Product Review

I've secretly always wanted to be a food blogger. Or one of those 'here's all my favorite beauty products' people. But, alas, I am neither of these things. HOWEVER - I feel that it is my civic duty to share my most favorite product of all time with you all.
Have you ever stood in the line at the grocery store and marveled at Blake Lively's hair? Or how about Jennifer Anniston's locks? How do they do it? Well, here's the answer: stylists. They have stylists. So, quit thinking you can be like them - unless you have a stylist, of course.
There's good news, though. You can get something semi-similar to those gorgeous, beachy waves and it will cost you a lot less. About a year and a half ago, I stumbled upon Oribe Apres Beach Wave and Shine Spray (that's fancy French talk for Oribe After Beach Wave and Shine Spray).

Anyway, here's the thing. I'd buy this stuff even if it didn't work because of the way it smells. It has the most delightful scent I've ever come across. It's what I want heaven to smell like. Often, I'm tempted to just use it as a room deodorizer but that would be wasteful and sticky. But also - the stuff actually works. I rarely do anything with my hair. Seriously, there's just too much of it and not enough hours in the day. I don't have much of a 'routine' as it pertains to hair and makeup. I'm lucky if a brush gets through my hair every day. I will admit - I have good hair. Often, people comment on my hair and say really nice things about how pretty it looks. The best part about that is that those are usually the days that I haven't washed it in 3 days or brushed it in 4.


No lie, here's a conversation I had the other day:

person: Liz your hair looks amazing! What did you do to it?

me: um, I washed it 2 nights ago, didn't brush it, wadded it up on top of my head and then let it down this morning. 

Anyway, so back to the Oribe Apres Beach...it's amazing. And it works. If you've got any body at all, it tames all that frizzy junk and gives you perfect, delicious smelling waves. Also, you sorta do feel like Blake Lively all day. And I mean...come on...she's married to Ryan Reynolds...who wouldn't want to feel like her for a day?

So the moral of this story is: buy yourself some Oribe Apres Beach Wave and Shine Spray. And don't come running to me all upset saying 'OMG it cost's $35 a bottle!' cuz I'm telling you now. It costs $35 a bottle. But, it's worth it. Your hair will smell like heaven. And it will look like something straight off the cover of People mag. 

So there you have it. My first and probably last beauty/style/product post. I hope you all realize that this is a once in a lifetime thing and you will all go out and buy some of this stuff. You won't be sorry.
