Streekers is instant, liquid, temporary hair color. It is easy to apply, can be brushed without losing the color, and washes out easily with just shampoo when you want it to. Streekers is available in eight vibrant colors, so you're sure to find the perfect color to compliment your style. You can find Streekers in pink, blue, ultra violet, red, green, yellow, orange, and purple. They have been featured in Cosmopolitan, InStyle, Glamour, Teen Vogue and more!
I was given the opportunity to test out Streekers and I was so excited. Granted these would have been perfect in my teenage years when I had more of a wild streek, but the streek is still there, it's just a little smaller now. ;o) I tried Streekers in Red. Red is one of my favorite colors and I really thought it would stand out the best in my hair. Now, my hair is dark brown. I have had people think my hair is black, it is such a dark brown. Unfortunately I was not able to get the vibrant red I was hoping for (Streekers does advise that their shades are vivid on blonde hair and more like subtle highlights on darker hair), but overall I really liked the look I got from it. Just nice red highlights throughout my hair. And best of all, since Streekers hair color can be brushed after it dries without flaking off, my hair is still soft when wearing. I find that the red in my dark hair is a great way to change up my look without being too dramatic. I tried to get a picture of Streekers in my hair, but it's so subtle for me it didn't show up very well on camera. I do think that if I would have applied it with a heavier hand it is possible to build up a stronger color on darker hair though, and maybe with a different color it might have been more dramatic.
To apply Streekers you just lift your hair up and away from your scalp in small sections, and apply from root to tip. Long strokes seem to work best, and it really does dry fast. In less than a minute I was able to touch the hair where Streekers was applied without getting color on my hands. I would recommend using a towel over your shoulders to protect clothing as it can stain them. It was very easy to wash out, for me I only needed one shampoo. Streekers advises that bleached blonde hair may need more washings, and that you can apply styling wax before application of Streekers as added precaution against staining. There are no harsh chemicals in Streekers, no ammonia or peroxide, and while there is an odor while applying (it goes away after it dries in your hair) it was not strong or overpowering and did not make me hurry to finish and open a window. To me, it wasn't as strong as say, painting my nails. I definitely want to get more of these, and I would feel comfortable using them with my girls.

I recently had the opportunity to try a few of the products that Auric Blends produces. I knew immediately, as soon as I found Auric Blends, that I had to try the Egyptian Goddess scent. The name itself drew me in. Auric Blends was kind enough to send me a nice selection of the items they carry for review. Three of their 1/3 ounce roll on perfumes, a jar of Amber Butter, White Gardenia perfumed solid, and Island Coconut incense. I felt absolutely indulgent when I opened the package, everything is so beautiful. I have not yet burned the incense but the scent is amazing. My incense holder is too small for these sticks, but I can't wait to pick up a new holder. I will not lie I have on more than one occaision held the pack up to my nose to breathe in the lovely scent of Island Coconut. 
One of the 1/3 ouce roll on perfume oils was in their signature scent, Egyptian Goddess. This unique blend combines soft florals, light powder and musk to create a perfume that is seductive, feminine and enticing. I am absolutely in love with this scent. It's bold and captivating, while still remaining gentle and feminine, and I find myself applying it more often than any other scent in my collection lately. Addicting. Also included were Love, and Water Goddess. Don't you just love their product names? Of the three I definitely prefer Egyptian Goddess, but I do enjoy Love as well. At first it was a bit too sweet for me, but after a little while it grew on me. They offer so many wonderful fragrance options in this line. Golden Honeysuckle, Lavender Dreams, Sandalwood Vanilla... It would be really interesting to wear more than one of these at a time as well I think and create your own signature fragrance. I am especially interested in trying their Naturals line, I love the inspiration behind them.
The Amber Butter and White Gardenia perfumed solids are a real treat. Not only are they wonderful scents (I actually seek out gardenia scents in lotion quite often, so I was excited to find this little gem tucked into the package I recieved), but they are gorgeous. Auric Blends line of perfumed solids includes 14 different fragrances, offering richly textured perfumes carried in a base of beeswax and coconut oil. I know I have mentioned here before that I like solid perfumes and find the staying power to be better in my experience. I would love to try out the Black Coconut and the Golden Vanilla, but I love the White Gardenia. It reminds me of summers at my grandmother's house, going to the beach, sitting out on her deck smelling the gardenias she had planted. I adore the fragrance of gardenias. The soapstone container is gorgeous as well. My photos do not do it justice and it is absolutely a display piece, mine is currently sitting on my dresser. I have no desire to sweep it away into a drawer or on to a shelf where it won't be seen.
