Garnier BB cream

If you havn't heard all the raving about this, where have you been?! I'm used to wearing a very high coverage foundation, Estee Lauder double-wear, but decided I should give my skin a break during the day, especially when i'm just working, so had been thinking about trying a BB cream or tinted moisturiser. I'd heard loads of good things about this one and after reading a few blog reviews decided it would definitely be worth a try! It's usually £9.99 but I got it on offer in Superdrug for £7.49.

Considering I'm used to wearing such high coverage, I was a bit sceptical about whether I would actually hate this but I really do like it! It looks like I have just naturally good skin when I wear this, it doesn't cover my skin, just kind of perfects it. This evens out my skin tone and makes my skin look glowy and just looks really natural. The only thing it doesn't cover for me is redness, if I go out in the cold my cheeks get red but hey hopefully the weather will get better soon. Come on England!! 

Overall I really love this, I feel like I have no make up on, look natural but not like a zombie and feel more fresh which I will love for the summer. I would 100% recommend this for something which is natural but not just rubbish coverage. It really works to make your skin look as if it's naturally good and also it smells really nice! If you're looking for something like this get to Superdrug and snap it up quick before the offer ends and I doubt you will regret it!

Have you tried this? What do you think of it?

 So there's all the bits i've bought over a couple of trips, my favourite being the playsuit! It has taken me two years but I have finally found THE perfect playsuit!

Lush Daddy-O Shampoo

Hey guys! So this is a scheduled post as I'm starting work at 9am and finishing around midnight... My sister bought me this shampoo for Christmas as she'd heard alot about it and thought it would be good for me being a blondie. It's a purple shampoo (obviously) for cancelling out the brassiness in blonde/white hair however it says it works well for brunettes too! 

I've been using this since Christmas about twice a week and as you can see I've barely used a quarter of the bottle. I only need to use a small amount of this and it lathers up really well and it smells soooo nice! It smells kind of like parma violets which I absolutely love. It helps with the brassiness well however I wouldn't say it's any better than any other purple shampoo I've used. Saying that, it makes my hair reaally soft, shiny and light weight and also less knotty when I have to brush it after a shower! I really like this shampoo and would recommend it if you have blonde knotty hair that needs a bit of care and shine after all that bleaching!

What are you favourite hair products for blonde hair?
