REVIEW: A Beautiful Life's Honey'do Shampoo & Conditioner



Are these adorable or what?

Award-winning boutique A Beautiful Life has launched a unique line of organic honey infused haircare.  Honey'do Shampoo and Honey'do Conditioner are sweet treats for the hair, imparting fantastic hydration, shine and manageability. 

The shampoo is sulfate and paraben free, so it doesn't lather immensely, which we all know by now is actually a good thing for hair!  It does, however, gently cleanse hair without stripping and its light formula smells subtly of tangerine - an ABL signature (their iconic All Nighter Hair Powder smells of tangerine loveliness as well).  The conditioner is thick in its honey bear bottle yet surprisingly light in texture.  It may be used as an instant conditioner or leave on a little longer for a deeply hydrating treatment.  I recommend turning the little honey bear conditioner upside down in the shower when storing as the conditioner will dispense easier.  I love how gentle these formulas are on my hair and how soft and shiny it leaves it.  As with most products I bring home that are worth their weight in gold, my daughter has "stolen" these gems for her own use. I've taken to have to hide them in my room (shhhhh!). Whatcha gonna do ...

Listen to some of the extracts in this 'poo/conditioner combo: ivy extract, rosemary extract, tangerine essential oil.  Both products are formulated with organic honey, which is what imparts moisture, shine, softness and manageability to even very dry hair.

These light formulas are a pleasure to use, sweetly sensory with their tangerine essence and a complete delight for hair.  Tony and Jennifer have hit it on the mark yet again.  Is there anything this power couple in beauty chicness can't do?


Honey'do Shampoo and Honey'do Conditioner retail for $16 each ($30 for the duo) and are both available exclusively through A Beautiful Life.  Check them out ... you'll be amazed at all the fun, gorgeous items this trendy boutique offers!

Introducing A Beautiful Life Nail Lacquers



Ohhhhh how I adore A Beautiful Life!  I became obsessed with ABL after learning about their trendy, off-beat, rocker-chic boutique in New Hope, PA by owner Tony Artur.  This little gem of a shop is fabulosity in concentrated amounts! LOL

Seriously, though, it is.

A Beautiful Life is one of those shops that you pass by, see something all-too-interesting in their window, must dart in, and end up staying for hours delighting in all the unique offerings.  Perfumes (some they make themselves - Smitten), makeup (some they make themselves), hair accessories (some they make themselves - Vivienne Pickle), vintage clothing, haircare products (some they make themselves, like the wildly popular The All Nighter Styling Powder). You get the drift. 

Always the enterprising duo, Tony and wife Jennifer drive this creative force, the Arturs have developed a nail line taking the beauty industry by storm with unique colors, a formula with true chip-resistant staying power and soy-based, non-toxic 3 Free (No DBP, Toluene, or Formaldehyde).



I mean, how does one pick a favorite shade here.  Of those I've tried, I love them all, my top three are probably Frosh, Rockstar and Vexed. Though I know I'm prone to change my mind or add in a few others as time goes by because really they're all fantastic! 

Each recyclable bottle retails for $12, available at A Beautiful Life.

WINNERS: The All Nighter Styling Powder




What's the hot new hair product everyone's talking about?
The All Nighter of course.

Yes, it's true! From A Beautiful Life, the chic and trendy boutique tucked away in the sleepy, artsy river town of New Hope, Pennsylvania, The All Nighter dry shampoo/styling powder has arrived on the scene and has swept up hair gurus, beauty addicts, and eco-peeps in its goodness.

Why is it different than other hair powders on the market? Oh I'm so glad you asked (he he). Appealing to both men and women, this product has the unique distinction of being completely all natural with a proprietary blend of pure plant ingredients, beneficial minerals, real silk powder and essential oils and matches beautifully to your hair color. That means its free of parabens, aluminum, talc, silica.

See what the Fox Morning Show with Mike and Juliet has to say about The All Nighter. (video)
Renowned hair guru Ted Gibson even had something to say about it...
