TRY THIS TUESDAY | David Babaii Boho Beach Spray


Girls, go out and get yourself a bottle of this David Babaii Boho Beach Spray!

This product has completely transformed my fine, flat and limp hair woes. 

Basically a sea salt spray, this product is fantastic for texturising and adding more grip to your hair
 without the muck and weight of other texturising/volumising hair products. 
Slightly on the pricier and luxury end of things, this product retails at Priceline for $24.99 AUD. 

As suggested - 
"Spray on wet hair to achieve lift and hold or dry hair to create texture or volume."
This product works very well with styling tools - whether you want straight hair, curls or natural beach waves.
It certainly doesn't leave your hair feeling greasy, sticky, or crunchy.

A simple, yet sophisticated spray pump bottle design dispenses the perfect amount of product through a fine mist.
I like to spray this all over my wet hair (2-3 pumps will suffice), while also focusing on the roots at the top of my head. 
I find this works best for my fine hair as it holds my part in place while adding awesome volume and texture to my hairstyle.
My hair has so much more umph to it now throughout the day, and with every "juzz" it just gets better and better!

The product does have a subtle coconut floral scent (which I generally dislike) but thankfully it is definitely not offensive nor do I find that it lingers on.

An easy way to get that messy (but tamed) beach hair from the comfort of your home and every day of the year!

I've heard great things about David Babaii haircare products and I'm keen to try a few others products in the collection.

HAIR BITS | Buns and Scrunchies


After work, hair goes straight up! 
There's no better feeling than pulling all that hair away from your face after a long day.
For me, it's an instant pick me up and I automatically feel relaxed and very much at home.
It also makes removing makeup and washing my face much easier!

I've been going old skool lately with scrunchies that I've pulled out from mum's collection from when I was little. Too cute!
Scrunchies are great for buns as they hold a heck of a lot more hair in place than a normal hair tie. Plus, they're super cute!

TRY THIS TUESDAY | Innoxa One & All Intensive Hand & Nail Rescue


HELLO Belles! I'm bringing you something fun and different today with my new Try This Tuesday blog post. As a weekly commitment, every Tuesday I will feature a blog post about a product I like and would recommend to you! 

Today, it's the Innoxa One & All Intensive Hand & Nail Rescue.
I bought this from Chemist Warehouse for $3.99 AUD a few weeks ago when I was desperately in need of relief for my dry hands and fingers. To my surprise, this is hands down (no pun intended), one of the nicest hand creams I've used. Unlike many hand creams I've tried, this one really moisturises and leaves my skin, as well as cuticles, feeling super soft and moisturised for longer throughout the day. It does feel slightly greasier at first compared to other hand creams that are "fast absorbing", but I personally don't mind it and I find the product actually does absorb into the skin - it just maintains that soft, smooth feeling of freshly applied lotion. What I like most about this product is that it moisturises my cuticles! Often hand creams only really moisturise the skin on your hands, however this one really helps to soften my cuticles. Worth checking out!

INNOXA PRODUCTS ARE NOT TESTED ON ANIMALS.

NAILS OF THE WEEK |


Despite the (somewhat) warmer Spring weather here in Melbourne,
 I couldn't resist painting my nails with this gorgeous polish I pulled out from my collection! 

It's the Maybelline Forever Strong Super Stay 7 Days Gel Nail Colour in ' 270 Ever Burgundy' | $7.95 AUD

This polish is by far the longest lasting nail polish I've used.
 It maintains its shine throughout wear and doesn't chip or fade around the edge of my nails. 

I would highly recommend this line of polish for those of you, like me,
 who find that their nail polish can't last more than two days before it starts to chip or peel -
 EVEN if you do use expensive nail base/topcoats or avoid excessive hands in water.

Photo was taken at the end of a full week.
