The New Naked 'Basic' Pallet | Urban Decay

Hello All

I don't think I know one beauty geek that doesn't own at least one 'Naked' Pallet from Urban decay... they are staples in my beauty collection and do me from everyday make-up to a glam night out on the town. And Urban Decay, in true from with the name sake, have recently brought out a stripped back 'basic' Pallet for Christmas with six stunning shades

(source)
The pallet is made up of all matte shades, perfect for everyday wear. The pallet currently is retailing for $32 Canadian ( $5.33 per shadow) I think thats pretty decent value, especially when all the shadows are so wearable and Urban Decay shadows are of great quality!!

I think this would make a perfect Christmas gift to for friends and family who may not want to invest in one of the larger pallets and I think I may have to pick it up as a little Christmas gift for myself!! 

Have any of you seen this product in stores yet or given it a try??

Thats All for Now
Sxx

P.s. is is currently retailing for £18 in Debenhams in the UK thats only £3 per shadow!!!!!!

Review | Got2b 'Blasting Freeze Spray'

Hey Guys!!!
As you may already know I am a MASSIVE fan of Fudge Urban Texture Blaster (Check out my blog post here) but being in Canada I am currently without my go-to 'big hair' product so have decided to shop around to see the other alternatives and I found this.....




The Got2b Glued 'Blasting Freeze Spray'

.The spray should be applied to the roots or anywhere you with to get volume! and here is how I got on with this product

Before '2nd day hair'

Apply 'Blasting Freezing Splay' to roots of hair

mess hair up a little with hand until desired look is achieved

The End look


As you might be able to tell with the sceptical look on my face, I was not a fan of this product!!  Firstly the bottle was too big and awkward to hold and spray! It was a very sticky product that I felt matted my hair rather than gave it volume! The Product did last long....but since it didn't really mould well the style that I was left with wasn't really what I wanted!
Unlike the Fudge Urban Texture blaster this product does not have a pleasant smell, it more resembled a cheap hairspray that you can buy from a dollar store!
This product is not really cheap, retailing at the $6 - $7 mark!


Apart from using this spray to lock in a crazy 'doo' at Halloween I doubt I will ever use it again!
I give this Product 1/5!

Have any of you tried any good texturising sprays??

Thats All for now

Beauty | Review: Fudge Urban Texture Blaster

Calling All Big Hair lovers.... The answer to voluminous, textured locks had arrived in a rather eye Catching Bright Orange Bottle!!!



As somebody who is always in the market from new hair products I discovered this little must have when buying stocking fillers for my sisters Christmas. Unlike myself, my sister had very fine straight hair and is always looking for something quick and hassle free to give that bit of extra volume and hold for her hair. 

Before
Apply Texture spray to roots of hair
Work product into roots
After | Big Hair in Seconds :)

After the first use she was raving about this product (very unlike my sister as she is no product geek like myself) the next time I was staying at her flat I desiced to see what all the fuss was about and give it a bash. I applied this spay to my natural curly/wavey hair and was amazed with the results!! The curls seem more defined, my hair stayed volumised all day (even in windy conditions) and the smell of this product was addictive!! 
I have now re-purchesed this product several times as the "Fudge Urban' range is often half price in Superdurg stored in the UK. Its great for all hair types to give texture as well as great hold for messy up do's like a messy bun! 
If you are anything like me or the many people that I have recommended this product to, you will soon be addicted to the style and smell of this hair product!! 

It usually RRP's for £6.99 but is currently only £3.47 at Superdrug!!

Thats all for now
