Leesha Loves #2

Well I'm back with my second Leesha Loves posts and

the first post of 2014!! Happy new year everyone!

I was all ready to do a 2013 favourites post today and then realised that some of the things I wanted to put in it are at uni so I will have to get that done as soon as I get back! 

The 5 things I have been loving this week are...

1. Catching up with friends

Its been really nice this week to see my friends, especially now my best friend Chloe is back from her holiday. She leaves for the Navy in March so I'm trying to see her as much as I can before she goes! Can't believe it. We've been friends since we were about 4 and now she's off to the Navy. I'm so proud of her! Even if I will miss her like crazy!

2. Soft Hands

My hands absolutely hate winter. Every year I use different soap and different hand cream and nothing ever works no matter how much I spend! Soap and Glory Hand Food has always been one of those products that I tried once, probably when I didn't need it, figured it probably wasn't worth the hype and forgot about it soon after. However, it recently re-entered my life in a gift set that I got for christmas and I am so glad! It's fixing my hands and they smell amazing now too! Can't believe I ever forgot about it!

3. Feeling Fresh

Since I've been using my Nutribullet I have felt so much more healthy. Even just increasing the amount of fruit I eat and drinking more water has really helped and I feel a lot more alert and ready to face the day instead of feeling sluggish and tired all the time. 

4. Me Time

I only have a shower at uni and even at home I mostly just jump in the shower rather than having a bath.This week I decided to just scrap everything I had to do one evening and have a really nice, relaxing bath. I used Lush Products and tried out the James Brown Intense Treatment which I will be reviewing this week! It was nice to take some time out!

5. Straight(er) Hair!

My hair is currently at that stage where it wants to be long more than anything but it's not quite there. In fact, it's quite short. My hair is naturally straight but when it's growing it tends to flick out in the most random places and leave me looking like a bit of a Hairspray reject. My Dad bought my Mum the Nicky Clarke Frizz Control Styler for Christmas and although I wouldn't usually buy something like that for myself, the hot brush has really helped to tame my flicks! I also really like the straightening attachment because I feel like there's less direct heat that straighteners, especially when I don't really need them! 

I would love it if you could leave a comment and let me know even just 1 thing that you have been loving this week!

Kink Free Hair You Say?! - Popbands

Before i even start this review, why can't all my post come in envelopes like this?! I was recently sent a few Popband hair bands to review and i have to say, the packaging and attention to detail really caught my eye. 

For starters, each band comes individually packaged and on the card there are instructions on how to wear them which i think is a really nice touch. I felt like i was opening more than just an average hair band which was really nice! 

I received 2 leopard print larger bands, which I have been loving for keeping my fringe back when i do my makeup, as well as exercising, a beautiful mint green band with a lovely diamante charm. I think this one will be great for going out when you want your hair up but with a little twist! I also received a tie dye style pink band and a navy blue one. I have found the navy blue one comes in really handy for everyday.

Now they claim to be no kink, no rip hairbands. I was a little skeptical at first because as I'm sure most of you will agree, the little kink you get when you take down your hair can be the most annoying thing!. I have tried these a few times now in different situations and i can confirm...NO KINKS!! I know, a little bit over the top, but really, they didn't leave a single wave in my hair and didn't rip my hair at all. Even the one with the charm!

I do think they feel a little bit flimsy and so i wonder how long they will last in comparison to regular hair bands so i will have to report back on that note. Other than that i can't find any faults. I love all the colours and the variety and the different colours and prints allow you to use the hair bands as an accessory on your wrist and then transform your hair in seconds. I have really enjoyed trying out these products and I am certain that i will be checking out their range for my holiday this year!

Check these out at : http://thepopband.com - They are even offering free postage for UK orders!

Great Product
