My hair care routine!


Hello sweeties!

Thought you might like to see what hair products I use and how I rate them, keep reading if your interested!

Herbal essences- Beautiful ends;
Split end protection cream




I bought this product several months back and have been using it religiously ever since. And I still have about half left!!



"I'm your secret weapon against split ends and your bodyguard against breakage. Oh, and I'm strong on silkiness too..."


 This product smells very clean and like raspberries. It has a consistency that feels nice on the hair and absorbs relatively quickly.
Since i started using it, my hair has been hydrated smooth and shiny.

However,
Although I really like this product, I wouldn't say it stops my split ends.  I have noticed just as many split ends with the product as opposed to without. But that might just be me. Because if something isn't there how can you tell if something is preventing it?  Though it DOES stop my hair breaking off.

I give this product a 4/5, because it's really hydrating and prevents my hair from breaking but not splitting. I use this product after Towel drying my hair.

Sunsilk weightless volumising cream

I apply this at the same time I apply the split end protection cream. I apply That to my tips and this to my roots and sides.

This product helps my hair have a bit more volume up top also this product is great for making my curly baby hair co-exist peacefully with the rest of my my straighter locks. Another bonus is that it wont make hair greasy. To get maximum benefit from this Blow dry hair upside down.

I picked my bottle up in Poundland ;) keep an eye out!

I give this product a 4/5

 If I am Blow drying...

got2b guardian angel

This spray takes centerplace among my lotions and potions. I love the design of the bottle and it smells gorgeous. I use about 3 sprays from 30cm to cover all my hair. You can FEEL your hair is protected- a true Guardian angel. I picked this up for half price in a drugstore.

5/5







For Layered Locks...


At the moment I am growing my hair out along with my shorter layers so I can experiment more with my hair.

Mess-head Styling gel spray

-Moderate hold-  good for a tousled bedhead look
I spray into my hand then scrunch, or hold up sections and spray roots.
  TONI&GUY Salt Spray

-Flexible hold - good for a summer waves, beachy look.

I mist over hair.
 





 Adee Phelan Diamond Hair Clay

- Stronger hold - Good for definition
I also use to force my baby-hairs into submission

Gym!!

Hello Sweeties!

Today I spent the day at the gym with my DofE Group.

We'd booked our induction at the gym on Friday, and today was the big day!

I'd planned to leave my house at 10.40 to be there for 11.15 but my friend who was giving me a lift was running late =.= Then when we were halfway there my dad called to say I'd forgotten my enrollment form! *stupid girl *  so we eventually got there ten minutes later than planned.

The staff were all really nice. We were allowed to use most of the equipment at the gym, but some things like weights and resistance we couldn't because of our age.

After he'd showed us how all the equipment worked it was 12, we then stayed till 1 had a snack break before going back again ^.^ 

The boys left at 2 (wimps!) and Georgia left shortly after. Jess and I stayed till 3 *big grin*

I would never had thought I'd have so much FUN at the gym. Afterwards I was buzzing, completely stress free and happy :) Anyone else going to the gym this year?

Whats in my Gym bag?

My membership card!


 
1) Water bottle - I probably refilled this at LEAST 5 times today!
2) Fragranced Anti-perspirant- Smells reaalll nice, I use some before and after even though I don't sweat that much
3) Lynx Body-spray
4) Anti-bacterial hand gel
5) Blotting Sheets

Shopping and Sleepovers

Hello Sweeties!

    and Hello 2013!

Wondering how I spent the first few days of the new year?



K-ON! Volume 1


  XD Just Kidding!!!

I've been busy busy busy... ish. 

Yesterday I spent pretty much the whole day in Canterbury, walking from shop to shop. And shop to shop. and shop to shop to shop to... bus stop. 

First off, I bought was a Garnier Skin Naturals Pure Self-Heating Sauna mask. It was £1.09 from Super-drug and came with 2 sachets, that could each last two applications compared to others I've tried.

This was the second self heating mask I've used. The first I tried was a citrusy and Gingery one which was quite hot but not so as to be uncomfortable. The Garnier one was only hot when rubbing and felt quite sticky. After I washed it off my face felt really smooth and non-greasy so I would defiantly recommend.

My Aunt is getting married in March so buying a dress was another thing I had to do. I had previously ordered one online but it was to glitzy for me, and far too showy for a wedding guest. I really like the dresses in BHS but some of them don't have zips so its hard to get in and out of- here are the dresses for comparison. Whereas the first is more of a one time only dress, the Monochrome one can be accessorized according to the occasion.

This is the dress I took back, very pretty hot pink- but more suited for a prom.
This dress can be worn with or without  the straps and I really like the puffball skirt ^.^

Later yesterday evening I had Jess round for a sleepover. It was nice to unwind before going back to school on Monday. I did her nails and we watched Confessions of a Shopaholic and ate Galaxy chocolate.This morning we watched Big Bang Theory over breakfast and took my dog out on a walk.

 Happy Birthday for tomorrow Mum!


Much Love,
Najika
