Review: Herbal Essences Rose Dry Shampoo


As I said in one of my previous posts here is my review of the new Herbal Essences Dry Shampoo. I have only used the rose scented one so far and to be quite honest I'm not really excited about it. 
I was at first when I found out Herbal Essences had brought out their own range of dry shampoos....that's why I bought all 3 fragrances. I had really high hopes for this one but to be honest I hate the scent of it. Out of all 3 the citrus one definitely smells the best so maybe I should've used that one first. The one thing that is good about it is it doesn't leave a white powder on your hair like the Batiste ones do however I feel this one makes your hair feel greasy so then I get paranoid my hair looks greasy.
This retails normally at £2.99 for 180ml which I think is ok I suppose however I purchased them all for £1.99 as they were on special offer at the time.
Also!...after only using it a few times the cap broke so I couldn't get the product to spray. Maybe it was just a faulty one but I wasn't very impressed!
I'm gonna give the other two a chance but wont be using this one again unless I'm in desperate need of it and run out of the others.

Pros:
  • Doesn't leave white powder on your hair.
  • Packaging looks great.
Cons:
  • Made my hair feel greasy.
  • Scent isn't my cup of tea.
  • Cap broke after only using it a few times.
  • Bit on the pricey side for a dry shampoo.

Primark Nail Polish Twist Pot Review

                          

Hi guys! Oops...it's been almost 2 weeks since I last wrote a blog post, I'm sorry!! I've just been so busy with moving cities and with starting a new job it's just been a bit cray cray at the moment but I'm now trying to get back on track with my blog :)
So to start off this week I'm gonna do a quick review on Primark's new nail polish twist pot from their new P.S Love range. I've seen a few people doing reviews on the same product but by different brands and was intrigued by it right away although they are quite pricey and I didn't want  to spend a lot on something I wasn't sure was going to work so that's why I grabbed this one when I came across it as it was only £1.00 and it's actually really good! So what is it? Well it's a little pot that has a sponge inside it which has nail polish remover soaked into it. All you do is put a nail in one at a time and twist the pot so that the sponge rubs against the nail and removes the polish. This is good if you have time to sit and do this but if you are in a hurry, then I would still just use a cotton pad and some nail polish remover from a bottle but for £1.00 I can't complain! I will definitely be buying this again though!

Pros:
  • Cheap
  • Easy to use
  • Does what it says.
Cons:
  • Takes a while to remove the polish
  • Can spill if not careful ( I thought the sponge soaks it all up completely....maybe I'm just being really picky :P)
