LUSH Oxford Street London | The Comforter Shower Cream Review

This month I've found myself spending less on makeup and more on toiletries products, most likely because Sephora bankrupted me when I traveled Paris last month. Butttt body care and body loving is just as important as makeup. If you're a reader of my blog, you would know that I tend to go for seductive florals or rich berry scents. As it's coming to the end of summer, (it's actually fricking cold af rn!) I wanted something to somewhat warm me up... if that makes sense. So the Comforter appealed to me as LUSH described it as a wrap of warm hugs. Sounds good to me! Let's check what this bad boy is all about.

► Product:

I haven't tried the Comforter bubble bar or shower gel, so I can't compare it to them. The shower cream comes in a vivid fun pink colour that contains silver shimmer. The smell is absolutely divine! It's very sweet and very fruity thanks to the yummy vanilla and blackcurrant combo. It's reminds me of Christmas as the winter season if full of red berries and fig. Forget Autumn, i'm not about that spice life. The scent is quite strong so it lingers onto your body after showering, but the linger is subtle.

The consistency of the shower cream as you can see in the photo, is different from your regular shower cream as it's very thin and watery. It lathers up nicely under running water but it's not foamy generous due to it's slightly oily almond oil formula. Having said that, my skin felt much more moisturised and baby soft after usage compared to regular shower creams. It's like a 2 in 1 that cleanses and conditions the skin.

Overall i'm utterly in love with it and extremely happy with the purchase. I would definitely it buy again. This stuff is like Christmas and cuddles in a bottle! But I do recommend you to check out the scent in stores for yourself as it is quite strong so you may find it overwhelming.

Fishnet Grunge Outfit | ZANSTYLE Pantskirt Review

Skort: ZanStyle

ZanStyle were lovely enough to send me a few of their clothing pieces to play around with and style. ZanStyle is a new online store that offers casual smart chic clothing. While i'm not much of a casual chic girl (unless when my job requires me to be), I did really like how simple and effortless their clothing pieces are. My favourite is the black panskirt! You can probably already guess why if you follow my fashion/outfit posts. ^.< I absolutely adore the rivet and side ribbon detailing! It's all about the small detailing and touches for me. The panskirt is actually shorts made to look like a skirt. The quality of the panskirt is nicely made too, so I do recommend this skort!

For a casual chic outfit, I would style the panskirt with a sky blue blouse. However, I have been into grunge fashion lately, so I decided to take approach it with a grungy touch by styling the panskirt with fishnet tights under. (Yes, I am major late but i've finally jumped onto the fishnet trend!) I think it the perfect combo and I utterly love how it looks! I've rocking it the pairing a lot.

Do you prefer casual chic outfits or edgy outfits? ^^

Outfit Details:

Jacket: Valley Girl

Top: New Look

Skort: ZanStyle

Tights: Primark

Schwarzkopf | Color Mask Hair Dye Review - Pearl Blonde 910

When I can't decide which colour I want to switch my hair to blonde is always my go to colour, as I can leave it as it is or add some colour later. Today i'm going to be using the Colour Mask Hair Dye from Schwarzkopf. It's the first hair mask colourant, designed like a hair mask for easy usage and for extra healthy shine. This line has actually been around for a while but with so many dyes on the market, I didn't get round to trying it until now. Let's get into the review to see how this mask dye performs differently from regular dyes!

► Product:

The box contains the standard colour cream, developer, hair treatment, instructions and gloves. The only difference is that the developer comes in a hair mask like tub instead of a bottle.

► Dying Process:

To mix the dye together you'll need to empty the colour cream into the developer cream tub and shake it up and down roughly for 30 seconds. It was fun shaking it but it also felt like doing a mini arm workout. Once finished shaking, you'll get a blue coloured dye that has a thick and creamy consistency. Then apply the dye throughout your entire hair and leave it to develop for 30 minutes. I found it very easy to apply as the dye didn't drip and it smelt pretty good. Lastly, rinse the dye off and pamper your hair with the shea butter conditioner after.

► Results: Hair Before Dying

My hair before was bleached blonde, with brassy roots and more yellow than the rest of my hair. The dye is actually recommended for those with naturally blonde hair as it only lifts up to 2 levels.

► Results: Hair After Dying

This is my hair after, a light platinum blonde. The colour matched the box pretty accurately, the dye made my hair shinier compared to other dyes. As for the shea butter conditioner, I think that it's very much like the other Schwarzkopf conditioners, but my hair does feel amazingly soft.

► Overall:

An interesting dye, with a creamy hair mask like texture. The consistency made application friendly and covered my hair evenly. The colour matches the swatches on the box. It's super affordable and conditions your hair nicely while it does it job. I really like this dye and think that it's under rated.

► Rating: 9/10

CHAMPAGNE PINK HAIR? | FRESHLIGHT SCHWARZKOPFT DYE REVIEW

BONJOUR HONG KONG $52

How adorable and unique does champagne pink sound for a hair colour? The packaging is even more cute! It's also what lured me into purchasing and trying out this dye. Let's jump right into the review because the result of this dye ended up pretty interesting and underwhelming at the same time...

► Contents:

The box includes the colour cream, developer, instruction leaflet, hair mask, brush applicator and a pair of gloves. Everything was written in Japanese so I didn't understand what it was saying. But it was very straightforward and easy to use as it's the same as your standard drugstore hair dyes.

► Process:

I sectioned up my hair and applied the dye onto my bleached hair, leaving it to develop for around 30 minutes. You can watch all the mixing process in the video above~ The dye made my hair look very lilac when it was developing, I thought the colour was going to turn out as a unique mauvy lilac however the results were completely different to box and not what I expected!

► Before Dying:

Yes I forgot to take a photo of my hair before I dyed it... I am literally face palming myself! So here's a screenshot of my hair colour from a Youtube video before I dyed it on the day. 

► After Dying:

HERE'S WHAT WE'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR! The colour looks completely different to when the dye was on right? After washing out the dye, my hair turned out as cool silver blonde with a very subtle hint of pink. It's a cute colour. The pink isn't very noticeable, I wish the pink was more intense like when the dye was developing.

► After 2 Washes:

Only after 2 washes, the pink completely faded to fully silver. The colour faded so quickly, you would think that I have dyed my hair again.

► Overall:

The dye was easy to use and came with everything you would need. This is the first box dye that i've tried that DOESN'T match the box. Usually the swatches on the back of the box are fairly accurate in my opinion, but this was off the charts. I guess it may be a different story for unique fashion colours? Although I do like the colour, the dye on a whole was disappointing - the result was completely unexpected and the colour faded ridiculously quick. Therefore I would not recommend this dye. Don't fall for the cute packaging like I did! I'll give kudos to Fresh Light for marketing technique.

► Rating: 4/10
