Ruby & Millie Lipgloss £11
How many lip glosses does an average girl carry in her handbag? The answer is
three and how many does she actually use? One, and if we had to name it, it would
have to be Ruby & Millie. Why? Well, it's never happened before but I was using
the same gloss for the whole weekend, from Friday drinks & dinner to Monday
breakfast. (Which I still count as the weekend, I never like to think that the
weekend is over ;)
I especially love Lip Gloss Twilight in shade 42 (it's pink and lovely),
left my lips full, moist and kissable (not my words but my husbands.)
It is cheaper than MAC or Stilla but is equally good. As a MAC
junkie it's hard to admit that, but hey, that's the truth! Ruby & Millie
products are available from Boots.

Paul Labrecque Root Lifting Spray £16
I never believed in root lifting products. I always thought that the only way
to lift your roots is to get a decent blow dry, electric shocks or to back comb your
hair ( all would cause terrible damage in a long run). I have to say I've been terribly mistaken,
Paul Labrecque Root Lifting Spray will lift your roots perfectly, and not damage your hair. How perfect!
After 5 minutes of styling I looked great, although I say it myself. If you ask yourself if £16 is a
lot for a hair spray, I can tell you now that it's not. Your hair looks like it's just had a professional
blow dry. This costs more than a tenner and one spray will last at least 2 months (if you wash
you hair daily). Hairdressers beware! Available from Selfridges and Paul Labrecque's website

Bond 9 "The Hamptons" £ 135
Imagine this scenario, your boyfriend moves in and his stuff takes too much space.
What do you do?
As a good girlfriend you buy unisex products which you both can use. Like this
beautiful fragrance from Bond 9.
" The Hamptons" , named after the famous New York get away, which is also
called "Manhattan-by-the-sea. This is a unisex weekend scent, designed to be
long-lasting. I love the transparent ocean blue star shaped bottle which
is topped with a crisp nautical white cap. It smells like a lazy late summer
afternoon, sunsets , boats, you and him... ( Oh, I miss summer! I'm booking
my next holiday to The Hamptons now.) Available from Harrods.
