#skiphairwashdaysa WITH ME & GIVEAWAY! It is such

#skiphairwashdaysa WITH ME & GIVEAWAY!

It is such a mission to go through the full process of washing, drying, styling hair, & life is just too busy.

So, when I want to save time & move onto my plans for the day, I reach for my @batiste_hair Dry Shampoo.

It's such a quick process!

• Separate hair into sections & spray on your chosen variant of dry shampoo from @batiste_hair
• Leave for 5 minutes, then gently massage into your scalp to absorb any extra oils, brush through & (if necessary) touch up your style!
• You can also apply your dry shampoo at night before bed, so it absorbs oils during the night 😉
• Add a little of the Volume dry shampoo for that extra oomph!

I used to wash my hair every second day, but thanks to years of using Batiste, I now only need to wet-wash every 3 or 4 days😱 It saves me so much time & has helped my hair health improve 👌🏼👌🏼 PLUS - with so many scents to choose from, there's something for everyone!

You can win 1 of 10 Batiste hampers for yourself too!

1. Search #skiphairwashdaysa on Instagram to see 100 Batiste Babes using Batiste Dry Shampoo
2. Drop a comment & let us know how many wet-wash days you could have saved this week if you used Batiste, & what you could have done with your extra time!
3. Tag 2 friends in the comments who you think should try Batiste
4. Follow @beauty_bulletin & @batiste_hair on Instagram

T's & C's apply. Competition closes 20 November 2023 @ 23:59pm. Winners will be announced on Beauty Bulletin Stories.

You can also try the Batiste Dry Shampoos for yourselves at selected @clicks_sa @dischem.beauty & @picknpay stores! Or just shop the link in my bio 😉

Once again - a full month of ups & downs - but we're Rugby World Cup Champions again!

I SKIPPED HAIR WASH DAY! I was one of those girls

WATCH MY #realsmilesrealwhitening IN ACTION! I ha

WATCH MY #realsmilesrealwhitening IN ACTION!

I have been LOVING this new combo from @colgatesa as I've long been a fan of the Optic White range.

I use the Optic White Oxygen toothpaste morning & evening (for at least 2 mintues) for sparkling white, clean teeth - & you see real results in just 3 days!

The Optic White Overnight Whitening pen reverses up to 15 years of stains, & gets to work immediately, but in the morning you wake up to that Hollywood smile - that improves with each use! I also make sure I wipe my pen off after each use with a clean tissue. I love how the pen doesn't leave a heavy chemical after taste in my mouth too.

I've experienced almost zero sensitivity with these products, & they've been the closest I've come to that professional whitening result - & with affordable, everyday products!

PLUS - both products are enamel safe!

Don't forget you can try these products for yourselves - there's a link to purchase in my bio, but they're available in stores too (they have a combo promotion on at @dischem_pharmacies right now!)

HALLOWEEN COCKTAIL NIGHT We celebrated our third

HALLOWEEN COCKTAIL NIGHT

We celebrated our third themed cocktail night recently, & it obviously had to be spooky!

I ordered gorgeous Gothic cookies from @the.littlebiscuit & included them in the little hangover packs for each lady, which HAD to have a @oneco.sa Black Lemonade to fight that headache the next day (tip is to drink it before you go to bed, & you'll wake up feeling way more fresh than you probably deserve 😉🤣)

We had some super tasty snacks, some of which were themed too.

COCKTAILS:-

TRISTY - Vampires Blood
CHANEL - Eye Candy shooter
CHERESE - The Hills Have Eyes
SAHARA - Witches Brew
SHIV - Monsterita
CHERAY - Damaged Brains shooter

A wickedly fun time was had by all - but more so by hubby, as he dumped part of our 'decor' with the rest of the trash on 31st (Halloween & our rubbish collection day) 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
