My Favourite Hair Products

Hello everyone, 

I apologise for my very long absence! I haven't had time to blog lately as I have been busy starting back at uni and haven't had much time on my hands at all!
I have still been keeping up with your lovely blogs though and now I am settled back into my flat, it means I'll have plenty more time to blog!

Also I want to welcome the new followers I've gained whilst I've been away! 
Thank you so much for following my blog and I hope you enjoy reading my future posts!

Now my little ramble is out of the way, lets get on with my favourite hair products! I use all of these products on a regular basis and I would say I cannot live without them!

Dove Overnight Intensive Repair |  VO5 Nourish Me Truly Conditioner | Herbal Essences Split Beautiful Ends Leave-in Conditioner | TRESemme Deep Cleansing Shampoo | It's a 10 Miracle Leave-in Conditioner | Batiste Dry Shampoo - Tropical | The Body Shop Macadamia Straightening Balm | Davines MOMO Moisturizing Curl Enhancing Serum.

All of these products work brilliantly on my hair! If you haven't tried any of them yet then I highly recommend you do! Most of these products work well to combat frizz and fly-away hair! Definitely my favourite must-have hair products!

What are your Holy Grail hair products??

Urban Decay Book of Shadows IV

Hello everyone, I hope you are well!

Last week my lovely boyfriend ordered me the Urban Decay Book of Shadows IV (Vol.4) for £29.99 on a Wowcher deal from JustShe.co.uk  and since then I have been impatiently waiting for it to arrive and this morning it finally did! (Not that I had been waiting very long at all!)

The colours in this palette are gorgeous, I am so excited to try them out!

I will be doing a full review of this palette as well as make up tutorials, let me know if there are any specific looks you would like to see using these stunning shades! 

Have you tried any Urban Decay Palettes?

August Favourites

Hello everyone, I hope you are all well!

Today I am sharing my August Favourites with you.
 

MUA Glamour Days Palette £4.00
This palette is gorgeous! I love how pigmented the colours are and they last me all day without creasing. The colours are gorgeous shades of both matte and shimmers, I have really been enjoying them this summer!

Ben Nye Banana Powder $7.99 (£5.00)
I have been LOVING this powder, I have done a full review on this which you can read it here. I love how flawless it makes my skin look and how it controls my shiny face all day!

MAC Sculpt and Shape - Accentuat/Sculpt
I don't know a price for this as I believe it has been continued but I got this from The Sunday Girl's blog sale a few months ago and have really been loving it! I use it to contour my cheeks and my nose etc I use the lighter shade to highlight my cheekbones and brow bone.

Sleek Blush - Flamingo £4.29
This is such a gorgeous pink colour, it is very pigmented and gives a gorgeous pop of colour on you cheeks. You can layer this blush up or down to intensify the colour or to give a more natural subtle hint of pink.

Xen Tan Deep Bronze Luxe - Dark 236ml £28.99 approx*
I have only used this a couple of times but think the quality of this product is amazing! The colour goes on evenly and it smells like vanilla which I think is gorgeous and makes a change from the typical biscuity smell of other self tanners. I will be doing a full product review on this soon so I won't blab on too much about how I love it here!

Sinful Colors - Tapping Nails 15ml £2.99
This is such a gorgeous summery orange colour it looks lovely against my skin tone and I like that it has tiny gold flecks in it, it really adds depth to your nails!

Eylure False Lashes £5.35
This brand of false eyelashes are my favourite! They have such a variety of different lashes from natural look to dramatic evening lashes! I use these lashes over and over to, they last quite a while before you have to buy new ones. I always keep a few boxes handy though just in case!

Lee Stafford Hair Growth Treatment 200ml £7.99
I have been using this hair treatment twice and week and I have to say it is doing wonders for my hair! It makes it feel silky soft and smooth! I will be doing a full review on this as lots of you have asked for one so I will get that up asap!

PanOxyl 5% Cream £3.00 approx
As you probably know by now I suffer from terrible skin! I bought this cream around March time but stopped using it after a few weeks because I got impatient waiting for it to work! I have recently started using it again over the past few months and have seen such a huge improvement in my skin!

Thanks for reading!
