Boots Curly Hair Mousse Review

Well, I've been trying sooo many different styling products for my wavy 2a/2b hair and finally I am that step closer to having the wavy hair I've been dying to have!

Yesterday (after reading enough reviews to be convinced) I purchased Boots Curly Hair Mousse R.R.P £1.05 (yes £1.05!!!)

I styled my hair the same as usual: after washing, working product into hair without raking it in, diffusing most of it then allowing it to fully dry naturally... And I am VERY pleased with the results!

• No crunchiness!
• No stickiness!
• Soft, moisturised, shiny bouncy waves!

And all this for £1.05!

And here's what the mousse looks like...

And the results!

Maybelline The Rocket Volum Express Reviews and Before and After Photos!

I usually use the One-by-One mascara by Maybelline but I found this new mascara: Maybelline The Rocket Volum Express and thought I'd give it a go! It retails at £7.99 in Boots but I can imagine it is available on many other Maybelline stalls.

Here's what it looks like...

All I did for application was curl my eyelashes with Cosmopolitans eyelash curler and then applied one thick coat to the lashes (I've tried two thin coats in the past with mascara but actually find it clumpier than one thick coat)

Here's before...

And after!

I'm very happy with the results of this mascara, as you can see I have pale eyelashes as I have generally pale colouring and the mascara has really separated my lashes and gave them length and noticeable volume.

Out of ten?

A definite 10 so far!!

Good Hair Day!

Good (hair) day everyone! :)

I received my new deep conditioning treatment this morning called 'Jessicurl Deep Conditioning Treatment' and with this treatment it is advised to shampoo and then apply treatment to wet hair and comb through and leave on for 30-60 minutes. I left it on for 30 minutes, rinsed then followed with Jessicurl styling treatment and I am very happy so far! The styling treatment is easy to use and doesn't make my hair crunchy, frizzy or dry. The conditioning treatment cost me £15 from http://www.britishcurlies.co.uk/store/ and it arrived within a couple of days. So far, so good!

A Picture of My Goodies from The Body Shop

Here is a photo of my parcel from The Body Shop that I received yesterday, if you check out the post previous to this, I have a YouTube video talking about these product (for some reason I missed out the hand cleanser and night cream on the video blog doh!)

I think all this in the same came to around £50, which seems a lot but the amount I saved was incredible and a lot of these products will last me a good few months.

I also think this box that it came in will do great to store my monthly empties so I can blog on January 31st :)

That's all for now!

My Workout Make-up (yes workout!)

I'm a frequent gym goer and generally go 5-6 days a week and although I love a great, intense workout, I still want to look better than worse for wear if that's even possible whilst working out! A lot of people are against wearing make-up to the gym but as long as you take it off after and give your pores a good cleanse I don't see the problem, if a little make-up whilst working out makes you feel more confident why the hell not!

Anyway this is the sort of coverage I tend to go for at the gym, I don't put a lot on I generally just even my complexion out. For the gym, the foundation I use is Maybelline's matte mousse is shade Light Porcelain, matte is a good idea for the gym due to the sweating and I do sweat a lot on my face! I used a little moisturiser underneath but generally a good toner before applying foundation should be enough to remove any dirt and oils so you keep it looking at matte as you can whilst at the gym...
