Full, Thick, Fresh Ombré

Hello Girlies!

Today's post is more about hair! 
Recently, I have been dreaming of getting my hair ombréd but a blonde version instead! I love doing quirky little things to my hair and this being one of them! 



I decided to get it done at Toni&Guy, because I love their adverts and they are really specialised in colour so I put all my confidence in them! 

I asked for a dark blonde/Caramel on top and bleach blonde at the bottom, just to banish any pesky yellow tones and clean it up! I wanted it to be subtle not too over the top and not to dark either. 

I'm honestly so so happy with the result and wish I did it earlier! I love my new hair and I hope you guys like it too! 

OGX Biotin & Collagen Hair Mist £6.99 Available from Boots 

Obviously hair dye isnt great for your hair so after I get it coloured I really treat it with masks and oils just to help it look less dried out and whispy. Recently I've been non-stop using this fantastic product and I've seen a huge difference in volume, health, vibrancy it honestly ticks all the boxes for me! 
It's an organic oil made from biotin & Collagen, which both promote strong, full, thick, healthy hair! 
It's a dry oil so you can spritz it on to damp or dry hair when ever you feel like you need a little boost! 

What would be your dream hair style?

Tea&Crumpets, anyone?

Hello lovelies & welcome back! 

As spring is now finally upon us, I've been going around decorating the rooms with daffodils & fluffy chicks for Easter! I love decorating and matching the rooms to the seasons/events such as Halloween, Easter, Valentine's Day, birthdays..etc! 

I was doing my usual wondering around boots and of course came across the Essie stand. For some reason, I get pulled into that stand like it's got it's own gravitational force-field and I can't help it! I think it's because it's so clean and bright, and all the colours of nail polishes look amazing in front of its pristine white background. 

After about 5-10 minutes of standing there slightly mesmerised I suddenly thought I should of really by now picked up a colour and moved on, but I hadn't.. Luckily, I'm allowed to wear nail polish where I work so I had no limits, but I kept going back to this gorgeous shimmery nude colour called Tea&Crumpets. 


I thought it was perfect for spring and I'll be honest I loved the name of the colour! Essie, has always been one of my favourite brands of nail products, their colours are stunning, last ages without chipping & dry really quickly too! They've never let me down & I will forever mesmerised by their huger array of stunning colours! 

What's your favourite brand of nail varnish?

Stepping Into Spring

Hello Everybody & Welcome Back! 

Todays post is all about stepping back into spring and what products I'm really loving and helping me combat the spring transition! 

Spring is without doubt my favourite time of year, everything is blossoming and coming back to life after the cold winter months. 
Here are a few of my favourite products which help me along the way! 

1. Makeup Removal


Bioderma has been my number #1 for years! 
Its a water cleanser, which has hundreds of befits such as gentle exfoliation, moisture and makeup removal, its perfect for thirsty skin! 
The Bioderma H2O has been formulated from sensitive skin, this assures everybody that you can use it on the extra sensitive areas on your face such as your eyes and won't cause any aggravation, leaving your skin feeling fresh, hydrated and cleansed.

2. Moisturising


Recently I have been loving the Ponds range!
They come in various different formulations for different skin types, I use the Hydro-Nourishing Cream. This moisturiser makes my skin feel amazing. I use it every morning and every night and have been for about a month and I've definitely noticed a massive change in my skin texture and look (so have my friends!) Its available from Boots for only £4.99 and I'm so impressed with the results! 

3. Foundation




This Estee Lauder Foundation is my holy grail Go-To foundation, Its one I always turn to and makes my skin look even, smooth and lasts all day (honestly - It won't budge!) 
This foundation gives you medium coverage and is very buildable if you feel like you need a little more, but personally I don't need to even use concealer with this foundation and a little goes a very long way! 
What I love about this foundation is that it also contains SPF which for these spring/summer months is a very important! 

4. Mascara


This mascara has recently been on the top of everybody mascara charts recently, Its formula is lovely and think which really grips onto your eyelashes and gives them lift, volume and curl which doesn't flake or come off throughout the day.
The wand is a hour glass shape which I love, this is definitely my favourite type of mascara wand because I feel as though it really captures every single on of my lashes and gives them a lot of lift. 


Not only do certain types of products make me feel ready for spring. Recently I've been loving long walks, I always feel relaxed coming back from a walk in the sun with the cold wind 'blowing the cobwebs away'.
I've also been drinking lots of water, as keeping hydrated through these months is very important for your skin and detoxing.

Thank you for reading!

My Everyday Makeup

Hello Everybody, 
Todays post is just a quick insight into my everyday makeup I wear, 
Im a HUGE fan of flicked eyeliner and honestly where it every single day. 

details:
Urban Decay - Naked 2 pallet
Rimmel London - Glam eyes liquid eyeliner
Too Faced - Better than sex mascara
MAC - RiRi Woo Lipstick

I will be starting to do tutorials of my makeup and various looks, but first I thought I would show you how/what I usually wear on a day-to-day basis. 

RiRiWoo by MAC is probably my favourite Limited Edition MAC lipstick - ever. 
Its so buildable and the colour is beautiful, but Im over half way and have to use it sparingly, so as a replacement I use MAC RubyWoo, which featured in my last post! They're both very similar as they're matte and both have blue undertones - this creates the illusion of white teeth! the only difference is RubyWoo is a lighter shade of red. 

I love wearing red lipstick when I'm not at work.
 Its the perfect statement, timeless and add heaps of glam to any outfit, which for me - is a must!
I usually pair it with a light brown smoky eye, and a cat flick of eyeliner, as its not too intense and doesn't take all the focus away from the lips (you either want to emphasise one or the other)

Hope you enjoyed the post,
any questions? just leave a comment & I'll get back to you!
