A very quick tip!

Hello!

I know this should have been up yesterday, but anyone who follows me on Facebook will know I have been in the wars again, and yes, it was self inflicted. I seem to be going out and doing more now than when I was a student, and I am loving it!

Anyway to my tip, which, you may call gross but I don't care. I have a big thing about only washing my hair twice a week, I used to do it every day and it dried the hell out of it, so now I am strict. Anyway, I work in a graphics studio and often find myself 'twiddling' my hair when thinking, (don't ask, it's something I have done for a long time, and my dad still twiddles my hair!). That often leaves me with a greasy 'fringe' area. Obviously I can't just ignore that, so I wash my hair Batiste style. Normally people spray dry shampoo in and brush it straight out as a quick freshen up, and that works fine! But I have other methods...

Basically, before I go to bed I spray my hair until it's white, (only the area that is greasy), plait my hair, and go to bed. By morning the white is gone and my hair is refreshed! Pretty neat huh! It doesn't seem to be drying it out, but I do seem to have pretty 'hard' hair, there's not much that upsets it. 

Let me know if you do this, because I am pretty sure my flatmate thinks I am a bit mad haha!

Anyway, I have no pictures of my with white hair, (and even if I did I don't think I would post them!), so instead here is a picture of me before a recent night out. I am wearing my flatmate Sam's top and my H&M shorts, New Look leggings, and you can't see but my H&M Flatforms. 

Anyway, I am going to do some work on my work blog now, so until next time...

Quick Tip Today...

So after a busy weekend I love nothing more than a bit of me time, so here is how I spend my Sunday night, watching X Factor, with a glass of white...


Yes, this is clingfilm on my legs. And why you ask? Well its a little beauty trick courtesy of Sam

So after having a lovely bath and shaving my pins, I usually get very sore legs and very rashy, which let's face it, is not attractive. So Sam suggested I tried lathering on the moisturiser and wrapping my legs in clingfilm over night, so that's exactly what I did. And guess what? My legs felt lovely! Yes they are still a bit itchy, but all in all they feel better. My current moisturiser of choice is Simple Derma Intensive Relief, which is suitable for excema and other skin conditions.

So yeah, if you get shavers rash you should maybe try this cheap little trick and see if it works for you :)

Anyway, back to watching X Factor, so until next time :)
