16 Beauty Myths -- Busted!

Beauty info gets passed through the generations but is some of it urban legend? See if you can determine what's myth and what's not.

Take the quiz



Super fun! Wait til you try this! Okay, I love a new thing, and I remember when Aveda came out with something similiar to this about ten years ago and as amazing at it was, it didn't catch on.


Until now....I sampled two different products in this line and loved both. I tried the color that matched my hair and dark/brown first and enjoyed the color matching to my hair.


Like the description on the website says "http://www.theall-nighter.com/index.html"



Directions For Use
How To Get The Most Out Of Your Hair Powder
DIRECTIONS: Gently sprinkle a light dusting of The ALL NIGHTER Styling Powder™ through hair, distributing with fingers. Start near the roots and work towards the ends. For longer hair, flip your ‘do to get some underneath. Need more? Use more! Used too much? Don’t be so heavy handed next time! Scrunch. Zhuzh. Fluff. Toss. Tease. Have fun with it! The micro-fine formulation disappears into the hair. Natural mineral pigments rinse away from hands or other surfaces - but be careful if you are wearing your fancy duds - a towel over the shoulders helps.

Here’s a few other tips to get the most out of your product:
· You can apply directly to hair (carefully) or apply to fingers and gently rake through hair. You could even sprinkle some out and use a makeup brush!
· The All Nighter works on squeaky clean hair, but really hits it’s stride on 2nd/3rd day between shampooing, or with a bit of product already in (like pomade or hairspray)
· Make sure you close the sifter cap before you throw it in your bag!


And I tried it by shaking it onto my hair, running my fingers through it, adding product with it, and on clean plus two day old hair. I like the lustre look of the product in my hair best.


I love that the ingredients are paraben free and here's a wee list of what you will and won't find in it:


All Natural Hair Powder
OUR INGREDIENTS & WHY WE USE THEM
The ALL NIGHTER Styling Powder™ prides itself on being the first all natural color-matched hair powder currently on the beauty market. This unique formula of hair powder contains a variety of safe, gentle ingredients - so why use anything else on your “mane” asset?
Pure Rice and Tapioca Starches – Ideal for cosmetic application and oil absorption. Used in the finest face powders from Europe and Asia.
Cruelty Free Silk Powder - Minimally processed, it feels great against your skin. Contains proteins similar to those found in human skin, ideal for light diffusion, luster, and manageability.
Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide – These two proven cosmetic ingredients provide natural UVA/UVB filters to protect the scalp and act as adherents for translucent and even coverage.
Beneficial Essential Oils – Essence of tangerine freshens hair and stimulates the scalp, and it’s a scent that both guys and gals enjoy.
Safe Natural Mineral Pigments - For more natural and “true” color matching. Fresh from the earth, minerals contain no dyes, preservatives or chemicals.

The ALL NIGHTER Styling Powder™ has made a conscious decision to NOT use parabens, aluminum, talc, and silica because of increased scrutiny over the potentially negative health effects of these controversial chemicals


So...visit the website and get some! Either in your matching hair color or in the neutral shade that goes on in a clear lustre instead of a matching color.
Enjoy! I sure did!
