Rise and shine from Redding! We’re packing up and getting ready to drive back to the Bay Area.
I might not even empty out my suitcase when we get home, though, because I’m taking another trip next week, that one down to Venice Beach in Southern California to visit the headquarters of Hourglass Cosmetics…also known as one of my favorite brands at Sephora.
Okay, well, I should at least unpack my dirty clothes and leave my suitcase open for a few minutes to let Tabs sit in there and chill. (It’s up to him. This is “The Tabs Show” after all, and I’m just a bit player.)
Speaking of Sephora, can I just say how thrilled I was when they started carrying Bumble & Bumble?
Back before they started carrying it, I had to hunt and gather across the great plains of Novato to find my favorite Bumble products. It’s kind of comforting knowing now that when I run out of my B&B must-haves, I just have to make it to the closest Sephora.
Win this weekend’s $50 Sephora e-gift card giveaway, and then shake your tail feathers on down to your closest Sephora to snag bottles of Bumble’s Gentle Shampoo, Super Rich Conditioner, Color Minded Styling Balm and/or Brilliantine. I literally don’t leave home without ’em. Highly recommended.
Have a great one today. I’ll catch up with you soon.

July 27th, 2013 at 6:15 amoo I’ve never tried bumble&bumble. I wanted to try their beach wave product. My friends tell me I have nice beachy hair. I think it looks messy :/ But I’m learning to accept the waves lol
Agata says
July 27th, 2013 at 6:45 amI keep wanting to try Bumble and Bumble products, I read so many good reviews! A trip to Hourglass headquarters sounds amazing, I am pretty jealous right now. Have a great weekend!
Pat says
July 27th, 2013 at 6:49 amWe have a local skincare brand that works well for sensitive skin. Brand’s name is Celeteque. They have different face washes to target specific problems (dry skin, acne, dull skin) and so far they seem to be very friendly to sensitive skin.
Jenn says
July 27th, 2013 at 6:49 amThe best face wash for sensitive skin: Olay foaming face wash for sensitive skin. I’ve used it for years!
Paula says
July 27th, 2013 at 6:49 amI like Bumble and Bumble products in particular the Straight Blow Dry. I have naturally curly wavy hair, when I use this and take my time blow drying I don’t even have to use a straightener!
Tiffanie says

Kristina says
July 27th, 2013 at 7:01 amOn the face wash/cleanser comment train today, I have UBER sensitive skin. When it comes to skincare, I have to b beyond careful about almost everything-from lip balm to acne cream, since I tend to get super dry spots as a result of my eczema. Recently, I discovered Lush’s “Ultrabland” cleanser, which not only has the most exciting name on the planet, but is super moisturizing and gentle. Angels on Bare Skin? This is even more angelic than the Lush cleanser with THAT name.
Ellen says
July 27th, 2013 at 7:06 amI’ve been to Central America, not South America – I’d like to go!
Lydia says
July 27th, 2013 at 7:07 amI think MAC Viva Glam IV would go good with a rose colored blush.

Ana Carolina Ribeiro Olson says
July 27th, 2013 at 10:18 amA good face wash for someone with sensitive skin (such as myself) is Bare Minerals’ Deep Cleansing Foam! It takes the “grosses” away, but doesn’t dry or irritate the skin! 🙂

I’ll have to make a trip to Sephora soon! I’ve heard great things about B&B, but can’t find it (texturizing product) anywhere! I refuse to buy from Target, because my hair stylist said that they aren’t supposed to even sell it at Target.
Have fun at Hourglass! I love their products, but my wallet doesn’t. 🙁

July 27th, 2013 at 11:04 amGo monochromatic! With a rose blush, I’d pair a similarly-toned lipstick. Heck, even better if it’s a multi-purpose product!
Brooke says
July 27th, 2013 at 11:07 amI have never been to South America, I want to someday though!! My favorite eyeshadow is probably Urban Decay’s Smog…I think it’s the only color of theirs that I would ever buy the single of! But that’s one good thing about them reusing colors for all their palettes, is that I’ll never have to buy my favorite colors by themselves!! =D
sharon says
July 27th, 2013 at 11:07 amBumble & Bumble PREP is awesome! And they have free shipping today. So does MAC! I have a feeling it’s going to be a shopping day! Whoohoo!
Cindy Aiton says
July 27th, 2013 at 11:11 amMy beauty must haves…
1. Curly Hair Solutions Curl Keeper – I have tried 100s of curl products and this is the only one that has ever worked for me. I love it so much that I buy it in liters.
2. Dr. Bronner’s Tea Tree Liquid Soap – Not only do I have frizzy curls, I also have body acne. FUN! Dr. Bronner’s Tea Tree Liquid Soap has worked wonders for my breakouts. I actually have “normal” skin now!
3. Bare Escentuals bareMinerals Matte Foundation – The only foundation I ever wear. Easy to apply, looks amazing, and is cruelty free. Triple threat!
Elizabeth Life and Polish says

Claudia Davis says
July 27th, 2013 at 11:28 amMy fav eyeshadows are either anything by urban decay or the Make Up Forever Aqua creams. Those aqua creams last forever on your eyes and never seem to show creases. The colors are amazing and so highly pigmented. I especially love #13 and #16. The UD shadows are creamy and amazing with UD primer. They have such a HUGE variety that you can find anything you want.

Cez says
July 27th, 2013 at 11:40 amI’ve actually always wanted to try out Bumble & Bumble products, maybe I will now! For lipsticks & blush I find that I enjoy having similar tones with any look. I feel that it gives more continuity & balance. Plus, my skin is dry so my lipstick doubles as a cream blush 🙂
Christine W. says
July 27th, 2013 at 11:45 amI would like to try the DermaDoctor KP Duty – I’d love to get rid of this chicken skin on my forearms.
Nadia A. says
July 27th, 2013 at 11:46 amA great facial cleanser to use for those who have sensitive skin is Philosophy’s Purity Cleanser. This cleanser is gentle enough for me to use twice a day and does not break me out. Even though this cleanser is a little on the more expensive side, I think it is worth every penny. I absolutely love this cleanser and have been using it for about five years with great results.
Katie says
July 27th, 2013 at 11:47 amMy favorite eyeshadow combination uses Tease and Busted from Urban Decay Naked 2 palette, the soft matte colors are gorgeous and the purple in Busted is really flattering on my brown eyes!
Kellie says
July 27th, 2013 at 11:49 amThe summer sure has started out hot which tells me it is going to be brutally hot down here in Texas come August. Gotta load up on sunscreen and moisturizer! Thanks so much for the opportunity and best of luck everyone!!
Linda E. says
July 27th, 2013 at 11:49 amMy favorite eyeshadow would be MAC Antiqued. I just love the effect it gives to my brown eyes 🙂 And I haven’t been to South America yet! Farthest I’ve been is México, which is incidentally where I hail from 😛

July 27th, 2013 at 2:10 pmA face wash for sensitive skin? Well, for fragrance-free one’s:
Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser
Cerave Hydrating Cleanser
Olay Foaming Face Wash for Sensitive Skin
Paula’s Choice Cleansers
I have never tried Bumble & Bumble. I was tempted to try but I noticed that the preservative in the shampoo was methylisothiazolinone–which has the potential to cause eczema. It is silly I think to replace parabens (where the research surrounding its danger isn’t even sound) with known skin irritants. I just looked up the styling products you use and there is none of that in there so I might give those a try.

No 🙁 My family and I were supposed to head to Florida for Disney World but my father is too busy at work to get a week off. It sucks but there is nothing he can do so my sisters and I will make the best of this summer by going to Six Flags. It will be my first time going and I cannot wait!

July 27th, 2013 at 8:56 pmI like to pair neutral pink lip colors with a rose blush. I usually like to wear Revlon’s Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in “Honey”, a definite MLBB color so that my lips don’t compete with my blush. My favorite face wash for sensitive skin is one I found at my local health food store called “Himalaya Organix Neem and Tumeric” face wash which is all natural with very gentle ingredients that don’t irritate your skin. The Neem and Tumeric are good for their acne-fighting properties. Haven’t done any traveling this summer but I have been to South America twice before!

artemis says
July 28th, 2013 at 3:06 amHmm…maybe a nude lipstick would go with a rose blush. I haven’t travelled yet but I’m going to go to the seaside next week….I wanted to go to the mountains but my parents changed that…pfff.
A face wash for sensitive skin would be NIVEA’s, the blue gel one for normal and combination skin. Now I got one gel from Herbosophy but I think it’s drying me out >.<
I have tons of eyeshadow and I love them all 😀 I love my duochrome ones the most, though 😀 I have 3 from Farmasi. One is a coral-pink-salmon that looks golden in some angles, one is light periwinkle blue that looks pinky-peachy-lavender in some angles and one's teal-green that looks more golden in some angles <3
I'm having an O.K. time, I'm very bored and it's too hot outside…
I've never been to South America but maybe I will one day.
Natalia says
July 28th, 2013 at 4:03 amI have watched many of the infomercials for WEN and I have yet to be convinced to purchase it. However, I did purchase carol’s Daughter Hair milk and it works wonders on my biracial curl/wavy hair. It detangles, hydrates each wave and curl and feels like absolute silk. It is well priced at $18 and there is no need to to use 14 to 16 pumps of it to get the full effects.

GinaTheresa says
July 28th, 2013 at 8:07 amPond’s is the best cleanser for sensitive skin.
And it really does work! It can take off waterproof mascara, and anything else you might have put on your face (intentionally or not) through the day. The film it leaves on your skin does not cause break outs, and it is a perfect base for heavier night cream (Cetaphil). Love it. It’s a classic for a reason.

July 28th, 2013 at 11:42 amI do use B&B Color-Minded shampoo but not sure if it’s HG for me. I like the results of their Surf Spray, but it sure takes a toll on my hair’s condition. But I do like the Deeep mask…that really makes a difference. And it’s nice to pick up at Sephora.com and get some samples and whatever promo/BI samples they have.
Really, I’ve fallen in love with hair oils (but not B&B) and Kérastase Resistance Ciment Thermique Prime (amazeball). I dyed my hair copper-red and been using Davines Red conditioner and it’s allowed me to keep the color so that’s a new fav, too. Now, if only Sephora sold Kerastase & Davines…
Jenny says
July 28th, 2013 at 11:43 amMakeUp Forever’s Aqua cream eyeshadows in Steel is a favorite of mine. It’s a gunmetal grey color and it works great with dark brown eyes, and it can be blended to create a nice gradient.

July 28th, 2013 at 4:03 pmA great face wash for someone with sensitive skin is the Yes To Carrots Exfoliating face wash. It nourishes and removes dead skin without harsh exfoliating beads. It is my favorite!

Laura says
July 28th, 2013 at 4:32 pmI’ve been using Mustela’s eczema cream cleanser for my face these days since my skin has been really dry and itchy. It’s like a denser version of cetaphil that really leaves skin soft and hasn’t reacted horridly with my combination, acne-prone skin.

Susan C. says
July 28th, 2013 at 5:10 pmFavorite eye shadow? Jemma Kidd shimmery neutral In Season, hands down! It’s an instant waker-upper when my baby blues are looking bleary. A quick swipe on my lid and crease, and I look like I’m ready to join the land of the living, even if I feel like the undead!

Maggie says
July 29th, 2013 at 6:03 amI think a great face wash for sensitive skin is Fresh Farmacy from Lush. I like the light scent and how smooth my skin feels when I wash it off. It also doesn’t leave my skin feeling tight or dry like a lot of face washes tend to do.
