3 beauty products i can't live without!

We all have certain beauty products that we cannot live without! and i for one have some holy grails that i absolutely swear by! my skincare regime is pretty simple really! i do add other products to my regime but these products are the ones that i never miss! I would say my skin is combination, i get some oily patches but also dry. but i would say its fairly normal!

these products, are my little gems that i have used for quite a few years now! i do try other products but i do tend to stick to these especially la roche posay as i find nothing else is as good! now i say my skin is pretty normal but last year it did go through a weird stage and that's when i knew that these were my definite saviours to sort my skin out! i think i was trying out a new face wash, i cant remember which one exactly it was but that was when i started to get a few problems with my skin- that's all i can think of that it was. i started getting a few spots under my jaw line, which ended up clusters on both sides which became very sore! luckily i could hide them as much as i could with make up- and just let me skin breathe when i could (at home ect).  normally places like that where you end up getting spots is normally due to hormonal! but whatever it was- it decided to stay for  a fair few weeks! i did get quite down and self conscious about it as i had never had anything like that before. So that was it, time to head to boots to get my trusty products!

make up remover- my liz earl hot cloth cleanser, I've used this little beauty for years! removes all of your make up, leaves your skin feeling so clean and soft and no residue left on your skin.

la roche posay effaclar duo- can i just say this product is amazing! i have used this for years now and i can honestly say its the best thing ever! its an anti imperfections serum/moisturiser. if you have any blemishes or marks it helps them fade! if i get a spot the blemish tends to stay for a while but since using this, it really is an anti imperfections product, it basically corrects the anti imperfections and any marks on your face and is anti clogging when is perfect for me! a product that has changed my skin for the better!

along with the effaclar face wash! its soap and paraben free, since using this its really kept my oily T-zone at bay! this product is tested on oily acne prone skin- even though i don't have acne skin i can assure you this product is soo worth trying out! and this along with my effaclar duo have certainly kept my skin looking and feeling so much better and spot/blemish free!!

i cant speak for everyones skin- these are what i find are the best for my skin!but i would reccomend you trying them out if you have slightly oily skin and blemish prone skin :) let me know if you do and what you think!

Bath and body works autumn collection

Can we just talk about bath and body works products?! i flippin' LOVE them!. They always bring out the best scents especially in autumn/winter. So it would of been rude of me not to try out some of the autumn creamy body wash range ;)


I'll be honest...its not my favourite packaging that they have brought out but putting that aside, they smell AMAZING!


For those who live in the uk (like me) and are not lucky enough to have any stores near to just go in and buy everything! (i wish i could!) we do have a few options...oh yes, you can get your hands on them, hooray!! you can order on the website and get them shipped over but you can pay a hefty customs charge :( and you cannot order everything from there to be shipped to the u.k. I use a uk facebook selling site, with people who work on cabin crew, who can take direct orders! or from lovely people that do make a big orders to be shipped! the people on the facebook site which is called bath and body works fans uk are amazing and i …

why professional over highstreet? (hair care)

As a hairdresser i get asked a lot about the best shampoo's you can buy in a high street store! and my answer to that? NONE.
I always advise my clients to go for professional shampoo. Most of the time the response we get is " but high street brands are a lot cheaper" and yes there is a reason for that...they are full of crap! i wont go into the science part but they have a lot of  harsh chemicals in them that do nothing good for your locks!. You are basically pouring plastic on your hair, alot of the cheaper brands have a lot of silicone's in them, which might lead you to think that its making your hair lovely and soft, but your just coating it and not actually, cleansing your hair ...so then it gets greasy and itchy quick?... i wonder why!

 We do not recommend professional products to gain the money, we actually care about your hair!
they don't have the harsh chemicals in them that the cheaper brands have in. If you colour your hair they don't strip it out! …

my winter staples

I might be a little late to the party considering winter has been here for a while! but better late than never and it is still winter!
in the colder months there are certain beauty products that are my saviours that i use every single day in the winter.
I think its important to really look after your skin throughout the year, but definitely in the winter with the harsh cold weather on your skin can make it pretty dry. So keeping my skin soft and well moisturised is most definitely a MUST - who wants dry skin?!

Body cream- the one brand that never fails me are the bath and body works Shea creams, they are super moisturising, they leave your skin so soft and they smell amazing! and the fragrance really lingers. my favourite part about these besides the gorgeous scents are the fact they aren't sticky! i love a bath at night time and there is nothing worse then getting into bed feeling all tacky after moisturising! they soak into your skin really quickly, so you don't get that tac…
