Schwarzkopf got2b beach matt salt spray



I got this because I wanted the mermaid looking hair! Who doesn't? There was a few sea salt sprays to choose from and I wasnt too sure which one to pick but I chose this one as I see it advertised a lot and it was on offer. Plus the colours got me ;) You can get this is Boots for about £4.07 the 7p is a bit random!

This is meant to give you 'beach waves-mermaid style' and provide your hair with texture and a tousled finish without the crunch. You spray this on to dry or towel dry hair then scrunch or blow dry. I have tried this on both dry and towel dry hair and prefer the look it gives once I have applied it to towel dried hair.

 I was expecting great results from this but to be honest its just ok to me, I cant say it wows me. I have fairly long hair which is also thick and I think thats why I dont quite get the waves I want from this. The other downfall I am not keen on is that it does tangle my hair and hurts when I brush out even when using a tangle teezer!

It doesnt leave a crunch which is good and the little bit of look I can get from the spray does stay all day. All in all I probably wouldnt purchase this again but only because I dont think its suited towards my hair.

Have you tried any good seal salt sprays?

Soap and Glory






Boots Soap and Glory are one of my favourite products at the moment. Just a teeny weeny bit obsessed! From their make up to their skin care. The scents of these products are just crazy good!

I bought myself some new body washes and body milk to try. I have tried their shower gel and love it and so I thought I would try the Sugar Crush, Smoothie Star and Foamous after hearing such good things about them. Especially the scent of Sugar Crush!

Sugar Crush:

When I first smelt this I wasnt too sure about it ,the scent reminded me of something but couldnt think what it was. I read the back and it said it had Lime in and that was when my brainwave occurred,  its  Lime Emma! I dont think I was having the brightest day that day lol.  After using this I actually love the scent now and its a gorgeous scrub! My sister however hates the smell... maybe its not for everyone. It contains Lime, Coolcapsule, Kiwi Juice water and a skin softening Omega rich veggie oil.

Smoothie Star Body Milk:

This smells alot like Foamous and again following on from what I just said my sister is also not a fan of the smells of this and the Foamous! However I love the smell of these as they have Almond in. It contains Almonds, Cocoa, Yoghurt, Oat and Honey. I love that this is in a pump bottle because I find with tubs I pick up too much. It doesnt feel greasy on the skin and absorbs well leaving a nice scent!

Foamus:

This contains Almons, Oats and Brown sugar. It has a similar sent to Smoothie Star Body Milk so is great to use before applying the body milk after a shower.  I have to say though I do prefer the Sugar Crush to this.

I dont think I will ever find products that smell as good as Soap and Glory and I love how Soap and Glory will always put on the products that you cant eat them because they really do smell that good!

Have you tried these?

Boots Christmas Wish List

As you can tell Christmas is on my mind already and I cant wait! Here is only a few and I mean few lol of some of the items I wouldnt mind getting from the Boots Christmas range.

1.  Gok Unwind and Relax Collection - £20.00
I have recently done a post on one of Gok Wans range which was my Gok Shower scrub review which if you havent read is me telling everyone how much I love his products and how each year I always will receive something from his range. This year I would love to receive the Unwind and Relax Collection. This contains Shower cap, Body wash, Shower Scrub, Body lotion, Bath Essence and Body Butter.

2. Chanel Perfume £66.50
This is one of my all time favourite perfumes and I am running low! I love the smell of this and it is quite a strong smell but thats what I like as I am not really a big lover of the fruity smells.

3. Soap and Glory Bubbly Fruitgo Gift Set £10.00
The smell of Soap and Glory is just amazing! This mini set contains Body Wash, Body Cream, Body Scrub, Hand Cream and Body Polisher.

4. Smashbox Wondervision Mega Palette £49.00
This is quite an expensive item but it looks absolutely gorgeous! It has 30 eye shadows, 4 Blushes and get the look cards.

5. Origins Mask Marvels Set £25.00
I havent tried an Origins product yet but I really want to and the masks is one of the things I would like to try so this would be great! It has the Clear Improvement Active Charcoal Mask, Drink Up Intensive Overnight Hydrating mask and Drink Up Intensive 10 Minute Hydrating Mask.

6. Soap and Glory Loved and Glossed Set £16.00
I love Lip products and these look like nice colours which are Nudist Lip shine, Fuschia Ripstick Lip Shine and Plum Jam Lip Shine.

So there are just a few bits on my Christmas Wish List this year from Boots!

Whats on yours?

Gorgeous by Gok




Its coming up to Chistmas!!! :) my favourite time of the year even if its when all my friends and familys birthdays are! I thought I would do a quick post on on of my favourite things I look forward to at Christmas which is the Gok range at Boots.

I absolutely love his range and every year I will receive something from his collection for Christmas from the parents :).

Last year I got the Gorgeous Gok shower scrub in the wash bag set, I really wanted that particular set because of the bag, it comes in very handy and is a great size for when I am away.

Gok does change some of his products each year and this was a new one in the set. 

I love this shower scrub! It smells really lovely with the Almond Oil and it just feels really great and leaves the skin feeling smooth and smelling Gorgeous! I find that Goks products never fail to smell amazing though! The first thing I look at on the Boots website at Christmas is the Goks range and I already have my eyes on a few items ;) .

Its just a shame that you cant buy these all year round.

Anyone got their eyes on any Christmas Gift sets?
