As a beauty blogger, I am up to my ears in fun stuff to try, test and review. A special soap for my nose, a speed drier for my brushes, you'd think I have enough to keep me entertained but the beauty junkie in me will always find something else to crave. It genuinely is a bit of an addiction.. I'm definitely in the right business!
February is the month of love and lust and the beauty item I've been lusting after this month is the Pro Blo Curl Me set. The team over at HQHair.com treated me to £50 off my Febrary lust-have and it was an absolute no brainer. Pro Blo, you must be mine!💓💓💓
What is the Pro Blo? It's essentially a barrel brush with detachable barrels. Basically THE blowdry product that I've been waiting years for. The Prince Charming of hair styling.
It's essentially a barrel brush with detachable barrels so you can curl your hair and clip them in like rollers.
To be honest, I'd love to be one of those ladies that gets a regular blowdry at a salon, but frankly it's time consuming and expensive. With the Pro Blo brush, I can now get big, bouncy curls that last all day. Even on my straight hair!
No more will I be getting a round brush stuck in my hair. No longer will my curls be going straight with minutes. The Pro Blo does what it says on the tin - it's a professional blow dry, at home.
Let's see it in action
It's official - I'm in love. My bank balance loves it too as I'm no longer paying for costly salon styling. The only people suffering are all those who can no longer see behind me due to the bounciness of my hair! (Oh yeah, and poor Mr FV who has to deal with me bouncing around on a regular basis - but even he can see a difference though!)
This Pro Blo CURL ME Deluxe edition is available at HQHair for £60. There is also a Pro Blo basic CURL ME set with less barrels for £35 here. Recommend you take a look!
What do YOU think? Do you like salon blowdries or would you rather be able to do them at home? Tweet me your thoughts @FaceValueBlog or send me a comment on Facebook!

NEW YOUTUBE VIDEO: How to apply Glitter Lips by Beauty Boulevard
Fright night is here! Although I'm a big fan of fancy dress, I'm getting a bit bored of the usual blood and gore of Halloween makeup. For once, I just want to look NICE, y'know? Like somewhere in between a Mean Girls playboy bunny, and Lindsey Lohan's Bride of Frankenstein.
So I came up with a red-eyed look which is dramatic but still very different from my everyday going out look. The good news is that it's EASY PEASY. All you need is a lipstick and a fluffy brush to blend.
Check out the video for the full how-to and let me know what you think!
Stuff I used
Makeup Obsession Blush Pan in B106 Fancy
Sleek True Color Lipstick in Cherry
Maybelline Brow Satin EyeBrow Pencil in Dark Brown
Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tar in Black Metal Dahlia - I actually picked this up in New York but the original Black Dahlia is here

Youtube Video: Halloween Makeup Tutorial - Blood Red Eyes & Lips
So, I've not stopped going on about it, but I grabbed my life by the balls in December, got a new job and decided to cut my waist length hair to a long bob. The good news is that I love the new length (you can hear me blabbering on about it when I dyed my dark hair purple on my blog here), but the only downside is that I genuinely feel like I'm back at the starting line when it comes to styling it.

Working Out How To Style Short Hair With The Boots Beauty Box
It's here! My second proper YouTube video! I got a lot of lovely comments on my What I Wore To The Wedding post last week and a lot of people had been asking me about how I did my nails.
Here's the secret - it's actually really easy! DONT TELL ANYONE. There is actually a more complex way to do ombre nails properly but if you're a nail art novice or if you only have 10 minutes then THIS is the method for you.
All you need is two nail polishes and a piece of sponge.
The rest.... is all in this video! It's very short, less than 5 minutes - so take a look!

DIY Ombre Nail Tutorial using Essie & Models Own
In place of the normal "What I Wore To Work", today it's another "What I Wore To The Wedding" special! My gorgeous friends Jack & Olive got married last weekend and I was honoured to attend their beautiful celebrations.
And what a wedding it was - I'm talking sweeping marble staircases, seven stunning bridesmaids, a performance by Burberry model Roo Panes and six REAL blossom trees brought into the church (I still haven't gotten over those) - I wouldn't expect any less from a Porter Magazine wedding!
So what did I wear?
