Trevor Sorbie Leave-in Conditioner

I forever stick to my trusted, holy grail hair care products e.g. Aussie and Herbal Essences however recently my hair has been feeling really drab and dry. I decided to take a trip to Boots and look at their more higher end products and found this leave-in conditioner by Trevor Sorbie.

I had never used a leave-in conditioner before and didn't have high hopes however I was pleasantly surprised. This has made my hair so soft and shiny, I honestly cannot fault it. The smell is absolutely gorgeous and the spray nozzle means it is minimum fuss. If you spray it in your hair after you take it out of the towel it makes your hair 10x easier to brush through, which saves hours of trying to brush your hair as delicately as you can. It also is a saviour for fine, fly-away hair like mine that is a static mess when you blow dry it.

The travel version that I have here is £2 in Boots, which is so good if you are not sure and just want to give it a try. The full-size bottle is also in Boots for £5 which I will be purchasing as soon as this runs out. 

If you are feeling lost on what new hair care products to splurge on then I 100% suggest you give this a go, especially is you have colour or heat damaged hair.

No7 Hot Cloth Cleanser Review

 

I recieved this as a gift from my friends for my birthday, probably because i wouldn't shut up about how much I wanted the Liz Earle Hot Cloth cleanser which I had heard nothing but positive reviews for.

This cleanser is perfect! the formula is lovely and creamy and feels lovely on the skin. It leaves your skin feeling lovely and subtle and feeling clean without feeling stripped of all its moisture. At first I was scared because I thought it was giving me spots however I think it was drawing all the horrible impurities out of my skin and this is what caused me to break out. The spots have all gone now and i've had no other problems, in fact its left me positively spot free! You also get so much for your money, the bottle is massive and I can tell it is going to last me and it also has a lovely convinient pump which gives you the perfect amount to wash your face with.

 

In the box, along with the cleanser, you get the muslin cloth which is lovely and gentle on the skin. It definitely is exfoliating but you dont fell like your skin has been attacked after you use it as I thought would be the case because I have sensitive skin.

Nails Of The Day #2

On my nails i'm wearing Topshop's Tidal, this is a lovely muted bluey/grey and I think its gorgeous and I dont think i've seen a colour like it. This was my first Topshop nail polish along with Rising Star and I love the formula of these topshop nail varnishes, they go on so easily and with minimal fuss and having to clean up your nails afterwards. They dry so quickly and the colour doesn't need much building as they colour is opaque after one/two coats. I will definitely be purchasing more topshop nail varnishes.

The glitter i'm using is Ibiza Mix by Models Own, I think this really adds a nice touch to Tidal, making it more interesting. Ibiza Mix is a lovely pink, blue and gold glitter which is part of the Hed Kandi collection. I think its definitely a must have nail varnish to have in your nail varnish collection as it goes with every colour.

Weekly Wishlist #1

one - two - three - four

1. Zara City Office Bag

I fell in love with this bag at first sight! It's exactly like the Prada bag that Tanya Burr has, and I would rather pay £50 than £500. It's very practical and will be good for college as you can fit A4 books and a laptop in there. As it's from Zara I think it will be very sturdy and last a long time!

2. Topshop shirt

This is so girly and summery, I don't usually wear shirts so hopefully this will add a new dimension to my wardrobe. I love the detailing on the pockets and for £38 I think it's worth it.

3. Topshop peep toe shoes

I love these shoes, just like the shirt they are so summery. I only really wear vans but I can see these being more practical and lovely in summer. They are a lovely tan colour and will go well with any outfit!

4. American Apparel nail varnish

I love the look of these nail varnish and have heard nothing but positive reviews! I love trying out new nail varnishes and I love all the colours, especially the glitters. I'm not sure I can justify spending £9, but I'll probably cave!

Birthday Haul and Pictures

Me and Maddie x

So it was my birthday yesterday and despite a few obstacles in the day it was amazing and I finally turned 16! My friends were amazing and made it the best day ever, they went to such a big effort to make my day they best birthday ever and I love them all to bits. We went to London shopping and then went to a dessert restaurant called Creams and then had a big sleepover. I wanted to show you what they got me and what I bought in London.

 This is the lovely card my friends made me and it had the cutest message in it that choked me up a bit. 

I had to get the picture of this jumper that my friends bought me off the internet because I couldn't photograph it well, this jumper is so lovely and feels just the right thickness for this weather. My friends know me so well as I kept picking this up everytime I went into topshop, and I had also looked at it with  Maddie a few times when we had gone into town to go to Boots.

 

 My friends also bought me this lovely peplum top from H and M which is perfect for the more summery days and feels lovely and soft.

 

Feeling Blue is a gorgeous true blue colour which is perfect for my skin tone and my friends know that I am definitely a blue girl. Tidal is a off grey/blue, I have never seen a colour like it before so when I saw it in the Oxford Street topshop I knew I had to get it. After weeks and weeks of me borrowing Maddie's Freak Out by Models Own I was so so so happy to recieve this from my friends. Freak Out is a lovely blue/puple chunky glitter which goes perfectly over loads of other colours and is perfect for winter and summer wear. Rising star is the nicest glitter I have ever seen and I feel in love with it when Maddie bought it about a month ago so I also picked that up as well.

  

I also picked up MAC Lovelrn in London because it been something i've wanted for a while now, its a Lustre so it not very pigmented but it gives such a lovely soft finish.

I picked up this purse from topshop for £18, it looks really sturdy and simple and is just the right size I need for everything in my purse.

As my nail polish collection has grown my desk has been cluttered with nail polish which I can't, no matter how hard I try, keep neat so when I opened this up from my friends I nearly died as its been exactly what i've needed for so long.

This smells like heaven, it smells exactly like the Christmas Cookie candle and I can't wait to try it out, I can already tell its going to be amazing.

I got the stand from my friends and it is so perfect, it goes exactly with my room and it already has pride of place on my dressing table and looks gorgeous there! The two back bath bombs my friends also bought me and they smell so good and I cant wait to try them out, Maddie was sneaky and I thought she had bought them for herself! and the front two I picked up in the Lush in the Shephards Bush Westfields and they smell so nice.

My friends got me this as well and its the best thing ever ever ever, I've been told that its comarable to the Liz Earle cleanser. It has made my skin feel so soft and clean. Seriously the bestest thing i've ever been bought!

February Wishlist

I've been wanting a pair of nice heeled boot for a while. I spotted the Boohoo heeled chelsea boots the other day while internet shopping and I instantly fell in love with them. They look so comfortable and easy to walk in because of their chunky heel, cant wait to get my hands on a pair!

2)  Topshop Bleached Jeans

Beauty Favourites January

(sorry for the horrible picture quality)

 Hiya lovelies, sorry its slightly delayed but I wanted to do a january favourites because there has been so much i've loved in january that I wanted to share with you!

I got the Rimmel 'Wake Me Up' foundation about 2/3 weeks ago in the shade true ivory which is the second to lightest shade, which I think is poor for Rimmel as there isn't a very wide range of colours so I was lucky that I found the right shade for me. However this foundation is so lovely and isn't greasy light I was worried it would be. It gives a slightly dewier finish than a matte foundation but I wouldnt say it was particularly shiny.

The Kate Moss lipstick in 107 was something is was nervous about getting and was debating whether I liked but after experimenting with it I really love it. I definitely will consider getting another lipstick from the collection as I already have my eye on a few.

 This is definitely a holy grail product! its so cheap but so wonderfu, its so easy to apply. I can feel quite self concious about my dark circles but this completely stops that, I feel a lot more confident when I wear it.

Beths Blue by Models Own just had to be in my favourites this month because I have fallen in love with it. I'd love to say i have found a pink that I really love but I just much prefer blues! This colour is the perfect pastel blue. It goes on pretty much opaque after one coat and is a summer must have!

This body butter is to die for, it smells just like the Christmas Cookie Yankee Candle, if you like that then you'll love this. I  got this as part of a set from kiss me quick but im sure they sell it individually, i highly recommend it.

Thank you for reading. What were your January favourites?
