I'm in love with Necoco ネココ


I'M IN LOVE WITH NECOCO. Picked it up when I was in Japan this last April. It's my most-beloved product for my over-processed, heat-styled hair. Disclaimer, I don't have the most luxurious hair by any means, but this part of my beauty regimen keeps my hair soft, silky (but not oily), smooth and nourished. The cute packaging is a bonus- super kawaii! 

If you can read Japanese, learn more on their website. 


Necoco is an organic hair oil that is made in Japan. Besides the benefits to the health of my hair-- this hair oil smells AMAZING. Like perfume. It's floral and refreshing with a hint of amber musk. It makes me feel like a walking flower garden, and gives hair a shiny glow without weighing it down. I use it in damp or dry hair, and very little product goes a long way. One pump of product, rub it in your hands, and work it through starting at the ends of your hair. You will want to smell your hair all day long. :) 

The oil contains essential oils obtained from the petals of damask rose, an evergreen shrub called Argania spinosa (Sapotaceae), olive oil, baobab seed oil, laurel leaves, and sea buckthorn, an ingredient used in Chinese folk medicine. You can snag a bottle of your own Necoco on Amazon now for around $27+....but I've found it hard to source at times. If you're headed to Japan, please pick up an extra bottle for me!

No Drought About It

I pride myself in being a beauty product junkie. You should see my bathroom sink- barely enough space for the new pink lipstick I bought yesterday. 
Good thing I don't have a boyfriend, I don't have bathroom sink space for one. 
Anywho....that being said, I decided that I should share some of my go-to-must-haves, the products that I use and can't live without. Thus, my first fave: LUSH DRY SHAMPOO. Seriously, it changed my life. 
Let's be clear, people, you are not supposed to wash your hair every single day. See, the internet says so. It's bad for your hair! I have totally over-processed hair because I get blonde highlights every couple of months and I also use heat styling tools every day. I jump in the ocean on weekends then lay in the sun with salty hair. When I have fashion shows, my hair gets tortured. The last hair show I modeled in-- hair was fried. Nightmare. I stopped washing my hair every day a couple years back to preserve my hair and maintain it's health and length. I would use baby powder as a dry shampoo. Yes, it's a thing. When I found the Lush Dry Shampoo, the baby powder got kicked to the curb. I use less powder with the Lush product, plus it has a really fresh, citrus smell. I bought the largest-sized bottle I could get, 4.6 ounces for $13.95. Much more pricey than the baby powder, but worth it. I bought my bottle like 6 months ago and still have a ton left. I use it a few times a week, in between washes, and it gives my hair a great texture and volume, while getting rid of oils. It leaves you feeling so fresh, so clean. Ladies, I highly recommend picking up a bottle of this miracle powder.
