Beauty in the time of Quarantine 😷 on AM Northwest

Just a few products I fell in love with while bunkered in and on the daily walks we took. But first off here’s a little tip before you go and buy anything!

This is the time to use up all those half-empty bottles cluttering your shelves. That old moisturizer may be approaching expiration so slather the rest of it on your elbows and feet. Do something, just clear out the old. Then start a new routine and actually start to monitor results closely. Lord knows we all have extra time on our hands so slather up and review something new on your own!

Morning Walks: I’m addicted to Mustela Sunscreen. I know it’s meant for babies and kids, but it’s downright amazing for adults too. Plus the spray for kids is perfect for my squiggle worm. It’s mineral so it works right away at blocking rays and is designed for his sensitive skin.

What’s the best DIY Haircolor? This is the #1 question I’m getting online. People are looking for brands that make getting around your head easy and also are looking for lasting gray coverage. By far the easiest “mix and apply” has been the John Frieda Precision Foam Colour. Gorgeous rich shades but I’m always going to look for the brightest and shiniest blonde. I also am using the shampoos as maintenance and they work excellent at brightening but also bringing out the highlights I had done way back before the quarantine.

John Frieda Precision Foam Colour


John Frieda Precision Foam Colour is a gradual hair color foam with a non-drip foam formula that penetrates strands for deep color saturation and spreads easily into roots and hard-to-reach areas, for complete coverage without patchiness. Our thick, saturating hair foam helps lock in rich, salon-quality color with 100% grey coverage. Nourishing after-color conditioner seals in color for long-lasting, tonal richness with minimal post-coloring mess. This product will give you the intense color you always wanted while nourishing and moisturizing your hair.

SHEER BLONDE GO BLONDERh


  • This Sheer Blonde trio from John Frieda Hair Care’s Sheer Blonde Line has been keeping my hair light and bright. The shampoo and conditioner is gentle enough for daily use and all of the products can be used on natural blondes or color-treated blondes. TheSheer Blonde Go Blonder Lightening Shampoo gently lightens blonde hair with a Natural Lightening Complex 
    Used with the Sheer Blonde Go Blonder Lightening Conditioner in the shower, this hair-lightening conditioner gradually lightens blonde strands and restores moisture for healthy softness
    The Sheer Blonde Go Blonder Controlled Lightening Spray lightens up blonde hues by up to 2 shades for natural-looking color. It’s formulated with a blend of chamomile and citrus and an exclusive peroxide lightening formula that gradually lightens radiant blonde tones after 3-5 uses. After conditioning, all you have to do is spray thoroughly on towel-dried hair and style as desired. For optimal lightening, use a flat iron or curling iron after blow-drying and use only once between hair washings. Use no more than 10 times between colourings.
    Available at Walmart and Walmart.com for $11.99 each

TOUCHLAND Power Mist Hand Sanitizer

Nothing about hand sanitizer seems skin soothing and conditioning but then there’s Touchland. It has literally lifted my mood on more than one occasion during this pandemic. Loaded with the good stuff that kills 99.9% of the yucky and then also a nice dose of aloe and other skin healers. Mint is by far my favorite scent. Touchland Power Mist Mint Hand Sanitizer
