Achieve long-lasting shine that gives your hair a healthy vibe. Whether you color your hair or not, a single application of Shine Happy delivers gorgeous, silky shine.

How To Use Do the skin allergy test 48 hours before each application, even if you have already used coloring products. HELPFUL HINTS Apply color to dry hair that is free of styling product build-up. Do not shampoo immediately before coloring as the scalp's natural oilshelp to protect it during coloring. BEFORE STARTING: • Have a clock ready for timing • Put on Gloves • Comb hair gently • Put towel around shoulders to protect clothing STEP 1: Get Ready to Color • Tear off and discard the tab from the Color Activating Crème (Bottle #2). Then unscrew the cap. • Open the Color-Enhancing Colorant (Bottle #1) and squeeze entire contents into Bottle #2. • Replace cap. Place gloved finger tip on cap, point away from face, and shake well until the color has fully mixed. STEP 2: Apply Color For Roots and All-Over Color • After mixing, apply color immediately to dry hair. • Apply mixture first to your roots and where you have the most gray. • When roots are completely covered, apply remaining color quickly to the rest of your hair by parting and lifting  hair as you apply. • Work mixture through until hair is completely saturated. Do not rub into scalp. STEP 3: Wait 10 Minutes • Now, start your timer for just 10 minutes (or the time indicated by your strand test). For resistant gray hair, you may  need to leave color on for an additional 5 minutes, for no longer than a total of 15 minutes. STEP 4: Rinse and Condition • Rinse until water runs clear. • Gently massage a quarter-sized amount of the Color Treat™ Conditioner (3) through your hair. • Leave on for 2 minutes, then rinse. • Save remaining Color Treat Conditioner to use once a week for fresh, radiant color and healthier-looking hair.* If any color gets on your skin or household surface, wipe it off immediately with a damp towel. Once mixed, never re-seal or store the color in a closed container, as it could burst. Pour any unused color mixture down the drain as it will lose its effectiveness after 30 minutes. STEP 5: Refresh Your Color After 2 Weeks Natural Instincts ColorFresh™ RevitalizerBoost your color in just minutes! Use it 2 weeks after you have colored your hair. Note: Before using it, conduct another skin allergy test 48 hours before application by applying a small amount of the product to an area the size of a quarter in the bend of your elbow and allowing to dry. Do not wash this area for 48 hours. If there are no skin reactions, proceed with product application. If a rash, redness, burning or itching occurs, you must not use this product. The color of the Revitalizer product does not represent your final hair color result. • Shampoo hair as usual. • Put on gloves. • Apply the entire sachet of ColorFresh™ Revitalizer and distribute uniformly through the hair. • Leave on for 5 minutes—if you want a more intense color result, leave on for up to 10 minutes. • Rinse thoroughly and style as usual. You do not need to apply conditioner afterwards. *vs. untreated Frequently Asked Questions: When do you use the Color Refresher? For optimal results, the Color Refresher should be used about two weeks (or 15 days) after your initial coloring. What does the color refresher do? The Color Refresher is an easy way to bring back the shine and revitalize your hair color after it is has started to fade. How do you use the Color Refresher? The Color Refresher is easy to use in the shower: Shampoo your hair as normal Put on the extra set of gloves found in your box of Natural Instincts Put the Color Refresher packet of product into your hand Apply the entire sachet and distribute uniformly through the hair Leave on the hair for 5 minutes and rinse it out (no need to apply conditioner). Emerge from the shower with a boost of colorand incredible shine or with a revitalized look! Does all hair color fade? All hair color products – both at-home and professional – fade. Most of the fading happens during the first two weeks. To help overcome this concern, we’re including a Color Refresher in every box of Natural Instincts, which gives your hair a boost to revitalize your color. How do I choose between the existing line of Natural Instincts vs. Natural Instincts Vibrant? Natural Instincts is a great solution for women who want to enhance their natural color and blend grays away with no visible roots. In talking with women we learned they loved Natural Instincts’ healthy looking hair color promise, but craved a permanent solution. Natural Instincts Vibrant fulfills both with a formula that delivers healthy-looking hair coloring with long-lasting, permanent color and 100% gray coverage.

Completely cover the hair strand with the mixture remaining from the Allergy Test. Start timing. After 10 minutes (8 minutes for permed or relaxed hair), check the strand. If the strand is not the color you want, return it to the mixture and check the color every few minutes for up to 20 minutes. Fill in your personal color time below: My timing for desired color: _______ minutes. USEFUL TIPS FROM THE EXPERTS AT CLAIROL: • If hair has build-up, shampoo one day prior to coloring. Do not shampoo immediately before coloring. Your scalp has natural oils that help protect it during coloring. • To prevent staining, apply a little moisturizer around your hairline. • For best results, do not shampoo your hair for 24 hours after coloring. • If you plan to perm your hair, perm first, and then you can use Natural Instincts the very same day as long as your scalp is not irritated and is in good condition. • If you plan to chemically relax your hair, relax your hair first, and then wait at least 7 days and one shampoo before coloring.

A Day-to-Day Guide to your Healthy and Happy pregnancy

Whether this is pregnancy number 1 or number 10, nothing makes it easier to connect with a growing baby than knowing exactly what magical development is happening every day. Filling the need for practical information, medical data, emotional and spiritual fuel, and even "pregnancy trivia," The Pregnancy Journal is easily one of the best books available for a woman or couple expecting a baby. The journal contains about half a page of information for each day from conception through delivery. Nutrition, how to avoid discomforts associated with pregnancy, childbirth customs in other cultures, and practical parenting tips are among the topics touched on. Many days in the journal have a great section called "Did You Know"; for example, from Day 49: "The baby's arms at this point are only as long as this printed 1." At the bottom of each page is a quote from a literary or historical figure; some are sentimental, some pithy, some humorous, all inspiring. The information and quotes seem to invite musings and speculation on the miracle unfolding inside the womb; there is some space for recording data and thoughts, but if you want to write more than just a few lines every few days, you might want to have a blank journal to accompany The Pregnancy Journal. The format of this book makes it much more manageable and inviting than most books on pregnancy, and the information is made even more accessible by the inclusion of a glossary/subject index in the back. Don't wait until the shower to give this excellent resource and thoughtful gift--moms-to-be will want to have it from the very beginning. --Katherine Ferguson

Believing for God's Best, Joel Osteen An Interview with Joel Osteen Q: Do you have a hero? A: Of course, my greatest hero is Jesus Christ. He should be everyone's greatest hero. However, among men, I have two real heroes. My father, John Osteen, was not only the best father anyone could ever have, but was my best friend as well. He was a man of great integrity, and he taught me how important it was to incorporate Jesus Christ into every part of my life. Another of my heroes is Billy Graham who throughout the years has remained true to that which God called him to do and has done so with the utmost dedication, humility, and integrity. Q: In today's conflicted world, how do you encourage people to maintain their faith? A: As believers we should be assured that Jesus said He would never leave us nor forsake us. We should adopt a mindset that God wants to be involved in our everyday lives, through good times and difficult times. We should communicate with God throughout our day (to pray without ceasing), not just when we are in crisis. He cares about our lives even in the small things. There is no part of our lives that are insignificant to Him. Q: What did working behind the scenes at Lakewood during your father's ministry inform how you preach today? A: Really it all started for me when I was born. Our family never missed church; Sunday morning, Sunday night and Wednesday night, week in and week out. However, for 17 years I did produce and edit my father’s sermons for television. I often joke that I attended one year of college and 17 years of seminary. For those 17 years, I would have to study my father's weekly sermons and then cut them down to a 28-minute TV program while maintaining the message. I guess I've listened to at least 1,500 of my father’s messages. Q: Your ministry reaches millions each week through television and the Internet. How has technology changed how people worship today? A: Through telecommunications technology, especially the web, more Christian programming is available than ever before. Not only do people have more choices in Christian programming, but they can get as much as they want whenever they want it. I think that our use of technology results in people spending more of their time thinking about the things of God. However, I don't see technology replacing worship in the traditional sense--that is worshipping with other believers in a church. Everyone should belong to a good Bible-based church. Q: In our busy lives, what is your advice for how we can slow things down and find peaceful moments? A: Personally, I take time each morning to spend with God. I have a quiet place in my home or I find a quiet place if I am traveling where I pray and seek guidance from God. I think that is the best way for anyone to start their day; it really sets the tone for each day. Q: As a father, what advice would you share with parents struggling with our fast-paced culture? A: Victoria and I decided a long time ago that our family takes priority over most everything else. I tell people all the time that their families should be their first mission field. Today, it takes a great deal of our time and energy to make a living. We need to make sure our families don't get the short end of the stick and we need to make time for them. And, I am talking about "quality time"; no cell phones, no business calls, no outside distractions, just family.

D-Rex Interactive Pet Dino is the ultimate pet. A ferocious yet loyal dinosaur with an independent personality, D-Rex combines robotics, proprietary software and reptilian skin to create a lifelike appearance and behavior. He'll walk, chomp, bare his teeth and roar to let you know what he wants. D-Rex might demand food or want to play a game, and he'll hear your voice and respond to your touch. Like the ideal pet, D-Rex will protect your stuff and attack on command. Requires four "C" batteries, included, and two "AA" batteries, not included. Measures 22"L x 8.75"W x 13.28"H.

Ultra-fierce and unbelievably fun, the D-REX Interactive Dinosaur is a cool, prehistoric creature with a personality all his own. Designed to keep kids eight and up entertained for days, this robotic D-REX moves, roars, and responds to your child's voice and touch. A bone-shaped controller even lets you "train" him as a guard dinosaur or an attack pet. .caption { font-family: Verdana, Helvetica neue, Arial, serif; font-size: 10px; font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; } ul.indent { list-style: inside disc; text-indent: -15px; } table.callout { font-family: verdana; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.3em; } td.think { height: 125px; background: #9DC4D8 url(http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/detail-page/callout-bg.png) repeat-x; border-left: 1px solid #999999; border-right: 1px solid #999999; border-bottom: 1px dotted #000000; padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px; padding-bottom: 10px; width: 250px; } td.glance { height: 100%; background: #9DC4D8; border-left: 1px solid #999999; border-right: 1px solid #999999; padding-top: 10px; padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px; padding-bottom: 10px; width: 250px; } img.withlink {border:1px black solid;} What We Think Fun Factor: Durability: (what this means) The Good: Ferocious robotic dinosaur! The Bad: Background noise can make it tough for him to "seek" you out In a Nutshell: This smart, quirky "pet" will inspire tons of imaginative play At a Glance Ages: 8 and up Requires: 5 C batteries and 2 AAA batteries D-REX features authentic looking rubbery, reptilian skin. View larger. Controller lets you prompt five different types of behavior. View larger. Get Ready for Realistic, Imaginative Fun Right out of the box, this scaly pet D-REX feels more authentic than most other dinosaur toys on the market. His rubbery, reptilian skin is loosely stretched to accommodate movement, and he has a slightly strange texture that is soft to the touch. While his oversized feet and a fun spiked collar balance his menacing teeth and his darting yellow eyes, he is still a little scary looking. Don't worry--you'll soon discover that he has a sense of humor and a soft spot for anyone willing to scratch the back of his head. Before you start getting to know D-REX personally, you'll need to use a Phillips screwdriver to insert five "C" batteries in his tail and two "AAA" batteries in the bone-shaped controller. Once he's powered up, D-REX is ready to start showing off and responding to his surroundings. He'll roar, turn his head, and blink his eyes. Cool Robotics Technology for Interactive Play When you pet D-REX on the head, touch sensors let him respond with an appreciative roar. If he seems hungry, you can stick something in his mouth and he'll chomp away on it. And the bone-shaped controller lets you prompt five different types of behavior. Press "attack," and he'll launch forward while roaring. Press "prank," and he'll fart, burp, or roar. In seek mode, he uses a noise sensor to locate you and walk towards you. Due to the room's background noise, we found that he had some difficulty with this task. But it was funny (and kind of cute) when he bumped into walls and backed away in surprise. Perhaps our favorite mode was "guard." In this mode, you can set D-REX up in front of your bedroom door or your favorite toys and he will scan the room, letting out a big roar if he detects the motion of "intruders." There's even a question mode that lets you replace your out-dated magic eight ball with dinosaur wisdom. Each time you press this button, D-REX will answer a question by nodding "Yes" or shaking his head "No." D-REX is programmed to respond as a pet with an independent mind. This means that, despite his five-button remote, he won't walk where ever you want him to. Kids who expect to "drive" him around the room like a remote control car may be disappointed, but we actually enjoyed this fact a lot, since it made him more realistic. And we expect that kids who are fascinated by either dinosaurs or robotics will agree with us on this. As an added bonus, D'REX offers a battery-saving sleep mode, which parents are sure to appreciate. What's in the Box D-REX Dinosaur and bone-shaped controller.
