ColourB4 - My Experience

I’ve been dying my hair the same red shade for years now and I love it, but for this Summer period I wanted something lighter and more natural. It was obvious that I would need to get rid of the red first before I could dye it a light brown shade. I chose ColourB4 and I actually used it on the 17th May as I was going on holiday the following weekend and I wanted nice and new natural hair to hit Great Yarmouth with!
ColourB4 is a hair colour remover dye that removes any dyed hair colour from your hair and leaves you with a lighter shade of a more natural colour. I got two boxes of the regular version and they are £9.99 each. It is a bit pricy, but it does work. You need to have clean hair before you can do it and then you just apply it onto your hair like hair dye. I got my sister to do my hair and she is did warn me that it smells like rotten eggs. Personally the smell didn’t bother me, but if I got the stronger version that might have made the difference! You can leave it on up to an hour and then you have the endless rinsing and buffing to do!
After I completed the long process, my ruby red hair magically transformed into a golden blondish brown shade! My sister used one and a half boxes on me, but I think just the one would have been enough.

I really liked the results I got and I will definitely be using it again next year, as I will be going red again in the Autumn and then possibly dark blonde next Summer. I would recommend it to anyone, but just bear in mind that it is a long process and patience would be the perfect virtue to possess in this instance.

My Eye Primers: The Verdict!

It has taken me a long time to put this altogether, but I have finally done it! I decided I wanted to share my thoughts on eye primers I had tried and it turned out that I had ten, so I thought I would test them and find out which one worked best for me. I have split them into two categories (High End/Low End) and I aim to rank them from #1 to #10 on which is the longest wearing. Let’s look at the primers I will be testing. HIGH END URBAN DECAY PRIMER POTION PRICE: £17.50 SIZE: 10ml SHADES: Original, Anti-ageing, Freebase, Eden, Fix, Minor Sin, Sin and Caffeine APPLICATION: Squeeze tube without a nozzle, but also has a sponge stick applicator PROMISES: Non-creasing, gives you vibrant eyeshadows WHERE TO BUY: UrbanDecay.co.uk (UK) & Sephora (USA) I like to think that this primer is my favourite as I love the packaging (purple is my favourite colour). It is potion bottle inspired and it is the first primer I remember ever seeing and wanting. The packa...

Perfume Power! - Next 'Paradise'

I first smelt this perfume after receiving it in a mini gift set about ten years ago and I have loved it ever since. This 100ml size is my first bottle of it though, other than the tester/sample size. The bottle is quite tall and it is a sort of clutch bag shape if you turn it on its side. The bottle is a simple design and you can easily see how much perfume you have. On mine the spray pump sometimes gets stuck in the band around the neck of the bottle, but the problem is easily solved. I can’t find a specific note list anywhere for this perfume, but on Next’s site it is described as, "a light fruity fragrance with white florals and green notes". To me it smells really fruity and fresh. It is also multifunctional because it is quite strong and sexy, so perfect for a night out, but it is also not too overpowering and smells fresh and fruity enough for day time wear. It is actually an eau de toilette, which means that it is less concentrated, but I find that it is st...
