Beauty Splurge vs. Steal of the Week: Redken Diamond Oil


Redken Diamond Oil beauty for less

In this weekly column, I’m bringing you my favorite beauty products that won't break the bank. Also make sure to check out my blog, HonestlyJamie.com for even more beauty product reviews, advice and tips.

REDKEN Diamond Oil Deep Facets Oil-Enriched Intensive Treatment is by far one of the best deep conditioners (aka treatment) that I’ve tried in awhile and, even though it’s designed for dry/damaged hair, I still always recommend it to any friends who complain about having dry, split ends because it definitely DOES the trick…but the $23 pricetag?


Marsala: The New Neutral


Marsala Home Decor Finds on a Budget

In this weekly column, I'm sharing high-style tips and finds that are budget-friendly, too! This week, I'm sharing tips and items to bring Pantone's Color of the Year home. Find more decor ideas on my blog, A Vintage Splendor.

Marsala has elicited so much vibrant discussion for being such a muted hue as soon as it was announced as Pantone's Color of the Year. Although it's not loved by the design community as much as last year's Radiant Orchid, it is much easier to incorporate this hue at home. Marsala is a reddish-brown that will translate well to interiors and decor because it's a rich and inviting hue that commands attention. Whether you're looking to add a new neutral color or giving your space a makeover, Marsala will work well in a variety of spaces and aesthetics.
