Garnier Ultimate Blends Sleek Restorer shampoo and conditioner review

Last year I was looking for a new shampoo and conditioner, previously I was using Aussie but I fancied a change, I needed something that would get my back to being silky smooth and looking healthy.

Slowly I am getting through my stash of products and using things I have received either in GlossyBoxes or samples somewhere!

Garnier Ultimate Blends coconut hair oil £9.99
My hair felt absolutely amazing using this. It's also a lightweight formula so your hair doesn't feel weighed down or look greasy

Would I buy full size?
Yes, of course

A new month and a new set and of empty products to review, these are not the usual kind of products I tend to use, minus the dry shampoo but it's always good to try something new!
--

Batiste dry shampoo in tropical
You all know I love a dry shampoo, they come in so handy if I haven't had a chance to wash my hair or I just want to add a little texture. This one smells so gorgeous just like summer!

Will I buy again?
Of course!

How to boost tired and dull skin

Do you ever get that feeling when you look in the mirror sometimes and your skin just looks dull and tired and you just feel urgh? Well lately that's exactly how I've been, the past couple months have been a lot crazy for me some of you know but all will be revealed shortly in a post and on my YouTube channel.

I thought I would share with you all what I have been doing to give my face/skin a little boost and some me time, just to let you know if you don't know already I have combination skin so some of these products may not be best suited but I will try and link the equivalent. You may think this is quite simple but finding the products that suit your skin can be quite difficult to begin with. This is what I tend to do once a week or some products once every few weeks.

I made a pact to myself this year that I would try different brands and products seeing as I have a small collection of things I'm finishing a lot of different kinds of products lately which is definitely a good thing! So here is the latest lot of products I've finished.....

Palmers cocoa butter solid formula
Who doesn't love the smell of Palmers cocoa butter?! I love this and it certainly keeps you moisturized just it can leave your hands feeling very greasy after

Will I buy again?
Yes, this is great if you have dry skin

Schwarzkopf rise and shine volume and hair spray
I got this when I was away one weekend as I forgot mine and I thought I would try this one as I wanted some volume too. I think what sold it was the volume side but unfortunately I was a bit disappointed there was not really any volume I had to spray a lot to get anything.

Will I buy again?
No, I know there is other products that do add volume

Beauty buys of December

I haven't done one of these written posts for a little while as I wasn't really buy too many products to warrant a post dedicated to what I had bought previously but when I sat there and put everything together I was a like oh there is a few bits here oops lol and nearly half are from Primark I just got a bit carried away. Primark are really impressing me at the moment a majority of the items were purchased when I was in London just before Christmas.

Marc Jacobs Daisy Love from £42
I will be doing a dedicated post (next week) to this so I won't go into too much detail but I absolutely love this such a beautiful scent.

Garnier botanical gel wash £3.49
This is my go to morning face wash, it just gently cleans your face. It's super handy that it's in a pump bottle even though it's a pump you are still able to get all the product out and it lasts super long!

I feel like in this post there is a lot of products I've actually loved and was sad to see that I had finished them but what a great way to start the new year on a positive note.

Jahaitian black castor oil leave in conditioner £5.99
Sometimes when I use a lot of heat on my hair it can sometimes feel dry so I try and put some kind of leave in conditioner. When I use this it makes my hair feel so soft and I always concentrate on my ends as they are the most damaged especially where I colour my hair too.

Would I buy again?
Yes, a little goes a long way

Empties of 2018 Part 6

It feels like I haven't done one of these for a little while but it was only last month maybe earlier in the month? Anyway here is some of the products I've finished lately, I am excited to do my next one as there is some products I just love that are included.

Hawaiian Tropic Island Berry lipgloss

This has summer written all over it, it's so amazing and smells lovely. It is very moisturising as I find I use this more in the summer as it's got a little gloss and keeps my lips soft. Sometimes I even apply a little of it over a lipstick just for a bit of shine to it.

Would I buy again?

Yes, I bought a two pack from Amazon!

I cannot believe that it is October already like seriously where has this year gone? The mornings are colder and I'm often popping to Costa before work and buy a chai latte to try keep my hands a bit warmer! Anyway back to the post I've made a pact to myself that I must start using the products I already have before I buy new ones hence why lately you will see these kind of posts every month or so.

Garnier fresh clarifying wash

I was very happy with this face wash, it wasn't heavy it was just right and when ever I used it my skin felt clean and it was designed to be used for combination to oily skin.

Would I buy again?

Yes, I would if they didn't discontinue it but I've found another Garnier face wash instead

Some more empty products to review yay!! I love reading posts or watching YouTube videos on empty products and I love giving my opinion on what products I felt that worked and maybe not so much. A few months ago I wrote my first empties post, click here and with the amount of empty products I have (a big bag full) this will become a regular thing.

Here is a handful picked at random and most I enjoyed using, a couple not so much but it's all about trying new products to see what you like right?

On a quick note how is it Wednesday already? Officially half way through the week, we can make it!

My recent beauty buys

It's been a while since I done one of these kind of posts, unfortunately I just haven't been buying loads of beauty products to do a haul like post. Over the last month or so I've bought a few things, some which were repurchases and some new. I kind of forgot how much I love shopping for anything beauty related but not how much money I would spend!

See what new products I've bough and what products I've repurchased....

10,000 page view give away!!

Oh wow I've had 10,000 page views! This is something so big for me I didn't think I would still be doing this. I started it back in April 2014 as a bit of fun and something new as I've never done anything like this before. It took a lot of thinking and planning but I can honestly say I love blogging. If i'm not working then I am always thinking of new posts to write or when I'm shopping what to buy or what products are out there for me to try.

Anyway getting to the point I decided few weeks ago when I see I was getting close to 10,000 views that I would do a beauty give away. I am giving the chance for one lucky person to have all these little goodies belwo. This is my first ever give away and I am so excited.

The lucky winner chosen at random will win:

NYX Dewy finishing spray

Revlon volume + length mascara

L'Oreal Collection exclusive lipstick by J.Lo

Mini Garnier Micellar cleansing water (this is my favourite)

Glitter compact mirror

Collection speedy highlighter
