7/22 - Clueless at Refinery29! 20 Years of Being Clueless!

Refinery29 Shopping 225 Broadway, 23rd Floor,  New York, New York 10007 Wednesday, July 22, 2015 at 7PM FACEBOOK EVENT! I don't want to be a traitor to my generation... 3-Minute Stories Dedicated to the Greatest Teen Movie of all. Amy Heckerling’s Clueless had all the trappings of a '90s summer hit: Alicia Silverstone, Stacey Dash, and Brittany Murphy working mini-skirts and prescient girl-power (secretly fueled by Jane Austen), Paul Rudd planting trees and listening to complaint rock, a computer that helped pick out each day’s outfits, a soundtrack spanning from Coolio to Counting Crows, and some of the most quotable lines of all time. It’s a movie totally of it’s time—and yet, here we are today, still completely obsessed. On July 22, join Vol. 1 Brooklyn and Refinery29 as we pay tribute to nostalgia of the most timeless variety with the latest installment of The Greatest 3-Minute Story series. We've asked twelve of our favorite writers to tell a story in 180 seconds—about the greatest teen movie of the 1990s. And, since it doesn't say RSVP on the Statue of Liberty, you don't need to RSVP here, either. Come one, come all!

NEW PRODUCT - L'Oreal Paris - Smooth Intense Ultimate Straight Straightening Shampoo Line! Free Sample!

L'Oreal Paris's Smooth Intense Ultimate Straight Straightening Line is in stores!

Check out the collection here.

L'Oreal Paris New Advanced Haircare line of #UltimateStraight is definitely one of my new favorite shampoos - it smells great like watermelon and makes my hair super silky, smooth and shiny! Although it does take a few more steps, it is well worth it.  

While my hair is naturally straight, it made it straighter for a longer period of time and softer and silky than other shampoos I've tried before.

I'm glad I got this product free for testing because I would not have otherwise discovered it.

Something that I think they can improve on is the design of the bottle's cover.  It can easily open, making the shampoo spill out while in transit.

If you check it out at your local store, you will notice that is ridiculously affordable - I will definitely be restocking once I run out.

Get a free sample by watching the video here and clicking the link under it!

Also check out my "NEW PRODUCTS" tab here for the latest reviews and discoveries of new products!

Check out the straightness and the shininess!

These are larger in size than the sample I received and cost $6.79.

The smaller ones were $4.49.

They also come in others like Power Moisture - in the blue bottles.

As well as for Color Vibrancy.

Check out the line and let me know what you think!

Terresa =)

NOTE: I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes
