From the Crown of your Head: Bantu Knots
As we go back to work and school we have everything lined up. From our makeup and accessories to our shoes and handbags, but we tend to forget about a very important aspect; our hair! Well, I’ve found a solutions that have helped me maintain the health of my hair.When on the rush to work and school, sometimes I don’t have the time to style my hair so the night before I’ll do a style called, bantu knots. They’re super easy and don’t require much time but do require a at least two inches of hair. Here are some of the products I use to help me accomplish this super cute and quick style!
– Satin bonnet
– Denman brush
– Satin or silk pillow case
– Castor oil or oil mixtures for spritzing
– Wide tooth combTutorials for bantu knots can be found all over Youtube but my favorite three are:
1. Naptural85
2. MyNaturalSistas
3. whoissugarThe finished results of about ten minutes of styling and dancing in the mirror!
Bantu knots aren’t the cutest style but its what you make of them!

Smooth Skin All Day with @MiracleSkin
Launched in 2010, this 5-in-1 formula will give your skin what it deserves. Miracle Skin Transformer SPF20 Face is made to hydrate, prime, enhance, mattify, and protect your face.
I recently received this product to try out from Miracle Skin Transformer and I love it! After cleansing my skin, I apply to my face and I notice each time how smooth it glides on. It includes a combination of antioxidants and vitamins – Vitamins K, A and E, Passion Fruit oil, Saw Palmetto, and M3 Complex (to name a few). You can choose from 7 shades and it will cost $48 for 1.7 fl. oz.
The only thing I would change for next time is to go a shade darker than the Medium. You will also think that it’s a bit pricey but it should last awhile! It’s worth it to me because I don’t have to wear makeup over it. It also minimizes my pores and evens out my skin tone. Try this non-greasy and non-cakey product, now!
Has anyone else tried it or other products by Sarah McNamara?
PS: I am also currently trying out Miracle Skin Transformer Treat & Conceal Eye & Face so I will be reviewing that as well.
Thank you to Amanda & Miracle Skin Transformer for the products!
