Update: Lee Stafford Hair Growth Range

Back around the middle of October I posted a First Impressions blog on the Lee Stafford Hair Growth Range.  If you wanted to take a quick look at it before reading this I'll put the link here.

I've been using these products every day now for a full month and just wanted to give you a quick update into my thoughts and whether my opinion had changed on them at all. 

The first thing I want to say is how quickly I noticed the condition of my hair changing.  I had the ends of my hair bleached in May and they were starting to look very dry and damaged.  I'd actually bought a hair dye to colour my hair back to one colour in the hope it would help but since using this range my hair has been looking and feeling so much healthier. 

I am still using the Intensive Hair Conditioning Treatment every day, in between shampoo and the regular conditioner, but I think this is more to do with the fact I am slightly addicted to this stuff and don't want to stop using it as my hair just feels so soft when I get out of the shower. 

In my original post I also said I was a bit worried about using the Scalp Serum on dry hair as my hair is very fine.  I bit the bullet and applied a few drops to my scalp after washing and just rubbed it gently into my roots and then followed with the usual Leave In Treatment just on the ends.  I combed it all through then blow-dried and it gave my hair instant volume at the roots.  I'm really, really surprised by this product, but I absolutely love it and have been using it this way ever since.

So I know it has definitely improved the condition of my hair, but has it made it grow any quicker?  Hmmm, I actually think it has.  I guess you could argue that over the course of a month your hair is going to grow anyway, but my hair is just sooo slow at growing which is why I think I struggle with it so badly but I've gone from the teeniest tiniest of little bunches to being able to credibly put it back all within four weeks.  I'm going to pop some pictures below taken at the very beginning and up until now just so you can see the results (please excuse the awful selfie pics, I am the worst at selfies of myself!!).

Overall, I absolutely love this range and cannot see myself using anything different for a very long time.  Maybe its because I'm happier with my hair that I believe it's growing faster but either way, I've never enjoyed anything about my hair before but at the moment I'm having a lot of fun growing it and I think that's great. 

I will say I get through this stuff pretty quickly.  I'm already on my second shampoo, intensive hair conditioning treatment and leave in treatment already but the bottles are fairly small so with everyday use they will get consumed quite quickly.  I will just make sure to stock up when it's 3 for £12 at Boots as I think this is the best deal for this range.

Do you have any tips for growing out your hair?

Brand Review: Essence Cosmetics

Image
Hey everyone, I wanted to keep with the theme of the last blog post and do another review on a really super affordable cosmetic brand that I'm so happy I discovered.  Essence Cosmetics is owned by the German company Cosnova Beauty and is a fun, affordable range of make up that you can buy here in the UK online or in high street shop, Wilkinsons.  I personally think it's along the same lines as the Miss Sporty range and would say their branding and affordability is aimed at the teenage market. I have never used anything from them before but had seen some pictures popping up on my Instagram feed and they all came with positive comments.  I knew there were a few things in my make up collection that I needed to update like mascara's, so I grabbed a cuppa and went online to their webpage (you can have a look here ) to have a look at the range of products and also if there were any reviews.  I have to say, pretty much all the reviews were great and the prices...

November Favourites!

Image
It's been fairly quiet on the "favourites" front this month.  I don't feel like I've really changed much since October in terms of make up and skincare routines.  To be honest, I think Christmas and Birthdays have been taking up a lot of my time and I've resolved to be so better organised this year as I always end up in a complete flap come Christmas Eve. I am still absolutely loving the Rimmel Only 1 Matte Lipsticks and the shade High Flyer has been on my lips pretty much every day.  I won't go into too much detail about these as I did a complete blog post dedicated to them a few weeks ago which I'll link here if you'd like to have a read. Another firm favourite has been the Rimmel Fix and Perfect primer. I really can't describe how nourished it makes my skin feel.  I'm nearly at the end of the bottle and will definitely re-purchase.  This has featured in my October favourites which I'll link here  if you want to have a more de...

March Favourites!

Image
Hey everyone, It's official!! It's Spring!! and still flipping freezing cold so my enthusiasm for the two mild days we had earlier this month has well and truly worn off! March has been a quiet month in terms of favourites for me.  Although I seem to have bought quite a few new make up and clothing items I haven't really had a chance to put them to good use.... yet! So here's a quick round-up of the few things I've been reaching for in the month of March: Nestling Oval Make Up Brushes I bought these in January and have really enjoyed using them.  I was sceptical at first and thought they were very gimmicky but they apply my foundation and concealer so effortlessly and I find them almost therapeutic to use.  I bought this set from Amazon and although I've stuck to using mainly the larger ones I am eager to try out the smaller ones for eyeshadow and highlighter. Essence Cosmetics Colour and Care Lipsticks I won't go into too much detail...
