Next week will be Beauty Week here on Walking Through Honey!! I know that is what most of you wait for, and here it is! Pending, my income tax refund coming on time and me getting new camera.

Stay Tuned!

Thursday Tidbit...

Haven't done a tidbit Thursday in a while. Just something that I have discovered that makes putting this thick, kinky hair of mine in a ponytail easier than ever Ponytail Hooks. At first, I was so confused on how to use these, but after I got the hang of it, I love these thangs! You can find these ponytail hooks at your local Sally's.

Got questions? I can walk you through it...

My 'Almost' Perfect Nude for Dark Skin...

While browsing my local Wal-Mart, I came across what I think to be an almost perfect nude color for dark skin. It's Rimmel Kate Moss #14 lipstick. At first, I was really skeptical because I always see this one YouTuber, who's name I cannot remember, use Air Fairy by Rimmel and it looks really good on her, but I need something a little darker and not so ash looking. This pictures shows it as being more pink than brown, but with some brown liner and gloss...its perfect!



Now, if you are looking for a nude nail polish, look no further than OPI San Tan-Tonio! I tried this polish in store and it was so pretty on, more like a chocolate milk color. I personally think that it would look great on all skin tones. I think that I am going to try mines with my leopard Konad stamping plate in black...cute!  

If you are a dark skin girl, what are you favorite nude lipsticks and polishes?

Curls Unleashed Product Review

Today kicks off Beauty Week here on Walking Through Honey! As many of you know, and can tell by most of my posts, I really don't post much about products or reviews. This week I will be posting more beauty related posts.

Today, I will be giving an honest review on the Curls Unleashed Sulfate Free Shampoo and Moisturizing Conditioner.


Up first, The Sulfate-Free Shampoo. For the most part, I like this shampoo. I must admit that I am not really concerned with shampoos, but this one is better than other sulfate free shampoos that I have used. It smells good and cleans your hair well without stripping it. I normally shampoo my hair once, focusing mostly on the roots and then working my way down. I noticed that I really don't have to use alot of the product and I do get a good lather. Now on to the negatives...sigh...the price. I brought this from Sally's and it was $10! Its a shampoo, not a product filled with some extra ordinary ingredients. The products claims:

Lavish in the ultimate shampoo experience as your hair is gently cleansed, moisturized and detangles with lemon balm, rosemary and hops.
• Non-stripping
• Moisturizing
• Great Lather

Overall: I give it a 4 out of 5

The Moisturizing Conditioner, for me, is just average. The product states:

Curls Unleashed No Restrictions Moisturizing Conditioner is great to use for added moisture. This product is also great for transitioning, “co-washing,” detangling and conditioning.
• Moisturizes
• Detangles
• Can be used as a daily conditioner
• Prepares curls for styling



Ok, I am transitioning, almost natural. I most definitely wouldn't use this for a co-wash. But it does do a good job in detangeling, but the conditioning is just average. The one thing that I noticed was that I go through this conditioner fast! I used it three times and I am just about done with the jar. Not to mention, this stuff like the shampoo, was not cheap. If you want a conditioner, then go for this one. I wouldn't/couldn't see this being used as a deep conditioner, but maybe with heat it might be better.

Overall: I give it a 3 out of 5

Just as a disclaimer, I am not all into the whole 'all natural' products, no cons, has cons, slip, grip, stuff. So, I couldn't tell you if this is any of that. It says that it contains natural ingredients, but how much I couldn't tell you. I am just a novice starting out with the whole natural product bandwagon. The one thing that I do know is that I don't put much weight into the shampoo and conditioner that I use. To me, the deep conditioner, moisturizer, and oils are more important...but whatever works for your hair is always best.
