Provoke touch of silver twice a week brightening shampoo

Hey dolls sorry I haven't posted recently I ha no idea what to blog about for a while, until now. I recently to ombré my hair with bleached I love the effect it gave my hair however it left my hair will yellow and orange tones, I desperately wanted blonde ends so I decided to try out a purple shampoo which I had seen advertised recently. 

The consistency of the shampoo is really runny and quite messy. It lathers really well though to say it is not a creamy consistency. I left this shampoo in my hair for five minutes as advised on the packaging and then washed it out with warm water and then followed with my usual hair routine. 
Before:

After:



All in all I am quite impressed with my first impressions and it left my hair looking more blonde instead of being yellow. I will continue to use this product and to see if I notice any more difference. Although I would advise using a good conditioner or hair mask because it did leave my ends feeling dry. 

If you have tried this product please let me know what you thought,

L'oreal Paris Nude Magique CC Cream

Hey dolls I thouht today I would Review for you the L'oreal Paris Nude Magique CC Cream. This is a foundation which claims to neutralise redness for a perfect nude look. I have always been a fan of BB creams so I thought I would purchase this CC cream because I suffer from redness around my nose and cheek's. I was so excited about this product and I was let down so badly by it. The first thing I noticed about it was the colour which is green I found intriguing. this is because it has smart pigment capsules which then change colour when rubbed into the skin.

I purchased this foundation over a month ago and have since been trying to find a way to make it work for me, but I just can't find a way to make it work. For one the colour of it once rubbed into the skin is really bad it's almost orange which isn't a very unflattering natural skin colour.  
About - The CC cream rubbed into the back of my hand to see the colour difference.

This foundation doesn't come in any other skin shade's which make's it even worse.  I don't normally like to complain about a product but this is the one product I can't seem to understand. Why would they only make this product in one colour which is not even a fairly natural skin tone. It would look beautiful on a very tanned skin tone. But unfortunately I am very pale and therefore will be stickin to my trust worthy Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream.

Have you used this product and loved it?
