You may remember that some times ago I won a Karmin G3 Salon Pro Tourmaline Hair Straightener Flat Iron and I've been wanting to review it for a while but I always forget or something else comes in the way.

While searching the net for more info and to see what people were thinking of it, I was pleasantly surprised to discover that it's ranked among the best ceramic flat irons - it's even on the Top 10 Flat Irons list from Hair Products Pro!

The first times I used this iron, I noticed that it tugged my hair quite a lot if I didn't take my time to slowly glide it on my hair, and if I didn't set it to a temperature high enough. This is a little disappointing for a flat iron of this price but appart from that, it does the job quite well as my hair is left nicely straightened and shiny so I think it's a small price to pay.

I'm personally more drawn to 1" plates than any other size because I think it's the most versatile size - it allows you to not only straighten your hair, but also create waves and curls effortlessly.

This iron heats up really quickly and as it heats up to 450 degrees, it alllows you to select the perfect temperature based on your hair type. Another bonus is the swivel cord so you can easily manuever around without the cord tangling - I remember, with my old flat iron, the cord always ended up all tangled - so annoying!

Karmin G3 Salon Pro Hair Styling Iron is currently on sale for $129.95 (normally retails at $300!) at Hair Products Pro. Also be sure to have a look at the other products they have to offer such as clip in extensions.

Karmin G3 Salon Pro Professional 100% Pure Tourmaline Ceramic Flat Iron: I was absolutely amazed to win Sarah's giveaway as I was in the need for a new flat iron  because a) I've had my current one since high school and b) my mother has started to "steal" mine everyday and it annoyes me quite a bit to be honest! Here's the description of the Karmin G3 Salon Pro from HairTools.ca:

With New Advanced 100% Pure Tourmaline Ceramic Plates. The first iron with this advanced technology. These new plates allow your hair to slide through the plates without catching or pulling on your hair. plus the results are amazing.

• 360 swivel cord so you can easily manuever around without the cord tangling
• Variable temperture control up to 450Fwhich 
• Allows you to select the perfect tempurtare based on the hair type. If you have thick or curly hair you need an styling iron that reaches 450f.
• Professional high grade heating element that allows the iron to heat up quickly and to be used continuously without burning out during your styling.
• Dual voltage so you can bring your iron to other countries. great for traveling
• Slim handle design, no more bulky handles that make it hard to hold, with the slim handle it fits perfectly in your hands and is light to use.
• Curved plates that allow you to not only straighten your hair but you can also curl and style your hair in so many other ways. Thats why we call it a styling iron not a flat iron.
• 3 year warranty so you can rest assured that you new investment will last. if you have any problems just contact us and we will send you a replacement free of charge with no questions asked. 

I don't think I could have asked for a better flat iron (not to mention that it's hot pink)! Thank you so much for this amazing prize Sarah!

Sigma F45 Buffer Brush: Just like the majority of beauty bloggers out there, I'm part of Sigma Beauty Affiliate Program. Of course, the best part of being an affiliate is their awesome incentive program - which is way less awesome now that it has been updated, in my opinion. Previously Sigma provided complimentary products for all affiliates, regardless of their number of followers, subscribers or fans. However, this was a promotional period for the program that has now come to an end, which is very sad because now you have to have at least 1000 blog followers (or 5000 YouTube subscribers) to be able to redeem a complimentary product - not to mention that I personally think the products are way less interesting (I was aiming for the Synthetic Face Kit but it looks like I will have to do with the Cleansing & Polishing Tool). You can have a look at the new categories here. Anyway, it's just my opinion - I'm not complaining because I was lucky enough to have the chance to receive a complimentary Travel Kit in the past and now this Buffer Brush.

Now it's time to announce the winner of my Veet giveaway...

Taygan! Congrats!

Don't worry if you didn't win this time, my Sebastian Professional giveaway is open until Saturday at midnight!
