Sweat Week: Frizz fix

The Discovery Channel’s got Shark Week; well, I bring you Sweat Week — a week of posts on surviving the heat waves this summer.

My fine, straight hair up until now hasn’t been the type that frizzes up, but lately when it’s very humid, it does kinda develop a mind of its own and poofs up. And while I typically will welcome volume, this uncontrolled every which way poofiness isn’t the same thing.

So my new favourite for taming this newfound frizz is John Frieda Frizz-Ease Secret Weapon Finishing Creme. It smells amazing, is lightweight and melts into my hair without making it greasy, while taming down the poofiness. I keep it in my handbag on days with humid forecasts (ie. every day, ugh).

(And to give my skin a quick little pick-me-up on the go, I keep Vichy Eau Thermale in my handbag, too. It’s got 15 minerals that’ll soothe, refresh and benefit your skin.)

Blonde ambition

Just got paid, it’s Friday night… Party hunting, feeling right?

Well, Toronto’s legal blondes (ie. of legal drinking age) and their gal pals need to hunt no further for plans for this Friday night, June 11th.

John Frieda’s hosting an event at Devil’s Martini from 6PM til 10PM where you and your crew can enjoy complimentary hair consultations courtesy of John Frieda’s Canadian creative consultant Alain Larivee and his team of stylists, make-up applications courtesy of Rimmel London, and a preview of the latest styles from French Connection.

Plus, there’ll be a pro photographer on site to capture shots of you and your friends, which will be uploaded to Facebook.

And did we mention there’ll also be treats and signature cocktails to enjoy, plus a swag bag of beauty goodies to take home with you?

All you have to do is RSVP here and show up with your BFFs that night ready for some girly good fun.
