Good morning beautiful!

Today I'm talking about a brand that I hadn't heard of before today, but recently noticed their products and reputation growing swiftly.

I've never been the biggest fan of dry shampoo only due to mixed results.  Most brunnettes will know what I'm talking about when I say that certain brands can leave interesting residues in your hair or white marks - which makes you look like a granny!  And that is definitely not the look I was aiming for this morning.  I've enjoyed using Batiste Dry Shampoo - essentially they are really delicious smelling and most of their products work well enough.

But today I'm here to talk about Principessa Beauty! 

Principessa Beauty is a collection of hair & bath accessories in classic fragrances with each product created in a luxurious and feminine feel. With an irresistible collection of spa quality, all-natural products, the Principessa Beauty collection is pampering, indulgent and a reflection of the most beautiful things in life.

I love Principessa Beauty’s Bianco Breeze dry shampoo. It’s perfect to sprinkle into your hair to extend your blow-dry and get that full volume feel with no wash needed. It magically blends into your roots and removes any excess oils. Plus, you can also sprinkle this multi-use fragrant powder on your body to get that shower fresh feeling all day. Available in full size and mini size for girls on the go.

These powders are available for light and dark coloured hair and retail between £12.50 to £25.

Have an amazing weekend!

 

Festival Chic

Okay, so everyone is getting ready for festivals right now and why should they be??  It is the season to enjoy the great British weather and also have fun and listen to great artists!  My favourite festival has to be Global Gathering but sadly I shall not be going this year!

To mark this auspicious occasion I have gone on a journey of shopping to various cheaper shops to bring you cheap little basics to get for the festival season!

Firstly I popped into Home Bargains.  Now not everyone will have one of these handy, but luckily mine is just around the corner and sell some really great beauty products for a small price.

My hot pick is these Girls Aloud Festival Lashes!  I picked two pairs up including Kimberly and Sarah for 99p each!  Now these lashes retail between £4 and £5.99 else where but is a truly great bargain for only 99p at both Savers and Home Bargains!  They have the other lashes in stock too, I just didn't notice the Nicola Roberts ones however stocks could be dependant on availability.

My second big find was Batiste Dry Shampoo, and I bought two lots.  Blush and Tropical both have really nice subtle smells that leave your hair feeling and smelling great!  I picked these up for a very nice £1.29 at Home Bargains but have since found that Savers are selling these for £1 each!  They have a variety of these in store!  Great for festivals to leave your hair clean even when you have no shampoo on hand!

 I also managed to pick up this Charles Worthington Take Aways Stay Smooth spray!  It was only 99p from Home Bargains and is great at festivals for wind swept hair!  Keep those locks smooth and shiny :)

There are loads of other great little products dotted around the store, you just need to check it out!  Home Bargains also sell baby wipes for 99p, which would be great for festivals!  And they are so cheap with their face wipes and have great brands available to buy.

Superdrug are also currently doing some great offers like 2 Barry M Nail polishes for £6 as well as 50 bonus points on your Superdrug Beauty Card.  The beauty card offers customers the chance to shop at Superdrug whilst collecting a lovely 10 points per £1 spent in store.  The card also doubles up as a small mirror in your handbag.  There are also loads of offers on in-store for extra points like spending £15 on L'Oreal and earning a hefty 150 extra points.  Superdrug are also currently running some great offers on travel mini so check those out for the festivals.

Every festival-ready girl needs a good pair of Wellies considering what the British weather is always like!  These Hunter wellies are created in great colours and very sturdy.  They retail at approximately £64.99 and are available all across the internet and good camping stores!

Go forth and headbang I say!  :)
