hello friends!

welll, i wanted to tell you all a little story about how my life just changed.

it all started with this...

THIS... is a sample of shampoo and conditioner that my mom brought home from her short trip to florida last week. it's bath and body works orange ginger energy shampoo.


IT ALL STARTED... when she came home and handed 2 of these small bottles to me and told me that i HAVE to try them. well, i need to tell you all a little secret. i have REALLY BAD dandruff && sooo since about .. 8th grade i have been using head and shoulders... (which i love and i am not hating on in any way) but if i dont use head and shoulders for more than a day or two i get scabs on my head and start flaking...so i never really get out and try other shampoos.


welllll, i decided to try it. and in the shower i started feeling my sinus opening up and i started feeling in a really good mood! THIS STUFF SMELLS AMAZING.. no joke. it's like aromatherapy or something like that?! idk..but whatever..it WORKS.



so today my mommy took me out to bath and body and we bought the shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and sugar scrub.... i just got out of the shower.. && i STILL feel in a good mood! and the sugar scrub...i dont even know what i can say. just go buy it (OH! && they are all 2/$20 right now!)


mmmmmmmmmmmm...........

oh, and don't worry. i will be alternating b/w this && head and shoulders.. so no flaking for me :)
