Afternoon lovelies, hope your enjoying your weekend. I've spent the last couple of days at my parents house and now I'm at my nephews 4th birthday party, we're having a Scooby Doo themed party.
I've had my hair dyed different colours for as long as I can remember, but the biggest problem I have is how dry and damaged it gets, so I try to treat it well whenever possible.
To help, I use a lot of shampoos which are aimed at coloured hair, and I was recently sent a shampoo and conditioner by Burts Bees.
Burts Bees Colour Keeper Green Tea & Fennel Seed Shampoo and Conditioner is a natural shampoo and conditioner which are sulphate free that help to neutralise elements that can damage the hair, as well as improving the vibrancy of coloured hair.
Considering its sulphate free the shampoo does foam up quite well, but I find that I get quite a lot of product build up after a few days and so I need to use a different shampoo to get rid of that. Also the consistency is very thin so I find myself using more then I should.
The smell is quite underwhelming so its not one that will linger over the course of the day which I quite like.
The contitioner is quite thick so it nourishes my hair well, but does take a lot of work to get washed out and its easy to not get it all out.
Overall I do like these, my hair has never been quite so lovely, and it leaves it very glossy which is nice.
You can get Burts Bees products from http://www.burtsbees.co.uk and http://www.feelunique.com where its priced between £8.50 - £9.99.
Have you ever tried any Burts Bees hair care?
Thanks for reading xx
Evening lovelies, hope your well and Thursday has been kind to you!
Recently the weather has really been wreaking havoc on my skin, it's blotchy and red, it's too dry or too oily, it really doesn't know what is going on! However my lips have never been in better condition and it's all thanks to Burts Bees!!!
I was recently sent some products to try, having never tried anything from the range I was super excited when I opened the parcel to find 4 products!! Two hair care products and two lip products, a review of the hair care will follow soon, I just want to test it out properly but I couldn't wait to show you the lip care products :)
I was sent the Ultra Conditioning Lip Balm and the Tinted Lip Balm in Red Dahlia. Both are made from 100% Natural ingredients and are super hydrating.
The Ultra Conditioning Lip Balm is living on my desk at work and I usually apply it when I get to school at 8 and then dont need to reapply it until break time, a good 3 hours later and it's more an application because I've licked it off after a much needed brew! My lips are usually so dry and flakey but this has really helped, and it's stopped my bad habit of picking at them when I'm stressed out!!
The Tinted Lip balm is 100% natural like the other one, but with a gorgeous red tint. The colour is a berry red which adds a nice stain to my lips that lasted for ages. The colour it is on your lips is very dependent on your natural lip pigment but people said it complimented my fair skin :)
Ingredients include Cocoa Butter, Kokum Butter and Shea Butter so if these three don't give you smooth supple lips then nothing will!
These retail for £3.69 for the lip balm and £5.99 for the tinted balm from Boots. I haven't seen these in my local store but they are available online so well worth a look! They are both hypo-allergenic as there are not artificial ingredients.
So what do you think? Have you used Burts Bees, if so is there anything else I need to try?
Thanks for reading xx
