MissGuided Lipsplash & Happy Hump Day!

Hi my lovelies,
For my entertainment on the flight to Marrakech I got the April issue of Cosmopolitan(UK). Doesn't Beyone look stunning on the cover? The magazine also came with a lovely freebie! A MissGuided Lipsplash. You could chose between three colours; clear, nude and red. I went for clear because already have quite a few nude and red ones and clear goes with anything right?
The lipgloss is really nice, not sticky and tastes a bit like vanilla! yum....
Get your copy of Cosmo (UK) now to score this FREE lipgloss or buy the lipgloss online via their website.

And because it's Wednesday this of course also means HAPPY HUMP DAY!
Here's my little message for today:

What a great quote by Marilyn! I ♥ her and think is a gorgeous carefree photo of her!
Hope you all have a wonderful hump day!
Btw I am loving the recent sunny blue skies in London; bring on spring woop woop :) xoxo

NOTD: Plum by Nails Inc

Just quickly sharing a recent Nail of the Day!
Wearing my Nails Inc nail polish in 'Plum'
This polish is part of the 2011 Diet Coke Collection, which I blogged about here.
Apologies for the messy application, was a quick morning jobby!
Also I do find that with darker polishes they tend to 'stain' a bit around the edges and are harder to apply neatly! Think this is a lovely colour though, very deep red/plum as the name would indicate :)

You spin me right round, baby, right round!

Don’t us girls always want, what we don’t have? Well, being a naturally straight haired girl, I am always on a mission to find great products that give me that perfect sexy wavy beach hair look that I adore so much! I usually curl my hair with my GHD’s (my straightening iron of choice!) and I have to say I have become pretty quick and good at creating curls this way but I still find the curls a little too ‘perfect’. Sometimes I just crave to have perfectly messy boho hair; like the Olsen twins!
You see what I mean??? ;) Love it ♥

So when over a year ago I kept reading reviews about this blow-dryer that could dry your hair and create a curls at the same time I was intrigued. What were they talking about? Well it’s the Remington Spin Curl Dryer. I read raving reviews and loved the results people were showing in pictures so from then on I was dying to get my little paws on one! But I was out of luck, I couldn’t get it anywhere in NZ or online! Then time passed, and I had kind of forgotten about this product until I stumbled across it at Sainsbury’s (my local supermarket) just before Christmas offered at ½ price! The normal price is £39.99 and I got it for £19.99! Because I needed a UK plugged dryer anyway this was ideal because the Remington Spin Curl is basically a normal blow dryer that comes with a wind tunnel attachment.
Instructions on how to use the Remington Spin Curl Dryer:
♥ Wash your hair the normal way and detangle it, so it’s nice and smooth
♥ Apply some curl enhancing mousse/spray to help create better and longer lasting curls. (I normally use my Aveda's Phomollient Styling Foam) 
♥ Use the nozzle and blow dry your roots & fringe first!
♥ Then attach the spin curl (wind tunnel) attachment..
♥ Section your hair, starting at the bottom and feed small sections of your hair into the cylinder (one at a time) and turn the dryer on its most powerful setting and highest speed. You can use small or chunkier sections, depending on how ‘tight’ you want the curls to be.
♥ Let each section of hair get twirled around for about 20 seconds while you slowly move the dryer up and down.
♥ Don’t be scared (I was initially too) but there’s nothing that your hair can get stuck in. It’s just a tube and the air will spin your hair and twist the sections so they come out looking like dreadlocks!
♥ Continue doing all your hair until you pretty much look like a rastafari! See below :)
Now all you have to do is just let the dreadlocks cool down. When cool gently separate them (with your hands) to create that soft natural wave! So this is me with my Olsen Twin hair!
Makeup I am wearing in these photos is: Bourjois Little Round Pots in #90 (white) #93 (gold) & #74 (dark brown). Blush is Well Dressed by MAC and on my lips is Sephora Super Shimmer Lipgloss in "Apricot Soufflé

So what do you think of my wavy hair?? I LOVE it! With my hair like this I feel so different and almost a bit like Shakira, haha! Definitely would recommend this product if you are after boho beachy hair – it's super easy to use and creates long lasting wavy hair. xoxo

Hi my lovelies!
We got this card at work, the other day, for this girl leaving to go travelling and it made me laugh so much :)
Wishing you all a very Happy Hump Day! I for sure am in a great mood today. Why?

Five star accommodation, massages, sunshine, shopping, sightseeing and delicious Moroccan food and cocktails: I say BRING IT ON :)
So that will be my valid excuse for being M.I.A. for the next few days! Hope you all have a great rest of your week and weekend! Toodles and talk soon :) xoxo Roz
