2014 Beauty Favourites

2014 was a great year for me in terms of beauty products. I discovered a lot of products that I now love and I thought I would do a post about my top ten favourites.

Hitting Bottom! | Product Empties #2

Back from the doldrums with a new post - some rubbish I've been hoarding for this post. I've used up a few things, and thought I'd show you today!

Lush R&B Hair Moisturiser

I bought the R&B hair moisturiser from Lush a while ago. My bottle of Moroccan Oil was down to the last drops so I thought why not. It's been three years since I had a hair cut so my ends are really dry - yes, yes, I should get a trim but I keep procrastinating on it.

The Lush R&B hair moisturiser is suitable for dry or curly hair types. It's made of fresh ingredients, like organic avocado butter and olive oil. You run it through your damp hair (and scrunch your hair, too, if you want) and leave it in to dry. It's meant to tame frizzy hair and make it silky smooth. After reading so many great reviews and trying it out, I swear there is something wrong with me.

Put the volume up! | Products for bigger hair

I stayed over at my mum's for Mother's Day recently and didn't bring any of my usual hair care stuff with me.

(Did you all have a good Mother's Day? My mum really wanted to go to the Star for their eat all you can seafood thing. I ate so much smoked salmon that I really can't... oh gross.)

So after I showered, I did my usual "blow dry my hair upside down" thing, but when I looked into the mirror, I thought, "woah my hair still looks so... flat."

I guess the stuff that I use makes a difference, after all!

So, I thought I would let you all know what works for me!

Hitting Bottom! | Product Empties #1

Here are a couple of products I've hit bottom on/used up recently. I think I'll keep these posts short, to 4-5 products at a time. Firstly, so these posts aren't a massive block of text and also, so I don't have to keep empty containers around for too long. 

I've used up a whole lot more but these are the ones that I want to tell you about! (Because honestly, I doubt you care about some cheap Big W bath set I got for Christmas.)

Haircare haul | Priceline freebie haircare bag

I've had short hair for eons. Then one day, I decided I wanted to recreate the Birth of Venus and be able to stand naked on a shell, clutching my hair to cover my dignity. Just kidding. All of a sudden - WHAM - I had long hair and I can't put it off - I actually need to take care of it now.

I don't own much hair care products, only a bottle of Moroccanoil, which is now down to it's last drops and a bottle of Lee Stafford Sea Salt Spray that I bought last week. I don't even own a brush, you guys! My hair dryer was passed onto me by my stepmother and I'm pretty sure it's from the early 90's. 

When I found out Priceline was giving out a bag of various hair care goodies to people who spent over $50 on hair care products, I decided to take advantage of it.
