Makeup & Beauty Monday: Brilliant Glossing Shampoo with Olive Oil

I found this shampoo by accident. It honestly would never occur to me to spend more than $5 on shampoo, but after trying this one, I’ve heavily considered buying it myself. The way I was introduced to this shampoo was that my sister-in-law left her bottle in the shower at my in-laws’ house. I couldn’t resist trying it when I spotted it, and I really loved how it made my hair feel and look. You don’t need a lot of it to work up a rich lather, it smells great, and it made my hair shiny yet volumized. If I were to buy my own bottle, I’d probably save it for once a week or before a big event. This shampoo is available at Target and is $28.49. Even knowing how much I like it, I am still sensitive to the price, but maybe in a weaker, treat-myself moment, I’ll end up getting it. Brilliant Glossing Shampoo with Olive Oil

And — here are some of our latest threadjacks of interest – working mom questions asked by the commenters!
- The concept of “backup care” is so stupid…
- I need tips on managing employees in BigLaw who have to leave for daycare pickup…
- I’m thinking of leaning out to spend more time with my family – how can I find the perfect job for that?
- I’m now a SAHM and my husband needs to step up…
- How can I change my thinking to better recognize some of my husband’s contributions as important, like organizing the shed?
- What are your tips to having a good weekend with kids, especially with little kids? Do you have a set routine or plan?
What are your favorite jeans brands these days? After a few years of Old Navy Rockstars, I’d really like something that is more flattering on me and (relatedly) holds its shape better. Thanks!
I have a trip to Seattle later this week, any recommendations? I have about two afternoons free outside of my conference. I really like Northwest Coast art and would enjoy a gallery or boutique. I also thought I’d go running and visit the Brooks running store for fun.
J Brand has been working well for me. I’m tall and sort of straight/apple-ish.
We’re getting ready to add another kid to our family of 3. By that I mean we are going to open our home to another foster baby. With the caveat that we don’t know the timing, age or sex of our future little; what is your best advice for going from 1-2 kids?
We’re considering a home renovation project that would cause some dust (retexturing most of the house, but ourselves, so slowly). We have a three year old. Thoughts on (1) whether you’d worry about your toddler breathing in the dust, and (2) ways to make it more safe?
Co-sign Madewell. The 10″ or 11″ rise with no or little stretch work best for me, but they have a variety of styles. More expensive than Old Navy but not quite as bad as some of the premium brands. Plus they’ve held up well
Do you find premium shampoos really make a difference? I’ve started to buy them from my hairdresser (Ouidad mostly) but I’m not sure there’s a drastic change from my drugstore days. I have a purple conditioning mask that I really like, but apart from that haven’t found any magic hair products that I really love
Hi mom friends. I’m in the final stretches of preparing for my 1st baby. Just had my baby shower this weekend and now I’m looking to get the things I still need. While I got a bunch of cute outfits, I currently don’t have any plain white onesies. Few questions: (1) Do you have a favorite brand that is soft? I felt a few in stores that seemed to be really low quality material that felt scratchy, and I’d like to avoid that. (2) How many plain onesies would you recommend in each size for now? (3) Would you get short sleeve or long sleeve onesies for a winter baby (due very late November)?
Thank you! This is the first baby in her generation on both sides of the family and I’m the first to have a baby in my friend group, so I really appreciate the info on this board!!
I posted on the main page but will try here as well. We’re considering a move to Burlingame, CA. Does anyone have an intel about the public elementary schools in that city? They all seem good according to the rankings but I know those don’t tell the whole story. Our kid is well ahead of his peers in terms of reading/math and was wondering what resources they may have for differentiation. I see that there is a private school nearby called Nueva which is supposed to be for “gifted” kids, but we would personally rather go the public route.
I would buy the kimono style ones. I don’t have a brand name but they were so much easier to get on a wriggly baby who can’t support their head. H&m does multipacks of onesies that are very soft. I buy the burts bees pajamas and they are so nice. But don’t worry about getting colours – most baby clothes were thick enough that a onesie wouldn’t show through.
Does anyone have a crib mattress they recommend? I have naturpedic 2-stage mattresses for my twins and we’ve had them for 6 weeks and they are already sinking. i purchased them from Nordstrom, who has the best customer service ever and is willing to take them back, but does anyone have another recommendation. I had purchased them based on recs from Lucie’s List. I’ve never actually purchased a crib mattress before – are they supposed to sink in? also – is there a reason to actually have a 2 stage mattress or can a toddler just use the infant mattress side when it converts to a toddler bed?
Does anyone have a suggestion for a crib mattress? I had purchased the Naturpedic 2-Stage mattress, but after only 6 weeks of use it is sinking! Are crib mattresses supposed to sink? I purchased it from Nordstrom who is willing to take it back. Is there a reason to actually have a 2 Stage mattress? I chose the one I did after reading Lucie’s List.
Gosh, that’s definitely not supposed to happen. I’ve got the cheapest IKEA mattress and there is no sign of sinking.
Is it unreasonable to request a lock on one’s office door so that one can pump? I’m a biglaw associate with a private office, but for whatever reason, we have a policy against locks on doors. It was no problem to lock my office in other offices I’ve been in. We have one of those emergency door stoppers (not sure what they are called) that I have been using, so I guess this is not a major issue, but I wish we would just capture the low-hanging fruit to give returning mothers a bit of a hand. (I know my situation is a lot better than most! Just annoyed.)
After a weekend house party with a few couples who do not have kids, I realized just how often I let my child CIO, which of course is not an option in a home where people who do not have children actually sleep through the night. I am just exhausted, but at least last night when we put her down at home, she screamed bloody murder for 10 minutes and then slept through without a peep until 8:30. In other news, in witnessing the destruction a very active toddler can wreck on a non-baby-proofed house, endangering life, limb and property in approximately 2 minutes, I don’t think our friends will be having babies any time soon.
And when I pulled out my laptop at work this morning, Llama Llama Easter Egg was tucked inside. Mom life?
