Windle & Moodie Intense Treatment Masque*

Windle & Moodie Intense Treatment Masque

It’s T-minus six days until I get my hair done (yay!) and in the run up to my appointment, I’ve been adding Windle & Moodie’s Intense Treatment Masque to my hair care routine. Since my hair is in need of a trim, it’s been feeling a bit dry and scratchy, so the addition of something so nourishing has been much needed!

Windle & Moodie Intense Treatment Masque 1

Packaged in a sleek white tub, complete with 80’s style glamazon on the lid, Windle & Moodie’s Intensive Treatment Masque is just the thing if your ends are in need of a little TLC. The formula is packed with green tea, active antioxidants, and cocoa butter to nourish, detangle and boost shine to over worked ends.

Windle & Moodie Intense Treatment Masque 2

Once or twice a week, or really whenever my hair has been feeling a bit stressed, I use a couple of finger-fulls, and comb it through my ends. I then let it sit for a good 10-15 minutes to really let my hair soak up the goodness, and rinse as normal.

Windle & Moodie Intense Treatment Masque 3

I can’t tell you how soft and shiny my hair if after using the Intensive Treatment Masque. It really feels like a salon-worthy treatment, and I can’t wait to keep using it when my hair is back to blonde too! It smells so incredible and my hair can’t get enough of it!

Windle & Moodie Intensive Treatment Masque is priced at £29 and is available here

Touch of Silver Intensive Shine Treatment Shots*

Touch of Silver is one of those brands you wonder why you haven’t fallen in love with sooner! I use their purple shampoo incredibly regularly, as it cuts through brassiness in my hair, and leaves it super soft and shiny, so, when I saw that PRO:VOKE had released these dinky little shots, I couldn’t wait to give them a shot!

After shampooing as normal (btw the Touch of Silver shampoo smells incredible – like grape candy) I unwrapped one of the vials and got to work. You use the shot instead of your regular conditioner, and I smoothed it from root to tip. The shot has a super light texture, and Felt like it really sank in whilst I got down to business in the shower. After leaving it in for a good ten minutes, I hosed my hair down like normal, and got to work styling my hair like normal.

Although the shot doesn’t smell quite as awesome as the other Touch of Silver products I’ve tried, it really did make a noticeable difference to my hair – it felt really soft, and was far shinier than before. These are such a great, and affordable addition to your haircare regime, you have to check them out, no matter what hair colour you are!

The shots are priced at £6.99 and are available here.

Gift Guide: Philip Kingsley Geranium & Neroli Elasticizer Stocking Filler*

If you’re anything like me, this time of year takes a serious toll on your hair. In addition to my daily styling, when I’m heading out in the evenings, I like to touch up, usually re-straightening my ends.

So, since my hair gets enough abuse as it is, I’ve been turning to these adorable little of tubes of Philip Kingsley’s iconic Elasticizer. Normally I use the treatment once a week, but since my hair has been getting a bit of a battering, I’ve upped it to twice a week. Like the original treatment, I wet my hair, then comb the Elasticizer through my lengths and ends. I then pop it up into a top knot under a shower cap and let it get to work for a good 20 minutes. The Geranium & Neroli smell absolutely heavenly, and makes the treatment feel extra special to use. Once I’ve left it on for the 20 minutes, I just shampoo and condition as normal. I cannot tell you how much of a difference it makes! My hair really smoothes down, feels silky soft, and gets really shiny!

You can get a set of three duos here for £33.00

Glossybox September 2015*

Glossybox September 2015 UK

I’m always pretty surprised when my Glossybox is delivered – the months just seem to be flying by, so to get the September box through the letter box was an awesome surprise!

Glossybox September 2015 UK contents

Presented as a special ‘Style Edition’ I think this box has to be my favourite ever! From the gorgeous watercolour-esque box to the thoughtfully curated contents, this is the absolute definition of perfection!

Maria Nila Luminous Colour Masque

Maria Nila’s Luminous Colour Masque was the product which first caught my eye – the full size pink tub is absolutely gorgeous, and I’ve been aching to get my hands on some Maria Nila goodies for a while.

Maria Nila Luminous Colour Masque 1

Designed to protect your colour, as well as to rehydrate and strengthen ends, this is one seriously yummy smelling conditioner! Made with 100% vegan ingredients, I love the rich, thick texture of the masque, and I can’t wait to try it out this morning at the gym!

The box’s second hair-related offering is a box of pearlised white Invisibobbles. If you’ve read my blog for a while (and I hope you have!) you’ll know that I’m obsessed with these little gems.

White Invisibobbles

They really keep my hair up and tidy without tugging or pulling, and I love the subtle colour. I’m already wearing one!

Marsk Eyeshadow brush

Considering I’m in the middle of buying myself new makeup brushes (a surprisingly pricey endeavour!) I was thrilled to see Marsk’s Eyeshadow Brush Pro.

The acrylic bristles feel super soft, and they pick up a great amount of colour. This has gone straight into my everyday makeup box!

Bellapierre

The little pot of Bellapierre’s Shimmer Powder is absolutely adorable. The cool toned grey sparkles feel really perfect for the coming Autumn, and I can’t wait to try it out as part of my next smoky eye look!

Bellapierre swatch

Like all Bellapierre cosmetics, it’s a mineral formula, which is just great for sensitive skin!

Nails Inc Battersea Park

Last up, but certainly not least, is a bottle of Nails Inc Battersea Park. One of two available shades (the other is a dusky rose) I am absolutely obsessed with the cool toned khaki shade. It feels super current, and is a great way to wear amplified neutral nails!

Nails Inc Battersea Park swatch

The formula of Battersea Park is absolutely dreamy – thick enough to have full coverage in a single coat, the colour applied smoothly and evenly, and I’ve already lined it up for my next manicure!

As you can probably tell, I’m head over heels for this month’s box. You can subscribe to Glossybox for £10 (+ P&P) here

Jo Hansford Platinum Shampoo and Conditioner*

Jo Hansford Platinum Shampoo & Conditioner

As much as I love being a blonde, it can be quite a lot of upkeep! From the 6-weekly highlights, to conditioning treatments and oils and everything in between, blonde has never been an easy option. Thankfully though, dry and brassy hair isn’t something I need to even think about thanks to my new discovery of Jo Hansford’s Platinum Shampoo and Conditioner.

Jo Hansford Platinum shampoo

Just in case you haven’t heard of Jo Hansford, she is one of the world’s greatest colourists. Operating from her beautiful Mayfair salon, she’s highlighted everyone from Gwyneth Paltrow to Liberty Ross. Even if you can’t get through to London to have your colour done, you can take care of it with Jo Hansford’s incredible product range.

Jo Hansford Platinum conditioner

The Platinum Shampoo and Conditioner combo has been designed especially for blonde, highlighted and grey hair as the formula clarifies and brightens colour as well as removing any yellow tones which have built up. For some strange reason, my hair, no matter how blonde, always tends to err on the warm side, which is something I’m not a fan of, so the violet duo is something I can use a couple of times per week. It’s super simple to use – you just suds up as you would with your regular choice, but be warned, it’s seriously vibrant! I like to leave the shampoo in for a minute or two, just to let everything get to work. The shampoo foams up beautifully, and it smells absolutely incredible! The grapefruit fragrance is just the thing for waking me up in the morning, and the whole bathroom smells divine once I get out of the shower! The conditioner has a perfectly light texture which is great if you wash your hair daily like I do. Jo Hansford has incuded pomegranate oil to hydrate ends, and it works incredibly well to stop any discolouration. Once my hair has been blow dried, it feels super soft, and it’s lovely and shiny, even without my regular finish of serum. Most importantly though, my colour feels super fresh, and it really cools the tone down. There isn’t a hint of brassiness of warmth, and I feel salon fresh!

Jo Hansford’s Platinum Shampoo is priced at £16.00 and the Platinum Conditioner is priced at £18.00 and both are available here.
