Review: Batiste Coloured Dry Shampoo

I know, I know, I've been very slow on the uptake when it comes to dry shampoo ...

I know for a fact that Millie can't live without her bottle, but I've been holding out for our local branch of Boots to start stocking this particular kind: black dry shampoo, so I can get the bedhead look without the faux-dandruff!

The way it works is as follows: you wake up in the morning on a bad hair day, your normal hat/ hood/ scarf rescue routine is for whatever reason a no-go, and you're running too late to use real shampoo. All you have to do is whip out a bottle of this stuff, give it a couple of sprays, muss your hair and you're done. (No, really, it's that simple.)

Of course, it's also perfect for those "I've just finished work and my hair needs some va-va-voom" moments, or alternatively the common "I've been dancing in this club for four hours and am currently suffering serious hair failure".

It's on offer at Superdrug at the moment for 99p per bottle, so I really recommend that you get down there and try it!

Can't Live Without: Aussie Volume Range

Heya! A quick hair&beauty post!

You can probably see in some of my previous OOTD/FOTD posts that I haven't got massive amounts of volume in my hair (however much hairspray I use) however recently I have noticed a marked improvement after I switched shampoos. I saw the Aussie Aussome Volume shampoo & conditioner on offer (2 for £6) and decided it was time for change, I initially only bought the shampoo but quickly returned for the conditioner after loving the shampoo.


(I only have the 2 products on the left at the moment!)

I'm in love. Not only does it definately give me hair a boost, it also stops my hair getting as greasy as it used to and it smells divine. Hopefully when I have a bit more money I'll be able to indulge in some of the other products in the volume range. I'm especially wanting to try the mousse as I've heard good things!

Lots of Love, Millie xx

Country Life.

Heya, Just a quick post of a few photos from a country walk and cycle a few weeks ago...

As much as I enjoy summery country adventures like these, I'm a city girl at heart and can't wait to move into a city when I go to university in September.

On another note, stocked up on a few haircare products today, I'm currently trying out the Aussi haircare volume boost range, I haven't seen a massive difference yet but it's a good shampoo so I decided to try their conditioner as well. Also bought another bottle of batiste dry shampoo. I literally depend on this stuff! It's a lifesaver! Seems I'm not the only fan too, whilst reading the Elle runway edit from the september issue, Luke Hershon (hairstylist at NY Fashion week) mentions in an interview that he can't get through NY fashion week without it!

Lots of Love, Millie xx
