I've got the hot pink color on from the Minnie mini set. Love it!

They are popular. My supply store sold out and does not think they'll get anymore in.

I also bought Til the Cows Come Home mini set and the Spiderman set. Love the coral pink color in the Spiderman set.

I too fight the battle of the FRIZZ in the summer months. Are you saying to skip the conditioner in the humidity? I'm not sure I'd get even a wide-toothed comb through my hair without any conditioner. But it does make sense...

I can't remember... do you have curly hair or straight? Mine USED to be very curly. Now I'm not sure what the heck it is, lol.

I cannot skip the conditioner either BUT the conditioner from AG does not leave your hair with that smooth feeling in the shower. It gives it a different feel and really I was shocked b/c I purposely did not wash my hair for 4 days(off for the summer). I wanted to see what would happen and really my hair looked fantastic but I could not stand not washing it so I gave in.
Was out in the humid wind on Sat. Walked in the sun today and sweated for an hour and half and the hair was still smooth! I have now washed it with the Liquid Keratin shampoo and it is not as smooth. If you want the AG go get it soon or call and have them save it b/c my son's gf told me that they get in only a limited amount and really the price is a steal. It is usually 50 a bottle!

BTW I used the Liquid Keratin BOLD treatment for dark hair and it has lasted for 4 weeks to help keep it smooth. Go to Liquid Keratin.com and check it out. It works! It is 49 per bottle BUT I get at least two treatments or more out of it and it is MUCH less than the salon. It has no formaldehyde either. Between the two of them my hair is resisting the frizz! I hope I am not being premature when I say it works but it has so far. I even stuck my face in the dishwasher steam to see what would happen ....NOTHING!

Does anyone else use Perricone? I got a really good deal and decided to try some of his stuff.

I got the cold plasma when Sephora had 20% off and I had a gc. I think it was like 135 per jar or more and really it was kind of worthless. What I find is better is the Mario Badescue products. They have one in a really small bottle and it is green and costs like 30.00 but it is very effective. You only use 5 drops which I have been doing for two months and the bottle is still full! I do not have it here or I could tell you the name.

Okay my son's gf let me try the AG Simply Smooth Shampoo and Conditioner. At first I thought it was not going to work . My hair felt kind of dry in the shower but really it has made my hair really smooth and it did not frizz in the heat. I think the mistake I have made has been using conditioner in the humidity b/c it adds MORE moisture to the hair rather than keep it tame. We will see that and a combination of Liquid Keratin Bold for dark hair seems to have made a difference. I do not know if any of you recall but last summer was the Saga of the frizzy hair. HOPEFULLY the products AND not letting the HD thin my hair is going to work.

I may have missed a post, but what does AG stand for? I have very thick, curly hair, yet I straighten it about 2-3 days per week. I would love to try something like this! It makes sense. The Biolage conditioning balm almost leaves my hair slimy feeling. I've always used Biolage hydrating sh/cond balm b/c of the texture of my hair. I would love to try something like this on my straight days

Honestly, I have no idea what it stands for. My son's gf introduced me to it and I tried it to see if I wanted her to get it for me this week. I can tell you that I used to use biolage and I tried it in many forms and really it did not help ....nothing helped but the Liquid Keratin Bold treatment that I do at home and the Ag shampoo and conditioner. If you look at ULTA. com you will see it.

Bad news on the OPI He's My Surfing Instructor polish. Apparently, it doesn't like lake water. LOL We went boating/swimming on Saturday and every single nail, the polish peeled completely off. I did a base coat, 2 coats of polish and a top coat, so I don't know if it was the glitter in the polish that made it "not stick" or what.

But DD11 and I are having pedi's today for our cruise and she's very excited. It's her first one.

I got some stuff as a good deal so I'll try it and return if I don't like it but the things I ordered had great reviews so I'm hopeful.

Well I would bring it back but honestly, unless the lake has some sort of chemical in it it should not do that how is it any different than taking a bath or shower? I would try to contact OPI and tell them how disappointed you are. What if you used it and paid good money for a manicure and then it did not stay on.

I just bought He's my surfing instructor today at Ulta and used on top of Essie Bikini so teeny. Took a long hot bath and they are fine, no peeling at all. I say take it back if you can.

Okay mystery solved I think it stands for Argon Oil b/c that is an ingredient and my son's gf told me that is what the rep told her ;that is how they market it.

I use an AG shampoo that doesn't have argan oil in it. I always thought it was just the brand name.

 

[disneydreamin247]

Yay! I ordered 2 bottles of the AG shampoo I use and used a $3.50 off coupon and somehow got free shipping as well even my total was only 26 and change. I don't know how it happened but I'll take it!

YOu get the free pump too and that is a 4.00 value if you buy the item normally at 50 a bottle. It cost me 22.50 with my son's gf's discount and tax. This is a steal. If you do not like it then you can return it to any Ulta so hold your slip.

Oh I LOVE the shampoo. I bought the 8 oz bottle off Amazon for $13! I got both bottles with tax for 26! What a bargain! I am leaving for the shore today so I will go to the Ulta down there as well.

Print another coupon if you already used your 3.50.

Thanks! I didn't even think of that.

I have used it twice and I laugh at the weather. I hope it is not just the calm before the Orlando Frizz Storm in August but right now I have been walking and sweaty every morning and my hair is still holding up. I use the AG shampoo and conditioner. I would tell all of you to run to ULta and get some if they are out and most likely they will be because it is a steal, get a rain check.

 

[disneydreamin247]

I'm taking a ride to Ulta today to scope out what they have available.

Get a rain check if they do not have it. They will give you one.

I didn't know I could get one! We don't have an Ulta where I live so I have to get my fix down the shore.
