The Bluebeards Revenge


Hey Guys

I go t sent this shaving cream a few weeks ago and as I'm being pretty slack with the posts on this blog, it's taken me a while to get this up.
Originally marketed towards men, this product had a rather surprising result - It wasn't the men lapping this product, it was in fact the ladies.
Funnily enough the product was designed for men with a hairy face and the product claims to reduce a man's stubble by 40% in a mere 60 days.
So the reason the ladies are lapping this up is in fact no surprise at all. We're always looking for new products to stay hairy leg free for longer.

Will let you know how I get on with this product.
If you want to find out more you can check it out here.

Review - Nails Inc


I love that magazines seem to be giving away more freebies now. If I didn't already buy like 20 magazines a week, it would definitely make me gravitate towards the magazine with said freebie. I'm a sucker for nail varnish freebies, especially when the magazine collaborate with Nails Inc. I think that this brand is by far the best nail varnish their is on offer. Would be nice of they dropped the price a bit, then I might actually spend my dinero on the product instead of waiting until the next freebie. The magazine in question is Glamour and it is in the December issue. I think their are 4 colours available, but I think this colour is by far the best. It's called Savile Row and comes out the most amazing deep purple.
I think I may just buy up all 4!
*Could I have said the word freebie anymore in this post? HA

Review - Batiste Gold Shimmer


I am a huge fan of anything sparkly or shimmery, so when I spotted this I instantly swiped it and put it in my basket.

The smell reminded me of my teenage years, as my sister pointed out it smelt like Spice Girls Impulse body spray. Now that does take me back, like a whole decade. woops.
I couldn't wait to use it and did so on Friday night at the Aussie Take The Heat launch. I really didn't realise how much glitter would come out when sprayed, but I can tell you its a whole lot. If you still live with your parents, then let them know and ask what room would be ok to use this. Also spray it before you put your clothes one. It's like an exploding bomb - I kid you not. On the other hand I love a bit of glitter so I sprayed loads. I'm now covered in it and everyone that enters my rooms is too.

I wouldn't use this on a daily basis, but would be more than happy to for a night out with the girl or a christmas party.

Has anyone tried this?

Review - Aussie Hair Care - Take The Heat


As mentioned here, I received some Aussie hair care goodies a couple of weeks ago. It's like they read my mind - heat product related mind - I am always on the look out for something to save my bleached, heat damaged hair. Going back to brunette is literally not an option. I love being a blonde far too much. It's like a whole new me - well in the mirror anyway.
Also leaving my hair to dry naturally is not an option either. My hair is neither straight nor curly. It's the dreaded wavy, but not the beach curls wavy, yucky wavy.
Anyways back to the point. I have been using these products over the last few weeks and not to sound predictable, they actually seem to work. My hair is smoother, i'v had less breakage and the colour has stayed (If you a chemically treated blonde you will appreciate how hard it is to keep the colour)
I also steer away from putting too much product in the hair as it tends to weigh your hair down and leave it looking like it just needs a good wash, but with these products, even the cream, it's like their is nothing there. Not to mention the fab smell that lingers all day.
So all in on, I would rate this as a 5 star product!

Review of online store - Beauty Basket


Image via WeHeartIt

Exactly 2 weeks and a few days ago..............I ordered some makeup from an online store called Beauty Basket. I had heard great reviews about this shops service and most importantly their prices.
That being said, the service was awful, but the prices were still cheaper than everywhere else.

I ordered my products (BareMinerals) on Oct 17th and they turned up today on Nov 4th (Pretty awful if you ask me).
Their website states that if you order something it will be dispatched within 2 days unless the order isn't in stock at that time, in which case you will be informed via email. 10 days later..............I received no email to inform me of such a thing.

I emailed asking why I wasn't informed of this - as I would have gone somewhere else as I was in desperate need of make up - I had no response. I emailed again................no response. So of course I emailed again...........still no response. However after 3rd email I did receive an email saying 'Item DISPATCHED!' Better late than never, but an apology would have been nice. Infact if they had apologised I probably wouldn't be writing this post.

So their you have it - if you use this site be prepared to wait ages!
