Batiste Dry Shampoo

February 7, 2015 By denise 1 Comment

I recently was invited to attend an event for Batiste Day Shampoo and got to learn more about their products and how it changing the way we think about dry shampoo. Batiste Dry Shampoo is the #1 dry shampoo in the UK and now it comes to us. Batiste has a line of Dry Shampoos and a line of Dry Shampoos with hint of color.

I have always had fine hair and hairstyles and updos notoriously do not stand the test of time. Batiste Dry Shampoo is one of the best voluminous products that I have tried, resulting in making me an expert in creating bouncy hair in seconds. Batiste Dry Shampoo boosts volume, assists backcombing, subtly holds styles without feeling like you have hair caked in products, separates curls, absorbs oil and refreshes your look.

Batiste Dry Shampoo should be used in between washes in order to remove excess grease and leave your hair feeling clean and fresh with added body and texture.

Batiste products are great to use on the go – I always have a can in the bag or car, to me it seems just as essential as carrying deodorant or lip balm. I usually use the products after the gym or a long commute; it’s like perfume for your hair!

Batiste Dry Shampoo’s unique formula contains rice starch for a truly dry application. Rice starch absorbs oil and is light on your hair so it won’t weigh down or leave a heavy residue. Simply spray your roots, massage in, brush, and style.

It comes in a scent for everyone:
Original-Clean and Classic
Blush-Floral and Flirty
Cherry-Fruity and Cheeky
Tropical-Coconut and Exotic
Fresh-Cool and Crisp
Wild-Sassy and Daring

@The Moms Mamarazzi Event with Molly Sims & Lyve App

February 4, 2015 By denise 2 Comments

I recently attended an event that The Moms hosted at Artisanal Fromagerie Bistro, to talk to model Molly Sims about her beauty tips and tricks to being a model. We also got to learn more about the movie forty weeks. In addition, we learned about a new app that is going to change the way you think about taking pictures.

While attending I got to talk to some representatives for Lyve. What is Lyve you ask? It is one of the best storage applications. How many times have you said I don’t have enough space on my phone for pictures or have a friend tell you they don’t have enough storage for pics. Just when you want to take that one shot you get the message that it is full, it will drive you crazy. I can sometimes ask someone to take the picture but then you have to wait for them to send it. I have alot of pictures that I take and I just don’t want to delete them because they represent a time for me, that I have captured a moment, and I have conquered my fear of taking pictures. I don’t want to transfer pictures because who knows what will happen then.

Well I found out what I can do. I talked to the Lyve reps who told me about the Lyve Home Box. It is a device that automatically syncs your pictures from your phone to the device. It holds 2 terabytes of storage, can you imagine all the pictures you can take with that. Here is how it works you download the Lyve app it works with Android, Kindle Fire, Macs and Windows PC. Once you install the app on your devices Lyve will pull together all your photos and videos into one single library so you can find, share and view your photos wherever you go.

I wanted to try it so I installed the app to my phone, desktop and Ipad and like magic all my photos and videos were there together.

The Lyve Home has a LCD touchscreen, 2 terabytes of storage and connects via Wi-Fi or Ethernet. It sets up in seconds and will continue to backup new photos and videos as you capture them. Get this you can also have up to three additional users share storage on Lyve Home, with private access to their accounts.

This is truly an app that we all can appreciate and love for the value and the time it will save us. We all fear that moment when we might lose those priceless pictures, now we don’t have to worry about it anymore.

The Lyve Home can be purchased for $299 at a retail store or from the Lyve store. The app is free to download on the Apple Store. Check out the website at

Now I have some really exciting news the great people at Lyve want to give you a chance to win your very own Lyve Home.

Can Do Duck: The Musical!!-#CDDTM

February 4, 2015 By denise Leave a Comment

How many times have you had your child come home frustrated because they could not get the right answer on a question, or could not achieve a goal. We sit and talk to them providing them with encouraging words. We even tell them the story of the Little Engine that could. Yet sometimes it still might not get through to them. This new musical might just help you.

Can Do Duck: The Musical is a positive motivational musical for children and families about believing in yourself and saying “I can”. The musical follows the story of two families, a human one and a duck family, as they learn to try new things and work a a team to learn to love and accept each other. The musical is based on the successful book series The Can Do Duck that has positively influenced and helped people all over the world.

What I found so interesting was that the director, Arielle Sosland, created the musical for her father, a child psychiatrist and author of the “Can Do Duck” book years ago. She remembers fondly how her dad asked her and her five year old sister to draw pictures for the book.

I wondered how well the musical would be able to follow these parallel lines between human relationships and animal one. Yet, I could not help finding myself drawn into the situation with Sarah and the Dad and the Mama Duck and her little ones. The director had a amazing way of making us feel connected to the story.

The director did a great job in using the simple visuals to teach a child that you can do something. When the young duck, Can Do got frustrated; I felt for him, when he got lost, was lonely and afraid; I felt those same emotions. I was pulling for him all the way. The best part was how connected the children where to the characters. I watched their faces as they go sad when Can Do was lost, and how happy they were when the ducks learned to fly. The director managed to capture our hearts and teach us a lesson at the same time, which was quite an accomplishment.

The show opens on February 8, 2015 at the Lynn Redgrave Theater at Culture Project (45 Bleecker Street, New York, NY)
