A couple of weeks ago I headed to Trevor Sorbie in the Lanes. They had invited people along to learn about the new trends in colour and style and to reveal two new offers to celebrate 10 years of the Salon and fifty years of Trevor hair dressing! (He’s 65, I asked!) We learnt that this summer red tones will be big, so not just an A/W trend. We were shown balayage, which looks fantastic. …
Since turning 30 in January I’ve decided to take better care of my skin and actually stick to a skin care routine for longer than 3 days. I’d previously been suffering from dry nose and forehead and had a few breakouts on my chin, so decided to start a new regime that I will actually stick to! Cleanse & Tone: I take my makeup off with a makeup wipe (whatever was on 3 for 2…
Last weekend was my birthday, and I packed more tea, cake, ice cream and food into a few days than I thought was possible. I ate lunch out for my birthday itself (post here) and then in the evening we watched The wolf of wall street with a tub of Ben and Jerrys core ice cream each. I liked the film, it was long but I didn’t feel bored at any point, impressively! On…
A couple of weeks ago I was sent a lovely bottle of The Body Shop ‘Vitamin E Overnight serum-in-oil’ to trial before it got released in shops. It comes in a pink bottle with a pipette, and you get 28ml for £15. This new overnight oil has the highest wheat germ oil content of all the products in the Vitamin E range, so is perfect for nourishing your skin overnight. I’ve been using it…
I bought a tub of BIG Sea salt shampoo at the Lush blogger lock in that I went to in November (you can read about that here, it was a lot of fun!) after lots of umming and ahhing and ‘but how does it WORK?’s from me. I tell you, sticking your fingers into this tub is a sheer delight (in a non filthy way) as it’s crunchy and smooth all at the same time,…
Today I have another wonderful product from Green People to tell you about. This one would make a perfect Christmas gift for any new babies or if you know any pregnant ladies perhaps pick it up for a baby shower gift whilst it has an amazing £8.99 off! It’s so important to new mums to use natural products with no nasties (parabens, CLCs etc) on their babies skin, so the Green People products are…
Last week I spent a bloody lovely evening at Brighton’s Lush Store on East Street. Lyndsay had sorted out a Bloggers ‘Lock In’ so that we could browse in peace and learn a lot more about the products and ethos behind the company. We got to make our own ‘The Comforter’ bubble bar which has always been one of my faves, and it was SO MUCH EASIER than I expected it to be! We got…
Excitingly the lovely organic beauty company Green People are offering one of their products at a reduced rate each day for 12 days of Christmas! Todays offer is their Volumising Mascara, which I was sent to review for you! The brush has a whole load of little bristles which help to really grab each eyelash, even the lower lashes, and the formula has microspheres in it which act as tiny sponges to help volumise. The…
