perfume whisperer
I’m always looking for hair styling options that best help me accentuate my natural waves. Sometimes I’ll add a few waves around the crown with a round brush or curling rod. Sometimes I will just let it be. I usually only let it air dry in warmer weather as who wants to walk around waiting…
I love love love perfumed body products. Oils, lotions, creams and mists are all gorgeous ways to wear a perfume a little differently. Perfumed bath and body products are an easy way to give perfume as a gift as well. If you know what perfume someone wears, you can simply go out and get them…
If I had to describe my hair in three words it would be thick, wavy and unruly, in addition to being highlighted and colour treated. I’ve spent my life taming the beast on my head, slathering it in lotions and potions like a lunatic. I’m always looking for something that will reduce the amount of…
I’ve been in love with the scent of Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess since Tom Ford’s summer collection for Estee Lauder in 2007. He did a limited edition colour collection and fragrance, all called Azurée Soleil, and that was the debut of this gorgeous and sexy beachy scent.

The line was started by Mme Greyl and her husband in the late 60s and was the first hair care line to introduce vitamins into haircare. They created the first dandruff shampoo without coal tar. From their site: Designed and created with great…
Kerastase products are among my most favourite luxury hair lines. They are expensive, but worth it in that they do what they promise, and using them is always a luxe experience. Personally, Kérastase consistently leaves me thrilled with my hair. Some of the products contain silicones, which I normally try to avoid, but for some…
Little mini review for a terrific product I can’t imagine being without. Shu Uemura Wonder Worker Air Dry Spray is exactly that – a product to help with air drying and texture. A hybrid product that combings haircare with styling benefits, Wonder Worker is a multi-tasking leave in spray that perfects the hair’s surface to enhance…
I’ve always loved Phyto products, and how they have been on the cutting edge of haircare since their beginnings in 1967. The first Phyto product I used I used was ages ago, the original Phytoplage line which had an oil that protected hair from the sun. It was, and still is, an amazing product, and…
