Introducing L’Oréal Paris Hair Expertise

L'Oréal Hair Expertise South Africa | All Dolled Up

Sulphates have become a hot topic in the beauty industry in the past few years, and as consumers become more aware of the chemicals used in the production of their favourite cosmetics and toiletries, so brands are responding with more natural formulations. Harsh sulphates like SLS strip the natural moisture in your hair, contributing to frizziness, split ends and damage to the hair shaft, so the new wave of more gentle shampoos and conditioners are much better for your hair and scalp. Until now, sulphate-free drugstore options were few and far between, but we were delighted to spot L’Oréal’s Hair…

What to Buy at the UK Drugstore

So, you’re planning a trip to London and you’ve taken an empty suitcase to fill with high street beauty presents to yourself (no, just me?) but you’re not sure where to start? To give you some direction, here’s a list of all the things I’ve bought and loved from Boots and Superdrug, many of which are regularly repurchased: Skincare Hydraluron Moisture Booster – I have three backups of this, that’s how much I love it. Hydraluron was available at Clicks until recently so now I have to get it overseas, but it’s an amazing product for dehydrated skin like mine.…

USA Beauty Haul

You may be confused by the title of this post, given that I have not been to America this year (I will leave that to Jules). However, my mule (read: boyfriend) has been there for approximately seven weeks, and as emotional compensation I am allowed to order whatever make-up my heart desires and he will bring it home for me. Lush. Let’s dive right in, shall we: Lorac PRO Palette: I have wanted this palette for the longest time, but it was only after watching Sharon Farrell’s latest video showing how she created 5 different looks with this palette, that I decided…

Favourite Five: Conditioners for Very Dry Hair

Best Conditioners for Very Dry Hair | All Dolled Up

“Crispy” and “deep fried” are both words that I love when they are used to describe some of my favourite foods but unfortunately they apply all to often to the state of my hair. Although my roots are very oily, the lengths and ends can sometimes resemble straw, having been treated to years of abuse from chemicals, hot tools and styling products. You can avoid a lifetime of split ends with the right maintenance however, and this starts with a good conditioner. I leave mine in for about 10 minutes whenever I wash my hair (which is most days) so…

May Favourites: Jules

L'Oréal StudioLine #TXT Supersizing Spray | All Dolled Up

This post should really be called “my most used travel products” as they were all on heavy rotation while I was away for most of last month. I completely overpacked (as usual) and even though this meant I had plenty of skincare and make-up options, I still used the same small set of products almost every day. Here are the highlights: Benefit Porefessional Face Primer The dinky little miniature of this world-famous primer came in really handy in the sweltering heat of New York. My make-up was literally melting off my face but a layer of this underneath my base…

Retail Box Redken Giveaway {CLOSED}

The lovely ladies at Retail Box recently got in touch with us to arrange a giveaway for All Dolled Up readers. We were told we could select a few products from the website and they would then speak to the chosen brand (we chose Redken) to see which of those products they would be willing to donate to the giveaway. Jules and spent ages trawling the site, compiling an epic list of products (on the assumption that Redken would only agree to a few) and sent it off to Retail Box. You can only imagine our delight when Redken not…
