Review: Nume Lustrum

Hi Ladies!

Today I am going to review the Nume Lustrum Curling Wand Set. This set retails for $280.00 on the Nume Site. I purchased this set during a Nume Instadeal on Instagram and only paid $80.00 (plus $12.00 shipping) for it! I was so happy that I waited to get this set. I almost purchased it a few months ago when there was an offer code to get it for $159.00. Good thing I waited! One thing I must note...it took almost a month to receive the product but they took the money out of my account right away. Since I already have a few other curling irons, I didn't mind the wait. Because it took so long to get to me, Nume sent me a free gift to thank my for my patience. The gift was the Nume styling comb which retails for $20.00. The comb helps de-tangle your hair and assist with straightening your hair with an iron. I haven't really used it yet so I can't comment on how it works.

On to the Lustrum....

The Lustrum comes with 5 different barells; 32 mm, 25 mm, 19 mm, Reverse, and Pearl. The heads are interchangeable and lock into place. Along with the barells is a base which is the had piece of the wand. It has an on and off button but no temperature setting. I own 3 Hot Tools curling irons and the Nume gets just as hot and works just as well. It actually heats up in seconds.  It is very light weight compared to my other styling tools. The only thing I don't like is that it doesn't have a little metal clamp that you can pull down to let it rest against instead of putting it on a flat surface.

Holiday Look: Hair Tutorial

Hi Ladies,
Here is part two of my Holiday Look Tutorial.

This is my first video tutorial so bear with me! Hopefully I get better as time goes on.

 Here is the finished look! It didn't come out perfect but it worked for my pictures. I did learn that my hair doesn't curl well after straightening it the day before. I will most definitely remember this for next time....

Hair Tutorial-Boho Chic Ponytail

Hi Ladies,
This is a cute ponytail tutorial I got off  of Pinterest:

How To Do a Boho Chic Ponytail

Steps :

• 1 : Curl the top layer of hair with the rest of your hair messy/curly. Mine was kind of curling from no heat curls the night before.
• 2 : Tease your hair starting just past your bangs on top, back to where you will secure your ponytail
• 3 : Gather your hair in place where you want it, not tight at all, and secure with an elastic.
• 4 : Pull tight, then pull out strands as needed to create a “messy on purpose” type of look.
• 5 : Wrap an extra piece of hair around the elastic.
• 6 : And You’re done!
