Complimentary Curly Hair Camps
with celebrity Deva stylists at
GBS The Beauty Store.

"More than 65 percent of women in the U.S. have curly hair - the type most vulnerable to damage," says Lorraine Massey, co-owner of Devachan and author of the must-have paperback Curly Girl.

Massey and her army of curl commandos, who have trained GBS salon stylists in their unique dry hair cutting technique, will offer complimentary in-store hair consultations, product demonstrations, book signings and a 20 percent discount on all DEVA products. From day one, Devachan has been at the forefront of a movement to protect, nourish and liberate hair from the drying damage of sodium laurel sulfate with its line of Deva shampoos (No-Poo and Low-Poo), conditioners and styling agents.

In addition, guests who book in advance receive 20% off a Deva Professional Hair Cut where stylists cut dry hair curl by curl to add volume and dimension. Featured in Glamour and W magazines, Deva’s innovative cutting technique is widely embraced by the curly hair community including Beyonce and Jay-Z’s bridal party.

MATADOR GLOVES ARE NOW AVAILABLE IN U.S.

The best reusable latex salon gloves are once again available in the United States. Matador salon gloves are now available exclusively at gbsbeauty.com and beautyfanatic.com or you can call 1-800-565-3233 to place an order.

Best quality, reusable, latex salon gloves still only $4.00 a pair. Available in all sizes from 6.5 to 8.5

Why wear gloves?

• They protect you against skin problems caused by handling hairdressing preparations such as bleaches, dyes, neutralizing agents etc.

• Failure to protect your hands could result in serious skin problems - such as Occupational Contact Dermatitis - which may bring an end to even the most promising hairdressing career.

• When working with stronger substances like hair dye, health and safety legislation says you must protect your hands. Salons are legally obliged to provide protective gloves.

10 reasons why you should choose Matador Gloves

1. They are super-strong. Matador gloves are made from 0.5mm thick latex and are much stronger than disposable gloves.
2. Despite their strength, they do not inhibit sensitivity or handling of hairdressing tools so you have full protection without losing control.
3. They have a rolled edge making them resistant to tearing and also help the glove fit firmly to your forearm or sleeve keeping any liquid out.
4. They have a long cuff providing added protection to the wrist and forearm.
5. They are smooth on the inside making them easy to put on and textured on the outside so that tools wont slip from your grasp.
6. They have been extensively tested against the six main chemicals found in hairdressing preparations. Matador gloves meet all the standards required for personal protective equipment (PPE).
7. They offer complete protection from solutions used in perming, coloring and chemical treatments which can cause dermatitis.
8. They are re-usable up to 10 times if you look after them: after using, wash them thoroughly in warm, soapy water and then rinse and leave to dry away from direct heat and sunlight.
9. They come in 5 sizes - from 6.5 to 8.5 - so you can choose a size that fits you comfortably and allows you to work quickly and freely.
10. They are high quality professional products perfectly designed to withstand the rigors of the salon and are available from all leading wholesalers.

Matador salon gloves are now available exclusively at gbsbeauty.com and beautyfanatic.com or you can call 1-800-565-3233 to place an order.

Curved Triangle {Shapes}

We went to a fish fry earlier today. It started to rain so we came home. We did eat and get a chance to walk around a bit. We saw the horses for the horse/tractor pull. That is the only thing we missed. On our walk I came across a church and saw this lovely curved triangle window.

Dozer Tracks {Shapes}

You are all probably thinking what shape is this? These are tracks on a dozer that is sitting in our driveway. It is a shape of sorts but what shape I am not sure. I guess you could say lines as lines is a shape. If anyone knows let me know.

Names {Shapes}

One of my favorite snacks is Cheez Its. I saw these in the store and just had to get them for the girls. I'm using them to get them to find letters, spell words and etc. So, today I thought I'd spell their names in a photo. I know I know we are not supposed to play with our food. Just couldn't resist.

Circles & Hearts {Shapes}

As you can see the first photo is a bunch of canning jars which are circular. I know not very exciting but didn't plan too much for today's photo. It was taken in the store while out running a couple errands. Second photo is an aerial that I took yesterday. It looks to me to be the top portion of a heart. This one was taken 1 mile up off the ground above the clouds. Finally the third photo is of the Booe Family Sawmill which is 2.5 miles down the road from us.

Swirl Crop Art {Shapes}

This week's theme is shapes. I do believe this photo fits the theme nicely. This farm field is not far from the house. Hope to get some more crop art photos soon. I could not decide if I liked it better in color or in b&w. What are your thoughts which do you like better color or b&w?

Aerial Photos

It's been awhile since I've been able to post some photos. I started a new venture with my photography. Flying with Matt in his Citabria airplane and taking Aerial photos. I used my 100mm macro 2.8 lens on this first 2 and on the 3rd I used my 85mm 1.8 lens. Tomorrow I'll be getting back into posting daily. Hope you come back to see some new photos.

What makes Illuminaré Liquid Mineral Makeup Unique?

Illuminaré liquid mineral makeup contains no plant extracts, perfumes, artificial dyes, animal derivatives, mica, bismuth ox chloride, talc or any ingredients that are not absolutely needed in order to make a superior performing makeup and sunscreen in one.

Illuminaré Cosmetics is the original and world’s first Liquid Mineral Makeup line and is the only mineral makeup in the world to use patented sunscreen boosters called “Hollow Sphere Technology” that make the minerals even more effective at protecting you from the sun. These formulas are so intricate yet so delicate that they require special packaging which keeps them fresh indefinitely.

The coverage of the foundation can be from light to full depending on which of their unique formulas you choose and how much you use. All of the products are highly water resistant and need no re-application. The foundations mesh with the skin and adhere all day long.

All of Illuminaré’s cosmetics are multi-use products. The three foundations are your sunscreen, makeup and concealer in one! With the Ultimate formula you don’t need to use a powder for an ultra matte look and it soaks up excess oils and perspiration as well. With the Fantastic Finish formula, most women don’t need a moisturizer underneath and with the Extra Coverage formula you get full concealing power and it can serve as an eye color base for either powder eye colors or even Their own cream but crease proof eye color formulas. The All Day Eye Colors serve not only as an SPF 15 eye shadow, but they can be used to line the eyes and fill in or color eyebrows.

Lighten Up Your Skincare Routine with TANDA

Lighten up your skincare routine (no pun intended!) with TANDA.
TANDA is a professional light therapy device that has been clinically PROVEN to work on your skin using LED technology.

The TANDA uses LED lights that penetrate deep into the layers of the skin to work with your skin cells from the inside out.

Easy to use and cleared by the FDA, the TANDA is effective in correcting and preventing acne breakouts, treating sagging, wrinkled or prematurely aging skin conditions.

With continuous use an average of 90% of users found that their acne breakouts cleared up faster and felt that outbreaks were fewer. 92% of users found that their skin looked and felt rejuvenated. 83% of users found that their skin appeared younger and healthier. (Ref: TANDA pro.)

The TANDA is as easy to use as 1-2-3…

On a CLEAN and DRY face:
Press the orange button and place corresponding light head in contact with the skin.
Move the TANDA around the face (TANDA will beep when it’s time to move on to a new spot, pause up to 3 minutes on areas of special concern.)
Use up to 12 minutes, and that’s it!

Allow 24 hours between treatment times. Once desired results are achieved, use TANDA 2-3 times per week to maintain.

The TANDA may be used to maintain results from a dermatologist, or can easily be used to start your own LED therapy sessions in the privacy of your own home!

Japanese Beetle {Faces in Strange Places}

This week's them is Faces in Strange Places. It's that time of year and this creepy things are all over. In fact I had one in my hair last week. Freaked out as I was combing my fingers through my hair and touched it. And of course I screamed as I had no idea what was in my hair. Let me introduce you to a Japanese Beetle.

Mr. & Mrs. King {Patriotic}

Today I had the pleasure of shooting my first wedding. Although it was small it was a bit stressful during the ceremony. At least for me. I'm not sure I'll do weddings in the future but it was good practice. I wish we had more time for detail shots and reception photos. I had Eliana's Vacation Bible School program this evening therefore could not photograph the reception. This young couple was lovely and great to work with. Thank you for letting me share your special day with you. Congratulations Tiffany and Dominic!!! So, I proudly bring you Mr. & Mrs. King...

Home {Patriotic}

Eliana's sitter Sarah decorates for every holiday. And as usual there is one hanging on the front door. Sarah made this as well. She's pretty crafty and Eliana likes to do them when she is there too. Sarah definitely decorates for the Fourth of July as her husband served in the military. Can't remember right now if it was the Air Force or the Marines.

ISO 640 - And YES I actually used something other then ISO 100. Can you believe it?

Lechner, Flag, Pinata {Patriotic}

This week's theme is Patriotic. These are photos from Monday, Tuesday and today. It's been 11 days since I've posted photos here on the blog. Things have been busy and now Eliana is back home from visiting Oma and Opa {my mom and dad}.

James R L. Lechner served in the military and was young when he died. Being in the military is the most Patriotic thing someone can do at least in my book. Although I grew up as an army brat and this is how I feel.

Fishing Pole {All Boy}

This goes along with the worm from a couple days ago. I have some photos of Eliana fishing with my dad 2 years ago. They are in storage at the moment. But I can still picture the moment and look on her face when she caught her first fish. She loves to go fishing. And it reminds me of when I used to go with my dad at her age. Eliana got a Barbie fishing pole for Christmas and she'll get to use it 4th of July weekend. I will be sure to capture more photos of her fishing. Like I said before Eliana is my tomboy in a dress.

Shoes {All Boy}

I myself would not wear these shoes even if I was a tomboy. This seems to be the trend right now. And being a pair of boys shoes you can see they have dirt on them. I'm honestly surprised they are not dirty as I know the 11 year old boy who they belong too.

Now if they were my shoes that would be spotless. LOL I just hate dirty shoes. Although I have gotten a manicure and pedicure then gone outside that same day and planted a garden. But shoes just can't get dirty. Shoes unlike clothes which can be washed.

Boys big and small they all like trucks especially big ones. Went into town this evening and the car lot on the south side sells big trucks. This one here is the new style. It kind of reminds me of the trucks in the movie Transformers.

Little Fire Boy {All Boy}

It seems most little boys dream of becoming a fireman when they grow up. In the mean time they can dream and pretend. And for those who go on to be real firemen all I can say is thank you. A fireman goes above and beyond duty.

Remote Control Ford Truck {All Boy}

This week's them is "All Boy". This ought to be an interesting week since I only have a girl. So, I borrowed this for a few moments this evening. I'll have to come up with something creative for the rest of the week. I used Pioneer Woman's Seventies action and reduced the opacity to 34% for each step.

Lillies {Backlighting/Sunflare/Sunflare}

Earlier I googled backlighting to see if I was actually getting it. They had a variety of backlighting photos so I'm on the right track. I will definitely be practicing some more once the sun stays out for more then 30 seconds at a time.

Yucca...it doesn't sound like a pretty flower or plant. But alas it is actually a pretty flowering plant. Although it is starting to wilt here in this photo it is still nice. And I think I got some backlighting. I'm not sure so let me know if I did or not.
