Current Favourites - January 2015!

Hi guys! Hope your week is going well so far. Today I have my current favourites to share with you! I've been trialling these products for over a month now and I feel they definitely need a place in my favourites category! So let's take a look at what they are!

Revitanail Nail Strengthener, Keratin Strengthening System and Hand & Nail Cream (All on sale at Chemist Warehouse for $25.69, $16.69 and $19.69 respectively) - I've been using this trio as a system and have noticed my nails growing super fast. Not only does it help them grow, but helps to strengthen and build a healthy nail plate. The Keratin Strengthening System is a gel formula that you rub into your cuticles. I apply 1 coat of the nail strengthener, gel on all cuticles and the hand and nail cream to seal it all in. My hands and nails love me now.

Here are some results of my nails for 3 weeks using this system.

Shu Uemura Art of Hair - Cleansing Oil Shampoo, Conditioner and Essential Drops (RRP $73.00, $58.00 and $47.00 respectively, available from here). These decadently indulgent haircare products by Shu Uemura cleanse and condition my hair so gently and effectively. They smell amazing, like soft flowers and cedar wood oil. I love the pump bottle because it means I won't over use the product! The essential drops are to be used on your scalp. When I have just finished cleansing my hair with the shampoo and it is all rinsed out, I part my hair in the middle and apply 4-5 drops onto my scalp and rub it in. It helps to balance out your scalp and keep it revitalised and nourished. Everytime I wash my hair with these products, I feel like I'm at a really expensive spa or hotel. It is the perfect indulgence.

L'ancome Vernis in Love 560 Or Vendôme (RRP $31, available from David Jones and Myer). This beautiful gold colour by L'ancome has made it's way into my favourites because it has a perfect formula and amazing quality. It also suits my skin tone perfectly. J'adore! Photo's show 1 coat of polish with no topcoat.

Nude by Nature - Natural Mineral Cover (RRP $39.95 and $14.95 for the brush, available online here). I've finally found a foundation that I feel confident wearing daily and that I seriously love. This mineral powder gives you a perfect, airbrush finish and medium/full coverage. I can never seem to find my right shade when it comes to foundations and powders but this one matches my skin really well. This doesn't break out my skin, or make me look oil, or cakey, or washed out. I can't rave enough about this product. It has an SPF of 15 but doesn't give a white cast off it. . yay! I love using it with the brush as it is soft and blends really well. It has become a holy grail product for me and I will continue to use it for the rest of my make-up wearing life! I definitely recommend it!

Pantene PRO-V - Intensive Damage Repair Oil

Hi everyone! Today I have Pantene's PRO-V Intensive Damage Repair Oil to show you – RRP $9.99 (but bought it for $4.99 on special at Coles).

My hair is no stranger when it comes to damage and lots of hair dyes! I dye the ends of my hair a very light ash blonde every 3 months or after every haircut to keep my balayage/ombre look intact. I’ve been doing it since October 2011(!) The ends of my hair get seriously brittle so I knew I needed a good treatment which is why I thought I’d give this Pantene oil a go. . Plus it was on special! It helps repair and seal every strand of hair and reduces protein loss. It smells just like regular Pantene shampoo and conditioner and the oil is clear when you pump it out of the bottle. I only used a 5c piece worth and it was more than enough for the ends of my hair. My ends look much shinier and smell great but after 1 use I can’t see a dramatic improvement. I do really like this oil and think it works well to style hair naturally and help keep it hydrated as well as helping you have a good hair day!. What do you think?

Aaaaanddd... a sneaky pic of me front on!
