Goodhead shampoo review by Ballsy


Hi ya gorgeous!
Yes you read that correct.



I received a sample from this brand for my son and since he is away on the quarantine and  travel ban between states, it's safe to say he won’t be back for awhile, I have used it and really like the lather and how it rinses clean in the hair.
I do not have the conditioner though I wish I did because my son's curly hair loves conditioner and he slathers it on to control the fuzzies.

Details about Good Head shampoo by Ballsy ingredients:

  • Blue-Green Algae Extract -- Helps promote thicker hair.
  • Quinoa Protein -- Strengthens and moisturizes.
  • Tea Tree -- Cleanses and soothes scalp.
  • Green Tree -- Repairs and protects from damage.
  • Activated Charcoal -- Detoxifies for a healthier scalp.
  • 16oz wash lasts ~2 months with daily use.

Dupe Alert! HD Powder - trading Dermablend for e.l.f.!

Hi ya Gorgeous!
Happy day - whatever day it is!
Actually, I made this on Wednesday and posting on Thursday because on Tuesday I forgot to! If you have been forgetting to take care of your health and maintain your fitness, this simple guide can help get you back on track https://dietlife.com/low-fat-diet/



In the effort of quarantine life and still waiting for the PPP or EIDL or CAUI or the Shopify and SamCart to kick in - I've tightened my belt and made some firm choices to not buy the normal choice in skincare and makeup, but instead, to buy the drugstore dupe.

Normally, I prefer Dermablend though chose the e.l.f.  HD powder instead.  This video takes ya through it! Luckily we have a choice in which product best fits the budget and preference.

Thank you for watching and subscribing! The goal of 5000 subscribers is closer than ever, only 520 more to go!

Wine Wednesday with Argentina and Chile reds

Hi ya Gorgeous!
It's Wednesday that feels strangely like any other day in quarantine life. So I did receive the stimulus payment. It was the basic $1200 not like the guy who received $8 million on accident!



I paid the necessary bills and got caught up and then took $20 to the Grocery Outlet to stock up on some great $5 wines. Yes, I have cut my per bottle budget in half so I can have more. Until a steady income manifests back into a steady stream, I'm making sacrifices!

Today I have 2 South American choices for you and one I absolutely loved and one was nice but I wouldn't buy twice.  Enjoy the video and remember to let me know in the comments what your favorite $10 and under wine is!

Discount Skincare Dupes for Murad Retinol Resurgence skincare

Hi ya Gorgeous!
Happy pandemic day #Icantremember ...it's been so long. So instead of focusing on the ongoing quarantine - let's take a moment and find joy in the moment. We need to direct our minds to the joy that is possible, right now, in the moment. Please don't miss this moment and wait for "something" to happen - take a deep breath, look around, find the joy - and enjoy it.


Today I have a video that shows some skin care choices from Amazon that are in a lower price range than ordering my all-time favorite skincare Murad. Quarantine life has forced some financial choices to be made and I don’t want to give up my retinol regimen but I do need to curb the cost. 



So say hello to Yeouth and Neutrogena! Thank you for watching and sharing!

Wine Wednesday with Wind Storm


Hi ya Gorgeous,
Wine Wednesday today has 2 positive recommendations as well as some positive encouragement and ways to prepare yourself for coming out of the selah, the pause, prepared and ready to seize the season!

Can I get an amen on that positive quote meme I found on the internet?  I'm telling you my friends - like the old adage that says " there are two sides to every coin and every story" - I truly believe that there are two sides to the quarantine life.  You can look at how we have all been off of work and life for over a month now and that's bad - or - you can look at this beautiful selah and pause that we have been given for the Earth and ourselves to re-do, recreate and reformulate how life will be for us going forward. Life is good! Choose life! Wham! and George Michael were right!

Now enjoy these wine selections that I fully endorse and get your notepad ready to jot down some thoughts too!



Thank you for watching! Would you please be so kind as to subscribe and share?
Then, share your $10 bottle recommendation!

Vital Proteins Collagen Water: First Impression & Press Forward Into the New chit chat

Hi ya Gorgeous!

Happy Easter Monday to you!

Today really marks a turning point in the season and time that we are in.  So this idea is a first impression of the Vital Proteins Collagen Water in peach white tea and some positive and encouraging chit chat for goal setting and purpose driven planning for this 2020 season.



 For me, the quarantine life started on Friday, March 13. My son's school was officially closed and he left early for his spring break trip. Problem is, he's never made it back after spring break! The interstate travel is banned and there really is no reason for him to leave the ranch since it's full of teenage boy good times like boat, plane, truck and off road vehicles. The city holds so little for a teenager to do outside with all of the parks closed, and being one step away from lock down curfew times. So while the cub is away  I've read a lot of books, watched a lot of documentaries, completed 2 scripts developed for a one door policy and then did a lot of snacking. Like, a lot.

Now I am gearing up for a very productive spring season and I'm retooling my skincare, haircare and supplements and that's when grocery shopping in the Ralphs I came across this Vital Proteins Collagen Water.

It's a touch tart. Tastes fresh and not chemically or like it has bones in it.  As a collagen supplement, I think you may like it too.  Enjoy the video!


Thank you for watching - would you be so kind as to subscribe and share! Almost to the 5000 subscriber goal!

Happy Resurrection Sunday - REJOICE!

Hi ya Gorgeous!
Raise a hallelujah! Rejoice! He is risen! The tomb is empty. The plan has worked.
This is the best day of the year - ever.  There are so many days in a year whether on the gregorian calendar or the Hebraic calendar - though this day, is the most significant because it's the day that all of the trust put into the plan of God, even when it didn't make sense to the human natural mind, made sense when Jesus Christ rose from the dead three days after being hung on the cross.



For where ever you are in your faith journey - today is a day to shout and dance! Celebrate and sing! If you are new in your faith, this day marks the beginning of the new covenant journey. If you are seasoned in your faith, then today is a day to receive fresh fire and belief in your walk with the Word.

Amen! Amen and amen.


Yes, enjoy peeps and chocolate bunnies - though know, that the real reason we celebrate is the blood of the lamb that was shed for us. Jesus Christ died on the cross at Calvary for you, me and all of us - and then he rose again on the 3rd day, alive, spotless and our risen Savior.  It's why the gospel is called the good news.  And it's good.

Happy Easter!
Happy Resurrection Sunday!
Happy Passover!

Good Friday!

Hi ya Gorgeous!
Happy Friday - and it's not a normal, just any ol' Friday. It's Good Friday. It's a time where entering shabbat tonight has a deeper meaning.  If in your quarantine life moment, you can pull aside a time to reflect and ponder the truth behind sacrifice and trusting the plan.  God had a plan.  We couldn't see it at the moment or understand it, though by trusting the plan laid out, the best was yet to come. 
He is risen!


 

John 3:16-17

16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.


This lil bit came from the Bible study website linked above and it's a lovely read: 
"Good Friday is the Friday preceding Easter Sunday and is the day Jesus Christ was crucified on the cross. We can celebrate on Good Friday because Christ's death was a sacrifice so that we could receive the gift of eternal life. Jesus bore our sins, shame, and burden on the cross. The results changed the course of humanity and what man meant for evil through killing Jesus, God meant for good! "
