Ultimate Blends - The delicate Soother ♡

Hi hunny's! 

Being a hairdresser, I like to try the high street products that you guys rave about so I can have an alternative to recommend to clients who buy from the shelves instead of in salons. 

Recently I have heard great reviews  on Ultimate Blends 'The Delicate Soother'. I LOVE some of the others in the Ultimate blends range so why not give this one a go!? 

 I picked these up in ASDA for £2 each! So £6 for shampoo, conditioner and a body lotion. What a steal!!



First of all the smell of this range is beautiful! I could smell it without even opening the bottle! The main ingredients are rice cream and oat milk. The packaging is sooo pretty and girly. Almost a little like the dove packaging as they always go for white and a neutral colour. 

Even the name 'The delicate soother' sounds comforting!! I was worried that it would make my hair lank as my hair is quite fine, but I gave it a go and was pleasantly surprised. This shampoo really soothes your scalp leaving it feeling moisturised and super clean. The shampoo itself is really quite thick, so you don't need much of it. It lathers up lovely and leaves your hair feeling so clean and moisturised. The conditioner is a lot thinner than I thought as I thought it would be more of a treatment style but never the less it did the trick, detangling and nourishing my hair.

All in all I am pleased with this product. And will defo re purchase! You will not be disappointed!

WHY YOU NEED GARNIER MICELLAR WATER



WHY YOU NEED GARNIER MICELLAR WATER



This is  100% the best value micellar solution. It easily removes foundation, concealer, blush/bronze and lipstick without me needing to rub on my skin to hard. While I doubt you'll get 200 uses (as advertised), it still works out the cheapest and it's the most effective. Make-up is easily removed and it's  very gentle on the skin - far better removal than wipes. I like to use it with large oval pads so that you can take it off in large sections as taking your makeup this way can be quite time consuming. It also doesn't take a lot of product to work successfully, just enough to dampen a cotton pad. Even if you use this aswell as makeup wipes you won't be disappointed. Like other micellar solutions. It's not the best at removing waterproof make-up (doable, but leaves a bit of residue) but is otherwise very effective. Skin is slightly tacky for a few seconds and then you can safely slap on some face cream and crawl into bed.It leaves my skin feeling really clean and does not dry out my skin like some toners do.
overall i love this product and am stocking up as my mum has taken a liking to it also! 
I hope they sell a smaller version, like half size, as it would be ideal for travel.

Garnier Summerbody




Garnier Summer Body Lotion Deep Sun-Kissed



Wanting a summer kissed look? Don't want the streaks and that biscuit smell? Look no further! I use this as part of my daily beauty routine and want you lot to know about it!
Is Summerbody Moisturising Lotion for me?
If you are looking for a daily body moisturiser that leaves your skin feeling soft and supple with the added benefit of looking naturally sun-kissed and radiant all year round, most certainly yes.
How does it work?
Specially designed for deeper skin tones, the formula contains a hint of tanning ingredient, to gradually build a natural-looking even tan after each application. Enriched with a moisturising complex and natural extract of apricot, Summerbody intensely moisturises your skin all day long leaving it feeling soft and supple.

Developing time:
I didn’t notice much  of a difference until I’d applied it two or three times.

How to Use It

"Usage Recommendation: Wash hands well after each application as it can tan your hands. Apply evenly all over the body for a non streaked result. I like to wait a few minutes before i get dressed so that it doesn't run onto my clothes.

At the moment in Boots it's on offer for £4.00! Thats a saving of £3.79 (usually £7.79)


I am amazed with this product. Its such a great price.  It Tans perfectly and builds up quickly which is a bonus as you an start just  a couple of days before your going out. It leaves no streaks or marks what so ever, whilst  Moisturising  and leaving skin feeling silky and smooth. Defiantly would recommend this to anyone and everyone!!

Hair ❤️

HAIR <3 
Healthy gorgeous hair is the best revenge!
here is a low down of my favourite hair products at the moment! enjoy! x 


SHAMPOOS&CONDITIONERS:

Firstly, I like a lot of shampoo and conditioners at the moment, I don't know about you but I have about 5 different types in my shower and I alternate between them all every time I shower! 
I am forever faithful to 'AUSSIE'. For me its the smell, its just beautiful. I sniff my hair all day when I've used it. I think its got to be one of the best high street brand shampoo's compared to some of the stuff they put on the shelves!(TRESEMME) cough cough. Another I like at the moment is BLEACH's purple shampoos and conditioners. These are brill for the likes of dip dyes and ombre's that can go slightly orange/dull. These also smell nice and leave the hair moisturised but are not too heavy! Another that I'm liking is L'OREAL ELVIVE THICKENING SHAMPOO. I used this for a week and I personally really did notice a difference! Crazy, as what I was taught at hairdressing college was that products don't help but it seems that they really can! Note - not permanent, results are only from wash to wash. I'm very fussy when it comes to shampoo as I don't like anything that leaves my hair feeling too heavy or limp. 

























But the all time for me has to be the GARNIER ULTIMATE BLENDS (marvellous transformer) shampoo & conditioner. I often flit between do I want volume or nourishment, but this shampoo seems to manage both without a problem, leaving my hair full and not lank. The packaging isn't the best and you wouldn't be drawn to it on the shelf. This proves its not what it looks like its what's on the inside that counts! (cringe). You may be thinking that doesn't really matter but I know from personal experience i am drawn to the fancy packaging quite often.


















you can buy/ search these products online at:http://www.boots.com/en/Garnier-Ultimate-Blends/
LEAVE IN TREATMENTS:

Revlon's UNIQUE 1 spray treatment:

This product is a leave in hair treatment that gives your hair a whole host of benefits. 
It promises 10 benefits for all hair types. Firstly it smells like a holiday in a bottle. Its got a really summery scent and is not too overpowering like some products. These are the promised benefits listed below:


  • repair for dry and damaged hair 
  • shine & frizz control
  • heat protection
  • silkiness and smoothness
  • hair colour protection contains UVA & UVB filters
  • Easier brushing and straightening 
  • incredible detangling
  • long lasting hairstyle 
  • split end prevention
  • adds body    

Now I know what your thinking.. yeah right, but it is actually a miracle product. I've been using it for years now and I've really noticed the difference. So yeah, try it! I apply it after washing, before drying. I use about a 2 pence piece sized amount and my hair is mid-length so if shorter/ longer  use less/ more etc... Try it! let me know what you think.

 you can buy this also online at :http://www.amazon.co.uk/treatment-Trattamento-intensivo-riparatore-protettore/dp/B006OKAKC8

Another one I'm into at the moment is the Schwarzkopf (BONACURE COLOURED ENDS) treatment. Use after washing same as the Unique 1 treatment. About 5 pumps as it's only for the ends. I feel that it just helps banish those dry, crispy ends you get especially if your ends of your hair are bleached/ lightened. Now, we sell this in the salon and i think the RRP is about £12. But if your lucky (a secret tip for you!). You can sometimes find it in the POUNDSHOP! Can you believe it! Which means you can buy that MAC lipstick you wanted AND your hair treatment in one day! :). I've just looked and its actually on sale on amazon! :http://www.amazon.co.uk/Schwarzkopf-Bonacure-Colour-Freeze-Coloured/dp/B007C84UO0
