November Wishlist .. Hello credit card bill

Hi Girlies ,
 
It's so close to pay day and there are so many things on my wish list already! I haven't even started my Christmas shopping yet either - tut tut ..
 


 
Laura Mercier Silk Creme Foundation
I've heard so many great reviews on this stuff but i love my YSL touch eclat foundation so much and i have lots left so i just cant justify buying this yet. However, i could easily be persuaded so leave your comments below!
 
Bobbi Brown Creamy Corrector
I got matched up to porcelain when shopping a few weeks ago and when i went to buy it they didn't have that colour, bloody typical ay! Next time I'm anywhere close to a department store this baby is mine!
 
YSL Poudre Compact Radiance Powder
I'm running low on my MAC Mineralise skin finish powder and so I'm on the hunt for a new powder to try. I absolutely love the sound of this but i cannot find any reviews on it anywhere! Bad sign?
 
Macadamia Deep Repair Mask
I have the macadamia hair oil and i absolutely love it, this is such an expensive conditioner but i can imagine its just as amazing as the hair oil.
 
Muji Stoage
I think everyone is jumping on the Muji bandwagon but i just think it looks so tidy, neat & pretty.
 
Roberto Cavalli
This is number one on my Christmas list, it is the most loveliest smell i have ever smelt. It's just gorgeous.
 
Tangle Teezer
I need this in my life! My hair has been unbelievably tangled recently and i have to rake through it with my hairbrush - not good!
 
Please let me know your advice if you have any!?

Amazing Hair Mask | Wella Power Mask Review


 Hi Girls ,
 
If you have read any of my hair post's before you will know i love a hair product, this is a new one i picked up a few weeks back and had to write a review on it.
 
I have thick, coarse , heat damaged hair & this hair mask is just gorgeous. It leaves my hair so soft and manageable and hides them naughty split ends nicely. It doesnt take longer to dry my hair after either like it does with some conditioners i've tried.
 


 
It has a very wierd texture to it, it's not sticky but sort of marshmellow-y - it's really hard to explain! I'm hopeing the photo above shows what i mean. It spreads nice and easily and a little goes a long way (although i do smother my ends in this like its going out of date!)
 
I usually do this on the weekend when i have more time - I slap it on and wrap my head in a bag/clingfilm (not over my face obviously lol) and then wrap a towell around it to keep the heat in. I leave this on for around half hour if i have the time and the results are honestly amazing, this is definately my new favourite hair mask.
 
It is quite expensive but i found this in TK Maxx for £7 which isn't too bad really if you use it as a weekly treat, you can also get it on ebay sometimes so keep your eyes peeled.
 
I really really recommend this, it has done wonders for my hair and i will be most definately repurchasing when it runs out -it really makes such a difference to my barnet!

What's your favourite hair mask?

This Weeks Favourites ♥

Hi Girls 

So these things are new my additions that i love rather than mentioning the same things all the time!
 

 
♥ Sleek Contouring Kit - I love using the highlighter side of this when the days are so dull, it adds a bit of a glow to your face which i love (review & swatches here)
 
♥ Sleek Eyebrow Kit - I haven't wrote a full review on this yet but i really love this palette, i got this in 'dark' as i didn't want it to be too orange and i think this is just right. With this you can blend it in so although it looks nearly black in the pan you can get a nice natural light brown finish on your eyebrows.

♥ Bobbi Brown Concealer Kit - My favourite concealer at the moment for those bloody eye bags! (review here)

 
♥Bioderma Micellaire Water 
♥ Body Shop Face Brush
 
Both of these are newish purchases and i love love love both of them, I don't use them together but i switch it up. I use the face brush with my Yes to Cucumbers face wash (review here) if i have worn more makeup on that day. I have very sensitive skin and the Micellaire  water doesn't irritate me at all which I'm so pleased about! i use this more on my lazy days but it takes all my make up off easily. I will definitely be buying the full size of this.
I really like the body shop face brush, it was £4 and it was a bit of an impulse buy. I find that my skin doesnt like to be exfoliated it gets sore and red but this is ok!
I dont use it on my really sensitive bits (sounds rude!) but i use it on any places i would usually get a blemish pop up (forehead/chin) & i think its doing a good job. I'll be honest - it's a little scratchy but i'm hoping it will soften up soon.



♥ Tresemme' Liquid Gold - I love using this at the moment, i use it a pre-shampoo and i also add a bit to my ends before blow drying (full review here)

♥ L'occitane Hand Cream -  Love the smell of this, it stops my hands cracking in the dry weather. It's probably not much better than any other hand cream but I'm just so in love with the smell.

♥ Body Shop Cocoa Butter Lip Stick - I lovvvve this, i have really dry sensitive lips that react to most things but this has kept them in shape. I cant even use carmex as it burns a bit and vasaline doesn't do much good but this is honestly amazing and the best thing i have come across (full review here)


♥ MUA Heaven & Earth Palette - I have been using this a lot lately, i think the colours are very autumnal! (full review & swatches here)

♥ Rimmel Eyeliner in 'Forest Green' - I have green eyes and i think this makes them stand out a bit more, also it hides any redness on the waterline -  double wammy! :)

 
Whats your faavourite product this week ?

August Empties .. x

♥ My August Empties ♥ .. ok ok they are all hair products!

I have very coarse thick wavey hair so i use quite a few different conditions to try to keep it manageable. These are my empties that i have used up this month ..

 

♥ Loreal Hair Expertise EverSleek Absolute Smooth Intense Mask 
(what a mouthful ay!)
£5.99
 


What Loreal Say:
L'Oreal Paris Hair Expertise is non-sulphate cleansing system. Indulgent care to help protect over-processed, frizzy hair.

This smells lovely and it is very thick and has a buttery consistency, I leave this on for 5 minutes and I think it definitely makes my hair feel softer and less coarse. I will be buying this again as this is probably my favourite out of my empties! :)

♥ John Frieda Full Repair Deep Conditioner 
On offer: 2 for £7.49 in boots



What John Frieda Says:
Intense repairing formula, with lightweight Incha Inchi Oil, penetrates deep and repairs the look and feel of overstyled hair , reducing the risk of breakage. Damaged hair becomes silky and full. Safe for colour-treated and chemically-treated hair.

This is quite a thin runny consistency but it is a brilliant detangler for my hair. As this is quite runny I sometimes apply this to my ends before bed and when I rinse it off in the morning there does seem to be an improvement, my split ends are definitely less visible.

♥ John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Moisturising Conditioner 
£5.99 but it on offer a lot.



What John Frieda Say's:
Moisturising formula with crushed pearls and sweet almond oil softens as it brings out rich, multi-dimensional brunette tones and adds shine.

This makes my hair soooo shiny! I love it. I don't think it does much moisturising for my hair to be honest but i use a different conditioner before hand and finish off with this and my hair is so shiny afterwards. I only leave it on for 30 seconds or so (Miss Impatient). If I'm in a rush this is the conditioner I would choose.
 
♥ Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Reconstructor



This smells gorrrrgeous, I think that's one of the main reasons I use this to be honest. It does make my hair feel nice on the day of the wash but the next day it seems to be a bit dry again. But I'll let it off as I will be buying it again and it does smell amazing!

♥ John Frieda Frizz-Ease Overnight Repair Formula 
£5.99
 

 
 
What John Frieda Say's:Fr
Visibly repairs breakage and split ends while deeply nourishing to replenish essential moisture, making hair softer and healthier-looking.
Lightweight formula absorbs quickly into hair without leaving any residue on your pillow.
I apply this to my ends before bed and wash this out in the morning, I think it does help to make my hair feel softer but it does get used up really quickly which makes it quite expensive for the amount of uses you get. I do recommend this as a treat though :)
