PRETTY YOUNG THING

As i've been packing for my holiday this week I thought i'd share some of my holiday travel size essentials. I tend to overpack when I go on holiday so these little travel sizes are great! I get to overpack however I'm not using to much of my luggage allowance.

It's essential that you bring along your favourite bits and pieces on holiday. I love this Happy Buddha shower gel by Rituals and it comes in this cute travel size making it great. Baby lips come in a really handy size, i've packed about 3 or 4 of these as they will be nice to pop on throughout the day. I have to bring a mini Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish along as it's my favourite cleanser.

I'm also bringing along these little Mark Hill holiday hair shampoo and conditioner's to test out whilst i'm away.

I love travel sizes and I think they are a great idea, I hate bringing nearly empty tubes of product home so this way I should use up most of the product and won't be coming home with any drips and draps. The small sizes are also giving me a chance to try out a fair few products over the fortnight.

I've been using this cleanser for a few weeks and I think its really nice. I have been testing some other cleansers too so i've been using this one along side some others.

I've been using this cleanser as i've been trying to make my skin look brighter and more awake as I feel it looks rather dull. This cleanser aims to brighten and even the skin tone.

'Enriched with VitaBrightKX features Kakadu plum, the worlds richest source of vitamin C, and Rhyolite, a natural mineral exfoliant to gently polish skin and help minimise dullness to restore a youthful glow'

This cleanser really does make the skin look brighter. The exfoliating beads are tiny so they are really gentle on your skin. The actual product is a shiny, smooth product that you apply a small amount using moist hands to massage over face, neck and rinse throughly. Its so gentle that you can use it daily.

I love that this cleanser aims to clean and exfoliate your skin as well as brighten and even your skin tone. Its full of natural ingredients and is dermatologist-tested so suitable for all skin types, even sensitive.

My skins been prone to breakouts recently so i've been using this as an alternative to my more harsher cleansers but this is still very effective even though its so gentle.

You can buy this on the Jurlique website for £20

I've been using the Bumble and bumble Surf Spray for a couple of weeks now and I'm in LOVE !!

I never thought i'd like this kind of product because i'm not a fan of texture or sticky sprays in my hair. My hair is quite greasy anyway so the thought of using more product just always put me off using any kinds or texture products on my hair.

The Bumble and bumble Surf spray is part of the surf range and it's designed to give your hair that beach hair look. The wavy, salty look!

Anyone can use this on their hair, it works great on fine hair to add body or you can use it to add lift to your roots. I use it in the ends of my hair to add abit of texture and to try and recreate a messy, beach texture to my hair.

I've been applying this product to dry hair because and here i've applied it to my hair after straightening it and think the ends of my hair look abit tousled and windswept. This is the effect I was going for because my hair is a bit crazy after blowdrying. I want to experiment applying this to my hair when it's curly and seeing what effects I get.

The product is quite wet! I expected it to be like a spritz but its not it's a spray so just beware when you are applying.

You apply to the hair and then stand in the wind or use a diffuser to create the style you want. I stood in the wind and used my hand in a claw type way to tousle my hair into the style I wanted.

I love this spray and will defiantly be taking this on holiday and will be using it after being in the pool and sea to create gorgeous beach hair.
