Hairstyle with Garnier! #WholeBlendsLounge

One week ago I had the lovely pleasure of visiting Scarborough Town Centre and was informed by my lovely friend and supporter online Joy that Garnier is having a social media extravaganza! The #WholeBlendsLounge was set up with super duper cute things. It had an area for hair, a swing and bench for pictures and the loveliest station to personalize your own bottle.

Very special!

The first 30 people received special gifts and I was one of them. I received the Argan Oil & Cranberry Shampoo and Conditioner. It’s absolutely fabulous! Did you know that the Whole Blends are paraben free? This duo helps protect colour and gives radiance to the hair.

I was so excited and overjoyed to be at the #WholeBlendsLounge because I’m a HUGE fan of the Whole Blends Products, especially the new Oat Delicacy because I can use it on my children. I love how my hair looks and feels after using the Whole Blends shampoos and conditioners. My hair shines and feels soft and silky. It’s also very hydrating.

I was greeted and had my hair styled by Garnier Brand Ambassador Roger. He is super kind and did a fabulous job on styling my hair. I absolutely loved it! Thank you Roger!

Thank you so much to my friend Joy and to Garnier for all the love and support. I adore the Oat Delicacy new shampoo and conditioner. It is delicate enough for my children and this makes me so happy. I really want to try the dry shampoo and also their new Rose skincare Collection. So much goodness!

Wear It The Way You Want! New In Fashion & Beauty

STYLE! FASHION! BEAUTY!

Cool temperatures are here and I’m happy to share new fashion, hair and makeup pieces that I’ve been wearing and loving. I feel my style and the pieces I wear say a lot about my character don’t you think? I personally like to wear one piece that is an accent piece. Like a Sequin Skirt with solid colours or a printed cami that has a bit of a wild flare! Patterns and textures are a must for me. I have a huge love for texture, materials and pattern combinations.

I’m wearing a quarter length sleeve top in black from ZARA. Necklace, The Mayan Beauty Layered Tassel Necklace has Multiple rows of faceted beads which create a unique layered look. 52 cm L with 9cm extender $29.00. The Brush Sequins Skirt, AVON (Swipe up for teal sequins, swipe down for gold. Wear it Solid, create a pattern.) Any Which Way Skirt is $54.00. Outer Shell: Nylon; lining; polyester. I’m also wearing tights and boots from WINNERS. I would pair this outfit with Angela Roi ZURI TRAVEL POUCH WITH AISHA GIRAFFE – in BLACK. 5% of each sale from the Aisha Giraffe Collection goes to the Wild Nature Institute to help giraffes.

New favourite makeup is the new MAKE UP FOR EVER Refillable Makeup System with three Artist Face Colours. Blush, sculpting powder and highlight. I’m absolutely loving my three shades and the best part is that you can choose from so many colours! I have an article coming bestdayblogger.com this week with this new Makeup System and I’m OBSESSED with it! The three shades that I’m wearing in the photos are H100 Highlighter, B302 Blush, S112 Sculpting Powder.

As for my hair I’m very pleased with the the shine, feel and texture. I really want to try eSalons Custom Hair Colour. It’s a “professional-grade color that delivers rich, long-lasting results and 100% gray coverage.” Sounds pretty exciting to me and very affordable. Have you tried it before? Let me know if you’ve tried it.

I’ve changed my hair routine! I wash my hair less, down to two times a week. I spend more time working the product in. I’m usually very fast and don’t take the time to really massage my scalp and I’ve also increased the time that conditioner stays on. I find this has really helped with the texture of my hair. My hair is more hydrated and shiny. I also enjoy adding oils and giving my hair a lovely treatment every week.

Here are a few tips and tricks to help your hair.

I need to wear my sunglasses more often. I’m loving my D&G Sunglasses. I’m wearing my black quarter sleeve length ZARA top, The Sweet and Pretty Wild Cami by AVON, $36.00. Lipstick CHANEL in the colour Rouge Allure Velvet 63 Nightfall, Bag Wild Thing Bag by AVON, (BAG $46.00 Faux calf hair (polyester) and faux leather (polyrethane). 20cm Lx 13 cm Hx 8 cm D 130cm max. adjustable, detachable shoulder strap). Tights and Boots from WINNERS.

Here I’m wearing Green With Envy Top AVON $54.00 Polyester/Rayon/spandex and The Mayan Beauty Layered Tassel Necklace AVON has Multiple rows of faceted beads which create a unique layered look. 52 cm L with 9cm extender $29.00.

I hope you all enjoyed this blog post!

HOT TOOLS PROFESSIONAL CURLING IRON – REVIEW

I kindly received Hot Tools Curling Iron from Trade Secrets for review purposes and I’m truly excited to talk about this amazing curling iron because it gives the perfect beach waves and volume ever! I was looking for a curling iron because I don’t own one and didn’t know where to start. Trade Secrets helped me figure out what is best for me to achieve the look I want. They suggested the Hot Tools Professional 1 1/2″ Curling Iron 24K Gold.

I’ve been seeing a lot of hair photos on all social media about beach waves and then this beautiful curling iron came into my life! I’m truly grateful. I used this 5 times so far to get it right and I’m still working on getting better at it. I’m use to using hot curlers but the hot curlers give a different curl then this curling iron. As you will see in my pictures this creates volume and soft waves.

The curling iron comes with instructions and extra spring. What’s great about the Hot Tools Curling Iron is that it has different temperature settings. It is brilliant because if you want loose waves you can use less heat and if you want more definition you can put it on a higher heat. Also some hair can’t take that much heat and it can cause damage to the hair. I like how I can customize the proper heat for my hair. It also has a little stand so it can safely stay risen and not touch my counter. I really like how the handle rotates, it makes curling easier and faster. If you would like to see a video on how I curl my hair let me know in the comments.

I tried this curling iron 5 times so far and I love it. If you want beach waves and volume this curling iron will truly do that. Did you know that when your curl your hair you should start curling at the roots and work your way down? This way you create more volume.

I’m going to be using this all summer! I love how it gives me a natural and soft look. It is very easy to use and customizable in temperature. The handle rotates and makes curling easy. If you are looking to create beach waves this summer this wand for you. If you have the same length as me or longer this will give you the best beach waves. Do you have a curling iron? Which one? Would love to know. I don’t use this everyday. Just letting you know I usually curl my hair when I have to go somewhere and when I’m filming. Just mentioning this because I know a lot of heat is not good for the hair.

I’m very happy with my curling iron, I find it easy to use and love the look it gives!
