrate on beautiful skin both day and night. That means, flawless foundation, with a little bronzer and blush just on the apples of my cheeks. On my eyes, I keep it more natural during the day with a pop of color on my lips. At night, I am all about the smoky eye with a ton of mascara. I actually keep my favorite nighttime mascara, nude lipstick and gloss in a little makeup bag for my clutch at the ready because I know this will be coming with me every weekend. 

For my hair, I wear it down for daytime events and in an updo for nighttime events. Pinterest is such a great source of inspiration for updo's and I print them out and have photos by my vanity. Having my hair in it's best condition so it is smooth, frizz-free and manageable is key. I have been using Nexxus Oil Infinite system.

Nexxus Oil Infinite system is a two part system that contains a Rebalancing Shampoo and Restoring Conditioner. Specifically formulated using concentrated, 100% pure Elastin Protein and natural Babassu and Marula Oils, this Oil Infinite regimen works to renew hair texture and restore smooth, sleek, fluid beauty.

I'm thrilled that my hair is frizz-free, smooth and manageable and looks perfect for all of my events. The Rebalancing Shampoo does a great job at cleansing my hair and never makes it feel overly dry. It is silicone-free which is a plus. The blend of oils in the Restoring Conditioner really help make my hair smooth without weighing it down.

"Nexxus Oil Infinite system smells so good and makes my hair super shiny!"

The large 25oz. bottles of the Nexxus Oil Infinite system are available now at Costco for a limited time, so I don't have to worry about running out. More time for making memories!

While I'm not playing with beauty products, painting my nails or shopping for makeup with my daughter who loves trying products with me, you will probably find me sneaking off to Florida with my husband of over 25 years or cheering on one of my three sons. I like baking, re-decorating, drinking tea, fussing with my flowers and facials.
