Aussie Hair, Take The Heat, leave in cream. ♥


Hi guys!
In the last five to six months I found Aussie Hair products. Yes, I know I should hang my head in shame! 
I am now a Aussie Hair fanatic and cant get enough of there goodies!

I thought I would do a review on this as it's disappearing from shops, I cant find it anywhere apart from the internet, and it's sister product the spray has taken this little beauts place.

I'm a platinum blonde that needs up-keeping every couple of months, and on top of that I blow dry and straighten my poor hair everyday.
 In-between cuts I try to keep my hair as in good condition as I can. I don't use masks or oils, just a good moisturising shampoo and conditioner, at the moment V05 Nourish Me Truly with this miracle in a tube everyday!

This cream is thick and rich with an amazing smell, which lasts all day on the hair.
 This cream has Australian Jojoba-seed oil, which helps fend off frizz, protect against damage and adds shine to where ever your hair's most parched.

I de-tangle my hair, go straight into blow drying, then rub this cream into my hair working from the ends to the roots. I leave it to soak in for a few minutes and then brush through my hair ready for straightening. 
I've trying putting this in my hair before blow drying but I feel like it doesn't quite keep its strength up for straightening as well.
This makes my hair smooth, silky and soft, and a mega plus when a product hides away split ends until they get really bad!

I absolutely love this cream and I have my fingers crossed it doesn't disappear forever!

Jelly Pong Pong, Fairy Lashes Mascara. ♥


Hi guys!

So I thought I would do a review about my latest favorite mascara!



I received this in my May Glossy Box and I got super excited when I seen the name 'Jelly pong pong'.Their website says...
This is not for the faint-hearted. Our first ever mascara is formulated to make eye lashes flutter & flap. Water-resistant, Fairy Lashes makes eyelashes thicker & curvier while allowing them to be spectacularly soft & light. A truly fabulous effect for the woman who wants to emphasize one deep, intense, seductive look. 
And it does exactly what it says! My lashes looked longer, thicker and curlier without making them hard and clumpy. The colour is an intense black and doesn't smudge. The box is lovely and pretty with the actual product packaging is a deep purple! Very girly! 
They say its waster resistant but it is very easy to get off. I use a sponge with some warm water, after a few wipes and its all off, no heavy rubbing needed. I've noticed it doesn't give me panda eyes like normal mascara when you take it off, this sticks together in clumps and just slides off.
You need to try it to see what I mean. Lol.The wand is a small plastic one with brizzles that coat every lash in this wonderful stuff!

Here's a picture to prove that this is an amazing product!


As you can see I like my lashes looking full, long and curly, and this does the job.
I will be purchasing this after I run out and will my mascara for a long time to come!

Thank you Jelly Pong Pong and you too Glossy Box for letting me try this!

Glossy Box, May 2013. 2nd Birthday! ♥

Hi guys,
Glossy Box time again! :D This month I watched my favorite YouTuber Voussontbeauetbelle, Becca, show us her box so I had a sneaky peek at what was to come!
So, this month was Glossy Boxes 2nd Birthday, woop! 
We got a very pretty print on the tissue paper instead of the usual Glossy Box sign, a lovely neon pink ribbon and a orange ruffly bits instead of the usual black stuff that gets all over your fingers.  


JELLY PONG PONG, Fairy Lashes Mascara. I'm going to do a different blog post on this because I love it! :D

HEADLINE COLOURS, Poolside Party Nail polish in twisted silk. This limited edition polish boasts an ultra-high pigment level for rich, intense colour and gloss plus UV absorbers for staying power - less chipping, flaking and more importantly Headline Colours polishes are free of toxins.
 One can never have enough pink nail varnish! This colour is a lovely very pale pastel pink. You only need two coats as the first will fix the polish to the nail and the second will provide the opaque, glossy top coat. I really like this varnish, its quick to apply, lovely girly colour and it has lasted me a few days now. 
At £9 a pot I don't think I will be buying any. 

STONE BEAUTY, Body Lotion, scent Jasmine. This lotion not only soothes but leaves your skin silky soft and supple. With coconut oil and hydrating shea butter, a little goes a long way. Stone Beauty's products are hand made, are not tested on animals, and contain no preservatives, parabens or sulphates.
I'm not a body lotion fan but I did try this. For me this didn't have much of a scent, what I could smell it's not my cup of tea. I didn't notice a difference in how soft my skin was, so I was a bit disappointed. 

BEAUTIFUL MOVEMENTS COSMETICS, formerly known as BM Beauty, Prime and Create Mixing Medium
This new addition to former Pussycat Doll Kimberly Wyatt's range of beauty must-haves is a clear aloe vera based gel, which can be turned into a cream foundation, blush and eye shadow that 
work for all skin types. I've been using this as a primer, not very inventive I know, and I love it! My MAC foundation glides on effortlessly and flawless with this as a base. I might try this mixed in with my foundation to see what happens. Not much else to say on this. 


LA ROCHE-POSAY, Anthelios XL SPF 50+ Dry Touch Gel-Cream. Recommended by dermatologists the world over Anthelios is the ultimate go-to sun protection range for sensitive skin. Due to it ultra-high UVA/UVB protection, the Anthelios range helps to combat visible signs of skin ageing, What's more, it's innovative gel-cream formulations is immediately absorbed, leaving a dry touch finish - no shine, no white marks.
I'm not bothered about sun protection so I haven't tried this.


We all also received a pack of little pouch of Glossy Box nail files for an extra present. 
An other OK box, with the Mascara and nail varnish being the best products.
Lets see what next month brings!
