How to: Go Out In PUBLIC Wearing NO Makeup!

Here's how to have the confidence to go out without makeup!
Bring attention to some other part of you!
If everyone's looking at, say your hair, then what does it matter if you're wearing makeup or not? You could also wear bright, attention-seeking clothes, but I prefer to pay more attention to my hair.
To get people to look at your hair make it big and bouncy! Straight hair doesn't usually have the same effect. What you really need is lots of volume. If you have naturally straight or limp hair don't worry! You can make it big and bouncy without heat and with nothing but a couple of hair bobbles!
I like to make my hair gorgeously wavy using the technique in this video:

In the morning when I take the bobbles out I just put Bed Head After Party smoothing cream through my hair to smooth out any kinks (optional step) and hairspray it to keep it wavy all day but you don't have to do this. My hair just doesn't keep very big waves in for long! :)

Go out with hair like this and everyone will think you're gorgeous! But if you're still unsure then read on!
First you've got to figure out what you're biggest makeup addiction is. My would probably be concealer to cover up the bags under my eyes. So if you have the same problem get rid of those bags! Use chilled teabags or chilled cucumber slices over your eyes for 20 mins or so a day, and use eye moisturiser!
If you're addicted to mascara then try just curling your lashes! Addicted to blusher? Pinch/gently slap your cheeks or do 5 mins dancing to get rosy cheeks! Bronzer? Sunbathe!! (But use suncream!) Concealer for spots? Go on my product reviews or home remedies for spots and get rid of them! Lipgloss/lipstick? Just use lipbalm (tinted if you want) or lipsalve!

Sorry!

Hey so I was in the middle of writing a Get The Look - Cheryl and Cher post when my screen cracked. I can only see half the screen and am hoping what I'm typing isn't complete crap. Will finish the post when I find a laptop to use, sorry!!

Monthly Favourites :)

So I'm gonna start telling you my favourite hair and skin products each month.

BedHead After Party Smoothing Cream
I completely swear by this hair product! You rub it in your hair when dry and it's supposed to make your hair silky and shiny. It's amazing! And really untangles your hair as well as smelling fantastic! As with all BedHead products it's a bit expensive but so worth it!

Sudocrem
Sudocrem clears spots up straight away! I put it on any spots every morning and evening and it makes them visibly reduced immediately! And sudocrem is really cheap as well! YAY!

A Quick and Easy Summery Hairstyle to Stop Those Autumn/Winter Blues!

This is a boho chic kinda style, really summery but I wear it now and it's autumn now so :)
Here's how to do it:

1. First I curled my hair (heat-free) using this method: http://www.youtube.com/user/YaYaLifestyle#p/u/0/V0yfJh-uImc But the clips fell out during the night so it went a bit wrong, it went more wavy and messy. Try this or one of her videos on wavy hair and mess it up real good!
2. I also put Bed Head After Party Smoothing Cream in my hair after step one (I swear by this product!!) you can add hairspray to keep the waves/curls all day if you want but I never do.
3. Throughout your hair create random little braids. They don't have to be all the way down to the bottom of your hair (vary the lengths) and don't secure them with a hair bobble at the bottom.
4. Gather all your hair up into a high, bouncy ponytail (look here for ponytails: http://crazyandslightlyobsessed.blogspot.com/2010/10/casual-hairstyles.html) but leave your fringe/side fringe out.
5. Braid some more pieces of hair when it's all in the bobble.
6. If you have a fringe you can either keep it as it is, or you can braid it (doesn't really work with a full fringe) and clip it to the side of your head with a cute hairclip! And voila!

This is a fun summer hairstyle that you can also wear to brighten up dreary winter days!! :D

A Simple Way To Get Almost Permanent Wavy/Straight Hair (Not the quickest or most effective way but read on :D)

If you have short wavy/curly hair (it may not work as well if you have really curly hair) and want straighter hair then grow it out. The length of the hair will make it heavier. In the morning you'll wake up and your hair will be it's natural texture but brush it and then an hour or so later your hair will be much straighter.
If you have long straight or wavy hair and want it curlier then cut it shorter. The decreased weight will make your hair wavier/curlier.
Not the best way as it will only make your hair straighter/curlier but it's a good way to make your hair more like you want it to be without having to do anything much to it.
I'll be posting about heat free ways to get curly/wavy hair soon, so keep checking back!
