Hero Beauty Products Whilst in Thailand

OK guys I swear this will be (most probably) my last post about Thailand. I thought you would find this interesting though. I wanted to give you a little insight into what were the HERO products that I used religiously whilst I spent 10 glorious days in Thailand.

The first product is by Sunfx Body Wash $10.95, as I was fake tanned throughout the entire trip it was really important to use a body wash specific for when you are fake tanning. When you are on a tropical holiday the chlorine and salt water alone can fade your tan so the last thing you want is your soap to do the same as well. What I particularily LOVED about this product is that it smells of coconuts which was perfect for the amazing holiday I had, an absolute must for Summer. 


The next product I was loving was the KMS California Sol Perfection All Day Defense Protection 24 hour. This product will also be a fave in the coming Summer as it is like sunscreen for your hair. We are all getting better at applying sunscreen to our bodies and our faces but I think a lot of us forget about our hair. This product couldn't be easier to use, I sprayed it on my hair first thing before hopping out into the sun whether my hair was wet or dry as I knew I would be swimming and the like so it wouldn't matter. It is also great to help detangle your hair and contains wonder ingredients such as grapefruit and thyme.

 The next product I want to mention is the Shampoo and Conditioner I was using the L'Oreal Professional Expert Shine Blonde Ceraflash -$25. As any fellow blondes will know (as I have recently got ballayage in my hair I put myself in this category) you need to protect it. Chlorine and sun damage can totally change the colour you originally wanted. What my amazing hairdresser recommended was getting a silver shampoo. The silver shampoo neutralise the brasiness which can occur and prevents it from fading. The "silver" shampoo is actually purple colour and I really enjoyed using both whilst I was away. The bottles are quite small and are expensive and are $25 each it worked well for me when I was travelling as I didn't want to take big bottles away but I might not buy again until Summer when I need that protection again.

There are a lot more products I want to talk about but I like them so much I think they deserve their own posts.

Have you tried any of these products before?

March Empties

So I know soooooooo many beauty bloggers do a "Empties" post and I thought it would make sense to do one too. For me, I love reading them as it really lets me know what products bloggers "really" love, as they love them enough to use the entire thing.
So this is my empties for the month of March:

-Grown organic vanilla and orange peel hand cream- $24my goodness I love this, smells divine and makes my hands super soft, I particularily like to slather it on my mitts before I go to bed.
-L'Oreal ever pure shampoo and conditioner-$14.95 each one of the cheapest and best I have used in a long time. My hair is so bouncy and vibrant from using them!
-Arbonne translucent loose setting powder- my fave translucent powder to set my makeup and make it last all day long
-Dermalogica special cleansing gel- such a nice gentle cleanser which feels so nice on my skin and smells so relaxing
-Burt's Bees radiance eye creme- love this eye cream! My eyes feel so hydrated all day after using this eye creme and as you only need a tiny amount it lasts so long!
-Rexona hypo-allergenic body responsive deodrant- my go to deodrant that protects me all day long

If you have any questions about these products please let me know!

Review: L'Oreal Paris Hair Expertise Ever Pure Shampoo & Conditioner

I have recently been reviewing the new L'Oreal Paris Hair Expertise Ever Pure Shampoo & Conditioner-$14 each and I have been very impressed. I have never used L'Oreal hair products before and I was sceptical as this just wasn't a brand I had either heard about doing good or bad hair products and to me just wasn't a brand that was on my radar. 


That being said in the spirit of being a good blogger and open to suggestions and new expierences I gave these a try. I was drawn to the fact that they are sulfate free and suitable for vegans, love that!


The product I have been using is for coloured hair and is designed to not only protect your colour but also to smooth your hair. When I used the products the shampoo lathered well and the condititioner smells of mint, this is quite an unusal scent from a hair care product but I find it refreshing. When I rinsed it out I could already feel the softness in my hair. Oh my gosh the softness, wow, I normally would never get this kind of softness from a product this, well, cheap actually. I would normally only get these results from a salon brand. 2 days later and I am still stroking my hair like its a ridiculously soft bunny or some other kind of soft pet... I know that may sound weird but you haven't felt my hair. 

My hair is also very smooth and doesn't seem as fly away either. My hair smells so nice and clean too.


I will definetly be using these products again.



I hope you enjoy them as much as I have.

Matching Lipstick to your Hair colour? Sweet!

Since I am rocking the purple and bandana look today and since I actually have a tan today also I thought why not go all matchy matchy with a lippie too. 

I tried out the L'oreal range of Made for Me Intense a little while ago and I love it! This shade is called Sparkling Amethyst- 25.95 and is made for Brunettes like Moi!

The colour doesn't come out as intense as the pic of the actual lipstick you can see in the pic of my lippies below it is actually a bit pink with some purple. I never thought I would have been able to pull off a purple lippie but these guys at L'Oreal know their stuff and they know what will work with my hair colour. 

The actual lippie is very moisturising and the colour holds up well throughout the day, although I like to top it up as I like it bold, no point not making an impact and it really suits my outfit! 

I am really keen to find out what other kinds of lippie they think will suit me? Should totes check them out!
