Hair Care Routine

I'm not that passionate about hair related products. Some decent hair care and I'm happy. Needless to say, my hair routine is not that exciting, it's extremely simple.

 Saturday afternoon is my main hair care day. After my morning walk, I apply a mix of coconut and olive oil to my hair. I just leave it in all day, and reapply a little if needed.
I wash out the oil in the shower and apply the shampoo from the Hair Ritual duo that I purchased from TV Shopping Network, TVSN. This not only rids my hair of any oil residue, but prepares my hair for the next step. 
Matrix So Silver toning shampoo. I love this product's ability to maintain my blonde hair, ridding it of any brassiness. I leave it in my hair for 5 minutes before rinsing. 

Once the purple toner is washed out, I coat my hair with the conditioner. 
Thanks to Hailey's giveaway that I was lucky enough to win, I distribute the conditioner evenly through my hair, using the Tangle Teezer Aqua Brush. A brush designed to not damage the hair when brushing whilst wet.  

 I then put on a shower cap and leave the conditioner to do its work whilst I hop out from under the shower to epilate my legs and underarms. I cleanse my face. Get back in the shower and by the time I am finished everything that I want done before rinsing the conditioner, usually 15 or so minutes has lapsed.
Once my hair is towel dried, I apply Hair Ritual hair oil that contains the peptide Vecorexin. Only 2 drops is needed for my hair.

 OMG, once dry my hair is soft, shiny and manageable, not that short hair is really hard to comb through.
Although I don't wash my hair during the week, Tuesdays and Thursdays I rinse with water, then use whatever conditioning spray I have, which at the moment is Matrix Instacure. 

 So, that's my hair care routine, reviews of products mentioned will appear in future review posts.

BH Cosmetics Carli Bybel Deluxe Palette and Giveaway

Image
When BH Cosmetics released the original Carli Bybel palette I was tossing up whether I was going to purchase it or not. Sure, it was pretty with lovely neutral shades, but I was trying to cut down my eye shadow palette buying to only palettes that I really, really had to have and I wasn't convinced that was the case. When the Carli Bybel Deluxe version was released containing 15 shadows and 6 highlighters as opposed to the original which had 10 eye shadows and 3 highlighters, I had to have it. I went as far as pre-ordering the palette before it was even released. The sneak peek swatches had won me over! Taken from BH Cosmetics - "This palette features 11 original shades plus 10 chic new shadows and highlighters in buttery blendable formulas with staying power." The palette is a large square with magnet closure and complete with a cardboard sleeve. The palette is so pretty, I love the rose gold writing on the quilted pintuck background design. Opening the palet...

BYS Berries Palette

Image
I have bought from the brand BYS in the past, but I can't say I've actually sought out anything from them. Well, that was until I saw swatches popping up on my Instagram feed of the Berries palette.  It's a 12 pan palette and has a similar vibe going on to the much loved and raved about ABH Modern Renaissance palette. Of course, I do not own the pricier ABH palette, but I just had to have the Berries palette. Taken from BYS - "BYS Berries Eye Shadow Palette features an array of 12 expertly chosen, highly pigmented matte and metallic eye shadows. The 12 piece palette comes housed in a modern, embossed tin. featuring a mirror and 2 dual end applicators." The tin packaging of this palette is really cute, it reminds me of the Naked 2 and 3 palettes. It is a little bulky, but I like it. Let's take a peek inside Oh yes, I'm all about those warm orange and plum tones. There are 3 shimmery shades and the rest are matte. Here's the sw...

It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector

Image
I was once again sucked into buying some bargain products from Ozsale . Part of my order was 4 serums from the brand It's Skin. Being a Korean brand I really wanted to try some products. I couldn't find a lot of information about It's Skin online, but the Power 10 Formula range sounded pretty good. I really wanted to try them all at once, but to get an idea of how each serum performed I restrained myself by using one serum at a time. The first one I tried was the VC Effector. The serum is no longer available on Ozsale, but I found it for sale on Beauty Bay - "A clarity improving skin serum designed for all skin types. Enriched with a blend of naturally derived, active ingredients, the It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector worfs effectively to reduce the appearance of discolouration and dark spots. With a lightweight serum texture its quickly absorbed into the skin offering brightening and lightening effects, whilst simultaneously suppressing melanin prod...
