Figuring Out Hair Types

Image from GoogleI received an email this morning, promoting a range of natural shampoos and conditioners. Great, I thought, because I've been meaning to give some natural products whirl for quite some time, because I'm tired of my hair feeling bogged down by chemicals and crap, especially since my hair is so fine and limp. So, I decided that I would check out their website, and have a little snoop at what they had on offer.I'm not going to name...

Introducing Kat Mummy

On Thursday, I was honoured to feature in Just Nice Things' 20 Questions, within which I mentioned my Mum. Of course, I made the slight *cough* mistake of telling her about the piece, and so she decided to get "justice" as she put it, by commenting on the post (seriously, you don't need to check out what she said, at all!!)As a result, Katie from Lady from a Tramp requested a guest post, from my mum with "childhood stories". I assured my mother...

But, just like Nicola Roberts, of Girls Aloud fame, I am not a naturally smiley-type of person. And when I do smile, I always worry that I look like Nicola Roberts, in the sense that because she's very aware that people have noticed that she isn't a naturally smiley person, when...

The Lure of Loyalty Cards

When I first heard that Superdrug was bringing out a loyalty card, I was absolutely ecstatic. Why? C'mon, we all like to be rewarded for spending money and being "loyal" to a company. But, to be fair, I have quite a rocky relationship with the notion of loyalty cards.The Very Bad (in my opinion)For example, I think that the PureHMV card is a complete waste of time. You gain loads of points per transaction, which, on the surface, makes it look like...

Christopher's Positive Beauty Pledge

When it comes to body image and body confidence, it's easy to think that it's just us girls that have issues, but men also have their hang ups and issues that they have to wrestle with everyday. If they're not muscly enough, or if their hair is receding, they don't always feel happy within themselves either. So, I am really thrilled to introduce this weeks Positive Beauty Pledge (and yes, this is the boyfriend, so please be nice ;))Christopher's...
