How to fight the frizz!!

I've always had quite dry hair that gets frizzy. My worst nightmare is the rain and wind especially straight after my hairs been washed! I've tried to tame my hair with so many products, finally I found two that never let me down when it comes to fighting frizz!

After I shampoo and condition my hair (post to follow soon about my top shampoos and conditioners) I apply John Frieda Frizz Ease Extra Strength 6 effects + serum to towel dried hair. I blow dry it and use a low heat to finish styling. When my hair is finally styled, I use Mark Hills Defrizz-ilicious Bedazzled Anti-Humidity Shine spray which seals the hair and gives it a great shine. Finally, I give it a quick brush and I'm ready for the day no matter what the weather's like!

Lancome miracle eye products!!

One of the gifts I got in my stocking for Christmas is the Lancome Hypnose Mascara and the Bi-Facial eye makeup remover. I wear eyeliner, eyeshadow and mascara every day so it put the remover to the test! I applied it to some cotton wool and placed it over each eye and after only a few wipes the makeup was fully removed. I couldn't recommend this product more! It comes in a 125ml bottle on its own in boots for €28.50 and is well worth it! You only need a small amount each use.

As mine was in a set, I've got to use the mascara and I'm very picky when it comes to mascaras. Usually, I like a thicker brush but I found this gave the same affect as a thicker brush would. I found there was no clumps and my eye lashes didn't end up sticking together. I also didn't have to over apply; two coats and I was all set for the day. You can purchase the mascara here and it is €27.50.
