Luxurious Volume is a great line to stock up on, especially if you worship highlights, or frequently dye your locks. Designed primarily to help our ladies with color-treated hair, this shampoo and conditioner duo gives oomph, but not weight, to any hair type (colored or not) and delivers salon-style results for a fraction of the price!

Although I’m currently rocking my natural colors, I still really like the Luxurious Volume products because they give my woefully flat and fine hair a pretty sheen and the volume that I crave.

When I use Luxurious Volume I have a hard time NOT touching my hair, because it feel so soft and looks so nice!

Dude, it’s chilly out there.

And while I don’t necessarily dislike cold weather (okay, that’s not true, but I am originally from the north), I REALLY don’t like what the cold does to my skin. Dry fingers are not the most attractive, and if it gets really bad out, my skin can crack— gross AND painful.

Luckily, I have a collection of lotions that work really well, and I just added h2o to my list. The Spa Hand and Nail Cream we featured this month is lightweight but powerful, so it absorbs into my skin right away— my hands never feel greasy or have that weird sheen that some intense creams leave.

Although I’m still an oil girl at heart, this Detoxifying Body Butter from Amala is just the thing to pamper my skin during the dry and cold months.

Made with myrtle, fig, and olive oil, this body butter is seriously the best winter-time lotion I’ve ever used. The creamy, thick, non-greasy formula softened my rough patches, made my skin smell like myrtle (a criminally underrated scent), and was a delightful way to start my morning.

I was able to do my whole body with just one packet and I immediately started worrying about when I could fit a full-size of this into my budget.

A confession: I never get my nails done.

OKAY, not never, but most of the time my nails are painted from the safety of my bed and in close proximity to Netflix. I like my lazy weekend ritual, but sometimes I do yearn for the cool nail art on Instagram, which I obviously can’t do myself.

Luckily, I was staring at my chipped, black-purple nails not so long ago when these babies arrived at the office. Did the BB5 Team have a manicure party? You bet we did. And we LOVED it.
