hair drama

A little while a go i totally frazzled my hair trying to do d.i.y highlights .I went to a hairdressers to get some help to say they were disgusted with what I had done is a understatement. When asking what they could do they offered a treatment for £55 but id need more then one , there was no way I could afford this what to do ?? hmmm . I decided to Google what I could buy at home of the same quality .Thats when I came up with this beauty


babyFACE pure protein it promised to repair damaged hair shafts while adding shine and manageability this is a very basic description. I suggest goggling it yourself for the fall one its to long to write . At 21.99 I thought that it was a little expensive for the size but was in disparate need. I read the reviews and most were great and exactly what I wanted and defo a better option then cutting my hair all off. when it arrived I was a bit pessimistic how was this small bottle going to save my hair .I did it straight away and omg it really worked from the first application there was dramatic results . I noticed a remarkable difference...my hair was extremely soft with less breakage. I've been using the product for a few of months now since feb to be exact and my hair looks beautiful now. It is longer, very soft, healthy and the breakage has stopped. As long as they make this product, I will buy it.
A little really goes a long way I still have loads left so the bottle is deceiving . If you bleach or colour your hair and want to give your hair its life back then give it a try .I LOVE IT 
follow the instructions and you really don't need more then it says ,(like I was thinking you would or to leave it any longer then it says) . My miracle in a bottle .

Because I love my gadgets (hair be gone)

This had to have a mention in my blog because its a staple in my life . Every girl  needs one of these in there life,like straighteners or my curling wand I wouldn't be without one . Ive used my epilator for about nine years now .Yes at first it hurt and I almost gave up on it but after a couple times that stops ,there were a few problems I experienced like when the hair first grew back id get a kind of weird stinging sensation (weird ey?) I'm not sure why this happened maybe I had 2 get used to it but now i get no discomfort at all .My hair grows back finer and sparser I get a smoother finish none of that stubble .Being a mum I haven't got time to shave all the time and quite frankly cant be bothered .An epilator plucks the hair from the root its made up of lots of little tweezer things so it takes longer 2 grow back there are so many pluses to this product,no more shaving shadow either .I do my bikini line under arm and legs its kind of similar to waxing but less messy and convenient to do in your home and you don't have to wait for fall grow back .So never an excuse to be hairy again ,unless you like that look .
 Some tips ill give to you
1:Don't give up the first couple times it hurts because the hairs thicker and coarser from shaving , but this goes away promise.
2:Get a pair of exfoliating gloves for the bath this stops ingrown hairs etc.
3:Don't shave cause it cuts the hair and if done to often will make the hair thicker then it could cause discomfort again.


they range in price mine was £30 just basic but I never buy shaving stuff any more
it has a shaver head to which I forgot to take a pic of 

this is my leg and I haven't done it for two weeks amazing 
what do you use ???

Its a keeper


£9.00 a tub lasts me a couple mths plus they had it on a bogof  offer so it was even better value
body shop is always having offers on and if you join the website they send you offers like 20%
off etc 
The body shop Seaweed mattifying day cream for oily/ combination skin. I've falling in love with this product ,it has a nice refreshing scent and feel to it when you apply it ,plus its oil free .I'm always scared when trying new face creams as i have sensitive skin that breaks out quickly if it don't like something ,but I've bin using it for a couple weeks now and not one blemish.I wanted something to stop shine halfway through the day and this has worked .I apply after washing my face and before applying my foundation . I did buy the whole seaweed collection from body shop but have decided to introduce them one by one to my regime as that way if any i will be able to tell which one was breaking me out. I've learnt this the hard way as i use to change a lot of things at once then never knew which ones didn't agree with me.Its more of a gel like cream and does exactly what it says on the tin. I also have to give praise to the body shop online ordering service they were quick to dispatch my products big thumbs up.Heres what the body shop says about the cream                                                             This oil-free, gel-like moisture cream is easily absorbed and perfect for combination skin.

  • Moisturises dry areas
  • Balances excess sebum
  • Gives a matte, shine-free complexion
for me it does exactly that

Revlon haul (because I cant get to mac)

sorry for them being used I was planning to do this post when I bought them but have been so busy 

I was in superdrug the other day and wanted to get a powder because I'd read a few posts lately about how it sets your foundation.I've tried powders before but have not really liked them because I thought they gave that caked on  finish if you get what I mean they kind of also washed me out and felt to dry on my skin , but I had a party to go to and wanted that perfect photo finish. So while browsing I came across the Revlon photo ready powder and concealer . The back said "perfected airbrushed skin in any light covers flaws and eliminates shine " so I popped  them into my basket, it offered what I wanted so id give it a try. The packaging was nice to it came with a brush (which I prefer to a sponge ) and a mirror so handy to pop in my bag and have with me when I'm on the go.So far I really like it gives a good finish to my make up and has proved perfect for touch ups its also light so I don't feel over powdered.The cover is sheer so probably not so good if your looking  for something more. I'm not sure weather I'd repurchase as I've seen good reviews about the Maybelline dream matte powder and would like to give that a try,but I would defo go back to it if I find nothing better.
-
Here's what was written about the concealer "- Helps erase imperfections and camouflage dark undereye circles.

- Lightweight, creamy texture blends seamlessly.

- Photochromatic pigments bend, reflect and diffuse light.

- Soft luminous, finish.

- Professionally designed formula and shades developed and tested under the harshest lighting and high definition conditions.

- SPF 20.
The concealer is ok its creamy and blends nicely easy to apply and stayed on for 12 hours and also gave a natural finish.I like the packaging not sure how hygienic it is cause its a stick  ,but again will try something different when it runs out because nothing really stood out for me. Although my pictures did come out flawless day and night so if I find nothing better I would go back to it .

Pretty coloured nails ...

The other day I picked up some cheapy nail varnish ,I was just passing a random shop and fell in love with the colours and at £1 each how could I say no. I got home to find corrie one of my fave blogs  had written this fab post about why choose one colour .She was so right id just bought them and wanted to try all three out so I took her advice and did ...I absolutely love the out come. The nail varnishes themselves are quite good cause this pic was taken three days after I applied them and they've not chipped ,the colours are all a nice finish , the only down fall is that they were a little weird to apply as they seemed to go on lumpy, I was worried they'd stay like that but they dried smooth and quick .I matched my toenails the same way lol
