Influenster Dessange Paris Hair Products

I would like to immediately disclose that I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes, but that all opinions are completely my own! :)

I received these products about a month ago, and have been using the products since then. 
As described by the Influenster website:

"DESSANGE Paris introduces the California Blonde collection, a nourishing hair care system designed to moisturize and protect color treated blonde hair. Blonde is a fragile shade that can lose its luster, fade, and weaken with time, so it is important to protect your shade as soon as you color. The special formula, enriched with passion flower extract, delivers infallible shine and luminosity for a radiant blonde color."

Though I usually have blonde highlights, they have faded quite a bit, and I have red at the moment. I went ahead and used it to review, but I am having the highlights put in again next week and can't wait to try it again and update you all again within the next few weeks!

So anyway I received the California Blonde Illuminating Shampoo and Conditioner, and the California Blonde Brass Color Correcting Creme. 


The Shampoo and Conditioner worked very well, and I was happy with the shine and feel they added to my hair... but I did have one complaint. The Smell. The longer I used it, the more I got used to it, but it says it has "passion fruit extracts", and let me tell you... they are strong. Even out of the shower, I could still smell it!! If you like the smell, it will be great, if not...

I am astounded by what the California Blonde Brass Color Correcting Creme can do! It is described as:

"A weekly in-shower treatment formulated with Linseed oil and blue pigments to neutralize brassiness and nourish the hair."

Whenever I use this in my hair it creates many different tones, lightening the blonde streaks it hits to give it a very unique and truly gorgeous look.  I was shocked that a product like this could make such a difference!  But be warned, the purple color of the product stains fingers, clothing, and white counter tops!

My Petal Club

A new box!  And a PERIOD subscription box at that!  I love finding new boxes to try out, especially when they are this affordable!  This box is normally $6.99 per month, but if you use the discount code "SUMMER" on mypetalclub.com , this box will be only $3.50!  And let's be honest, one box of pads/tampons is usually more expensive than that, so why not give it a try?? So this box primarily consists of just the period products with very few extras.  This isn't one of the present, feel-good kind of boxes, it just provides you with the necessary products to get through the month, at an affordable price. Step One The first thing you do on their website is choose the combination of products you will need.  Be warned, you aren't given as much of a selection if you order through Cratejoy like I did.  It worked totally fine and I still got the products I needed, but I like choice!  So I suggest going straight through their website....

Girls Night In!

Time to unwind with a girls night!  If you are like me and my adorable roomie, you just completed a week of mind numbing midterms and you need to unwind.   Priority number one is getting into the comfiest possible clothes that you own, bonus points if you have super cute matching pjs unlike me... My top pick is my boyfriends flannel (which is huge on me! <3) and leggings with fuzzy socks.   If you want to go the comfy but cute route, Adore Me has sleepwear ranging from sexy slips and camis if you are having a night in with your significant other, cute sweats for a girls night like we are having, and robes if you just need something to cuddle up in and be extra cozy! I highl y reccomend them!  And, just like with their bra and panty sets, your first set is only $25! Step two is to slap on a face mask! In the picture above I am wearing the Glam Glow SuperMud, which is not pictured because I only have a small Sephora sample, but it work...
