Review: Neutrogena Anti Residue Shampoo

I've been experiencing some build up in my hair and it's been really bothering me because my hair feels a lot oilier and I feel the need to wash it more when I really shouldn't I heard about this shampoo on some other blogs so I decided to try it. I bought this at Shopper's Drug Mart for about $10 which is a little pricey, but considering the fact that it's only for once a week use, I believed that it would be worth it and last a while.

Right now since I don't use many products in my hair (only shampoo, conditioner and serum), I opted to use it once every 2 weeks instead of one. I've used it for about 2 months now and I use about a palm full on my chest length hair. My very first thought about it was that it smells really strong. At first I was overcome by the smell and although it's not entirely bad, it was really strong and I was taken aback at first. It smells a bit like medicine and does not lather as well as other shampoos I have used.

After I rinsed out the shampoo and used conditioner, my hair felt really clean. I couldn't feel any more build up in my hair. My hair usually gets oily in a day and my hair felt clean even after 2 days. I used it a few more times in the next few weeks and it hasn't made my scalp itchy or given me dandruff like some other shampoos do.

I really do recommend this product to anyone who uses a lot of hair products and feels build up in their hair often. It does what it's suppose to do really well although to anyone I recommend it to I will warn them about the smell!

Lip Gloss Dupe?

My favourite everyday lip is a nude lipstick with a cherry red gloss on top. It makes a nice peachy colour and that looks natural and it matches with almost everything. My favourite cherry red gloss was Kat Von D's Sheer Lightning Sheer Lip Gloss in Fierce Red but I can't find it online anymore and I believe it's been discontinued. The problem I had with this was that the tube kept leaking so I couldn't bring it around with me for touch ups anymore without making a mess. I have recently found a dupe for it in the Victoria's Secret Lip Gloss Beauty Rush in Dandy Cane. It's less sheer than the Kat Von D one but it smells really nice and is slightly cheaper (I bought the Kat Von D gloss for $10 on sale at Sephora and the Beauty Rush one for $7 at Victoria's Secret).

My only complaint is that the Beauty Rush Gloss is in a tube and I find it more sanitary to use a doe foot applicator than using the tube itself on my lips.

BB Cream Swatches

I think most people by now know what BB Cream is. It's a foundation with all sorts of skincare properties that originated from Europe and is very popular in Korea. I own 3 BB Creams while my sister owns 2. The ones I own are the Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream, Skin79 Dream Girls BB Cream and the Dr.Jart Black Label. My other sister took my Dr.Jart Black Label one so I'll try to find it later to take a swatch of. My sister also owns the Skinfood one and the Skin79 Super+ Beblesh Balm Triple Functions one. If you're wondering why it's misspelled as "Beblesh," it's because in Korea the word "Blemish" is trademarked by another company.

The Swatches I have here are the Skin79 Triple Functions one, the Missha Perfect Cover (in #23) and the Skin79 Dream Girls BB Cream.

Name Change

Just a heads up, I'm going to be changing the name of this blog and doing a revamp of the layout. I just never put any effort into it and I just didn't like it. My exams are over and it's summer time so I will be posting up a lot of a posts, I'm in the process up editing and tagging pictures right now for quite a few reviews and stuff so look out for that.

I've changed it to Glasses Girl because I do wear glasses, they're kind of my trademark because I am a twin and people tell my sister and I apart by the fact that I wear glasses and she doesn't. I do like to collect glasses things for fun so I thought it would be suitable for this blog.

Thanks for reading!

Things I'm Lusting

Sorry for the disappearance! Had something I really needed to attend to first. Boohoo.

But I've been really into summer and spring fashion lately so I've compiled some things that I've been really lusting after!

1. Floral Romper - when rompers first came out I didn't like them all that much, all I thought was about how you kind of half to take off the whole thing when you go bathroom LOL But now I see them as something cute and practical in the summer. In the spring you can just throw a cardigan over it and voila! Instant cute outfit.

2. Black Tube Skirt - this isn't really a summer/spring thing, but I really want one haha, it would be very versatile and cute and I think I can match it with a lot of tops.

3. Denim Shirt - These have been all the rage lately, I think they're a great thing to throw on on cooler days and you can match it with a lot of accessories. Also great for casual days.

4. Sheet Blouse - I've been really lusting after one of these too. They seem great for a nice breezy day out and they're not too warm and look really nice. Of course I'd have to wear a tank top underneath!

5. I've been really wanting a new pair of flats, I have a pair of black ones but it's got these gigantic gems on them and I find them too gaudy for everyday wear. I kind of want a nude one and a black one, they're both super cute!

6. Armor Ring - I've been seeing these around tumblr a lot and I think they're really cute. They make your fingers look longer and can be a great addition to any outfit. I need one asap!!!

7. Sailor Shorts - I saw these and fell in love! I love the stripes and the double buttons, super cute and they look great for summer. I would totally wear these on a day at the beach.

8. Cameo Ring - I've been seeing a lot of these to on blogs and youtube and I think they're really chic and vintage looking. I'm rather find of finding a bigger one that will stand out more bvecause I love the cameo design on the front!

9. Red High Waisted Shorts - I've been getting into colour lately, my wardrobe mostly consists of very black and white things but I've really been attracted to bright reds. I found this picture on google and I fell in love! I love how they stand out and again, the double buttons, I have a fondness for that haha

10. Lace Leggings - I've been meaning to get myself a pair for a while now, I think they look very stylish with shorts and the designs look really pretty and elegant. Not really something I'd wear during the summer though, what if my legs tan like the design?!!

Anyway that's it for this post, I have an OOTD coming up but I need to upload it from my camera. My old one gave out a while ago so I've been using my family one, it's a better camera but since everyone uses it, it's kind of hard for me to get my hands on it haha.
