Pantene Ice Shine Shampoo and Conditioner Review

Hello! I picked up these massive bottles of Pantene Ice Shine shampoo and conditioner and thought I should do a review for you.


This was my first time using these products and I have to admit that it was also my first time to use Pantene. But I had heard that they make some of the best low- end products on the market. Upon using them, the first thing I noticed was how amazing they smelt! A really clean, fresh smell which stayed in my hair even when my hair had dried. I usually go for hair products that promise added volume and thickening but I was curious about the idea of 'shiney' hair. As my hair has some natural highlights in them (I have never died my hair) I already do have a glossy appearence to my hair but I was intrigued by the idea of enhancing and 'transforming tired, dull hair'. Although I did notice that my hair felt light and smooth, I didn't notice much of an improvement to the shininess of my hair. However, I found that my hair didn't get as greasy as it usually does on the 2nd day after washing (I wash my hair every other day).

To conclude, I would really recommend this if you have dry hair as it adds moisture but not enough to make your hair greasy. But for me this just didn't add enough volume so I will continue my search for the perfect shampoo and conditioner combo :) Thanks for reading!

Mascara Overview :)

Just thought I would give you an idea of the mascaras that I have and my opinions on them :)

(Left to Right) Rimmel Sexy Curves, Benefit Bad Gal, Gosh  Lift and Perfect, Gosh Amazing Length and Build, Rimmel Lash Accelerator, Max Factor False Lash Effect

(Top to Bottom) Gosh Lift and Perfect, Benefit Bad Gal,  Rimmel Sexy Curves

(Left to Right) Gosh Amazing Length and Build, Rimmel Lash Accelerator, Max Factor False Lash Effect
1. Rimmel Sexy Curves - Dont really like this, found it clumpy and hard to work with


2. Benefit Bad Gal - Really like this for a natural day lashes, doesn't clump



3. Gosh Lift and Perfect - I have this in the waterproof version and i find it a bit hard to work with but it stays on well when I go swimming



4. Gosh Amazing Length and Build - This is also in waterproof but this is my favoured waterproof mascara as it separates the lashes more.

5. Rimmel Lash Accelerator - Really like this mascara and i feel it has made my lashes stronger and longer.


6. My all time favourite mascara...Maxfactor False Lash Effect! Really love everything about this mascara, it seperates, lengthens and adds volume. It is said to be a dupe for Covergirl Lash Blast which isn't available in the UK sadly.

Thanks for reading!

Free Nails Inc. Nail Polish!

When my December 2010 issue of Glamour Magazine in the UK came landed on my door may I was delighted to see a free full-sized bottle of Nails Inc. nail polish! There were four beautiful autumnal shades to pick from but I got Jermyn Street which is a lovely taupey, mushroomy 'greige' colour. 


Please ignore the state of my nails!



I find the quality on Nails Inc. nail polishes quite questionable sometimes as some are amazing whereas others are gloopy and have an uneven texture. But I found that after two coats I get the perfect finish to my nails :) The drying time is excellent and I was left with a smudge-free, long lasting effect.

I hope you found this helpful and please let me know your favourite Nails Inc. polishes!
