Herbal Essences Hello Hydration

I wanted to love this shampoo.. It's affordable, easy to get hold of and it smells absolutely divine. I used both the shampoo and the deep nourishing mask  - I usually don't bother with the regular conditioner and only go for the deep treatments; they're only applied to lengths and ends of the hair anyway.
Don't get me wrong, I do really like these two but I would be lying if I said they've radically changed the way my hair feels. They're very nice, but just that - they're not incredible and they don't transform the hair.

Conclusion: They're just really lovely, everyday shampoo and conditioner that won't disappoint but won't rock your world either.

Having said that, I do love the scent of these so maybe one day Herbal Essences will release a leave-in spray type product that would work as a hair mist/fragrance? Please? Pretty please, Herbal Essences?

Nude pink lips.. Some of my favourite products

These are just some of my favourite lip products for soft, delicate looking pink lips.. I'm a huge fan of these colours - they're easy to wear, they are versatile and touching up, even without a mirror is not a problem.

I could swatch each product, describe it, tell you what I think.. but the truth is most of these products look very similar on the lips. The lipsticks give you a thin coating of colour and texture, the lip glosses are thinner and glossier but most look very similar. I love and use all of these. All of the glosses are without shimmer and there are two lipsticks here (BarryM 132 and Rimmel Parade) that have shimmer so I reach for these two a little less but they still look lovely on the lips and add more volume than other lip products here do.

Body Oils

These are my favourite body oils. You'd use them right after the shower, as a moisturizer or as an added step before your body lotion.
If you have the time and patience to layer these, I suggest applying them all over, right after the shower in a very thin layer. These soak up very quickly so you can follow with the usual lotion almost immediately.
If you'd rather not layer them, you can use these on their own instead of your normal lotion, they're brilliant for that too.

Another thing you can do with these is to use them for an aesthetic effect: in the summer, before you leave home you can apply some oil onto your arms and legs and it will give your skin a beautiful sheen. To make this easier, you can pick up one of those travel spray bottles and just spray it on.. The Boots Botanics Softening Body Oil is actually already in a spray bottle so this one is actually my favourite one. But if you cannot get hold of it, the Boots No7 Dry Oil Body Spray is great as well, not mentioning the good old Nivea Firming Body Oil...

Tip: if you're after the No7 Dry Oil Body Spray you're best off waiting for Boots to have £5 off vouchers; same applies to Nivea - very often there're half price offers going on.

No7 Dry Oil Body Spray, £9.50.
