Batiste Dry Shampoo Review

Batiste Dry Shampoo with a hint of colour for light and blonde hair...

Being blonde myself i've been meaning to review this product for a while. The product is supposed to instantly refresh hair on those days where you simply don't have enough time to shampoo. Unlike their other products this specific hair treatment is for blonde hair, and has a hint of colour to reduce the white powdery substance often left after use. After using the product- until the very last drop- I have decided that it is simply amazing! It does exactly what it says, refreshes and cleans without leaving a white layer on your hair. I'd recommend this product to any other blondes looking for a quick and easy dry shampoo for those rushed mornings.

K's Christmas Bundle

Hey Guys! We're so sorry that we haven't posted in a while, but i've been completely overloaded with university work and S has been busy getting promoted!! So here's a short but sweet post to keep you up-to-date on a few of my favourite Christmas presents...

So my presents started a little before Christmas day when my parents decided to surprise me with Ice Skating tickets to the Somerset House Skate Rink ! It was amazing, and as it was sponsored by Fortnum & Mason the nibbles and hot chocolate were amazing!

Here's one I got in my santa sack: Benefit's How to Look Good at Everything! It's great and allows you to achieve that flawless complexion everyone's dying for. It includes Pore Professional, Hello Flawles, Boi-ing and 'I Love Me' Ivory

Here are another two for the makeup bag! Benefit's Stay Flawless Primer (and when it says 15-hour is means it!) and my much awaited concealer brush from Mac

As many of you may remember I worked for House of Holland over the Summer and here are some of their adorable Christmas nails which I styled out for the festive period.

Last but not least is my Olivia Burton watch. I've been looking at these for a few months now and was ecstatic when I opened up the box to find i'd been gifted my favourite model! 

Hope you guys liked my Christmas Bundle! I'll be sure to not leave it quite so long before writing a new post.

K's Christmas Wishlist

Christmas is only 5 weeks away! And along with this celebration of festivities comes the dread of christmas gift buying. I luckily have just started my gift purchasing with only a few more presents left to buy. But for anyone wondering what I would like this Christmas here's a few ideas..... 

1. Boi-ing by Benefit- I'm itching to try this flawless concealer 

2. eos - These lip balms are a great stocking filler

3. I'm dying for a pineapple phone case! These can be found on Asos or Etsy

4. Barbarells by Nars- This lipstick is a beautiful peach/nude shade

5. A winter Coat- My favourites are currently from Asos, Warehouse and Topshop

6. Simple Makeup Bag- This is currently going for £10 on Asos!

7. New Balance trainers- Whilst all the other fashion bloggers had a pair of these babies in August, I still haven't managed to buy a pair for myself !

So there's a few of my must-haves for this Christmas :)
