Hair Care Product of the week: Schwarzkopf Extra Care Hair Repair with Liquid Keratin

 

 

Come on be honest every girl out there struggles with their hair even guys struggle with bad hair though they usually would never admit that it bothers them in a million years. We all have bad hair days I don’t know about you but unfortunately I seem to have them practically every day. A girl’s hair is like diamonds are to jewellery; the star attraction of our beauty and style regime, great hair can raise a simple outfit of jeans and a tee to a whole new level of glamour and we all want to look our best no matter the occasion. For me that usually starts with making sure my hair doesn’t look like a shaggy dog or something from the Adams family which of course is easier said than done.

 

The Schwarzkopf Extra Care Hair Repair with Liquid Keratin is a great repair and replenishing treatment for very dry and damaged hair. If you are like me and practically every other girl on the entire planet then you would suffer from occasional dry and frizzy hair as well as annoying split ends. This product from Schwarzkopf Has 3 times liquid keratin to repair damage to the hair and give it a nice healthy shine which is something that every girl loves and desires.

 

It’s a leave in spray. To use just shake the bottle then spray onto towel fried or dry hair to get the best look.

Product Review

Designer Brands Twist 'n' Go, instant nail polish remover 

 

 

Believe me I know how hard it can be to find a good nail polish remover. I spent years actively avoiding getting a manicure because I didn't want to go through the horrible process of scrubbing my nails with some remover on a cotton ball. I'd be sitting there scratching and scrubbing my nails for over half an hour. It used to drive me mental. Also not very good for the health of you nails to be constantly be scrubbing them with harsh cotton and cloths.

When I went browsing around at my local chemist warehouse store I stumbled upon a different kind of nail polish remover. It was an Instant polish remover that was supposed to be gentle on the nails and remove even the thickest polish with ease in simply a few seconds. All you had to do it said was dip your nails in the padded bottle and twist and the foam would remove all polish instantly. 

Now me being the sceptic that I am almost walked away but some part of me was curious. Curiosity is an annoying trait of mine that more often than not leads to bad things as I'm sure many people can relate to. It's especially unkind for me in trying new products but my curiosity got the best of me this time, or I should probably say once again as this isn't the first time that's happened.

 

 

 

 

So I bit the bullet and made the purchase and let me tell you I am so glad that I did. The second I got home I decided to test it out and gave myself a quick and messy manicure and waited for it to dry. Then to remove it I did as instructed and dipped my finger in and twisted it around on the padded inside of the remover bottle When I lifted my finger out I could not believe it, the polish was completely gone in only a few seconds. Even better the remover actually left my nail and finger feeling soft and moisturised. I discovered that was because the remover is formulated with royal jelly, vitamins C & E, Aloe Vera and Green Tea. So it's a good formulation to keep the nails healthy and it doesn't smell to bad either. Well it's never great to take a big whiff of nail polish remover but if you do it accidentally when removing polish as I have done more than once; at least with this polish the smell doesn't leave you coughing from the toxic chemicals. 

 

So in conclusion I'd definitely recommend this nail polish remover. It has worked wonders for my manicure regime. I now love getting a manicure knowing I won't have to worry about scrubbing and damaging my nails when I try to remove the polish. 

I'll give this product 5 out of 5 stars. I loved it. You can pick it up from your local pharmacy or beauty store or online at: www.chemistwarehouse. com

Nail Trend: Gel Effects

On trend: Gel Effect Nails

Basically every make up brand out there on the market today has some form of gel effect nail polish. It's right on trend to have the perfect polished shine of gel effect nails which anyone can do at home without sacrificing on the quality that you would get in a salon. 

The gel salon look in manicures is very popular right now. So I've decided to do a post on my pick for the best way to get the professional gel manicure. 

The brand I've chosen is my fave Nails Inc. their best selling Gel Effect Polish range is formulated with plasticiser technology perfect for achieving a flawless manicure at home. 

The extra wide brush on these polishes makes it easier to apply neatly. Which means less polish running down the sides of your nails; which if you are anything like me happens quite frequently when I give myself a manicure or attempt to anyway. 

I've discovered that the Nails Inc Gel Effect polish is very pigmented so it provides great coverage. As well as a plumping agent in the polish to level out any imperfections on the nail, and believe me we all have nail imperfections wether it's from biting our nails too much or just not looking after our nails properly so that they begin to chip. The Nails Inc polishes can help to condition the nails and protect from chipping to make the nails stronger. 

My picks from the Nails Inc London Gel Effect range are the most popular colours in Australia at the moment:

 

Bond Street- available from www.nailsinc.com for £10 currently on sale and down from the original price of £14. 

Kensington High Street- avaliable from www.nailsinc.com for £15

Porchester Square- available from www.nailsinc.com for £15

St James- striking red. Available from www.nailsiinc.com for £15

The Kensington Caviar top and base coat  duo treatment pack. Available from www.nailsinc.com for £25, though you can buy each separately but it will cost you double the price then the pack. So I'd definitely recommend getting the duo treatment pack. 

I often use the base and top costs with other brands of polish as well as it adds a little something extra to any manicure. 

You don't have to ise nails inc to get the perfect gel look but they are my pick. i find its best to try as many brands you wish as some brands work better than others for many people. We all have our faves and at the moment Nails Inc is mine. So for the best, most salon like professional manicure I would definitely recommend The Nails Inc London; Gel Effect Collection but I'm sure there are many other great gel effect polishes out there which I will search for in my efforts to get the best manicure at home. 

My pick for nail polish pack of the season

You always need a good nail polish to complete a great look. Wether it's for daily wear or for a girls night out we all want to look our best and having a good selection of polishes to choose from for the season ahead is a great place to start to glam it up.
