It’s time to bundle together the best of beauty, fashion and everything in between from the past seven days. Edited down to five of the top products, videos, posts, releases and the rest that have had me clicking away:
1. Ruth’s Dry Shampoo that rocks. All my dry shampoo dreams have finally come true. A volume-boosting, grease-mopping fine mist that transforms second day hair into a thing of Alexa Chung beauty without the grey root residue is finally a reality thanks to Ruth Crilly’s Colab range. I seriously cannot pick a favourite scent (…maybe Tokyo).
2. Lush lovin’. After mine and Lily’s lush lovin’ section of our latest Beauty Chat video, we headed to Lush and promptly filled our baskets with our old favourites. I showed the contents in my past Weekly Vlog, but the main purchase was for my Dad. A restock of his favourite shower gel – Snow Fairy – yes, really.
3. The person whose YouTube videos I leave till last. Sandra’s. Always. I’ve loved her videos for years and just when you thought she couldn’t get more beautiful, she ups her camera game and in the HD arena she looks even more stunning. One to watch if you don’t already and trust me – save the best till last.
4. A big thumbs up to Dior’s newest base drop. I knew this one would be good. It’s called ‘Star’ so the formula had to be pretty spectacular to live up to the name and it sure does, delivering medium coverage slightly-dewy, slightly-satiny finished skin that has a bit more longevity that my other juicy-faced offerings. A full review is in the works.
5. Yes to yoga. Yoga with Adrienne has been a bit of a revelation for me in the fitness department. I’m not the most flexible of persons (I can’t even touch my toes or get into a ‘downward dog’), but I’ve noticed myself getting a little more stretchy and stronger even just with two weeks or so of giving some of Adrienne’s videos a go. It’s a nice relaxing accompaniment to my running training even if I can’t laugh without it being painful for a few days after doing one of her workouts.
