Autumn/Winter Wishlist 2016: Hair + Nails

Hi everyone!

I am back with the penultimate post in my wishlist series!

Today its all about Hair and Nail products, there are so many new things that will be out this season and I have also chosen a few things that have been around for a long while!

1) Bumble and Bumble - Surf Spray. £22.00 for 125ml.

I always go past this counter in Boots and look at this spray yet I never actually buy it? Supposedly this spray adds texture, volume and a matte finish to hair, which is perfect because I am totally digging my shorter hair length but I still need volume! Have any of you guys tried this spray? Is it worth the hype?


2) For Your Nails Only Polishes. - Between £3.75 - £4.75. 

I saw a piece online about this company, and I was immediately hooked! This is a small company run by Sharon in Scotland who makes and sells her own polishes. Her Instagram page is so divine, she sells glitter polishes, colour changing polishes and others which are all beautiful. She makes them in small batches and they sell out pretty quickly. I am so happy to see her get amazing recognition.

3) Origins - Calm to Your Senses™ Comforting Conditioning Hair Mask - £20.70. 


I really love Origins, I use a lot of their skincare and bodycare, all of their ingredients work well with my skin too! This hair mask restores hair and adds softness and shine to the tresses. A definite treat for all hair types!

4) Smith & Cult Nail Lacquer in Bitter Buddhist. £19.00


" Delivering smooth, even coverage and a stunning spectrum of covetable colours, the high-performance formula is high-shine, long-wear and 5-free." Every single one of the polishes in this range are so lovely! I want to start collecting these slowly, and can we just take a moment to talk about how pretty the bottles are?!. Bitter Buddhist is a lovely muted sage/mint green colour and it is awesome for this season.

5) GHD Platinum White Hair Styler. £165.00 


I own a pair of GHDs that have now long retired, they hardly work and I just want to invest in some new ones! These look like they can really cut the time on straightening/styling your hair. I know a few people that own these and  they have said that they are definitely worth the price tag!

6) Nails Inc Superfood Repair Oil.. £15.00 (14ml) 


I have never tried any kind of repair oils for my nails before but they definitely need some TLC. This "is a nourishing treatment for the nails and cuticles that replenishes and refreshes....
Infused with Sweet Almond, Argan and Rose Hip Oils, Superfood Repair Oil boosts the nails full of hydration and Vitamin A, providing a stronger, healthier and glossier finish, whilst simultaneously conditioning the cuticles..."

There you have it - the products that are on my wishlist. Have any of you guys tried any of these? 
What would you recommend for Hair and Nail products these up coming season? 

I hope you all have a lovely week ahead!

Take care and much love!

NOTD

I decided to try on the imPRESS nails I got in my February Glossybox.
These were so easy to apply as they are pre-glued and last 7 days. I love the crackle effect and I will definitely be purchasing more of these in other colours and styles!

Nails of the day.

Today I am sporting one of my new Nail Varnishes from ALDO. I picked this up in an outlet centre in Buffalo, New York whilst on my trip abroad. I will be honest I had no idea that they even did Nail Varnish but their colour selection was pretty amazing. So I need to look around the UK for some of them.

This colour is called "Shy Rose" and it is a rose/peach type of colour. Perfect for those toned down days where you don't want to have dramatic nails. I love this nail varnish immensely, the colour is great and it lasts for days without chipping. I would describe it as more of a peachy/beige than a rose actually.


Have any of you tried the ALDO Nail Lacquer range? If so what are your thoughts?

Hope you are all having a nice Sunday evening. :)

P.S. I also got given these AMAZING flats as a gift from my family whilst I was out there. They are so beautiful! They are called the ALDO 'Lunter' flats and they are of a Satin Finish. I cannot wait to wear these in the upcoming winter parties. :D
