Review: Batiste Dry Shampoo

Hello everyone

Recently I received a couple products from Batiste Dry Shampoo to try out and review and here is what I think of them:

DSC01208

Batiste Tones

I received the dark tone of this product, I used it to get rid of oily roots and it gives a fresh feel to hair, as if you had just washed and dried it.
I thought it would leave a dark hairline as the spray has a dark colour to it as you can see on the picture:

DSC01217


Summary: it is a good product to use if you need to get rid of oily hair and it leaves no colour residue.
Cons: not scented, it might not suit your hair colour (though there are 2 lighter tones for this product).

Batiste Nude

This one is a non-aerosol version of the product. It comes in a powder form that you apply to your roots and massage into your hair just as you would the spray.
It does get rid of the oily hair but I didn't quite like this one as it is harder to blend into the hair, also as it is a white powder, it is visible if you do not blend it completely when you have dark hair like me.

And last but not least

Batiste Dry Shampoo Aerosol in Tropical

This version of Batiste Dry Shampoo has no added colour to it, so when you apply it, it goes invisible on your hair, it gets rid of oily hair and has a lovely coconut scent to it.
I think this one is my favourite so far because of it's scent.

Batiste Dry Shampoo products are easy to use and do what they claim on the package, revitalize your hair making it look clean by getting rid of the oily roots and some of their versions have a scent.

I would recomment this product if you are going on a trip, camping or a festival, or any place where you know you won't be able to wash your hair but you need it to look nice and clean ;)

Have you used any of Batiste Dry Shampoo products?
what did you think?

I think it's nice but I would not pay that much for a candle... ever haha.

A year of make up in one day

The dutch directors Lernert & Sander decided to experiment with make up, elaborating an extreme make over!

Mission Statement: We wanted to apply 365 layers of makeup in one day to see how much is needed to go from a natural look to an outrageous one.

Production time: It was a relaxed shoot but it took us nearly nine hours non-stop to apply all the layers to Hannelore’s face.

Magic ingredients: Seven bottles of Foundation S103; two bottles of Creamy Eyes E107; three Milky Lips L205 pens; and two bottles of Blush S301. All together 228.40ml of makeup.


Some behind the scenes pictures:

Review: Travel Size E25 Sigma Brush

Yesterday I received a package in the mail yay!

I was really excited to find out it was my Travel Size E25 Sigma Brush ;D

As a Sigma Beauty Affiliate, I got the chance to receive this brush as a gift :)
DSC01198

The E25 is an oval-shaped brush with gently chiseled sides. It is used to blend and soften the look of powder or cream shadows and it is ideal to apply eye shadow primer, base eye shadow colors, and blend harsh lines.

It is about 12cm long, and it is the travel version of the E25.

Here is a little test I did with the brush, using bourjois eyeshadow

(Left: blended, right: not blended)

As you can see it does a really good work blending the shadow, another thing I noticed is that the bristles are really soft, so I will definitely be using it from now on.

I will be hosting a giveaway for a brand new Sigma Travel Size E25 Brush just for YOU really soon
But if you can not wait to get your hands on this little beauty, you can get your own full sized E25 blending brush here!

Dry'n Shape System by Sigma Beauty

This is a brand new product by Sigma



If you have make up brushes, you know how important it is to keep them clean to maintain your skin healthy... but if you're tired of waiting for your brushes to dry after you wash them, this is the product for you ;)

The Sigma Beauty Dry’n Shape system was designed to completely dry and shape your most dense brushes within 4 to 6 hours, guaranteed. It is an easy, quick, and effective way to quickly dry and shape your makeup brushes.

Follow these three easy steps for best results:

STEP 1:
Wash your brushes using a mild shampoo or brush cleanser.

STEP 2:
Gently press the bristles to remove any excess water. Place the clean, damp brushes into the Dry’n Shape using the smallest band the brush will fit into. Make sure that all bristles are firmly compressed.

STEP 3:
Wait 4 to 6 hours and your brushes will be completely dry and ready to use! In addition to being completely dry, the bristles will be reshaped to their original form. Your brushes will be perfect for your makeup application!

You can get yours by clicking here, or if you would like to get some nice make up brushes, click here.

What do you think about the Dry'n Shape system?
