I was in a hurry and a little short on cash when I picked up this item from the beauty supply store.
It costs $2.99. You get what you pay for.
I stretch my relaxer and my daughters are transitioning. This was not a good fit for us.
I sprayed this product on clean blow dryed hair. I smoothed the hair with my fingers and then flat ironed.
This product seemed to make the hair revert. I did not dare to spray the hair an additional time as the directions suggested.
Not at all what I was looking for! If you have naturally curly hair or more than one texture, please don't waste your money.

While the hair seemed to be protected from the heat, the addition of water in this product really negated that benefit.

Close Dupe Alert - Ruby Kisses Velvet Red (RLS39) = MAC Violetta?

Ruby Kisses Lipstick may be found at your local beauty supply store.

Velvet Red (RLS39) is a little more red than Violetta.
It may be a closer dupe to MAC Pervette.

Left Ruby Kisses Velvet Red (RLS39)

Right MAC Violetta

The redness of the Velvet Red may be compensated for by using a blue based plum liner.

$1 vs. $14.50

Of course it is always important to remember that texture and wear time may be less when using less expensive products. I find the textures and wear time to be quite similiar.
The Ruby Kisses is smooth, creamy and very moisturizing.
Wear time = about 3 hours.  If you don't mind reapplying, go for it.

Nails Of The Day (NOTD) - Revlon Plum Night

Wow! This is one of the most sophisticated purple mani's I've seen in a long time.
I was able to score this polish for $.99
(Thanks to CVS Sale $3.99 with $3 Extra Care Bucks Reward). The everyday price is $4.99

I love the formulation. It has a smooth and creamy application.

I did my standard NK Ridge Filler Base Coat
Revlon Plum Night 2x
and
1 coat of NK Express Dry Top Coat.
