REVIEW: FUDGE URBAN ICED RASPBERRY AND VANILLA HAIRSPRAY


I've been using Fudge Urban hairspray for a couple of months now and thought i'd share my thoughts with you. I recently heard of Fudge Urban just before Christmas, a few bloggers were raving about their products so I thought i'd give them ago. I picked up this hairspray to try, I don't really use hairspray that much but I always have some for when I wear my hair up and when I curl my hair.
This hair spray smells amazing, like seriously its soo good. It has a decent hold but leaves the hair feeling soft. It stops frizz and fly away hairs aswell which is good. It retails at £4.99 but I picked it up on offer, they had 1/3 off fudge products and i've seen it on offer a few times so i'd keep an eye open incase its ever on offer again. I would recommend it, it's a product, good hold and smells gorgeous but leaves hair looking natural.

Avaliable at boots and superdrug.

ghd AIR SAPPHIRE HAIRDRYER

 ghd AIR SAPPHIRE HAIRDRYER - £99* - ghdhair.com










Ever since the GHD air hairdryer was released i've wanted it ! It was actually on my birthday wishlist for this year and my momma was buying it for me so when I was offered the opportunity to review the brand new limited edition sapphire hairdryer I jumped at the chance.

The ghd air sapphire hairdryer is part of the Limited edition ghd jewel collection, I love the hint of colour and think it looks amazing. The hairdryer is a decent size and feels very good quality. It's not too heavy and its very comfortable to hold. The cable is very long at 3m which is great for me as I only have one set of plugs in my room and have to stretch the wire across the room.

You have different settings for the temperature and speed meaning you can alter according to how you prefer to dry your hair. Theres also a cool shot button and it comes with two concentration nozzles.

I think this hairdryer dries my hair quicker and more effortlessly than my previous hairdryer. It also leaves my hair feeling more managable and less flyaway.

I do think that £99 is alot for a hairdryer but this is a really lovely hairdryer and i'm such a massive fan of ghd that I would spend £99 on this hairdryer.
 You can get £20 off by using the code GHD20 

REVIEW : Macadamia Natural Oil Flawless


 Flawless - www.macadamiahair.com - £25.75*




I was so excited to try this out! I found out about it at the #VintSetFest blogger meet in Birmingham. Macadamia Oil were there and had loads of fabulous full size products! I was kindly sent this to review so here's what I think.

First of all this product is a cleanser for you hair ! Yes that right a cleanser. When I heard about this product I have to say I was very intrigued. A cleanser for you face is the norm but for your hair.. I've never heard of one.

Flawless will cleanse, condition, refine and perfect your hair so after using this your hair is clean and conditioned.

You emulsify the product in your hands. You only need abit so 1 or 2 pumps depending on how much hair you have, I use two pumps. You apply the product to your hair like you would a mask so making sure you get it all over your hair and leave for 5 minutes and then rinse thoroughly.

What the product does is pulls the dirt out of your hair when you rinse it so you want to concentrate on areas where you use alot of hair products or the roots where you need to clean regularly.

I've been using this along side another shampoo and conditioner because I don't want to use it all up and my hair feels really clean after using this product. It smells amazing and leaves my hair so soft. All the Macadamia oil products have macadamia oil in so you know your hair is going to feel soft and conditioned.

I really love this product, I like how its a foam- like product, It's quite sticky but thats so it stays on the hair. Its in a can so you can't see how much product you have left which I don't really like however the can makes it easy to come out. The other flaw with Flawless is the price it's £25! Ouch thats alot of money! However its a great product and you get 250ml for the price. Macadamia oil don't do a smaller size but then if you compare it to other brands i've featured like the Bumble and bumble shampoo and conditioner they are £18-£20 each where as with this you only need the one can to clean and condition.

You can buy it online at www.macadamiahair.com 

Neal And Wolf GLOW Super Shine Spray

Buy here for £11.95* 

I got GLOW Super Shine Spray in my goody bag from the #BirminghamBloggerMeetup, I've been using it alot and really wanted to let you guys know about this amazing brand

The Neal and Wolf range is huge, they have shampoos, conditioners, styling products and finishing products that have all been trial and tested in salons and by consumers and professionals. 

The Super Shine Spray is a lovely light-weight product that adds shine. The unique formula helps smooth hair reducing static and frizz. I love using this product when I've curled my hair because it just adds that shine into the hair that the heat takes out when curling it with my enrapture curlers. I spray evenly over the hair and then using my finger I run my fingers through my hair just making sure the spray gets in the curls and then a last little spritz after that. Because the product is so light it doesn't feel tacky or sticky and it smells lovely too. 

I have to use hairspray with this product to keep my curls in but I alway use this product now when i'm curling my hair. I would like to try the Fix Spray which holds and shines because I think this would be the perfect product to keep my curls in and add shine. 

You can buy a 100ml size bottle for £11.95 which is expensive but i've been using this loads and its lasted me really well i'm not even 1/4 down the bottle yet! I can see this lasting a really long time because you really don't need to use a lot, it adds so much shine. I love this product :) and can't wait to try some more Neal and Wolf products 







The Essentials

Batiste dry shampoo// Wella Silvikrin// Nair Brazillian Spa Clay Collection*// Nivea Express Hydration//Arm and Hammer Enamel Care*// Femfresh soothing wash*// Vaseline cocoa radiant// Femfresh wipes*// Lush ultrabland// skin therapy wipes// The Body Shop foaming facial wash// Balance me wonder eye cream// Balance me face moisturiser// Nivea hand lotion//

I've decided to put together this post of essentials! I do use alot of products and I love trying out new ones! This is a post of products i've tried and  some that I use religiously! Its also some products that I really want to review or mention but I don't really want to do a full post about one product so this way i'm posting about loads of really good products but getting all the important information out.

Dry shampoo! - I LOVE THE STUFF! I've tried the new timotei one and its nothing compared to batiste. Blush is my favourite and I use the original one if superdrug don't have it! (btw its like always on offer in superdrug so check there if you wanna buy it ) I have blonde hair so the way it makes your hair abit white doesn't affect me but they do other ones for different hair colours and it brushes out ! I love how you can get away with washing your hair and how it just freshens your hair up. dry shampoo is a must have!

Hairspray - I don't use alot of hairspray but when I do its Wella Silvikrin in firm hold or ultra hold! It doesn't have a nasty hairspray smell and it holds your hair up; does what it says on the tin ;)

Hair Removal- The Nair products are all new to me, I wanted to review the wax strips and was really excited to try them but then i wimped out and decided to try the shower power foam instead! It smells like most Nair products and is like a cream. You apply a thick layer before you shower and wait a couple of minutes then you go in the shower but try and not get wet and then use the spatula to remove the cream - removing the hair. Its really good and leaves your legs smooth and soft. I'm yet to try the wax strips.

Femfresh range- I won't go into much detail about this range but I will say that I defiantly recommend it.

Moisturisers- I love cocoa butter but I find palmers abit expensive and the smell is very powerful whereas this vaseline cocoa butter has a lovely smell and it moistures the skin- I got this on offer in superdrug for just under £2 which is like half the price of the palmers one.
The Nivea express hydration range is really good, it defiantly does the job when it come to hydrating the skin- I have very dry skin and this is perfect and it absorbs quickly.
I love hand creams and this is my favourite one! - when I take my nail varnish off I like to use this on my hands and nails- you only need to use a tiny pea size amount.

Face- The balance me range is really nice! I love these small sample size creams to keep in my make up bag for when I stop at dans. The eye cream is really nice- I'm not normally a fan of eye cream but I do love this! I also use lush Ultrabland on my face its a cleanser which is great for sensitive skin and also to remove make up because it contains beeswax. Also people with problem skin should use this on its own to bring the skin back to normal balance. I love foaming facial wash so when I finished my No 7 one I tried this body shop one and its really nice - it smells nice and isn't harsh on the skin at all!

I've been trying loads of new teeth products- I've been researching getting my teeth whitened but apparently it can cause alot of damage to your enamel so I've been using stain removal toothpaste and I'm gonna start using Arm & Hammer Enamel Care Sensitive toothpaste that restores surface enamel, It contains baking soda that is supposed to whiten your teeth more gently, its also for sensitive teeth.
