This is such a fun Christmas Gift for those out there who struggle to blow dry.. This may just make there lives a little easier for 2015. So this is sort of a Hair Brush/Blow Dry/Hot Roller Set in one!

Included is 6 medium rollers and one Handle.

This is a simple way for professional results. Simple use as you would a round brush when blowdrying and detach the roller in your hair.  the very important step to have that curl have hold.. along with product/hairspray etc.. is to let it cool in its place. So let it set to cool in your hair before you get a glorious curl to let free. 

Six rollers is not enough for your whole head.. but it only needs to sit in place till cool.. So by the time you have reached your 6th roller.. you can take out and reuse the first one you used. Or just set the top 6 on your head.. and give the bottom hair a slight curly when blowdrying to make it uniform.

There are different sizes and different packs to choose from depending on the texture and length of your hair.. I love the medium for me. 

$49.99 (USD)

Take a look online and see what I am rambling about..

Happy thanksgiving y'all.

It is not very often I post on Health products... But you all know by now how strongly I feel about Beauty and Health coinciding with one another. So I hope you enjoy the read my lovely followers!! 

I recently took part in a Juice Cleanse.. For the blog! For you guys!

I was excited to give it a go.. and actually wasn't as hard as I initially thought. This was my first ever juice cleanse. I felt clean and honestly when cleanse was all done with I felt guilty somehow.. putting meat and bread back in my body. 

Huge thanks OnJuice for supplying me with all my juices!! 

http://www.onjuice.com/

I actually fell in love with my morning juice.. Mint Condition

The juices with spinach.. not my fav! But great for your body. Great source of iron.

yum yum yum!

So I did a 3 day Specialty Complexion Cure Juice Cleanse with OnJuice.

2 days pre cleanse detox

3 days on juice and raw selected foods (mainly fruit and veg)

7 day post juice cleanse detox!

The Juices were packed with yummy goodness.. Filled with fruit and veg that improved elasticity in my skin and made my skin absolutely radiant! The ingredients in this particular cleanse is high in antioxidants and contains Vitamins A, B, C and E..

3 Day Cleanse comes to $150 for 12 bottles. 

4 bottles of juice a day which actually is a lot of juice! Non stop drinking, allowed water of course additional and OnJuice sent me a RAWSOME diet to follow too. 

I think a Juice Cleanse is fab! A great way to ease in to a diet.. Great way to start a new year.. 

Really actually made me realise how much unnecessary carbs and food volume I was eating prior to cleanse.. Also has been days since cleanse has been completed and still feeling very conscious about what goes in my body even though I am allowed back to the real world.. I'll definitely grab a piece of fruit instead of crackers/chocolate when I need a fix. Made me appreciate food!!

LOVE OnJuice!

So happy I gave it a go..

Check out all the cleanses on there website.

Tweezerman Brush iQ

A couple months back I was invited to a lunch by Tweezerman in NY and sadly was unable to attend.. which also meant I missed out on trying the new brush line 'brush iQ' 

I finally got my hands on some brushes and am head over heels in LOVE.

I have used Tweezerman for years and won't be stopping anytime soon.. 

brush iQ includes 12 brushes.. here are some of my absolute mush haves from the new line. 

Contour Concealer Brush

We all know everyones craze with the contour right about now.. This will make life easier for you.. Love the shape and curve of the brush. Great for highlighting the eye area.. Soft and the perfect brush for no dragging delicate areas.

$18.00 (USD) well worth it.

Pointed Concealer Brush

I can never have enough of this type of brush in my brush roll. I no doubt use this every time I apply makeup to a client! Multipurpose.. Great for point concealers, around nose, eyes. I also love to use for powder application for eyeliner under the eye.. or even a good smudge eyeliner brush.. 

$16.00 (USD)

Next up..

Pointed Foundation Brush

I go through stages of how I apply foundation.. fingers, sponge, brush.. 

If applying by brush its important to find the right tools. Not too long that it drags.. not to short that it takes forever, not to wide that you cant get in to little curves etc.. Needs to be just right.

Having the tapered tip means you can get in to nooks and cover a large area too.

Great brush!!

$28.00 (USD)
