Percy & Reed- Colour & Shine Conditioner

I got this conditioner free with Glamour magazine a few weeks back and I was excited to try it as I had heard great things about Percy & Reed. Now I'll start off by saying that I'm not the best person for this conditioner as my hair isn't coloured. Therefore this maybe why I don't love this product. It's a nice creamy conditioner which can be used daily or left for a few minutes as an intensive conditioner. My hair was left feeling smooth and clean. However once dried, I noticed that my hair looked a bit dry and lacked the 'shine' it promised. Overall I do think Percy & Reed Colour & Shine Conditioner is a nice but at £16, I think there are better conditioners out there on the market. Please do let me know if you have coloured and have tried this, how you got on.

Benefit They're Real Review

This was probably the most talked about mascara in the blogger-sphere in 2012 and there was a good reason. I first purchased Benefit They're Real Mascaraback in the summer after hearing so much about it. I was amazed after the first time of wearing it; my eyelashes were long and voluminous. I have had so many comments when wearing this mascara and it is easily my favourite ever. It has a fibre wand which personally I prefer and the wand is rounded at the end so great for getting in the corners. Before applying the mascara, I curl my lashes with the No7 Eyelash Curlers. I don't feel it makes that much difference, but every little helps eh? At £18.50 this mascara is a little expensive, however I think it is totally worth it!

Skiing In A Winter Wonderland

A few weeks back I was lucky enough to go skiing for the week. My family and I escaped a miserable England and trotted off to Tinges, France for a week of beautiful views. This was my second time skiing, so as a bit of a newbie I went along to skiing lessons in the morning which was great fun and helped a lot. We were incredibly lucky with the weather as we had blue skies everyday. Although don't let the blue skies fool you, as one day it was 19°c! The copious amounts of hot chocolates helped with the cold as we snuggled in the bars most days. I recommend skiing holidays to anyone that's likes to get out and about and find the most amazing views. You don't have to be amazing at skiing to enjoy it, so don't be put off by the lunatics speeding down at 100 mph. Hopefully we will all be able to go again next year, but until then it is back to the grey, depressing weather of London and exams.
