Here's to happy skin!

After over-bleaching and a perming disaster killing my hair a few years ago I've been scared to go back to blonde despite really wanting to. But I found this and gave it a go and I'm really glad I did. It's super easy to use and comes with everything you need to bleach your hair at home, you just mix up all the sachets and away you go. What put me at ease with this product is it urges you to do a strand test to see if the dye breaks your hair or not, which I think is great. Only downside is these dyes don't always go far, at the time I had collarbone length hair and two packs of this only just covered all of my hair. But in my opinion they're worth it because it's quite a gentle bleach and leaves your hair shiny and soft after using which I haven't found with any other bleach.

With being quite petite both in height (5ft) and build (size 6-8) it's never really been my thing to want high leg boots, mainly because they either make me look even smaller or they don't fit properly around my leg and I'm not a fan of it being baggy. However, the weather here has been horrendous and I was finding that I didn't really have monsoon weather appropriate shoes. Cue these little beauties from Asda. A lot of my purchases are whims, they tend to jump out at me from nowhere. I saw these and liked them because they were leather upper and looked more like a biker boot. I tried them and they fit my tiny size 3's like a glove! They are so so sooo comfy! Really warm, really weatherproof and not at any point of me wearing them have they rubbed or hurt my feet, and they fit great around the calf. What I love is that they are such a versatile boot, they go with dresses, skirts, shorts, jeans, you name it; they find a way to mesh wonderfully into any outfit. They also do a tan version which I may have to consider going forward into Spring.

I've got a bit of a thing for coconut lately and these are both just divine, not to mention amazing value. They both smell absolutely fantastic, coconut-y but not sickly, I just feel like I'm on a tropical island when I use these. They're also great quality, the shampoo lathers up beautifully leaving your hair squeaky clean and the conditioner makes your hair silky soft. Did I mention they both leave your hair smelling amazing too? Like a tropical goddess. Also, if you're a fan of dyeing your hair all the colours of the rainbow, the conditioner is great to use as a mixer with dyes (E.g Directions by La Riche) if you want to tone down a bright colour to a more pastel shade. Last point to mention is that neither product is tested on animals.

As you may be able to tell with the inclusion of a home bleaching kit, I am indeed battling with being blonde. The main goal is to eventually go white/silver and this is such a helpful product. I've used this in the past when I'd previously been bleach blonde and it really does banish the brassiness after one use! I like to use a range of their products because I think they all compliment each other well. Naturally because its a toner if you leave it in for longer than it states, or just use this as your shampoo every time you wash your hair, it really makes the difference on that quest for silver hair. Already after just under a months use I can see silvery/lilac tones shimmering through. So if you're looking to have lovely blonde locks without the yellow streaks, or if you're on a journey for silver hair without using dye I highly recommend this shampoo!

Here's to a Happy February!
