Hair burst

HairBust



Hi everyone, sorry for not being as active on my blog recently, my laptop has been broke for the past few months. I've tried using my Ipad but it doesn't let me use all the features I need for my posts. Anyway enough about that, do you have unhealthy, thin, short or damaged hair? I know I have, I wish I had thicker hair and that it would grow quicker than it does. But I think I've found a solution. I have been using Hairbust for two months now and I am so happy with the results so far, people were commenting on how much healthier my hair looked after the first few weeks of taking Hairbust. Some people who have used this product have said they've noticed a difference within the first month and others not till the third month, however I think this just depends on the person and how it works for each individual. However I was surprised to see the difference in my hair so soon, after the second week I noticed my hair  was shiny and looked so much healthier. I am known for dying my hair a lot, so as you can imagine my hair was fairly damaged. People have asked me if I've been using anything as my hair looks so much better. I didn't notice a proper difference in growth until the second month, but you never normally notice when your hair is growing to be fair until you look back at pictures. I've even managed to not dye my hair for the past few months as I am so happy with how good my hair looks compared to 3/4 months ago.

You can buy 1 tub of 60 capsules (a months supply) for £24.99 or you can buy the 3 months supply for £70.99, however these are on sale at the moment for £62.99
I'll be honest some people will think this is a steep price but trust me it is worth every penny. I will without a doubt be buying another batch of this stuff, if you want some quicker growth and healthier looking hair then I would  highly recommend using Hairbust. It has a 5 star rating from me and a big thumbs up. If you have any questions about this product please feel free to leave a comment  and I will get back to you.

Thanks for reading followers.

OK Bouquet

OK Bouquet
 
 
 
Good morning everyone, Monday is back again, but a lovely bunch of freshly cut flowers just for you would surly put a smile back on your face. The lovely people from OK Bouquet sent me a beautiful bouquet the other week and I thought I would do a post about them so you have a better idea of who they are and what they do.
 
 
 
OK Bouquet are a family run company with over 30 years experience. There main goal is to give customers the best flowers possible. They do this by using only the freshest, seasonal cut for their bouquets for higher quality. There bouquets are beautiful and contain blooms with longer stems which are 70cm long, this also ensures better quality.
 
 My bouquet arrived in a big long cardboard box, when I opened it up the flower were wrapped up so they were protected. I unwrapped the flowers and I felt so happy when I seen the flowers inside, the colours with vibrant and beautiful. The stems were very long as quoted on their website, to me the length somehow made the bouquet look all the more elegant. The bouquet lasted between 1 to 2 weeks, the great thing about this bouquet was their was some flowers that hadn't fully bloomed yet but did over the time I had them which was great. Ok Bouquet do lots of different types of bouquets: roses, lily's and mixed. I was very happy with the delivery time and I also received an email saying what time it should arrive at. My overall rating would be a 5/5, give Ok Bouquet a try and you won't be disappointed.

Sassea Swimwear





Sassea Swimwear

Sasea swimwear is a new swimwear brand which launched on the 22nd of July, I found this company on twitter and I was in love with their pieces straight away. My favourite pieces have to be the animal luxe bikini and the She Got A Way one piece.


There are two She Got A Way pieces, and they also do it with the colours swapped round (these are both pictured above). I really like the shades of this costume. Now the animal luxe push up is my personal favourite, I love the pattern on this bikini. It's not too vibrant but it would no doubt have heads turning. my favourite thing about this bikini is the straps on the top and the bottoms, I love the fact they are leather look and the blue tone goes so well with the black and white pattern. Also The leather strap on the briefs is only on the one side, which I think gives it that edgy look. The material is great it feels and looks well made and it is very comfy to wear. The last thing I have to say about this one is that most of the time bikinis that say they are push up normally means the swimwear will have that awkward padding stuffed in that a lot of the time your messing about trying to re position but this bikini is clever. Yes it has extra padding but it's strapped to the bikini its self so it will always stay in position and will never fall out of place after it's been washed. This will be ready to go straight in my suitcase for my next holiday. 




Sassea Swimwear is unique, their items are one offs. I love new brands that have their own style. A good company has to have that effect on people of when they see someone in an item they know straight away the brand or place it's from and I think Sassea will have that effect. They have their own style and I actually love every single item on their website. I know they've only just launched but I'm already excited for their next collection to come out because I will be one of the first to purchase an item from their website.

Material: 5/5
Unique: 5/5
Quality: 5/5

Contour Cosmetics!

 


Contour Cosmetics!

 
I discovered this new beauty brand when browsing social media, I love finding new companies as i'm am always intrigued to see new products and if their any good. Well Contour Cosmetics was one of them and now it's part of my must haves in my make up bag. The Contour Cosmetics multi-face contouring set has 6 different easy to apply shades, for lighter skin and darker. You can even mix two shades together to get a more even colour for your skin tone. It is easy to apply and feels smooth on the skin, I've used this with and without foundation, but to be honest I prefer using it with no foundation underneath. I just moisturise and then apply the contouring set. I have pale skin so I've been using the top three shades myself. Always make sure you have the right brushes to use when applying this, when using the wrong brush you'll probably end up with stroke marks from your brush and it will make your make up not look blended in and no one likes having have a patchy face.

If you don't know which brushes to use, they also provide contouring brushes to buy. This is the contour 01 sculpting brush, for £14.00 and they also do the contour 14 blending brush for £21.00. You can either buy them separate or save £7 and just buy the contour creation package which includes the contouring set and both the brushes with it for £70. The multi use contouring set on it's own is £42. So if you already have the correct brushes to use you can just buy the set and not the brushes.
 
Firstly I applied the lighter shade first, I used the top left shade. I applied this to my forehead, bridge of my nose, under my eyes, chin and a small amount just under my cheekbones. I then applied the middle shades on the top row to my cheekbones, sides of my nose and to the edges of my face. I then started to blend the colours together using a blending brush.
 
This was my finished look, I went for the subtle contouring look. The only other product I used was the Lauren Mercia highlighting powder, for highlighting under my eyes, the middle of my forehead and on the bridge of my nose to show off the light shades on my face. This was the first time I used the multi-use contouring set and I didn't want to go for the going out look as I wanted to see what it looked like first. Since trying this new products I have this in my make up bag all the time, from wanting to contour my face for a girls night or just to show off my cheekbones as part of an every day look. I have fallen in love with this product, it is well worth a try to make your mind up yourself on the product. I will with out a doubt be buying another palette soon, I need to stock up on this beauty must have now. You can follow Contour Cosmetics on twitter at: @contourcosmetic and their website is: www.contourcosmetics.co.uk


Easy application: 5/5
Price: 4/5
Finished look: 5/5
 
Also they do regular competitions on their twitter page to win their contouring set, so if you want to keep up with their latest news and competitions then please give them a follow. I will be featuring Contour Cosmetics in the future on my blog.
Thanks for reading viewers.

Ciate Mini Mani Manor Advent Calender

Ciate Mini Mani Manor Advent Calendar 
 
 
 
I have always wanted a beauty advent calendar, to open every day before Christmas and I was lucky enough to get the Ciate Mini Mani Manor. I was looking forward to opening the doors every morning, there was a great range of colours and glitters. I have been experimenting with a lot of the colours already. If you only wear calmer, softer colours on your nails, I'd still recommend on getting this advent calendar. As it has just as many neutral colours as it has bright colours
 

I adore the glitter varnishes, when I attempted using them I felt like I was doing arts and crafts. I used the pink glitter for one nail on each hand and used a similar plain pink colour on the rest of my nails. I applied the plain pink colour on all my nails including the two I wanted to put the glitter on, however as soon as I applied varnish on the other two fingers I put the glitter on top of it while the varnish was still wet. This was because it made the glitter stick, then I wiped away the glitter from around the nail. These glitters are perfect for making your nails stand out, maybe for a night out or a family do.
 
The metallic colours are great, my favourite is the pale metallic with little hints of gold in it. If you prefer wearing natural colours but are bored of your nails looking the same all the time and want a bit of a change, then this shade is perfect for you as the hints of gold make this colour pop out when on your nails. 
A lot of us love the pastel colours, these pastels will be just right for you when summer is back.

Now these varnishes are the ones that will make a statement, the one big bottle of Ciate nail varnish you get in this calendar is a silver glitter (normal varnish and not the pots of glitter) if you want to add a bit of sparkle to your coloured nails then this will do just that. You also get a pot with white pearls inside, this is the one second on the left, if you like having a 3d affect to your nails then try out these pearls. There are two different sizes of pearls in the pot, the other three varnishes are like the big glitter varnish. As they will all add that extra effect to your normal nail varnish.

Ciate nail varnish is now one of my favourites, as it drys so quickly and the colours always look exactly the same as they do in the pot on your nails. I would recommend buying this to anyone who likes their nail varnishes, you get a wide variety or colours from: pastels, metallic, bright and neutral colours and also including the bold glitters, pearls and a few more sparkly nail varnishes. You also get some nail transfers behind one of the doors, however I have not tried these myself yet. This would be the perfect gift for any girl that enjoys changing the nails all the time and who is always struggling to find the right colour to wear for a certain occasion, as there's such a big variety of shades in this advent calendar. This is priced at £49.99, however this is on sale at the moment for just £14.70 0n Ciate London's website (here is the link to the Ciate London calendar) https://www.ciatelondon.com/uk/mini-mani-manor?filter_name=advent so you could even get yourself a bargain and put this little beauty away for next Christmas, weather it's a gift for someone or you just want to treat yourself.
you get 23 5ml nail varnishes and 1 13.5ml, that's 24 nail varnishes and you also get another treat which is the nail transfers (that's all 25 doors). 
 
 
Variety of colours: 5/5

Magnitone Lucid 7 Day Challenge!

Magnitone Lucid 7 Day Challenge!
 
 
I first heard of this product online and was intrigued by this beautiful pink device, luckily for me I was sent the magnitone lucid and I couldn't wait to try it out.
Day 1:
When my magnitone lucid arrived I couldn't wait to give it a try, in the evening I used mine for the first time. There are two settings, if you click the button once it is the normal mode and if you click it again it will go into a sensitive mode. So if you have sensitive skin, I suggest using the second mode. With my magnitone lucid I used dermalogica face wash, as its one of my favourite face wash products. As I was using this product a timer sound went off three times ever 20 seconds, this is brilliant for making sure you cleanse your face in sections and for a decent amount of time. After the first use my skin felt amazing, my face felt fresh and cleansed. I also cleaned the brush and later applied my dermalogica moisturiser, this finished my first day of cleansing with Magnitone Lucid.
 
Day 2:
When I got up this morning, my skin felt refreshed and heavenly.
I used the Magnitone Lucid twice today, once in the morning and again at night. I used this product like I did the day before, same face wash and moisturer. However I only moisturised when using the Magnitone Lucid in the evening. My skin yet again felt fresh and cleansed and I was also starting to see a bit of a difference in my appearance.
 
Day 3:
My face felt the best it had been in ages, I couldn't wait to use the Magnitone Lucid again. As I was looking forward to seeing further results. I used this product twice again today, as I did on day two. As a lot of us do, I suffer with random breakouts. However after three days of using Magnitone Lucid, I had noticed a reduction of my random breakouts. My skin was gradually clearing up, which is a plus for me. As none of us like having spots.
 
Day 4:
I am already over half way through my Magnitone Lucid 7 day challenge and I am chuffed with my results so far. I used the same as previous days, once in the morning and again in ththe evening. However I changed to the sensitive mode today, this felt super soft on my skin and made my face feel a lot softer than it did before.
 
Day 5:
Due to my face feeling softer after using the Magnitone Lucid yesterday, I stuck to using the sensitive mode today and will be doing so for the last two days. This product has easily fitted into my daily cleanse routine and I will be using this again in the future. To be honest I had already made my mind up on what I thought about the Magnitone Lucid a few days in, it's absolutely fantastic.
 
Day 6:
This morning my skin looked so clear and I noticed that glow to my face, my skin felt smooth and looked cleansed and refreshed. Today I only used this product once, in the morning. This was because I wanted to give my skin a rest from the brush, this was because I didn't want to adjutate my skin.
 
Day 7:
Today was my last day using the Magnitone Lucid, which also meant it was time to decide on what I thought about my results. I can honestly say that I was actually quite surprised on what a difference the Magnitone Lucid had made to my skin. My face was a lot smoother, it felt refreshed, cleansed, most of my spots had disappeared and last of all my skin had that lovely glow to it. As they say 'you glow girl'!
 
Overall review:
The Magnitone Lucid is brilliant, I am so happy with my results. The brush feels like a simple massage to your face and when using the sensitive mode it feels very relaxing. The rotating brush helps your skin absorb the face wash or moisturiser you are using and the timer is great for sectioning, so you know your cleansing each part of your face evenly. Within a few days I noticed a difference to my skin, I felt the difference to my skin first and noticed the appearance to my face a couple of days later. This Magnitone Lucid is priced at £69.99, this can be seen as expensive. However I do think this is a great buy, this is because I was impressed with my results using this product. I also love the charger, there is no wires or plugs just a simple white device that is magnetic. All you have to do is put it on the bottom of your Magnitone lucid, this will stick to your product and start charging it up. I adore the box packaging and the beautiful pink colour of the actual product. I will be using this in the future, I have decided that i will cleanse my face as I normally do in my daily routine. but i will use this product the last week of every month.
 
It is a 5/5 from me, add that glow to your skin with the Magnitone Lucid!

Christmas Wish List With Fiona's Boutique.

Christmas Wish List With Fiona's Boutique.

Fiona's Boutique is back again, I absolutely love this company. Amazing dresses, two pieces, jackets and much more and all for great prices. I have made myself a Christmas wish list full off
Fiona's Boutique items.
 

Warm In Winter
 
Firstly we have got this padded winter jacket with fur collar for £49.00, I have this jacket and it is very comfy. It is a thin jacket with a padded effect, it fits me perfectly and looks beautiful on. It would look great with a nice bright wooley hat and scarf and maybe accompanied with leggings or skinny jeans and some ankle or knee high boots. I think this style jacket will look very smart and if your ever going somewhere like example: the German Markets or for a quite drink and you don't want to get too dressed up but want to feel comfy and look stylish then this padded effect jacket will do just that. There is also a sleeveless version on this jacket for £42. You can pre order these online. http://www.fionas-boutique.co.uk/product/preorder-padded-winter-jacket-with-fur-collar




 
I absolutely adore this thick fur Winter gillet for £44, it looks fresh, cosy, warm and great for Winter. This is perfect for the day and maybe with some leather look leggings and ankle boots and it would even look great in the evening. This is a must have this Winter, it needs to be part of every girls wardrobe. http://www.fionas-boutique.co.uk/product/preorder-thick-fur-winter-gillet
 
Shine Bright Like A Diamond
 
Most of us look forward to dressing up in December, with Christmas and New Years Eve just around the corner. I love glitter and sequins and I always use this time of year as an excuse to shine like a glitter ball. I have recently been converted to crop tops as I explained on my last post and I love this sequin two piece for £46. I love seeing people wearing shiny metallic colours in Winter as I think they always make a statement and this outfit will do just that. I am going to hopefully order myself this for Christmas as it's my favourite outfit on Fiona's Boutique at the moment. http://www.fionas-boutique.co.uk/product/preorder-deluxe-sequin-two-piece
 
Next on the on the list and sticking to the glitter theme is this green sequin dress for £40, I have picked this dress for my Christmas wish list because of the eye catching green coloured sequins. Greens and reds are always on trend at Christmas time and I think this two toned coloured dress will make you and everyone around you feel festive. I also like neck line and the long sleeves will keep you feeling a bit warmer when out in this cold weather. http://www.fionas-boutique.co.uk/product/preorder-green-sequin-dress

Lady In Red
 
Lastly we have this deep v lace dress, I couldn't do a Christmas wish list and not include something red! This little beauty is £34 and the belt is not included. I love the deep v cut on this dress, also you will easily be able to find a belt like the one in the picture that will look great with this. But it looks just as nice without a belt. http://www.fionas-boutique.co.uk/product/preorder-deluxe-red-deep-v-lace-dress
