Review | TRESemme Keratin Smooth

Information Brand | TRESemme Expert Selection Product | 7 Day Smooth System Heat Activated Treatment Size | 120ml Price | £6.99 What it claims |  TRESemmé 7-Day Keratin Smooth Heat Activated Treatment is a first-to-market breakthrough in new generation hair technology. Using Heat Activated Polymers, this brand new formula is activated simply by using hair straighteners to provide long lasting, salon looking hair that stays beautifully smooth for seven days, and up to three washes.  To use this product you first start with towel dried hair. It says to use 8-10 pumps of product on medium length hair, in my opinion that is far too much! My hair is about boob length and I use a maximum of 3 pumps. You get a lot of product out in just one pump. So I'd say for short hair 1 pump, mid length 2 and long 3 to 3 1/2 pumps. I actually really like the scent its smells like a sweet. It works into the hair really easy and doesn't feel greasy. It says to blow dry hair and then straighten, alth

P.S Love...

I'm a lover of all things bargainy so last week when I picked up a lipstick from Primark to give a try, I kinda fell in love! So today I went back and picked up a few more bits. I picked up a two palettes 'day' and 'night' for £2.50, a lip gloss, two lip crayons, a lip gloss crayon and two lips stain pens for £1.50 each.  I wanted to do a quick swatch post because I kinda get excited when a buy new products and these are so cheap I wanted to share them! I really love that you get a mix of shimmer and matte in both palettes. The colours in the 'Night' palette are more opaque where as the 'Day' palette is a tad more on the sheer side. From Left to Right:  + Lip Gloss + Red Lip Stain + Pink Lip Stain  + Red Lip Crayon + Bright Pink Lip Crayon + Pale Pink Lip Crayon I'm really looking forward to giving these ago as I was so pleased with my PS Love lipstick. The gloss is really lovely and opaque and the stains look like they will leave good colour. Af

Review | Lush No Drought Dry Shampoo

Image
Hi Guys! Today I'm sharing with you my strongly mixed feelings on this Lush product. Information Brand | Lush Product | No Drought Dry Shampoo Size | 115g Price | £6.75 Would I re-purchase | Un-decided So what our are ingredients, Cornflour, Magnesium Carbonate, Talc, Perfume, Grapefruit Oil, Lime Oil, Citral, Geraniol, Limonene, Linalool. So I bought this when I was going through my brief obsession with Lush. I wanted to try it out and see how it compared to the Batiste dry shampoo which is in aerosol form. To use you can either puff it straight on to the roots/grease affected areas or pop some on your hands and work through. I prefer this technique better as I have more control where I'm putting it. Although I do sometimes use the puff-straight-to-scalp technique too. The powder is super light-weight and smells divine. Its so fresh and citrusy, and you can defiantly smell the grapefruit oil. Although I find that the scent does not translate into the hair, if that makes sense.
