Soap and Glory Peaches & Clean

Yay for good quality photos, finally. Let's all bow down to the queen of face perfection, Peaches & Clean. Well, Soap and Glory have done it again and bought out this perfect bottle of yummyness. This product is a facial cleanser but claims to be a 4-in-1 product. I'm not entirely sure what the other 3 benefits are...(conducts a quick google)...it says it's meant to 'oxidise' your skin, brighten and re-energise, and cleanse of course. During the rapid google search, I have found on the Soap and Glory website that the packaging of this product has been changed, and now it claims to only be a 3-in-1 product. Anyway, the 200ml bottle retails for a respectable £8 which I think is pretty cheap for a cleanser that has 100% worked for me. It smells gorgeous and peachy, brightens my skin, makes it baby soft and hasn't caused any break-outs! Hopefully I will get a skin-care routine up soon. But in the time being, I urge you to go pick up this cleanser, it is perfection in a bottle.

Bumble and Bumble Thickening Hairspray

Help me. This is literally the only product that I use on my hair on a day to day basis...and it was free!!! Good ol' Elle Magazine gave this bad boy out with their July issue I believe, it was before summer though (late review or what!). This spray does wonders to my hair and does exactly what it claims on the bottle. Spritz this through your hair before you dry it, then scrunch your hair up and physically 'push' volume into your roots whilst drying and your hair will look fantastically distressed. I don't entirely know how to explain the effects. Your hair does somewhat look thicker, but it adds aloooot more texture and volume to your hair. I definitely notice a difference to my hair when I don't wear it. This 50ml bottle retails for £7.50 at boots, and the 250ml bottle retails for around £21.

It's definitely on my christmas list.

A Twist on Tartan

Excuse the odd socks and my unflattering legs but I love these leggings, I am wearing them as we speak. They are from Matalan and were on the 2 for £12 section but I think they were £8 each. They're just comfy! Well, there's not much I can natter on about leggings so I'll leave it at that!

Dying my hair?

 Pretty crazy edits right? Yeah, I know they're terrible, my 'ribbit' skills don't develop very far...Basically, I really  want to dye my hair a crazy colour as I am bored witless of my dark hair. I've spent the past year ish trying to dye my hair lighter. Last summer my hair was a mahogany purpley colour, which only stayed in for around a month. But before that, my hair was almost black. A couple of weeks ago, I tried again and dyed it 'chocolate brown' in the hope that it would make my hair lighter...it made it darker still. I have recently been dying (get it? I'm punny) to ombre my hair. Eventhough I know that bleaching it would kill my ends, I think it would make my hair look like something rather than ordinary. My friend may be buying me a BLEACH Salon dip dye kit (here) for my birthday in order to persuade my mum to let me do it (good ol' teamwork). But I really like the idea of having pastel pink hair (this colour), I want mine like ohabioh on instagram (her youtube is here). Oh well, the school won't let me anyway.

Any help?!

Matte Red Nails

Gotta love iphone quality pictures right? I've had a sudden burst if excitement with matte nails again, I'm in love with them! I think they look so much more classy and finished. The red polish is Topshops War Paint with H&M matte top coat ontop.

Do you like matte nails?

Cutepolish Halloween Nails

I felt like I hadn't done any nail art for absolutely ages so I decided to crack out my stripers and dotters once again. Since Halloween is coming next week, I raided youtube for some simple Halloween tutorials. I stumbled across Cutepolish's trusty page and found this design in one of her videos (click here to watch the video). The design was actually really easy to reproduce judging by the fact that I haven't done any nail art in absolutely ages.

 I only needed about 8 polishes to do this design. I used : Topshop Peaches and Cream, Venus Fly Trap and War Paint, Rimmel Ultraviolet, Sinful Colours Snow me White and Black on Black. I also used my dotting tools (similar here) and nail art brushes (here) which I got from amazon, I also used a black striper that I got from 99p store a while back.

To be fair, I'm pretty happy with how my results turned out. Let me know if you try out this design by putting it on instagram and tagging me in the description (hannahtoughx).

Have a good week!
