Tousled/Wavy Hair?
Hello Lovelies,
So lets get on to the subject of hair in particular my hair, its very fine but theres a lot of it so its heavy, basically very straight and extremely flat to the point where obsessive back combing doesn't even help as I end up looking like a crazy woman, its so heavy it doesn't hold a curl at all. So without any help my hair just looks boring it give you a bit of an insight, if you watch the middle think of the girl in that is the the show 'The Middle' and thats exactly how my hair look without any 'poofing'(see picture below of the girl thats in the show 'The Middle')
Therefore I have been on a quest to find some hair products to give me that volume and lift that I desperately need. I have a wish list of products that I still want to try, however I think I may have found a product that could help my awful flat situation. I bought this product a few weeks ago and completely forgot about it. So one day I woke up late and was panicking about coming into work with horrible hair as I didn't have time to back comb or put up (neatly or at least nice looking). As I was sitting in front of my mirror, to the side I have a basket and there it was staring at me, Toni and Guy Sea Salt Spray which I picked up in boots on a 3 for 2 and looks like this..
I thought well I might as well give it a go as my hair couldn't get any worse than it already looking (bad bed head). To my surprise it made my hair tousled and wavy beachy/messy looking and just swishy if you catch my drift? The waves have stayed in all day and it wasn't very expensive, I am going to give it another go and will update you and keep you posted on the waves! However it has kept my hair smelling lovely the whole day and also has helped me gain a fair few compliments and what girl doesn't love a compliment? So far so good, but my dream end result would be;
Blake Lively Waves..
Achieving this would take a lot more than just some Toni and Guy Sea Salt Spray!

Hello Chickies!
So over the past couple of weeks I have had an array of work event/do's to go to and all have been reasonably formal and I have chosen all different kinds of dresses to wear which wasn't a problem as I am a planner and had my outfits planned months in advanced the problem was my nails! All the events have been fairly close together and I wouldn't have had the chance to do my usual nail routine of cuticles, buffing, filing and what not, therefore I have had to find a neutral nail polish and stick with it for a few days. As I searched through my little white basket of nails polishes I had very colour you could imagine, highlighter orange, lime green (do not know what I was thinking) and even some weird blacky gold. Finally I came across my old Nails Inc stash and I found an old favourite which I forgot about 'Nails Inc. - Elizabeth Street' then all the memories come flooding back to me, about when I used to work on the make up counters and my counter used to work for was next to the Nails Inc counter, I used to love Nails Inc although they are fairly pricey at £11 each however the forgotten nails polished at the bottom of the basket reignited that love. I love Nails Inc simply because of the names of the polishes, each polish is named after a famous place in London or landmark e.g. Thames, Camden or Black Taxi. I am in love with London and I feel very sentimental when using these polishes. Maybe thats weird but I cant help it I'M A LONDONER!
So back to my story of finding a lovely neutral for the work events and I found that in Nails Inc - Elizabeth street. Its looks very baby pink in the bottle but goes on the nails very 'my own nails but better' colour. It gives the nails a very natural looking shine and a healthy look, on its own or with a french manicure white tip. I felt a very sophisticated wearing the polish holding a topped up glass of champers and chatting work chat. If your looking for a nail polish to make your nails looked polished and effortless then this is definitely one for you. Whats your favourite natural polish?
Until Next Time,
Jess
