John Frieda and new hair!

21 Mar

I’ve just had my hair cut and then subsequently dyed it. I was desperate to have it cut because it was in such dreadful condition. I want to avoid letting it get back to the scraggly state it was in. So I’ve been looking into it and John Frieda Full Repair products seem to be the way to go.

The Perfect Ends Deep Infusion seems to be the best remedy and preventative for my split end situation. I want to keep dying my hair but the trade off is dry, damaged ends. This is what makes it look scraggly. I don’t tend to heat style my hair, it looks to flat when straightened and I get a good amount of volume and curl if I leave it to air dry. (Plus I’m lazy and have a crap hair dryer.)

Take a look at the John Frieda website for further information on the range.

 

FOTD: A natural makeup look

20 Sep

I haven’t done a face of the day post in ages. I don’t wear makeup to work usually so these have been few and far between. I went out the other day and decided to try something a little more simple and natural using some products I’d been sent.

  • Foundation: New Clinique Repairwear Laser Focus All-smooth Foundation with SPF 15 – c/o Clinique
  • Eyeliner: Collection 2000 black liquid eyeliner
  • Mascara: No 7 Exquisite Curl
  • Blusher: Benefit
What do you think of this look? It’s not my usual style. I’m usually a bit more about the lipstick and heavy eye makeup. I think I definitely need lippie. Maybe just a lip gloss.

Race weekend lookbook

5 Sep

Last weekend I jetted (Eurostarred) off to Belgium to experience the noise and hills of the Belgian Grand Prix. I bought Team Lotus Merchandise and wore it with stuff that didn’t necessarily match. Here are a few (hundred) photos from the weekend.

My trusty Collection 2000 lipstick. I have to say, red lips look amazing with the Team Lotus green.

I said to myself I wouldn’t post too many pics of the cars because technically they are irrelevant to this site. However, you can see all the pics over at my Flickr.
