Bumble & Bumble Bb Texture hair (un)dressing creme

I recently braved it and got my hair cut into a long bob. My hair was pretty long before then but with having it cut short I needed some new styling techniques and products. I love that messy bed-hair look and scowered beauty blogs for products that would help achieve this look easily. I've heard a lot about Bumble & Bumble but have never actually tried anything. Having read nothing but good things about their Bb Texture Hair (un)Dressing Creme I ordered some online.

RRP £21.50 150ml

It claims to give hair that elusive undone-yet-done quality with a hint of grit, extra lift and a tousled shine-free finish. And that it does.

Since having my hair cut it's been in amazing condition, almost too good condition. I've found myself washing it almost everyday so it tends to be quite soft which isn't great for achieving that messy tousled look. This product gives my hair grip, texture and an extra bit of volume.

I use a pea sized amount on towel dried hair, run it through from the roots to the ends then leave it a minute or two before blow drying. It leaves my hair neatly messy (if that's possible) and the product holds all day.

The only downside is that if you use too much it can leave your hair kind of crunchy so always start with a little and build.

It's a great product and a definite must have of mine now. I can't wait to try some more Bumble & Bumble products.

Have you tried Bumble & Bumble? Can you recommend any products to try next?

Vaseline Hand Cream + Anti-Bac Review

Vaseline is one of those trusty brands, I remember my Nana using the huge pink Healthy Hands & Nails religiously when I was a kid and have been a loyal user ever since. It always does the job. I was particularly intrigued to try their latest product - Vaseline Hand Cream + Anti-Bac.

RRP £3.29 75ml

I am a total hand cream addict - I carry a tube around with me, have one on my desk and my bedside table - I can't bear dry hands. So, a new hand cream is always appealing, none more so than this. This little wonder claims to contain five essential moisturisers plus sanitising germ protection. For anyone that would like to know, the five essential moisturisers are Glycerin, Potassium Lactate, Sodium PCA, Urea and Collegen Amino Acids.
What appeals the most about this is that for a hygeine freak like me (yes I carry hand sanitiser in my bag too!) it means you can kill germs and moisturise in one step - perfect for when you're out and about. I can now only carry one tube in my bag, hooray!
Above all it's a really nice hand cream. It absorbs quickly and has a really pleasant sweet smell. Better yet it's proven to kill germs - win win. I can see it becoming a festival essential along with baby wipes and dry shampoo.
I really like this product and can't believe it hasn't been done sooner really, but well done Vaseline it's a lovely product.

Back And Blogging

Hi there.

I've been really rubbish at blogging over the past few months having had a crazy busy end of last year and start to this one for various reasons. Anyway, I'm really dedicated to my blog and am turning over a new blogging leaf so keep your eye out for lots more posts.

I've been trying out lots of new products recently as well as buying lots of fabulous things so have plenty to talk about.

First up will be My Must Haves for Spring.

Stay tuned...
