RECENT HAIR PRODUCT EMPTIES

V05 Hot Oil Give Me Moisture 75ml, £4.29 - This is one of my favourite pre-wash hair products but I think it may be discontinued? All I can find now is the x4 shots of hot oil (good job I've got a back up, which I will be using sparingly). It helps to restore moisture, double the strength of my hair and reduces breakage. I love the scent and how soft it leaves my hair feeling. Would I repurchase? Looks like I will have to try the shots next.

Tresemme Texture Style Divine Definition Spray 200ml, £5.75 - I really enjoyed using this product, it divined my layers and gave me some volume. I thought the finish was great for such an affordable hair product. It doesn't feel like there is any product in my hair, which I like. Would I repurchase? Yes I'm not sure why I haven't already!
V05 High Volume Hairspray 400ml, £3.29 - I bought this on offer as I needed some hairspray for a night out. It did give me volume but it didn't do miracles at holding my style, but for the price you can't go wrong for such a large bottle. I do find it handy to have smaller bottles that I can pop in my bag though! Would I repurchase? Not right now.
It's a 10 Miracle Leave-In Product 120ml, £10.49 - I bought this from TXMAXX after hearing Fleur De Force rave about it. It really is a miracle product, it helps to detangle, add shine, repair dry and damaged hair, control frizz, among other things. I like to use this with my tangle teezer on towel dry hair. The only annoying thing is it's quite hard to get hold of in the UK. Would I repurchase? Yes, I'm currently using the Keratin version.
V05 Miracle Concentrate Elixir with Argan Oil 50ml - £5.19 - I'm starting to see a V05 theme here ;) Another product of theirs which I love! This leave in treatment smells so good, and deeply conditions my hair back to life. Would I repurchase? Yes it's a staple.

Organix Coconut Milk Shampoo and Conditioner 385ml, £6.99 each - This is one of the creamiest shampoo's I've ever used. It contains coconut milk to nourish, whipped egg white proteins help add strength and elasticity, along with coconut oils for hydration and balance. I love the packaging and the scent. Would I repurchase? Yes, I would like to try more from the range.
Redken All Soft Shampoo and Conditioner 300/250ml, £18.30 for both - After hearing a lot of hype for these products, I had to try them out for myself. I was pleased they matched up to the reviews. My hair was left feeling silky soft and added lots of shine. The argan oil replenishes hair and the keratin nourishes hair for intense softness. Would I repurchase? Yes, I would like to try the Diamond Oil range next. 
Loreal Ever Riche Shampoo and Conditioner Nourishing and Taming 250ml, £5.99 each - This shampoo and conditioner is for very dry/rebellious hair types, and is one of the first I've used containing no sulphates. The scent is lovely, camelina and apricot seed - it really did clean and refresh my hair. It foams up really well and makes my hair look bouncy and healthy. Would I repurchase? Yes, I love the formula.

John Frieda Full Repair Deep Conditioner 150ml, £6.29* - Another lush scented product, it reminds me of holidays. My hair really knows when I've used this deep conditioner, it's so much more manageable and full. Read my full review here. Would I repurchase? Yes, especially for the scent!
Umberto Giannini Glam Hair Morning After Dry Shampoo 200ml, £6.00 - This is one of the more pricey dry shampoo's I have used. I like the scent but it does leave a gritty texture in my hair which I'm not too keen on. It doesn't leave any white powder behind and it does give me some volume. Would I repurchase? If it was on offer, yes.
Batiste Light & Blonde Dry Shampoo 200ml, £3.99 - I've always been a fan of Batiste. This product is perfect for in-between washes as it banishes oily roots. The hint of colour means it blends into your roots, which is great as it revives your colour. Would I repurchase? Yes, it's great for fading roots.
Superdrug Floating on a Breeze Dry Shampoo 150ml £2.19 - This was a basic dry shampoo which I picked up at bargain price. I wasn't expecting too much from this, but it did leave my hair feeling refreshed and less greasy. Would I repurchase? Probably not, I like the V05 one too much.
John Frieda Full Repair Perfect Ends Sheer Mist 75ml, £6.99* - This product has the same scent as the conditioner. This product really helps protect the lengths of my hair which sometimes can get neglected. Read my full review here. Would I repurchase? Yes, it was good at detangling my hair.

FEBRUARY BEAUTY PRODUCT EMPTIES 2013

Another empties post for you this month, I have really been enjoying using products up. I like to do my research on products before I buy them, so I'm rarely disappointed with the results of my spending. It seems this post contains lots of affordable hair care items that need to go back on my repurchase list...
V05 Hot Oil Moisture Soak Elixir, 75ml £4.29 - I can't get enough of this product! You simply apply it before washing your hair and leave it on for up to one minute. On the side of the bottle there are indicators for how much to use, (up to 5 treatments.) This is great for dry/damaged hair as it reconstructs rebellious hair and you can notice the difference from first use. Would I repurchase? Yes, I need to stock up. 
The Body Shop Banana Shampoo and Conditioner, 250ml £4.50 each - I bought this shampoo and conditioner mainly because of the scent, it smells good enough to eat! But after a few washes, I was really impressed with the condition of my hair. They left my blonde hair feeling silky and really helped to boost my highlights. Would I repurchase? I don't tend to buy many products from The Body Shop but I would definitely buy these again and maybe I will look into other hair products from them. 
Organix Coconut Milk Conditioner, Full size 384.5ml £5.99 - Another product bought because of the scent.This product contains coconut milk and whipped egg white proteins that help to add strength and elasticity to the hair. The product is thick and creamy, but it didn't leave my hair weighing down at all, which I was surprised about! Would I repurchase? Yes, I am currently using the shampoo and conditioner in my shower.

Soap & Glory The Righteous Butter Body Butter, 300ml £10.50 - This is one of my holy grail products, I always have a tub of this stashed away for days when my dry skin is crying out for attention. The product has the 'Original Pink' scent which everyone loves and it soaks into the skin like a dream. Would I repurchase? Yes, but I am currently using Smoothie Star Body Milk from Soap & Glory. 
Soap & Glory Flake Away Body Scrub, Full size 300ml £7.00 - I received this product in a Christmas gift set. I hadn't really been bothered about this product before, again it has the same 'Original Pink' fragrance. But I loved using this little tub up, the product isn't as harsh as other scrubs in the range. The mini sizes are great for travel! Would I repurchase? Yes, I need to get my hands on a big tub of this.
Clarisonic Sensitive Brush Head £21.00 - This product came with my Clarisonic Mia. I was impressed with this brush at the start, but after using the Deep pore brush head on my skin I have been converted to that one. But I do think this brush is great for starting out and getting your skin used to the Clarisonic. Would I repurchase? No, my skin is enjoying the Deep pore brush so I'm going to stick with that.

Balance Me Wonder Eye Cream, Full size 15ml £20.00 - I received these samples in a magazine and a Glossybox. This is probably the first eye cream I have enjoyed using in a long time. I loved using it within my skincare routine, it was really gentle on my skin and helped to sooth and brighten the area any time I had tired eyes. Would I repurchase? Yes, after I have used some of my other products in my stash I would definitely go back to this one.
Herbal Essences Hello Hydration Intensive Mask, 200ml £2.50 - This is a product I repurchase if it's on offer as I know my hair loves the stuff! Of course it has a yummy coconut scent, but this affordable treatment really helps dry/damaged hair transform into healthy, manageable hair especially at the tips! Would I repurchase? Yes.
Lush The Olive Branch Shower Gel, 100g £4.45 - This is also a product I received in a gift set, I don't think I would have purchased it myself separately. I did like the scent of this, it is quite a mature, mediterranean scent. But I didn't really get along with the consistency, it's quite a thin texture and you have to shake the bottle to mix it with the olive oil. Would I repurchase? No, but I want to check out other shower gels from Lush. 

Batiste Dry Shampoo Graffiti and Lace, 200ml £2.99 each - These products are old school necessities, I will always have a bottle of this lying around somewhere in my room. I must admit I do love the V05 version a little more, but you can't go wrong with a bottle of this on the go. I really like the lace one. Would I repurchase? Yes, so handy!
Naked Blonder Lightening Shampoo, 250ml £3.98 - I really enjoy Naked products, this is the first hair product I have used from them. I was impressed, I mean it's nothing outstanding, but I did notice a sun-kissed look to my highlighted hair. The scent is lovely and it's nice to know there are no nasties in the bottle. Would I repurchase? Yes...maybe, I am still using the conditioner up.
