I am a very lazy person when it comes to styling my hair so I usually just leave it naturally (straight). But guys, when I found out that things like auto-rotating curling irons exist, which means that you don't need to curl your hair around the wand by yourself, it will do it for you,  I understood it was made for girls like me, who want something more fancy, but still don't want to spend so much energy/time achieving it.

*before jumping right in I wanted to make a quick announcement, I created a Facebook page (here) for my blog, where I will share my newest blog posts so you could never miss out on one, sneak peaks and a lot more. So please make sure to press a like on that page! Press here*

Just a couple of days ago in the mail I got delivered my eagerly awaited Ruby Auto Rotating Curler by Irresistible Me. Irresistible Me is based in New York, USA and they sell 100% Remy hair clip-in extensions, wigs, hair accessories, tools and even hair care products! The tool came in a neat and safely packed (which is very important considering the fact that it had to make its way all across the ocean) black sleek box. By the way, not only the tool came in an excellent condition, it also came very quickly (8 days in total)


When you open the box you can see many features listed that the curler has:
• diamond/ceramic/tourmaline technology - diamond coating enhances its durability and heat transfer. Tourmaline gemstone is a natural source of negative ions and far-infrared heat, which provides faster styling. Negative ions eliminate frizz and lock in moisture by closing the cuticle to create smooth, shiny hair.
• automatic curling iron - there are 3 buttons ( red, "L" and "R").  First, you clasp the end of your hair between the clasp and then press and hold the "L" button to left/clockwise rotate the barrel or the "R" button for automatic right/counterclockwise rotation. Then you just release the button to stop rotating. After auto rotating press the red reset button, which returns the barrel to its initial position and this way saves your time.


• auto shut off - the curler has a one hour auto sleep function that will put the curler into standby mode.
• universal voltage - but depending on there you live you will need a plug adapter, because it comes with a USA power plug.


• rotating auto recovery
• fast heat up - it claims to heat up in less than a minute!
• ergonomic design 
• light weight tool - it's not heavy, but still feels durable and sturdy in the hands.
• 360° rotating barrel
• 2,5 m power cord
*• 5 adjustable temperature options: 260°F, 300°F, 340°F, 380°F and 410°F (or 127°C, 149°C, 171°C, 193°C and 210°C) - it's recommended to use low heat for hair that has been color treated or is fragile or damaged.


Overall,
although the whole technology really isn't that complicated, thanks to the booklet it was easy to figure out how the curler works. I noticed it wasn't enough to keep my hair wrapped for 5-10 seconds. For loose soft curls effect I have to keep my hair wrapped for at least 20 seconds (340°F) and in the booklet indicated maximum time is 10 seconds! I don't know whether my hair is super thick or what, but 10 seconds didn't work out for me. I will admit, I am not a fan of tight curls so picking thicker sections of hair and holding them for about 20 seconds is a perfect combo for my beloved loose beachy soft curles. By the way, I plan on doing a video including this hair styler in the near future where I can show you how I curl my hair and how I style my curls! So far I really enjoy using Ruby!


If you are interested in buying this Ruby Auto Rotating Curler click here. Now it cost $119, but sometimes it is given a discount so keep your eyes wide open! By the way, the Irresistibleme.com is giving 20% off on your first order so you can get this curler or any other product from this website for a lot cheaper! Anyways, thank you so much for reading, have a lovely day/night and I will speak to you soon, bye!

Hello! I am so excited to announce that I finally got my first MAC lipstick! Many beauty bloggers say that MAC lipsticks are iconic products that made MAC famous so I am really pumped to try them out and see if they are truly worth the hype. This may look strange, but instead of getting a natural everyday colour I got a quite dramatic one. It's in shade 'Stone' and it's matte. As MAC describes it, it's a muted greyish taupe brown. And I love it! A makeup look rocking this shade is coming up soon. Stay tuned!

Hello! Today I wanted to share with you one of my recent discoveries - hair care series for fine, flat hair, which is missing moisture and volume! This line's aim is to leave the hair intensely moisturised and with up to 95% more volume. When I saw this line, I immediately understood that it's made for me. I have straight, flat, fine and dry hair with no body at all. It has always been like this and I thought that there is no solution for it, but appears that there is. It's Dove Advanced Hair Series Oxygen & Moisture.
This specific series comes with 4 different products: shampoo, conditioner, Souffle treatment and root lift spray.
On the daily basis, I use shampoo and conditioner and several times per week I use root lifting spray, which are all great products and work together really well. Shampoo foams really easily and smells very fresh and for some reason it reminds me of flowers. Conditioner smells even fresher, I would like to have a perfume that would smell like this actually! Another great thing about these two products is that you need just a little of the product. On my clean, wet hair roots I spray root lift spray. This light mist targets the roots, a part of your hair that’s often weighed down. You can use it on damp hair for an instant root lift whilst styling, or on dry hair for a boost of moisturisation and hair volume. On the packaging it says that you should spray it to your hair from 10 to 12 times for the best results and when style it with a hair blow dryer. That I don't like about this product is the smell. It kinda smells like vinegar, which is not a lovely scent and hair is not the right place to smell like that. After blow drying I can still feel that unpleasant smell, but after a few minutes it goes away. And guys, this product actually works! It really lifts my roots, which for me is like the 8th Wonder of the World ha ha.
When I want to pamper my hair I also use the Souffle treatment. The consistency reminds me of the hair mask, but I feel that it works similar to the conditioner. It should leave your hair smooth, soft, moisturised and bouncy. By the way, the smell of this product is the strongest in the whole series, but it's still really fresh and not irritating at all.
Overall, this series really impressed me. I did not use Dove hair care products before and this series left so many positive emotions that I just can't hold my satisfaction! If you have a similar hair type to mines, I definitely recommend trying this series! My current hair care routine mainly consists of these 4 products. I really have noticed the change. My hair now has a lot more volume, is more shiny, and I also noticed that my hair does not get static that much as it used to, which means that my hair is a lot more moisturised now.

You can read more about this series, see the ingredients, prices, reviews the other people did and a lot more here.

Thank you Dove so much for picking this specific hair series and being kind enough to send it to me to try out! I really appreciate that!
