So remember that “Friend’s” episode where Ross talks about his top list of celebrity crushes he’s allowed to sleep with? This is kinda like that…

I’ve decided to create my very own list of the hottest celebrities: Those VH1 / E / Maxim / etc. top sexiest star countdowns never float my boat. I always disagree with their list so here are my personal Top 10:

MY PERSONAL LIST OF HOTTEST MALES

10) Brad Pitt:

Brad will always be on my list no matter what. He is truly a beautiful specimen. Not only that but he is an amazing actor in both dramas and comedies. We love guys who can make us laugh! He’s #10 on my list because we’ve all been there and had crushes on him, so I keep him in my list and in the back of my mind but he’s not my current obession. He’s kind of played out but he’s still one of the hottest guys of all time.

9) Jake Gyllenhaal:

I didn’t think I would have a crush on him at all but have you seen him in interviews? He’s very witty and funny. I always thought of him as a serious type of guy because of his roles in movies (Donnie Darko, The Day After Tomorrow, Brothers) but knowing that he’s a fun guy sparks my interest. He has that dark brooding thing going on but he knows how to use it.

8) Sean Faris:

You might know him from “Never Back Down,” or “Yours, Mine and Ours.” He’s a cutie that is under the radar and isn’t really in the entertainment spotlight but he definitely shines in all of his movies. Sean Faris has played the sweet, good-guy roles to the vengeful fighter roles, but one thing’s for sure: he’s a hottie!

7) Ryan Phillipe:

After watching I know what you did last summer and then watching Cruel Intentions, Ryan Phillipe should definitely make every girl’s list. He has that bad boy appeal like “I don’t give a f**k about anyone,” and for some strange reason, chicks dig that. Not to mention he has the cutest face! :)

6) Cam Giganget:

What did I just say about bad boys? Cam is definitely a hottie in movies like “Never Back Down,” and in the show, “The O.C.” He is the ultimate bad boy that all the girls just can’t stop staring at. Hopefully, we’ll see more of him in the future.

5) Justin Timberlake:

J.T. is definitely a quadruple threat. He can sing, dance, act, and best of all, he has an amazing personality. He’s funny where he can make you laugh your ass off and next thing you know, he has you mezmemorized by serenading you with his music. He has it all and that’s why he’s on this list.

4) Ashton Kutcher:

Come on! He is a former model turned actor and not only is he an amazing model and actor, but he’s an entrepreneur! A beautiful entrepreneur might I add. He is attractive, sexy, yet silly and goofy. He has the entire package which any girl would go crazy over.

3) Channing Tatum:

Hubba Hubba. His face. His body. His shy charisma. His personality alone is very appealing. He has the kind of character that we root for, yet he has the manliness that guys can relate to (and be jealous of!) He has definitely shown his funny side in movies like She’s the man and Step it up. He’s a definite hottie!

2) Robert Pattinson:

Guys don’t understand this one at all. Well I’ll tell you why we love him: It’s because his smoldering stare, his hpnotic vampire-esque looks, and of course, his cold demeanor in Twilight. He acts snobby towards Bella which draws us in and creates curiosity. Then he protects her which throws us off and we think, “Aww, he’s actually really sweet.” Then he acts forceful and even initaties the liplock which tells us, “Yowza, now that’s a real man!” (Okay fellas, this is what girls like and if it seems contradicting, screw you) Robert Pattinson is one guy that girls don’t even see coming and yet he sweeps us off our feet and he doesn’t even do it intentionally! He definitely knows how to wow a girl.

1) Once every so often, I have a slight obsession with a celebrity. My previous crush was Robert Pattinson. My current obsession?

BRADLEY COOPER!!!

My gosh that man is gorgeous!

It makes me think… Why are we so fanatical about people who are just as normal as us?
And why do Bradley Cooper’s twinkling blue eyes give me butterflies in my stomach?
Well, whatever the reason…you can’t deny that he’s exciting. His beautiful blue eyes and bright white smile keeps us guessing. He goes from a hunky jerk, to a crazy party animal, and then to a sweet wholesome guy. He keeps us excited with his different roles and personalities.  The strength of his personality, his charm, and his mere presence is magnetic. He’s a very captivating actor – It’s hard not to notice him…he’s such a mega hottie!

I might make another list tomorrow with a list of the hottest females! Hope you enjoyed my list! Ta ta!

Yep, yes I did. You heard it here first, I got the Brazilian Blowout!!! I was lucky to be chosen as one of the “models,” for a hair salon so they could test it on me. Sorry, I don’t have a “Before” picture because I was too excited and didn’t even think about it. =/ But I do have a few “After” pictures and you can see the shine and bounce in my hair. Lookie…

So far, I love it. It keeps my hair soft, tangle-free, easy to straighten, and it keeps my bangs in place. My hair was very damaged so during the process, a lot of my split ends broke off so I have quite a bit of baby hair, but I have less frizz overall so it’s not too bad. I love that it cuts my drying time in half. I don’t even have to blow dry it really.

I think this treatment is worth it but unfortunately, I didn’t have enough money to buy the shampoo/conditioner/serum and without the Brazilian Blowout items, your hair’s healthiness will fade. I didn’t believe it but yup, it’s true. My hair isn’t as shiny as it was when I first got it done but it’s still very easy to straighten and a lot healthier than before. :)

If you have no idea what the heck I’m talking about, read my Brazilian Blowout blog here: http://tasteofhunni.com/2010/01/14/brazilian-blowout/

A few people asked me to list all the makeup I use. I don’t have the time to list every single thing I use but I can name some of my favorites off the top of my head.

This list will change constantly because I’m always finding something new that I like. For now, here’s the list of makeup items I’m currently using:

Eyeshadow: Sephora has these little eyeshadow palettes for $15. Love how small they are, fit right into my purse, so I use those. I love MAC palettes where you can pick your own. Toofaced duo eyeshadows are freakin AWESOME.
Eyeliner: Liquid: Almay Liquid Liner is my love. I haven’t found anything better than that other than Mac. 
Pencil: Rimmel’s Eye liner but I also LOVE Mac’s. I just think the Mac one is overpriced for a pencil eyeliner.
Mascara: Right now, it’s Ulta Showstopper.
Lipgloss: I’m not a huge fan of lipstick but I love lip glosses. My fave is Mac Viva Glam VI. They also have a good one called Sinnamon which I alternate with.
Powder: MAC Studio Fix. People may say it’s bad for you but ehhh…it covers all my blemishes. Everyday Minerals has really good mineral powders and also, pressed powders. I like Sephora but I wish they packed more powder in it because I go through it in like 2 weeks.
Blush: MAC Gingerly. Victoria’s secret has a really good bronzer that you can use as a blush. It’s called Glitterati.
Bronzer: Toofaced has really good bronzers.

There ya go. Those are some of my faves…but I’m always on the lookout for better products. :)

I am absolutely in love with a few products from the Bumble & Bumble line, as well as a few from Schwarzkopf. I nabbed a few products a few days ago and wanted to let you in on some goodies:

(P.S. I have really dry, coarse, thick, wavy, damaged, colored hair, so any hair products that actually work on me is AMAZING!)

Bumble & Bumble “Does It All” Styling Spray

Stars: 9/10


This is a MUST-HAVE! I can’t stress this enough. Listen to this:

I first saw this product when I was at a hair salon and I saw another girl straightening her own hair with, in my opinion, the best flat iron ever, the HAI Convertable. Her hair looked straight but damaged and fried. A stylist stepped in and offered some of this B&B Styling Spray. It comes in aerosol form, kinda like a hairspray and with the can held 10 inches away, you literally spray it all over your hair. (You can never spray too much which is a definite plus.)

She sprayed it and then straightened her hair and it was like magic. Her hair was smooth, frizz-free, and really straight. It was like a whole new head of hair! I asked the stylist to try some on me. And GEEZUS, my hair had the same outcome. If you’ve seen my natural hair, you would know that it takes a miracle for my hair to look even remotely healthy. I was so impressed, I grabbed one right away.

You basically use it before you use a heat styling product, so it’s good whether you want to curl your hair or straighten your hair. It’s 10 ounces and about $25. IT IS WORTH IT! (I’m sure you can find it cheaper somewhere online) I’m the best bargain shopper ever but sometimes when I see a brilliant product every now and then, I have to have it! It’s such a rare gem!

Schwarzkopf Bonacure Q10 Treatment

Stars: 7/10


This is a deep conditioner that you can use in place of your regular conditioner. I use it once a week since it’s stronger than regular conditioner. After you shampoo, you just put a generous amount on your damp hair and leave it in for about 10-20 minutes. I leave it in for about 5 minutes since I take really quick showers. It’s a really light, creamy formula and it feels great. Really leaves your hair soft and light, so it still gives your hair body and movement. 

The Q10 is the same used in skincare products. The ingredients in Q10 will bring back elasticity making your hair healthier and soft.

Schwarzkopf Moisture Kick Shampoo

Stars: 6.5/10


Let me remind you again how damaged my hair is. This shampoo is so moisturizing, that you won’t even need a conditioner. It doesn’t really lather like normal shampoo and it’s more milky than soapy. It almost feels like a conditioner in the sense that it doesn’t sud up, but it is still cleansing and feels great.

I recommend this just to have on the side when you’re in a hurry for work or school or whatever and just want to clean your hair really quick. I like this because it’s moisturizing but if you have greasy or oily hair, I can see why you wouldn’t like this. You can use it once a week whenever your hair’s lacking moisture.

Schwarzkopf Bonacure Smooth Control Shampoo and Conditioner Duo

Stars: 9/10


This is my favorite out of all the products. Not only does it come in a 2 pack but they are 33 ounces each! This can easily last me around 5 months at least.  

What I like about these two products is that it doesn’t just moisturize like most shampoos and conditioners claim to do. It targets frizz and basically doubles as a styling product too. Once you use this shampoo and conditioner, you will see a difference in you hair. 

Once your hair dries, you’ll see less frizz, a smoother appearance, and easier maintenance. My hair looked amazingly healthy after I used this combination.

Okay folks, that’s all I have for now. I will update once I find some more goodies. =)
P.S. If I’m MIA, I’ll be working on a whole new site with more content and goodies. I’m excited too because I’ll have a new cute layout too. I’ll still be around here and there, but I’m really excited to work on the new site.
