Babyliss Soft Waves

After reading blog posts and seeing a lot of videos using these Babyliss Soft Waves I had to have them! I have tried numerous curlers etc to get the wave that I want but they are either to tight a curl or dont don anything.

I am loving these!! They give that soft beachy wave that I have been after for so long!!

They are easy to use, heat up in seconds and the finished effect is perfect for me.

I bought these from Boots for £29.99 which I think is a great price for something that can do my hair in five minutes

Sun-Believable Tan Accelerator

I dont know about you but when it gets to this time of the year and when we do get a bit of sunshine I like to get in the garden for a bit.. 

I have always looked for products that helps you tan quicker hence not needing to sit out as long...  Yes I do wear sunscreen as I do believe its important to protect your skin but I think if you like to sit out  like I do - and you do it sensibly then thats fine.

Anyway on to the product! I seen this on QVCUK recently where Leighton Denny(nail expert) was demonstrating this.. as a sucker for tan accelerators I thought I should give it a go.

Now, I have used other Tan accelerators in the past including Gatineau, Elemis etc and while they are good products in themselves - this beats them all hands down!!

I cant believe how much this product amazes me!! It just works! It says to use approx 10 days before your holiday but if your not going on holiday like me then I just use it everyday instead of body lotion. The gel like texture sinks straight in and its dry to touch in just a few minutes.

This product makes me tan so quick I cant quite believe it myself! my arms have gone so dark and my legs! well what can I say, my legs never tan and I have a tan line just below the knee from just one day sitting out for a short time!! I have never had that before ever! they usually never change at all.

I use this on a night time too before bed but it does say use after the sun as a after sun too.

The bottle I got is only 100ml for £11 so doesnt last long but I know he launched a massive pump bottle on QVCUK so will probably get that when Its back in stuff as I really dont want to be without this throughout the summer.

Anyone else tried it?

I didn't buy mine off QVC I got mine from Amazon as wanted it delivering quicker.

Caudalie Divine Legs..

So after seeing a lot of rave reviews on the Caudalie Divine Legs and being a sucker for anything that makes me look tanned then it was something I had to try!!

I didn't want to pay for a full size bottle straight away until I seen what it was like but when I seen that Beauty Expert do samples for 3 pound with free delivery there was no thinking about it!

So today this little sample arrived and I could wait to rip it open and slather it on..

OMG this stuff is amazing!!! I was expecting to be like a oil but its actually a lot thicker and a little does spread.

So am I going to order a full size bottle!! too right I am.

Love the stuff already - this is definitely a summer staple

The picture shows it on my arm as didn't fancy showing my legs lol.

Rodial Brazillian Tan

So whilst recently shopping in Sainsburys I couldnt resist popping over to the magazine section to see what freebies were in the Magazines!! Im a bit of a sucker for it actually!

Anyway what jumped out at me was this free Rodial Tan with the Elle magazine! I have always wanted to try Rodial products.  Now let me be honest and say I don't ever buy the Elle Magazine and probably wont buy it again as its not my cup of tea but for the purpose of wanting the tan I didn't hesitate!

So I chose the one with the light tan in - I think you can get Dark and Clear as well but I need a guide colour and didn't want to be Super dark so thought the light would be the best option for me.

You get a 58ml in here which I think is good for a freebie!

This comes out like caramel!! it smells sooo good - could even go as far as saying it is my favourite smelling tan ever and I have used a lot. I actually cant stop smelling it! 

What I like most is a little goes a long way and it blends so easy! 

It says it takes up to 4 hours to develop.

 WOW the colour is amazing, its quite a deepish colour for me considering it was the Light version. I love it so much. The results are even, the colour is beautiful and not a tinge of orange in it, all thats to do is wait and see how long it lasts now.

I would definitely invest in the Elle magazine while you can if you are thinking of trying this tan.

There is also a offer in the magazine that if you buy anything from Rodial you can claim 20% off

Have you tried this product? do you use any other Rodial products that you recommend?

Nakd Bars

First post is going to be on Nakd products - not that kind of naked!!

I have heard a lot on health bars lately and thought I would give them a try one day! Well yesterday whilst shopping, I was at the checkout and what was staring me in the face but this Nakd Bar in Cocoa Delight -I  couldnt walk out without picking one up to try and hey at least its better than picking up a normal chocolate bar right??

So here it is -

So the first thing that hits you is the smell!! it smells so rich and chocolately - its good!!

I was expecting it to be like a cereal bar but its not - its looks like a cake bar but it doesn't taste like one, it soft and bendy consistency is very appealing and makes me want to eat it quick!! 

It actually tastes good!! I didn't expect it to taste as nice as it does with it being a health bar but it does.

I would eat one of these mid morning when I was feeling the hunger kick in..

There are a lot of flavours to choose from and you can buy them in boxes with multiple in so you dont run out - check it out here http://www.naturalbalancefoods.co.uk/nakd/

I have heard the chocolate orange ones are good so will look out for this one next..

Thanks for reading :)
