Review | GHD Air Hairdryer

Hello my lovelies, I hope you all had a fabulous weekend!

I've never been fussy when it comes to a hairdryer as my cheapy from Argos always did the trick so you can imagine my surprise when I opened the GHD Air on Christmas day. My lovely boyfriend had come up trumps and picked the Daddy of all hairdryers, i'm surprised he even knows what a hairdryer is!

I've been using this hairdryer constantly since receiving it on Christmas day so thought it was about time I popped up a review.

The GHD Air comes packaged in a beautiful box, I almost feel guilty for not putting the box to better use. Inside you get two concentrator nozzles to help create different styles. The erganomic design makes for easy handling and maximum control.

I really can't fault the design of this hairdryer, it looks the part and is light enough for even the weakest of people like myself. No dead arm!

There are variable heat & power controls and the cool shot button is perfect for setting your hair in place. The professional strength 2100 watt motor & inbuilt ionic technology have made drying my hair a breeze, no pun intended!

My hair goes from towel dry to smooth and sleek in a matter of minutes, anything that gives me longer in bed in the morning is a winner in my books. Used in conjunction my GHD straighteners I finally feel I have my haircare dream team and I wouldn't swap them for the world now.

I can't fault the Air hairdryer at all, I know it comes with a hefty price tag but I really feel this is an investment and can see it lasting years.

The GHD Air is priced at £99 and can be purchased direct from GHD here with delivery included.

I'd love to know if you have this hairdryer & if so what you think of it.

Best of 2012 | Part 2...

Ahoy blogerinos!

This is part 2 of my favourite products of 2012, you can find part 1 here.

Here we go...

L'Oreal False Lash Telescopic Mascara

£10.99 - Available Here

Mascara is probably my most purchased make up product, I have a drawer full and yet can't stop buying them! I absolutely love this mascara and have repurchased it 4 times now, that's no mean feat for a mascara addict like myself! I love that it both lengthens and adds volume to my lashes whilst keeping the curl and it lasts all day without needing to be touched up. Can you tell I love this product?!

  

Soap & Glory The Righteous Butter

£10.50 - Available Here

This is another product that has featured in many previous favourite posts. I always have at least one of these knocking around due to the volume of Soap & Glory gift sets I receive at Christmas and I love it! There's nothing like slapping a layer of this on after a hot bath, nothing else leaves my skin feeling as soft and smelling so nice. I couldn't imagine not using it and will continue to use it forever!

Paco Rabanne Lady Million

£33.99+ - Available Here

I'm slightly addicted to perfume and have far too many in my collection. This was a present last Christmas and I'm just coming to the end of it now, sob! i'm rubbish at describing scents but if you haven't already tried this you must give this a whiff next time you're in town. I'm contemplating buying another bottle already!

Soap & Glory Hand Food

£5.00 - Available Here

This is another product that has featured in many of my favourites posts. For the price I really don't think you can beat this hand cream, it leaves my hands feeling baby soft and it smells amazing. I have 3 of these dotted around the house to encourage me to use it, I've even caught the boyfriend having a sneaky go of it when he thinks I'm not looking ;) 

GHD Scarlet Styler

£99.99

My lovely boyfriend bought me this for Christmas last year along with the matching hair dryer. I don't need to say too much about GHD's as I'm sure you've seen everyone who owns them singing their praises. I know they're a tad expensive but they can be used in so many different ways and I know people who have had theirs for years. I struggled to find this particular model online as it was limited edition but there's always a new collection so be sure to check on the GHD website.

So there we have my top 10 products of 2012! Most products mentioned are very popular on the blogging scene and for very good reason. If you haven't tried any of my top 10 I strongly recommend reading full reviews of them and giving them a go.

I'd love to know what your favourite products of 2012 were so be sure to leave a comment and let me know or leave me a link to your post!

Review: GHD Scarlet Collection Deluxe

Hello my lovelies, I hope you're all ready for the weekend!

I posted a couple of days ago saying that I had broken my camera, well, my boyfriend has lent me his super duper SLR and fixed mine in the process! Is it really sad that the first thought that came to mind when I broke it was 'OMG how am I going to blog?!?' =]

This is a review of one of my amazing Christmas presents, the GHD Scarlet Collection Deluxe. I was a very lucky girl and this was one of my presents from my lovely boyfriend.

As you can see the box is gorgeous. There is the outer black box with GHD printed on it & then a red satin box inside. Here is what you get inside...

♥ GHD gold classic styler with red plates.
♥ Limited edition travel hair dryer.
♥ Red heat proof satin clutch bag.
♥ 2 x GHD clips (not pictured.) 

What a lovely set! & how nice is the clutch bag?! I feel almost guilty just using it to store my GHD's!

GHD Limited Edition Travel Hair Dryer:

I was so happy to get a travel hair dryer, I spend alot of time between mine and my boyfriends & I hate lugging around a big hair dryer every time. They don't call this a travel hair dryer for nothing, when closed it's so compact it would fit in any weekend bag. I thought because of it being a travel dryer it wouldn't actually be very good when it came to drying hair, I was very wrong! I actually use this all the time now because it works so well. Big thumbs up from me!

GHD Gold Classic Styler - Red Plates:

These are simply amazing. I owned a set of GHD's 3-4 years ago and I cannot believe how much they have improved. They heat up in seconds, they are a lovely sleek design that feel nice to use & they leave my hair looking better than ever. I'm the first to admit that I'm not great when it comes to hair, I've never really been very good at curling or creating any other style than straight or up. With these I can curl, wave and straighten my hair with ease. As you can see in the above picture they come with a heat resistant sleeve that slides onto the plate end, this is great if you're like me & rush out of the door after getting ready, no more worrying if your house is going to burn down!

Overall I think this is a fabulous set either for yourself or as a gift, I can't believe my boyfriend did so well choosing it!

I'm afraid I don't know the price of the set as it was bought as a gift but I'm sure it will be on the GHD website.

What is your straightener of choice?
