My Favourites #2

This week is Hair Care! 

Hair Care is probably what I spend the most money on in regards to things other then makeup because I constantly convince myself I need new things to repair my hair and make it grow after some silly pre-teen mistakes! 

My mum once said 'its your hair, do whatever you want' so I took that to mean 'oh i dyed my hair dark brown, I'm sure it would be super easy to bleach that and go blonde now hey' so I let one of my friends buy a packet blonde mix and bleach my hair.. it went orange.. that was 3 years ago and I'm still paying the price because of hair that didn't grow well before that :( 

However, I have convinced my hair that its a good idea to start growing again, I haven't dyed it since before my year 12 formal (the 31st of october last year to be exact) and I have a fair bit of regrowth coming through which makes me want to do a happy dance! 

These are the products that I am currently using to try and keep my hair healthy and happy! 

(From left to right)

CPR Step 1 frizz control: I have mentioned this on my blog before in my haul post, and I'm showing it again because it is my holy grail. My hair is just frizz after I was it, especially if I blow dry it and this just makes it settle down and makes it controllable! I am working on getting the matching shampoo and conditioner and then my hairs life will be complete. This range also has a moisturising range which I'm planning on trying out next. 

TRESemme Keratin heat protectant: I use this every time I put any heat on my hair, and even just after I was my hair in general just in case I decide to blow dry it or something. I love it, it make my hair feel very soft and smooth and it smells amazing!

Protaine Moroccan Argon oil shampoo & conditioner: I got these from Aldi! I saw someone post that they were coming into stock on Beauty Heaven and I thought Id give them a try. I do like them and the are making my hair feel really soft at the moment but I probably wouldn't repurchase them! They don't have a great smell, they smell kinda like boys deodorant. 

TRESemme Leave in conditioner: This is my lifesaver. It makes my hair soft and shiny and smell good and I love it but unfortunately I'm almost out so that makes me really want to buy a different one next time :( 

All products were purchased with my own money. I am not affiliated with any of these brands and all of these reviews are my own opinion. 

If you have any haircare suggestions that will make my hair grow or any leave in conditioners that I could try next, please leave me a comment :) 

Thanks for reading! 

HAUL!

My first haul post! This is pretty much a collective haul from 2014 so far.. I got a lot for christmas so I haven't really purchased much lately, but i still had a few things, especially after Priceline's 40% off! (Who else can't wait until 40% off skincare?!)  

PRICELINE HAUL!

Essie Nail Colour in Forever Yummy 

RRP: $16.95

I paid: $10.17

I saved $6.78

I love this colour, and Essie nail polishes glide on so easily and last for ages without chipping so I happily handed over my money to the cashier for this one! 

Essie Care Millionails Treatment 

RRP: $17.95

I paid: $10.77 

I saved: $7.18

I currently have this treatment on my nails and i already love it. Im pretty sure my nails are already stronger which is good because they are usually very weak making them hard to grow and groom other then a paint job! Hopefully this will strengthen them so I can actually file them into a shape and paint them nicely! 

Rimmel 'I love fruities' in Apricot Punch

RRP: $5.98

I paid: $3.47

I saved:$2.38

Another colour which I just loved and had to have. I love having bright coloured nails during winter so I always stock up at the end of summer and i really didn't have a colour anything like this in my collection.

TRESemme Keratin Smooth Heat Protection Spray

RRP: $11.99 

Unfortunately not on sale but mine was empty so I had to buy another one. Its a product I use religiously now so I'll be stocking up next sale!

Essence 2in1 Profi File

RRP: $1.47

I paid: $0.88

I saved:$0.59

I didn't have a nail file and figured seeing as I want to start growing my nails I should get one so i can shape them, especially seeing as i have three nails that grow squareish then two nails that grow round... I don't even know why or how! 

Essence Lash and Brow Gel Mascara

RRP: $3.50

I paid: $2.10

I saved: $1.40

This is just a favourite of mine, I use it to set my eyebrows everyday so I figured Id just pick up an extra even though it was really necessary. 

Essence XXXL Shine Lipgloss

RRP: $2.59

I paid: $1.77

I saved:$1.17

I only have one thing to say about this lipgloss. Go buy it. Its not sticky on the lips, it actually feels moisturising, it lasts for ages. its amazing. 

Australis Velour-Lips in Par-ee 

RRP: $9.95

I paid: $5.97

I saved: $3.98

I have wanted this for ages, and unfortunately the Priceline I went to was all sold out of NY-CEE, but after using this once, I may go back and get it full priced its that good. I love this colour, I have very pigmented lips naturally and this just completely covers it and leaves them will a beautiful colour. Definitely recommend! 

MAC HAUL! 

Tiny MAC haul because its so expensive but very worthwhile. I walked in to get a new brush cleaner, left with a concealer and blush too.. uh oh.

MAC Brush Cleanser

RRP: $20.00

I use this every second day as a spot cleaner, I got this back up a while ago but I'm still going through my first which has lasted for about a year with half of it being spilt at the very beginning. I recommend it to all my friends, so easy to use and long lasting which I love. 

MAC Pro Longwear Concealer in NW15

RRP: $ 32.00

I gave into temptation.. Jacyln Hill kept using it and i wanted it even more and here we are... I got it in a shade lighter for highlighting more then concealing, and in NW instead of NC for under eye covering. Fantastic texture, long lasting, doesn't crease, perfect. 

MAC Powder Blush in Peaches

RRP: $41.00

I was looking at a new blush, the shop assistant reccomended this one, I fell in love. Amazing texture, build able colour, iv had it for about a month, using it non stop and i haven't made a dint. 

HAIRDRESSER HAUL 

CPR Frizzy Control 

RRP: $22.50

I have used this product before and it stops my unruly hair from frizzing all over the place so my lovely hairdresser convinced my to buy it again which I'm very happy about! 

All products were purchased with my own money. I am not affiliated with any of these brands and all of these reviews are my own opinion. 

Have you had any recent hauls? Or did you splurge a bit at the Priceline sale?
