Quick Fix Facials Review


I have always had troubles with my skin all the way through my teens and it was only recently that i have found what the problem was. I have very dry skin which i've always knew but it was not till recently that i found out that that was the reason that my skin appeared red and blotchy in areas- due to it being so dry. After that ive used so many heavy moisturisers and hydrating face masks in order to get my skin rehydrated. 

In the beginning i thought that forking out lots of money to get the best skin care was the only way to improve it, and dont get me wrong the Origins drink up intensive is a life saver and has completely improved my skin. However recently i have been testing some cheaper drugstore alternatives to see if they are just as effective at a more affordable price and boy am i glad i did!! While browsing in my local boots i found the Quick Fix Facial face mask range for around £3.00 a tube its a complete steal. 

This product comes in a range for all different skin types from acne prone skin to oily to extremely dry. Obviously i went for the one for dry skin and i would recommend it so any other dry skin sufferers as it is a skin saver and nearly as good as the Origins one at a fraction of the price.


The product is a thick consistancy that you apply thickly to the skin and leave on for around 10 minutes. When on the skin the product feels so refreshing and hydrating that i never want to take it off. The thing that i like most about this product is that it does not harden up to the point of not being able to move your face which i never enjoy. The product is easy to wash off and since it is clear it does not stain any cloth or towel you use unlike a mud mask or coloured mask that does.
 I have not tried any of the other ones from the range as they dont match my skin type but if they are anything like the one for dry skin i would definately try them out!


Let me know if any of you have tried out this product and loved it as much as i did, especially the other face masks from the range as i would love to give them a try!

Lots of Love

Hairextensionsale.com Review


I am always so envious of girls who have long thick hair as my hair is the type of hair that can only grow to a certain length without looking thin and ratty (sob sob). The fact that i am forever highlighting my hair with bleach just makes my hair grow less- so add a result of this i have opted to "fake it till i make it" and use clip in hair extensions so that i can achieve my dream of having long flowing hair. Dont get me wrong i love my short hair too and only wear my extensions on certain occasions but for girls who desire to have long hair then i would recommend purchasing them- they are life changing but *WARNING* very addictive haha

i purchased the 18 inch "Ultimate (140-150g) Bleach Blonde hair extensions from hairextensionsale.com and i am obsessed with them! the colour matches perfect and they blend in perfectly making them look so real. I have had so many compliments with them and people have even commented on how they thought it was my own hair- BONUS!

This is the second time that i have purchased extensions from hairextensionsale.com and i couldnt fault the company one bit. However the first time i purchased them i only purchased the Duluxe set (95g-135g) and i would recommend them more than the ultimate set if you have normal to thin hair like me as they are cheaper and more than enough hair! The Ultimate set only comes with 5 more single clips which i was disappointed with at first however it means you have more control over how much hair you wear so i now much prefer that. The clips are quite big which i looove as it grips onto your hair making them much more secure and not sticking out. Although the clips are large they do not feel heavy on your hair and i find them so comfortable to wear- even for full days without pain.

Normally when i wear these extensions i only wear the Duluxe pack, this comes with- one 4 clip, two 3 clips, two 2 clips and two 1 clips. This is more than enough hair and look so natural. I personally prefer to wear my extensions wavy/curly as it blends with your hair making it more natural and it also makes the extensions look much thicker. I only add in the extra 5 clips that came with the Ultimate set if i am going to partys or nights out just for that extra volume but even if i dont use them they are perfect to keep spare for if any of the clips break or become damaged.

My last set lasted for months and that was even after i dyed them, cut them, applied heat to them millions of times and left them in big tangled piles every night (extension wearers will understand haha) even after all of that, none of the clips became loose or fell of i purely binned them as they became too thin after over dying and washing them (my fault) so if you look after these extensions and dont dye them or wash them too much then you will definately get your moneys worth. Speaking about the price, these extensions are a complete bargain (the name even says so) and around £40 approx depending on the package you get, for the quality and amount of wear you get out of them no one could turn down that price.


So if you are on the hunt for some good quality reasonable priced extensions, first time or regular extensions wearer. Then i couldn't recommend this company enough, out of all the extensions i have bought these are by far the best and i will definately be repurchasing from this company when i need too. In no way was i sponsored to say any or this and i 100% purchased these with my own money, but felt the need to share with you how much i love this brand
