Hair Conditioning Treatment Wishlist | Indecisive Multitasker

I love having platinum blonde hair, it's just fun.  Khaleesi and Elsa are my inspiration, and when I rock beachy waves I feel like I should be vacationing on the coast with a fruity drink in my hand, and sun soaking my skin.  But right now, I am in a basement with yoga pants on, rain pelting the windows, and getting completely off topic.  See, while I love my hair, a lot of the time, it doesn't do what I want it to.  It is damaged from the bleach, and I am not ready to go for a darker, more natural color just yet.  So, I am doing my research, and compiling a list of deep conditioners that should help heal my hair, and get it back to it's "pre-platinum" silky softness.



This product had mixed reviews, on both the scent and the results.  So many people were raving about it's ability to tame the frizziest of hair, as well as brighten and condition it, while others stated that the scent was too strong, and flattened out their hair.  From what I can tell, this is a product that works across the board on many different hair types, as long as you use it in moderation.



I have a soft spot for all things Pureology.  I have sworn by their conditioners, and their Perfect 4 Platinum line has kept my blonde locks from fading like other shampoos.  It seems that I am not the only blonde who loves this line, and many others swear by it, stating that it left their hair as soft and strong as it was before coloring it. 


I mentioned this product in my last blog post, which actually drove me to writing this one as well!!  Lush products have a short shelf life, but they attract both the penny pinchers and the haulers due to the quality of their products.  If you're looking for a fresh product that will give your dull, dry hair a wake-up call, the reviews are in, and "H'suan Wen Hua" could be your next best friend!




Well, I hope you guys enjoy this wishlist I've compiled, and if YOU have any suggestions for deep conditioners that are staples in your collection, especially ones for platinum blonde hair, please leave it in the comment section below!!

Tropical Spa-Day Wishlist | Indecisive Multitasker

Life gets busy.  Half the time, you don't even realize it's hit you until you're gasping for air and can't seem to find the time to stop and catch your breath.  When this happens, you don't have time to plan for a spa day, so it's always best to have the essentials stored away for when you finally get a chance to slow down long enough to enjoy yourself and the moment you're living in.





Candles set the mood, and right now, I am in a Beach Day mood.  Whether you've got the count down clock for your vacation playing out in your mind, or you're just dreaming of the day where you can get to take a few days out of your busy schedule to just relax, this candle will take you one step closer to feeling the sand between your toes, and the salty sea air brushing against your cheeks.




 Remember, we are trying to slow things down, and nothing will calm a racing heart and mind like a soak in a slow melting luxury bath melt from Lush.  This one is called Floating Island, and the hints of lemon and sandalwood will leave you to soak in your own tropical oasis.




I have found that the busier I get, the more irritated my skin becomes.  It want's a break just as much as I do, so whether or not I've got time to enjoy a full spa day, or just enough time to slather on a face mask in the shower, this face mask forces me to enjoy the little things in life, like seaweed bits on my face.



Lets stop for a second and pretend that I know how to pronounce "H'suan Wen Hua"...
Apart from reminding me that it's been too long since I last watched "Lilo and Stitch", it's also meant to re-hydrate my platinum blonde locks that have been parched for far too long.


I will add that I haven't tried most of these products, but from the reviews I have read, they are the best at their jobs, and I would spend my money to try them all out.  I hope many of you reading will benefit from this, and even come up with your own list of go-to spa day products and leave them in the comment section below!
