July Favourites.

The first of this months favourites is taken from my previous MAC post. MACs Mineralize Skinfinish in Lightscapade. Pop over to that post to read more about it! :)

The next one is a new make up brush I purchased to use with the new highlighting powder just mentioned! For my highlighter I use a Crown Contour Brush as mentioned before. However as I now have 2 highlighters to go between during the week I didn't want to have to wash the brush each time I used a different one.

I picked up this one by Seventeen from boots for a BARGAIN £2.99! I'm pretty sure no brush in my collection is as cheap as this & I brought it totally on a whim. I thought for that price, it isn't going to be excellent. If I'm honest, the only reason I brought it was because the Real Techniques Setting Brush I had my eye on to use with this product was out of stock. Now i'm so glad it was, saving myself a good few £££!

Its super super soft & excellent quality. Maybe as good as my real techniques, and is definitely better than a few MAC ones I own! 

I also love the cute packaging and love the colours and writing on the brush! Really recommend. I may have to purchase other brushes from this collection. 

I'm a big Body Shop & Handcream fan. So put the 2 together, and The Body Shops hand creams are amazing. I love their packaging as it makes it super easy to ensure you get every last bit of product! I've gotten through 4 already, and have these left in my collection to get through & probably purchase more!

They are super non-greasy and soak into the hands within seconds leaving no residue. They also smell incredible! They are the perfect size for any handbag & also fit into my apron at work. 

The next is something I was sent free from Feel Unique. This is the REDKEN Diamond Oil. I've been loving the traditional and well loved by many Moroccan Oil. I've been using REDKEN shampoo and condition for a good few years now, so as I was sent this I thought I may as well give it a go!

The bottle is so heavy and so glamourous. Its very good quality packaging and is all glass. The product itself doesn't smell as nice as Moroccan Oil, in fact it has little smell at all. I apply around 4-5 drops in the end of my hair before blowdrying and it keeps my hair super soft and shiny. 

Lastly is a moisturiser. This is the Nivea Firming Body Moisturiser. Its very rich and leaves my skin feeling very soft. It absorbs quickly which is good for any moisturiser as I hate feeling sticky and wet.

It is a firming moisturiser which is the reason I brought it before a recent holiday. It really did make my skin feel firmer and tighter within the 2 weeks which it claims to do. I've been using an after sun lately as i've been on holiday & i've defiantly noticed a difference since I stopped using this and I can't wait to start using it again.

HairBurst Review.

So not all of us are blessed with naturally long gorgeous thick hair - unfortunately. I definitely fall into this category! I have naturally fair hair, but maintain the colour with highlights 2-3 times a year ensuring I keep super blonde! When I found out about hairburst last year, I was super excited and believed its every girls dream in a bottle. For the life of me, I cannot remember the first time I purchased hairburst, but it was in the summer of 2014. Initially, I purchased just one bottle as it isn't cheap (£25 per bottle + approx £3 delivery!) making it a pricey little vitamin. Not that that has put me off spending a lot more money on them!
Since i've purchased 2 lots of their '3' bottle deal when you end up saving a little money in the long run. I absolutely love it, and although my hair hasn't grown down to my backside (dreaming!) it definitely improves my hair condition and has 100% improved the growth of my hair. Within the first 2 months my hair definitely grew over an inch, and for hair that takes a long time to grow, I was very chuffed. Almost a year on, and i'm still really in love with this product.
As mentioned in previous posts, I do not have acne prone skin, however I did have a serious breakout last year, and I strongly believe that these have really helped the condition of my skin as well as my hair. My nails also grow stupidly quick, which again i'm certain is down to these beauties.

Effects notice when not taking. 
Hair feels finer than it already is.
Nails tend to break and split.
Hair appears damaged quicker.
Hair is softer.
Skin is more prone to breakouts. 

So all in all, a year later my hair has grown the longest it has ever been, and is also in pretty good condition which i'm very proud with!
I'd highly recommend this product, with its only downside being that I need my hair highlighted more often due to the amount of re-growth super quickly! 

What are your experiences with hairburst?

Or do you have any other hair saviours?
