Hair Care Remedies...

Hi guys! So the weather has been amazing over the last few days and people have definitely been making the most of it! I love Spring, it is my favourite time of year. The evenings are getting lighter, blossom is covering the trees and what with all the bank holidays coming up life is pretty good.

As the sun has got it's hat on I started to think about the summer holidays and my trip to Ibiza! The sun can really take it's tole on my hair and as I have mentioned before I am trying to grow it so keeping it in good condition is vital, especially as the heat and salty sea water can really dry it out! So I thought I would tell you about my favourite hair care products.

I really like Andrew Barton's S.O.S. Help Me! Twice A Week Conditioner. It contains Shea butter & Frankincense so smells divine, doesn't weigh the hair down and boosts volume and shine. Plus it will nourish the most damaged of locks making them smooth and silky, perfect if you tend to colour your hair or use heated appliances.

I have to admit I never used to bother with heat protective spray and I straighten my hair most days, unforgivable I know! But I started to feel sorry for my hair and knew that a heat protective spray would help prevent further damage. Now I use Andrew Barton's The Straight Answer! Hot Iron Protection Spray. You can use it on either wet or dry hair, which is great if you also use straighteners everyday and adds a bit of shine. I will be bringing both of these products in my suitcase for my holidays.

Check out the rest of Andrew Barton's hair care products http://www.andrewbarton.tv Whether you are blonde, brunette, have frizzy hair or want to boost volume there is something to suit everyone and all products are exclusive to ASDA. Now who doesn't want Shiny Happy Hair?

Love Rite Set by NARS...

So I was having a look round the make-up counters in House Of Fraser yesterday admiring all the lovely new colours for Spring. As I was eyeing up NARS new collection for 2012 I noticed a lovely gift set that contains a collection of pinks and peaches to create a fresh, bright look for Spring!

Products include two lip glosses, Turkish Delight - a pink sorbet colour and Greek Holiday - a sparkling, pink sand colour. It also contains a cute mini blusher duo of NARS most popular colours, Desire & Amour. A lovely delicate pink shade and a peachy/pink which would look great on darker skin. Last but not least is the Orgasm Illuminator (ooh naughty!) that adds a lovely golden shimmer to the skin, great to highlight cheeks and brow bones. The make-up artist on the counter was loving this product and said it has been a massive seller!

The set retails at £39.00 but has a value of £53.00 so you may think it sounds expensive but you are saving a lot. I am hoping to get this as a little treat for my summer holiday to Ibiza!

Thanks for reading guys.

Real Techniques Core Collection...

Hi everyone, hope you have all been enjoying this wonderful weather! So a few weeks ago I blogged about a set of eye brushes from the Real Techniques range and was so impressed with them I wanted to buy a set for the face, the Core Collection.

So the first brush on the left is the foundation brush. Use this with a liquid foundation to build a smooth, custom coverage. Then we have the contour brush, this can be used to delicately apply bronzer to define cheekbones or with a highlighter to create a sheer, soft-focus finish. The smaller brush in the middle is the detailer brush. This is perfect to conceal problem areas such as spots or to cover dark circles under the eyes. Alternately it can also be used as a lip liner brush to create shape and definition. Finally we have the buffing brush, this is ideal if you want a full coverage application of liquid, powder or mineral foundation. And just like the Starter Set, it all comes with a handy case to help keep your brushes organized or take them on the go.

The Core Collection set retails at £21.99 from Boots. If you are thinking of buying anything from the
Real Techniques range, Boots are offering 3 for 2 across a range of makeup and accessories so grab yourself a great set now!

Tangle Teezer...

Hi everyone, happy Friday! So today I thought I would blog about my favourite hair brush, an essential tool in every girl's life! Unfortunately my hair gets extremely tangled, especially when wet and dragging any old hair brush through my tresses started to take it's tole.

I have been growing my hair for a while now so when it's time for a hair cut I only ask for a trim, even though I can see the hairdresser staring at all my split ends and recommending I get at least an inch off. Not what you want to hear when it's nearly at your ideal length! So she recommended that I try a new hair brush to prevent hair breakage, the Tangle Teezer.

First of all it doesn't look like any normal hair brush, there is no handle but fit's perfectly in the hand. The brush and the bristles are made of plastic but it still manages to glide smoothly through the hair even when wet and de-tangling without dragging or pulling your locks, preventing those dreaded split ends. It also makes the hair look super glossy.

This is a product I adore and I have really noticed a difference in my hair. It takes a fraction of the time to brush through and it has kept my hair in great condition. It's also a perfect size to put in your handbag so you can brush on the go!

I bought my Tangle Teezer from Boots for £10.99 and the colour is Bubblegum Pink!

Have a great weekend and Happy St.Patrick's day! Love Becca...X
