Kerastase Elixir Ultime For Damaged Hair

Kerastase Elixir Ultime For Damaged Hair 

I thought I should dedicate a post to this amazing product I have came across this month from Kerastase. Now, if you have read any of my haircare posts, you will probably know I have colored hair and often get bleach highlights, which can be very drying and damaging on the hair. I am always looking for the next best conditioning serum that will reduce frizz and leave my hair looking and feeling strong yet smooth.

Whilst browsing online at http://www.lookfantastic.com I came across the Kerastase Elixir Ultime For Damaged Hair. This product is a oil type serum that can be used on wet or dry hair and leaves hair feeling deeply nourished.

This oil is £29.30 for 125ml, which is quite expensive I know, however you only need a 2-3 pumps so this should last a long while. This serum smells amazing on the hair, with strong notes of citrus it is very refreshing! This oil can also be used as a pre-cleanse and applied to hair before shampooing. I have been applying this product to wet hair and leaving my hair to air dry. Usually, if I leave my hair to air dry, it would be dry and frizzy, but with this product my hair is smooth and conditioned and only needs to be straightened a little with my hair straighteners.

Amazing product and I would highly recommend if you too have dry or damaged hair!!!!

Victoria's Secret Limited Edition Lost in Love

Victoria's Secret Limited Edition Lost in Love

Just a quick post to share with you guys my thoughts on the limited edition scent from Victoria's Secret called 'Lost in Love'. I have never tried any of the scents from Victoria's Secret before, but since a new store opened close to me in the UK, I haven't been able to stay away!

I picked up the body mist and the body lotion and the scent of this stuff is to die for! It is perfect for summer and has notes of coconut and tiare flower to give a beautiful tropical and fresh scent. I love to smother myself in this stuff when I get out of the shower and I can still smell it on my skin hours later!

I am definitely going to try more of the scents from Victoria's Secret and think this limited edition collection is perfect for Summer and holidays.

NEW L'oreal L'Extraordinaire Liquid Lipstick by Color Riche

L'oreal L'Extraordinaire Liquid Lipstick by Color Riche

I recently picked up one of the new Liquid Lipsticks by L'oreal. I opted for the shade 201 Rose Symphony, which is a bright pink with almost a touch of coral. There a bunch of great shades available (9 in total) and these retail at £8.99.

First of all, this liquid lipstick has amazing pigmentation and can be sheered out if desired but can also give a real opaque finish in just one stroke! The formula is amazing. It smells fruity and good enough to eat and feels just heavenly on the lips. I loathe sticky, glupy lip products and this one from L'oreal is neither. This product is super moisturising, almost like a balm, yet it delivers the colour intensity of a lipstick and the shine of a gloss.

Application is made easy with a feather-soft wand and as I said before, one stroke is all you need for great color intensity. Alot of liquid lipsticks can be drying on the lips, which is why I think this one is amazing as it is super moisturizing and forgiving on slightly drier lips.

Overall, these liquid lipsticks have it all. They smell great, feel great and look great. They are affordable and come in some great shades. I will definitely be picking some more of these up for sure!!!!

Revlon Parfumerie Scented Nail Enamel

Revlon Parfumerie Scented Nail Enamel

So, I recently spotted the new scented nail polishes from Revlon whilst out on a shopping trip and I knew I had to give them a try! These nail polishes are £6.49 and come in 20 awesome colors. I decided to pick one up in the shade 'Ginger Melon'. This shade is perfect for Spring/Summer and is a lovely, vibrant pinky/coral shade.

These nail polishes apply beautifully and the formula is great (not too runny or thick). I needed just two coats to get a great opaque finish and best off all they are scented!!! This nail polishes has an amazing fruity scent once dry, which makes this really fun and quite frankly amazing!

Overall, I LOVE these nail polishes. I have already ordered four more shades and I am extremely excited to find out what they smell like, I think that is the great thing about these nail polishes. I have had my nails painted in this shade for three days now and it hasn't chipped or peeled, although I do apply a Sally Hansen top coat and base coat.

Go give these nail polishes a bash, they are fun and girly and great for Spring and Summer!!!!

Chanel Gommage Microperle Éclat Maximum Radiance Exfoliating Gel

Chanel Gommage Microperle Éclat Maximum Radiance Exfoliating Gel

I purchased the Chanel Gommage Microperle Éclat Maximum Radiance Exfoliating Gel a few months ago and decided to do a quick post today of my thoughts on this product! Firstly, price wise, this exfoliator is pricey at £34.00 for 75ml. In terms of packaging; this product comes in a squeezy tube, which is very practical and has the simplicity of all Chanel beauty products (which I personally love!)

This product is a gel based face scrub, that uses pearl powder and jojoba microbeads as its exfoliation agents. It has a lovely silky, gel texture and did not irritate or upset my skin. I often stay clear of face scrubs and often opt for a exfoliating toner, as I find them less harsh on the skin, but this one from Chanel doesn't feel harsh or abrasive on the skin what so ever.

When I have used this product, my skin feels lovely and smooth and noticeably brighter. This product gives the skin a lovely natural and subtle glow, which I love! I apply this product to damps skin and gently massage the entire face with small circular movements. I feel this exfoliator would be great for anyone with sensitive skin, as I find it very gentle on the skin. The product glides easily onto the skin but I do find that I need to use a good amount of this stuff to get a good scrub going on, which isn't ideal as this stuff is pretty pricey!

Overall, I have been loving this product. It is a nice change for me as I don't often use face scrubs. I don't think I would repurchase again, just as I prefer the Alpha H Liquid gold, as I feel it does alot more to my skin, but I cannot fault this product, and it smells great too!!

L'Oreal Superliner Perfect Slim

L'Oreal Superliner Perfect Slim

Hi Guys! So I have recently been trying quite a few liquid liners. My all time favourite is the Stila Liquid Eyeliner, but I have recently found a more cheaper alternative from L'Oreal.

The L'Oreal Superliner Perfect Slim, is similar to the Stila one in terms of packaging. This eyeliner comes in a slim 'pen' like form with a ultra fine felt tip nib, great for creating fine lines or flicks! This eyeliner is just £6.99, and I purchased mine from http://www.superdrug.com. I am not sure if they come in various colours, but I opted for the intense black, which is super black and pigmented.

The nib on this eyeliner is great for creating fine lines and flicks and can create precision lines as fine as 0.4mm. If you do prefer the more 'dramatic' look, you can easily build a thicker line with this eyeliner. In terms of application, this eyeliner applies really easily and is super pigmented, glossy and dries relatively quickly. As you can see from the above image, this eyeliner also has an 'easy grip surface' below the nib, which makes it easy to keep firm hold of the pen and create a steady, precise line.

In terms of wear, this eyeliner wears relatively well, but just not as well as my beloved Stila one. When I wear my Stila Eyeliner, it does NOT budge all day and will not run, smear or fade. I have noticed that this eyeliner does fade slightly throughout the day and does have the tendency to smear somewhat also. I must say, I do have oily eyelids and most products struggle to stay put so that doesn't disappoint me too much.

Overall, if you are looking for an affordable liquid liner then do give this a try. It applies beautifully but maybe just doesn't wear as long as the Stila Eyeliner.

CORALista Ultra Plush Lip Gloss by Benefit

CORALista Ultra Plush Lip gloss by Benefit

I know this lip gloss has been about for quite a while, but I only decided to pick this up recently. I have been a huge fan of the CORALista blush for some time, so figured I would give the lip gloss a try too. The lip gloss retails at £14.50 for 15ml.

The packaging of this product is great. It is simple, lightweight and easy to use on the go as comes in a small squeezable tube. This lip gloss is a really nice formula. it is non sticky and feels silky and smooth on the lips. This shade is a sheer coral and looks beautiful worn alone, for a lovely spring/summer look. This gloss is the perfect partner for the matching CORALista box blush powder by Benefit.

Overall, a lovely product. A pretty, sheer, lightweight coral gloss which would be perfect for Spring/Summer.
