Random :)

This is a bit of a random post but ahh well :) It was my birthday on Tuesday wahoo. So on Friday I popped out to get a few last minute bits for my celebratory weekend. I decided that I wanted to get my nails done, since growing my nails I've stopped putting the acrylic ones on and just stick to painting them :) So I popped into my local nail bar and discovered that they paint and shape nails for only £5!

My dress for the weekend was a stone grey colour and decided that I should get a really bright colour. Therefore choosing China Glazes' bright orange!

I adore the colour and will definatley be going back to get them to repaint them :) So many people commented on how lovely and eye catching the colour was!

After getting my nails done, I popped into my favourite shop Superdrug. I've read loads of reviews about GOSH lipsticks and decided it was time to finally purchase one especially at the fantastic prices!!

This colour is gorgeous and lasted all night! It's easy to apply and I felt so mosturized after application. I'll upload a picture of the colour on my lips later on. I really recommend GOSH products there fabolously priced and go a long way!

RRP: £6.00

Anyone else tried any GOSH products? What do you think?

My Top 6 Hair Care Products

I wanted to share with you my favourite hair products with you. These products are would never dream of washing/styling my hair without!

REMEMBER - change your shampoo + conditoner every 2/3 weeks as your hair starts to get used to the product.

Although I do change my shampoo every 2 weeks, my favourite has to be LOreal Paris Elvive Full Restore 5 Shampoo&Conditoner. Not just because Cheryl Cole is the face of it, because it tackles weak, limp, lifeless hair and it smells incredible! It leaves my hair feeling so soft and silky.


Heat can be one of the main causes for split ends. Therefore it's so important to protect protect protect! I'm always trying out different heat protectors as im forever straightening my hair. I definatley think this is the best. It smells lovely and a few sprays goes a long way. I'm also really hesitant to put heat protector on my hair when its dry as some protectors make your hair look greasy, but I found with Aussie that due to the lightness of the spray it doesnt leave your hair looking greasy at all!



I WORSHIP this product! This product has literally done miracles on my hair! My hair was in such awful conditon due to bleaching and heat but this mask restore my hair. I have extremley sensitive skin and this particular mask actually makes me itch but I love it that much that I'm prepared to put up with the itching! I won't wash my hair without it and recommend it to everyone!



I promise I'm not sponsored by Aussie I just love their products! This particular product is a leave in conditioner. They say "It's a leave-in little miracle that conditions and nourishes hair so it's tangle free and protected from everyday wear and tear" plus it smells gorgeous!

I've been using this product since the end of last year, I'd never actually heard of this brand before. It was my Mum that bought this for me so not too sure where you can buy it from but I'll post it on here once I know. This product, again, as done miracles. It makes your hair extremley shiny and is extremley good if you have coloured hair as it's rebuilding the strength that you lost from the damaged done by the colour/bleach.



Finally, if you haven't realised yet, I colour my hair blonde. As blonde is so hard to maintain its vital that you use some sort of product to protect your colour from fading and becoming dull. Therefore I used Elvive Colour Protect. This spray is weightless and again smells great (I love great smelling hair products). I simply give the top of my hair a few sprays before blowing drying my hair.

What do you guys think? Do any of you use any of these products? Or do you have any better ones?

Love

All Hail Barry M Nail Varnish! ♥

It wasn't until I was aimless walking around boots till I spotted Barry M's Nailvarnish. I've used some of their eye shawdows and glitter before yet never there nailvarnish. However after taking a proper look I was stunned to discover the amount of colours they have!

To begin with I bought bright orange and a lilac pinky colour. Later that week I went back and bought baby blue and green! (never seen green nailvarnish before!)



Barry M's range is perfect for the summer, and in the last few days I've changed the colour of my nails near 5 times!

I simply cannot praise this nailvarnish enough! Below is a picture of my lilac Barry M nail varnish that I applied on the 23rd of May and look how well its stayed on! no chips! (Please excuse my feet, they are very dry and hard due to gymnastics!)

Barry M are doing 2 of £5 - Girls get yourselfs down there!
