Well after being caught in the rain earlier the best thing to do was start an afternoon of pampering .. starting with one of my favourite intense conditioning treatments.
I've been using this for a while now and although I'll try others I keep going back. Serious conditioner is a weekly intensive hair conditioner containing sunflower seed oil for intense moisture - it's great for those dry ends. It's not really oily though and it's for all hair types.
I love the smell too. It's got a kind of minty smell which is really fresh but not sickly and overpowering. It leaves my hair with a really nice shine.
The best thing is the treatment doesn't take ages to work. Just apply after shampooing and distribute mainly through the mid-lengths to the ends - I always avoid my roots. Then just leave for 3 - 5 minutes and rinse.
You can pick this up at Gorgeous Shop right now for only £11.55. I really like the TIGI S-Factor range - what do you think?

Tantruth secret sun daily gradual tan
After the gorgeous weather the other week it was easy to be tricked into thinking it was summer. But we all knew that we would never catch a sun tan that would last.
I'm not really a big fan of fake tan. While I like to have some colour, I prefer moisturisers that contain a hint of tan. I've tried most of the ones on the high street - some which I quite like and others which I'd never use again. But while I was picking some hair colours up from a local hair and beauty supply store I saw this and thought I'd give it a go.
Secret sun says to apply daily and it will enhance your natural skin colour, leaving it with a gorgeous sunkissed glow. It contains avocado and shea butter, so it leaves your skin really hydrated. The colour is noticeable, but natural. The only thing I wasn't too fussed on was the smell - it's not terrible, but they've not tried to mask the fake tan smell like some brands do. More importantly though, the colour is lovely, it's easy to apply and it doesn't break the bank!
I paid about £5 for a 250ml bottle. I'd really recommend this if you like to have a natural looking tan all year round. Find out more about Tantruth products here

March 2012 Harrods edition GLOSSYBOX
So after all of the hype about the Burberry lipstick .. it finally arrived.
I'm over the moon with my Glossybox, so I'll keep it short and sweet. In my box there was a 30ml tube of Clarins extra firming body cream - I'm a huge fan of Clarins so this was a welcome edition to the box, a mini sample of Fan Di FENDI, an Erno Laszlo skincare sample set and the Burberry miniature lipstick in rosewood - it's really creamy, applies lovely.
My final and favourite product was the OJON damage reverse instant restorative hair serum, which has left my hair feeling silky smooth - absolutely love it
Can't wait for the next one to arrive. What did you think of this month's Glossybox?

Sanctuary brightening 30 minute facial in a box
I love at home skincare treatments. I've always enjoyed using Sanctuary skincare products so I thought I'd give their at home 30 minute facial kit a go.
The step by step pampering treatment comes in handy sized tubes which are big enough to get a few goes out of. They're designed to be used together so you notice a difference - and I really have.
The brightening facial kit includes 1 x 10ml polishing hot cloth cleanser, 1 x 10ml radiance exfoliator, 1 x 15 ml moisture boosting mask, 1 x 5ml brightening eye gel and 1 x 10ml illuminating moisture lotion and a muslin cloth.
It's a perfect way to try the full range of products without spending too much.
The cleanser was really easy to apply and my skin felt lovely and clean, ready for the exfoliator which has a fantastic texture, but not too harsh on my skin. The moisture mask is quite thick, so you don't need too much. Although, it was a quite difficult to remove it really moisturised my skin. Then I applied the eye-gel - it's very refreshing, before applying the moisturiser.
I'd really recommend this - for as little as just over £16 you can pick this up from most Boots stores.
