Batiste dry shampoo Medium and Brunette | Review

Batiste dry shampoo Medium and Brunette
I bought the Batiste dry shampoo in Medium and Brunette on my most recent trip to London. I had heard people talking about it and I decided to give it a go. I initially wanted to get the darkest shade they have since my hair is dark brown, but they were out of it so I got this one instead.

It is a great alternative to the original one if you have brown hair and you struggle with white residue whenever you use dry shampoo. Batiste makes the best dry shampoos (in my opinion) and this one is no different, the quality is the same as the other ones.

On the photo you can see what color it actually comes out when you spray it: an ashy brown color. If you have light brown hair, this is perfect for you. If you have dark brown hair, you should probably go for the darker shade (this one would work just fine if you work the product into your roots, but I reckon the other would work better).

The range includes one for blondes, two shades of brown (this one and a darker one) and a red head shade. You can find it at Boots for £3.99.

Review: NYX Cream Blush

I was requested to review NYX's cream blush by Carly after I showed it in my September Favorites. If any of you wants me to show a certain item, or have any kind of request, just tell me in the comments below :)

So let's jump into the review:

 Front of the blush: NYX Rouge Cream Blush


The color that I own is "Natural" (as you can see in the picture above). I only own one of these blushes because I've always been a little picky with cream beauty products, but I'm going to buy 2 more once I get the chance.
You can probably guess that I really liked this blush. It has the perfect color for every day looks.


You can see how creamy it is, but it feels very light when you apply it.
  • Size: it has a pretty good size and comes with a very good amount of product.
  • Price: we don't have NYX in my country, so I bought it from ebay. I paid more than its regular price ($6.50), but not too much ($9.50).
  • How I use it: In my opinion, it's better to apply it with your finger rather than using a brush. When I tried the brush, the color stayed just like a spot in my face and it didn't blend as well. So if you are considering buying one of these, use your fingers.
  • Shades: it comes in 13 different shades so you have a lot to choose from.
