My Hair Dilemma.

Hellloo! Been a while hasn't it, but quite frankly I've been enjoying doing absolutely nothing - oops. But something I did do was BLEACH MY HAIR.

Okay, I've wanted to dye my hair blonder for a really long time and after much consideration I was like screw it let's bleach my hair. So off I went to Boots and I purchased some products from 'Bleach London'. Total Bleach, White Toner and the Silver Shampoo and Conditioner (click for prices).

So I'm not a massive risk taker especially when it comes to my hair so this was a massive risk, my plan was to use Bleach Londons colours on my hair and be super cool - I'm not by any means cool in any way so THAT'S A DIFFICULT TASK.

It went so bright as you can see above. So, so bright. Almost too bright, I was shocked because it looked so damn weird! And in that moment I was like NOPE, and there I hibernated until I went to the hairdressers on Monday to sort an appointment for today (Wednesday). I was comparing myself to Eminem in his Slim Shady days, the sun, the light at the end of the tunnel and my yellow kitchen walls. In some lights it looked really nice and white it was cool!

There's no denying it's a sweet product, it goes on so well and leaves your hair feeling super nice which after reading a lot about other bleaches this is a massive plus of the product! It just didn't look cool on me, I'm not cool enough to pull off the grunge look Bleach London give off, although I very much wish I was. But if you're looking to buy it and try it then go for it! You can always dye it back, which is what I've done. I'll continue to use Bleach London's reconstruction mask, it is unreal, so nice!

Today I got it dyed back to almost my natural colour/a little bit darker and it's showing me that actually I might like it a little darker all the time it makes my skin look clear, is that weird?

I feel SO much better now and I'm out of my 5 day long hibernation that went on with my light bulb hair, haha! 

Have you ever bleached your hair and it not turned out the way you wanted?! Let me know, this has been a disastrous week! 

Bits and Pieces On A Budget.

Hello!

So I now have to live on a budget to get through the weeks, I'm sticking to it religiously, I write down everything and all that I aim to spend that week and that is super important at University, you really don't want to find yourself low on money. BUDGETING IS KEY. Now I want to treat myself every now and then, of course who doesn't want to treat themselves?! But unfortunately I can't afford the luxuries I'd freely buy back when I had no responsibilities, I can't quite justify walking into Topshop and spending a mad amount of money anymore (as much as I am dying to, please send me money to fund my Topshop lifestyle, I miss you so much Topshop…don't forget me, I'll be back when I'm rolling in money).

The other day I went to Westfield and needed to get some make up, mine was running low and I'm not even a huge make up wearer but it's better to stock up now before it was too late, am I right?!

I've never purchased Seventeen make up from Boots before but when there's a 3 for 2 offer how does one on a budget resist…

Miracle Matte Pressed Powder - Ivory Porcelain £3.99

Miracle Matte Concealer Stick - Extra Fair £3.99

Berry Crush Lip Stain - £4.99

And there you have it, 3 really lovely make up products, 3 for 2 therefore fairly cheap in my eyes! I walked out of Boots feeling quite satisfied with myself.

I then went onto H&M and got myself a t-shirt and I call this look black on black, holes on holes, basically my super trampy look that I actually love very much. (The top was £12.99 and I was mugged off and didn't get my student discount, damn you H&M)

There you have it, my little purchases for the week. Now back to spending my money primarily on food, oh university…you're rinsing me dry.
