Magnetic Nail Polish

I love a nail trend and was super excited when I heard about magnetic polish! I invested and immediately tried it out...disaster! Then I did a little research and got some tips on technique and was a little happier. I went for Nails Inc in Trafalgar Square which is a metallic grey, sort of a gun metal gray. Other colours available from Nails Inc are Houses of Parliament, purple and Whitehall, greeny blue. I've used this polish a few times now and it's tricky to get a good result, but I think it looks amazing when you do! The trick is to apply 1 coat and let it dry, then do a second coat using the magnet. You need to work fast with the magnet so paint 1 nail at a time, then hold the magnet over the nail for about a minute. The range is available at at £13 each. Love you Sus xxx

Moroccanoil

I was a bit sceptical when I kept hearing about Moroccanoil. Surely oil would give me greasy hair? 

Then 2 people personally recommended it to me (including my hairdresser), so I thought why not? You can buy a 25ml bottle on www.feelunique.com for £12.85. There are 2 versions available and I went for the fine and light coloured hair version. I received it just before Christmas and have used it 3/4 times a week since then and only got through about 1/4 of the bottle - pretty damn impressive.



I use a blob about the size of a 1p and work it through my hair before blow drying. I love love love the way it leaves my hair feeling. Now, I'm pretty lazy about blow drying my hair and tend to just blast it and then straighten - not good for the condition of my hair at all but with this stuff I'm left with silky soft hair! 

I think it's pretty good value when you take into account how long the bottle will last - I'm guessing 3-4 months
