Hair Colour (Colouring Hair)

In a recent survey of 1000 women, it was found that 72 per cent say that they feel more attractive after they have coloured their hair.

 

Hair Colour (Colouring Hair)

Nowadays, it is usual to see women and some men changing their hair colours to suit their fancy.

It is said that blondes have more fun.  We can all find out if this is strictly the truth! 😉

Dyeing hair can be done in salon or at home as a cheaper option and yet as effective.

There are rules of thumb to be fallowed to prolong the new colour of the hair:

* After dyeing the hair, wait at least two days (48 hours) before washing and shampooing the hair.  Let the new colour settle first.

* Try to wash the coloured hair in warm water, rather than in hot.  The hot temperature fades the new colour quicker.

* It is best to use shampoos and conditioners which are especially produced for coloured hair.

* Using heated appliance to coloured hair should be kept in the minimum.

* When colouring at home, dress appropriately.  Wear old shirt as any renegade dye would surely stain your clothes and your skin.  Wash off immediately where it drips off on your skin.

*  Do not dye your eye brows at home as it may cause risk to your eyes.  Consult a professional.

* Wear a hat when out in the sun.

* Deep conditioning treatment for  the hair will keep the hair nourished and looking great.

For Her – Narciso Rodrigues Scent

I was reading my Glamour magazine at my desk at work when I found this perfumed flap with a sample of Narciso Rodriguez scent called For Her.

I love it instantly. It is so me. It reminds me of old days, of innocence, purity, of summer, of bathing in a warm lake, of flowery dresses, nice breeze, warm embrace, of clear sky, ripening palays, birds singing…..  It is so evocative – nostalgic.. classy in the way that Chanel No 5 is.  It has that elegant and clean smell.

OMG, I thought all of the above for just snipping For Her. I WANT THIS FOR CHRISTMAS!!!

Bio-Oil – the Lowdown


I saw an advert for Bio-oil on telly a couple of years ago. I tried it, I liked it and I have been using it ever since.

My husband saw me using it religiously and noticed the difference it has done to my skin. He has also started using it. I do not only use it on my face, I also apply it to any dry spot or somewhere where there is a scar.

It is not a miracle cure but it does a pretty good job in rehydrating dry skin.

I would certainly recommend it to anyone.

We buy the largest size which retails at around £19.00 and it lasts for months and months.  Good value for what it does to your skin.

It is a skin hero.  Something to use when you are tired and weary and would just like to clean your face and just slap a bit of skin care and hoping that you wake up with soft, hydrated skin.
