The week that was....

If you follow me on Twitter you'll know that this week has mainly consisted of me counting down the days til my week off which officially begins tomorrow! I'm really looking forward to not having to set my alarm for 5.30am tomorrow morning!

I've also been trying to do as much packing as I can and today I moved some of my clothes and toiletries to my mum and dads but it still feels like I have a million and one things to do and pack.

And another Royal wedding happened on Saturday in Scotland. Zara Phillips tied the knot with Mike Tindall and I think she looked lovely. Dare I say it but I think I prefer her dress to Kate's (yes I'm prepared for the backlash from that comment!)


So even though I'm off work this week I still have a fun packed schedule but it'll still be better than being at work! Hahaha! Hope you all had a good week!

Batiste - What would I do without you?

I remember just before I went to uni, which was 5 years ago now, I bought my first bottle of Batiste dry shampoo and it was the tropical scent which is still my favourite by far, and I haven't looked back since.

I use it at least every other day and sometimes wonder what I'd do without it, it is seriously a staple haircare product for me.

Recently the range has been revamped with new designs for the cans, new sizes and an added addition of an XXL volume variety.


XXL volume
You use this the same way as the other dry shampoos - spray onto roots from a 30cm distance, massage in, brush and style. Buuuuut it contains a special volumising ingredient which will transform your hair into big, bouncy, volumised locks!

Original dry shampoo
The ordinary varieties come in a number of different scents including original, blush, tropical, boho, diva, fresh and three coloured ones for blonde, medium brown and dark brown hair.

Travel Batiste
Original, tropical and blush also come in handy travel sized cans which are ideal for shirt breaks, holidays, and your handbag.

Prices start at £1.55 for the travel sized can and they are available from Superdrug, Boots, Sainsbury's and Independent Pharmacies.

Haul - Boots and George at Asda

This is another haul post, not very exciting but I thought I'd show you anyway.

George at Asda
Cardigans - £14 each

I've worn the cream one a few times already and it's really nice and comfy and not that warm to wear in our 'summer' weather.


Boots
Bourjois smoky eyes eyeshadows - £7.99
So Laque nail polishes - £5.99 each

Bourjois is currently on 3 for 2 so it only cost me £13.98 but I used my Boots points so actually they were free and I got a free pair of sunglasses!

The week that was....

This week has mainly consisted of work, work and more work. And sorting out my stuff ready for moving.

My things from the Next sale arrived and a haul post will be up soon!

Chris moved out on Friday so I'm now home alone which is good as I can finally start to get my stuff sorted and packed properly.

Next week is my last week at work and then I get a week off, soooo looking forward to it!

And finally some photos because this weeks post is rubbish!
