Testing The Dyson Hair Wrap And New In For Summer - Fashion And Beauty | Petiteelliee

Well, good morning, everyone and welcome back to my channel - i am coming at you very, very fresh face of something i've just got out of the shower. I was about to stop doing my makeup and i thought let's have a little bit of a catch up, because i feel like it's been a little while i haven't vlogged for a couple of days. It'S been really really lovely, but i thought that we could catch up whilst i kind of get ready for this morning and do a bit of a get ready with me, i'm currently just using the nars um. This is the sheer no, not sheer glow. It'S light reflecting foundation and i always mix it in with my pixi h2o skin tint, mainly because this is like the perfect color for me. But it's not quite heavy enough, whereas this gives a much better coverage and i basically just do a squirt of each of those mix. It all together and dab it. On my face - and i find that's kind of like the best mixture of like coverage and color for me, as i said, it's been a few days since i last spoke to you and the uk heat wave. Is it's come out to play? It really has we've had the most gorgeous weather for the last like week and a half which has been so so lovely and very, very welcome. I feel like it took so long to get here, but now that it's here i don't want to hear any complaints about the heat, because we've all been wanting a gorgeous uk summer um. So we actually spent the weekend with alex's family up in sheffield, which was so so lovely. It was a long war drive to get there um from all the way here down south, but it was really really nice and the best part is that his brother has aircon in the upstairs bedroom. So it was very, very nice. At night we stayed nice and cool, we didn't need any fans, and it was one of those things where he was like. This has honestly been like the best investment we ever made in our house. I think he said it cost about four grand but um worth every penny and after experiencing it, i don't disagree um. So i think, when we eventually come to buy a house, we'll definitely look at getting aircon installed, even if it's not in like the whole house, they only had it upstairs. It was so so worth it. I'Ve just used the laura mercier bronzer by the way. Absolutely love this. It'S just like a really nice one for summer just gives a really lovely glow. It'S like a great way of just adding a little bit of extra kind of contouring and bronzing without it being too much. I don't like it to be too heavy and then one trick that i've learned actually recently is to go back in with your foundation, brush and just kind of clean up underneath, and it just helps to create a bit more of a sharp line with your contour Um but yeah it was such a lovely weekend. We basically just spent the weekend running around after their kids having barbecues enjoying the sunshine and it's one of those weekends. We just think this is what it's all about, isn't it. This is what it's all about, um, but one thing that his wife had there and honestly. I was so excited when she told me that she had one, because we were just chatting about hair, and i was telling her about the fact that my my heatless curls are just not really working for me. I just think it doesn't quite work on shorter hair. I think my hair's also just way too silky and i do need a bit of heat so to kind of get something in my hair, like it's fairly malleable, but i do find that it just drops out throughout the day and i don't get like a lovely. You know loose curly wave that most girls get from heatless waves um. So anyway, we're just chatting about that, and i'm saying that you know i would really love to get the dyson air out, but the problem with it is that you can't try it before you buy it um and it's a lot of money to spend on something. You don't know if it's gon na be worth it. You don't know if it's gon na work on your hair you're not really sure how it kind of like goes, and she turned to me. She was like i've got a dice and i wrap up stairs and i looked her like. Are you kidding me? She was like yeah come upstairs and try it. So i, like literally, ran in the shower washed, my hair, so that i could try the dyson air up and i kind of fell in love with it. It gives like a really really lovely curl, um and the best part about having her there was. She could kind of explain to me like right. Your end. Your hair needs to be 80 dry and you know okay, so this one twist this way and this one twist this way and try this and do that, and it was just so nice to have her to be able to kind of be there and like talk Me through it and explain it to me um and after trying it i absolutely fell in love with it. So i placed an order. Probably one of the biggest impulse buys i've ever bought because it's not cheap. I honestly thought it was like. Maybe like a couple hundred pounds, i thought it was about the same price as the hairdryer. Oh, no, it's about 480, something pounds um i'll link it down below. They have two alternative versions. Now they've got one for longer, hair one for shorter hair, so i obviously went for the one with shorter hair, um being a short hair girl myself and i'm so so excited for it to try. It is arriving today. I'Ve got a hair washed you tonight, so i'm so so excited to give it a proper test, run a proper tryout and basically talk you guys through, because i think it is quite a game changer and i think basically, the main thing i've been worried about recently. That i think i've kind of like spoken about on here. Quite a lot, i'm just like waving my eyebrow products around um, the dior eyebrow pencil and the refine brow gel, of course um. But yeah. I feel, like i've just been quite worried recently about how much heat i'm using on my hair, especially my color. I do find i have to curl it pretty much every day and that's literally using heat on every day and then, if i'm not curling it i'm straightening it so again heat it's just not the best thing, and i do find that by that third day i Try to leave my hair three days before i wash it by that third day. It is straw, like literal straw, i hate how it feels and i oil it, and i do everything i can, but it just feels so dehydrated and dry um. So i'm really excited to try the dyson air out, so i've read loads of reviews online and i've seen loads of people talking about it and one thing that someone i think she did a q a on her instagram. I could not even tell you who it was, but she was talking through it and like loads of people asking how long it lasts, and one thing she said was this isn't like using curling tongs. This isn't gon na last three four days and you don't have to top your hair up, which i don't know, anyone whose hair lasts three four days when they tonight anyway. But she was saying this is like a daily thing like as soon as i sleep on it. It falls out and it doesn't look the same, but i just give it a top up. The next morning, i think she said she's like a little spritz of heat protector, just kind of almost dampen the hair a little bit and protect. At the same time, um uses a little spritz of that re-does it every single morning, but it's not obviously using that. Like really harsh heat on your hair and especially if you straighten curl your hair, like me, you're literally using that heat and pulling it and twisting it it's just so bad for your hair. So i'm really really excited for the dyson air wrap to arrive, because it's been something i've been thinking about for a really really long time. And although it's a bit of an impulse purchase, it's only an impulse purchase, because this is the first time i've been able to actually try it actually test it and see how it fares um, so yeah, i'm next going to put on some laura mercier blush. This is the only blush that i've ever used and ever liked like this is literally what's converted me onto blusher, i never ever used to use blusher um. I just found that it didn't really suit me. I just found that it was a bit too much, but this is just honestly gorgeous and i just put the tiniest little amount. Do you see just like little dots, either side of my like? I put it right, basically, almost where you need highlight, but i've had a lot of girls saying that's a great way to kind of pull your cheeks up and then i currently use the this. Is the real techniques? Brush 300.? It'S a very old one, um i like it. I think it's actually supposed to be foundation brush, but i quite like it just kind of dabbing and pulling that blush up, because it means that it doesn't get too much. It'S not too. I don't know it's not too war, you're wearing blush, it's just a really lovely way of adding a little bit of kind of warmth to your face and helping with that, i think it's quite. I think it's called the french girl, aesthetic, where you have like blush and eye shadow, the same color and they almost like blend into each other, because you have the blush so high up on your cheekbones and it really helps just kind of like pull your entire Face up um because i personally have a very round face, so i like any kind of makeup trips and any kind of like techniques that can help not focus on the roundness here, but pull it up and kind of elongate it a little bit so um. I then do another little dot on my eyes. I'M currently not really priming my eyes because i'm using such little products on them. I really don't feel like i need to um, but if i do, if i've got like a really long day, then i'll use the nars smudge proof eyeshadow base. It'S a really really great one um, but i also find because this dries matte. This is like a really lovely one. It'S a very odd, odd texture because it's obviously very liquid when it first comes out, but once you get blending once you get kind of patting in it really mattifies um, not in like a drying weight just in a i'm staying put way um. So i don't feel like. I really need too much to keep it in place, and i also try and like to keep what's on my eyes as light as possible, especially when it's hot like this. I basically want as little as possible on my eyes and as little as possible to kind of have the chance to sweat off, which i know sounds so gross. And it's so tmi. But if you're in and around the uk at the moment and you're feeling this 30 degree heat, then you will understand what i mean because 30 degree heat in the uk just hits differently like it's, not normal, for houses to have air con. It'S not normal! For us to um deal with this kind of heat, most of our houses are built and like designed to keep heat in to kind of like conserve energy in the winter um. So once these kind of heat waves hit, it's tough. Okay, i'm gon na go in with my classic liner flick. This is basically what i do every single day. Um i've actually had quite a lot of questions to do a tutorial. I'Ve definitely done one before but i'll talk to you guys through it. Just in case you haven't watched that video, because i don't remember which video it is, so i can't even link to it um, but basically i go in with this is actually an eyebrow brush, but i find it's a really great way of stamping on your eyeliner And i use a brown eyeshadow. This is from the nars euphoria face palette and it's got the perfect brown shade just so you can see how much i use it. That is absolutely gross um, but it's just the perfect brown shade to kind of stamp eyeliner on and i find if you use brown, it's a bit less harsh than black and a little bit more just like natural. I really like it. So i basically just go in and just kind of stamp a classic line. Oh god. This requires a lot of concentration, okay and now for the flick. Now this is my secret formula, my hack way of creating a really really sharp liner flip. I basically stamp the eyeliner just on the end. I don't worry about if it's too messy, i don't worry about if it's too thick and then i go in with a cotton bud, and this is hundred percent, just the secret trick. Sorry, i feel, like i'm flashing there, a hundred percent the secret trick at creating a really really sharp line. You clean it up underneath the cotton bud, you literally just swipe up and go from underneath the eyeliner clean it up and it creates the sharpest line. I absolutely adore this technique. I'Ve been using this technique for so long now and i always get compliments about my eyeliner and it especially helps if you're someone who has hooded eyes, i have very, very hooded eyes and i find it's a great way. It creates not really sharp line of flick, making it not too much on your eyes and really again pulling the face up. So i need to concentrate, but this is my technique. Okay, so do you see my line flex like they're, very thick, they're, very messy, and then all you need to do is go in with the cotton bud from underneath and just pull up and that difference that difference is absolutely insane. Do you see how sharp that liner flick? Now, honestly, it is just getting changing i'll, then just go with my foundation brush and just kind of tidy up and make sure that i've not like fully taken off my makeup. Sometimes, if you want to as well, you can always go back in with the eyeshadow brush. You were using and just dab around the kind of bottom area here, just to make sure that it hasn't like completely removed all of your makeup um and then i just clean up any kind of like fallout. Anything around the waterline just make sure it's really nice and sharp and honestly it is such a game-changing way to do your eyeshadow. It literally takes me five minutes normally when i'm like you know, concentrating not talking to you guys and there's not too much pressure on, because that was a lot of pressure, i'm very glad that it went right first time um, i'm gon na curl, my lashes, but Um yeah, basically, we just had the loveliest loveliest weekend with family. It was so nice to spend it somewhere else and i can't believe it was as hot up in sheffield because normally when we go and visit alex's family, it's a good two. Three degrees cooler up. There um, it did not feel it like. Maybe it was, but it was still so hot when we were out there, so i'm so glad that they had a um, a hot tub, which we spent a lot of the time in and air conditioning. They were honestly set up for the heatwave and it's just made us realize how not to set up our houses, because our house gets a lot of sunlight um and it does get really really warm. But it was just so nice to spend the weekend with family and just have the most wholesome weekend sell some new products like have some good old girly chat was really really lovely. Now i have recently been censoring. I'Ve not actually opened yet, and i thought we could try out this morning together. It'S the laura mercier caviar volume mascara. Now you guys will know. I am very, very loyal to my lancome hypnose. I absolutely adore this in scarce. It'S going to take a lot to kind of pull me away from that mascara and make me want to try something different, so i really wanted to try the laura mercier. Now you guys know, i often get like send outs from them things to try out things to test now. I don't believe this is a new launch. I think this is mascara. It'S been around for quite a long time um, but i'm really really excited to give it a go. I'Ve already curled my lashes, so they're all ready and primed, and i thought i could give you my first impressions here and now. Okay, i, like the mascara wand, that it's got it's quite a nice one. It'S like, i feel, like you've, either got you either go down the very like plasticy synthetic route or you go down the more kind of like almost natural route and okay, i'm a little bit nervous, i'm not trying to mascara in quite a while. So i'm gon na give it a little wiggle first thoughts. It'S definitely not as like thick. I was a little bit worried. It was gon na be quite you know when a mascara makes your lashes look almost spidery, because it's so thickening. Oh, i quite like that. Bottom lashes as well: anyone that doesn't do their bottom lashes. I don't know how you do it, because i just need that balance when it comes to my mascara, but i really like that. I think that adds a nice amount of volume and length without it being spidery at all, and it's quite buildable, as you can see, i'm layering up and it's not going like really thick and clumpy. So i'm quite impressed with that also a technique that i've heard is a really great way to get more volume in your lashes is to wiggle your mascara right at the root of your lashes and then pull up, and i definitely think it makes a difference. Oh, my goodness, okay, i am really liking this mascara. Okay. First impressions are very positive. I really enjoy this mascara. I think it's really really lovely, not too spidery, not too much just a really nice natural mascara. So i will link that down below, along with all of the products i've been talking about this morning, because that is so lovely. I really really enjoyed that um, so just gon na put on my stippling i mean, would i be using anything other than the nars afterglow lip balm in orgasm, literally my favorite, but um yeah current makeup, very glowy, very lightweight, very simple. I feel like on a day when i'm not talking to camera when i'm just kind of like cracking on and doing it. This literally takes me 10 minutes this and then maybe another 10-15 minutes for my hair and i'm good to go. So it's a really quick morning, routine, really lovely like summery routine, but um yeah really impressed with this mascara. My first impressions are very, very positive, so we'll see how it kind of fairs throughout the day. Obviously it is heatwave day i am going to be getting sweaty, so i'm hoping that i don't have a lot of fallout from this, but i feel like i feel like i won't. I feel like this is a really really good mascara. I have a feeling this might be a new favorite, and that is a big big claim. As i said, i've been so loyal to the lancome hypnos for so so long. So i really just go to show how much i'm really enjoying this new mascara for me to say that it might be replacing my ultimate favorite so ready for the day. I have a lot of work bits that i need to crack on with, and i definitely need to keep an eye out for the door for when the new dyson air up arrives, i'm so so excited for it to come up for us to test it together. Do a bit of a first impressions do a bit of kind of like i'm not going to say tutorial, because i don't really know what i'm doing, but i have been kind of told what to do so. We can try it out together and, if you're a shorter head girl like me, and you've, always worried about products like this, hopefully we'll be able to give it a try together and you'll be able to see that it suits us shorter girls too. So i'm gon na go crack on it with the rest of my day now it has arrived. The dyson era has arrived, let's see if we can get this bad boy open. I feel like this, sir. This is the best solo tape in the world, but this is honestly the biggest box i think i've ever seen. It definitely was not necessary. Oh i'm pretty sure it wasn't necessary. Oh my goodness look at that and here she is in all of her glory. So i went for the dyson air wrap complete, and this is the newer color version. I definitely prefer to the other one. It feels a bit more like up market a little bit, bougier um. So does it tell you here we go all of the attachments that it comes with, so we've got obviously the wand, and then it comes with the one that like kind of really smooths your hair, which i am debating, whether that one would be good for my Bob or one of the other ones, then we've got the two twisty barrels um, which these now twist both ways um so before it was like you'd have to use one for one way and one for the other. I believe they now twist it both ways. We'Ve got the smaller barrel the larger barrel. I think i'm definitely gon na be the smaller barrel. We then have the hot brushes, which these are, what i'm thinking might be really good for my um like little bobby bob or even the round volumizing brush, i think, might be great for my bob, so i'm so excited to give this a try. It literally can't wait to jump in the shower tomorrow morning and give my hair a good old wash so that i can give this a real test run good morning. Everyone. It is the next day now. I just want to say that i promise this entire vlog. Isn'T just going to be me sitting here in my robe, but i ended up being so busy yesterday it became a bit of an admin laptop day and i just didn't really pick up the camera um but, as you would have seen, my new baby has arrived. I'M so so excited it came in the biggest most unnecessary box. I think i've ever seen from john lewis. It was probably not the amazon um like reels and like jokey videos that people do where it's like they just throw in something really small into a huge box. It was basically that um, it's is my new dyson era, which i'm so so excited about um. So, yes, i am up dressed, not dressed, i'm up and showered this morning i went for a run, um and washed my hair afterwards, and i really hope you can't hear the um fan going on beside me because it is hot. I'M not gon na lie. Probably wasn't the best idea to decide to do the dyson air wrap like test when it's this hot, because it is really really warm today. I think it's about 29 degrees and it's just gon na be getting hotter. Let me double check okay, so it's currently 22 degrees, but it's going to be going up to about 28 today, which is very, very warm, so i'm not entirely sure how well the curls are going to last in terms of just the fact that it's so warm They'Re going to drop out, i do find that my hair um, when it's like humid and hot my hair, has dropped out a little bit more, but we're going to give it a test, we're going to see how they fair we're gon na see how they do So let me open this baby up and here she is. Oh, my goodness. Oh my goodness, oh look at that. I don't know where i'm gon na put this. Actually, i haven't even really thought about where i've got the kind of room to store. It is rather large, but we've got all the attachments here in the box, we've got obviously the big wand, the really um smoothing one, the brush the two barrels another brush and then the kind of like um blow-dry-esque one. Oh, my goodness. First time i'm packing. Okay. So we're ready, we are ready to try out the new air, wrap i've just put on the smaller barrel and, as i was saying before, i don't know how well you're going to be able to see this, but just there on the newer ones. It'S basically got this like clip, so you kind of just change this, depending on which way you want your hair to go um now i just basically left my hair to air dry. Actually this morning i feel like it's gon na, be a test of like what's better letting air dry blow drying, it kind of like blast drying it a little bit um, but i got out of chat just thought i'll, let it air dry. Whilst i do my makeup - and i would say it's about 60 dry at the moment - and i've been told, the optimum kind of dryness to start with is 80, but i don't really want to give up blaster. I think i just want to try out with the new dyson, so what i'm going to do is i'm going to section my hair off and just kind of chuck up the top half so that i can focus on at the bottom bit. Okay, so i've been told by my sister-in-law to basically look in the mirror and make sure the arrow that you want is in the mirror facing the right way. So don't look at it like face face on it's pointing towards me, but when i look at it in the mirror it's pointing away from my hair, so i always want to be doing the curls away from my face. Basically um. So i feel like i've got it highest heat. I'Ve got it all the way up in terms of like speed of the fan, so we're gon na have to give this a go now, one of the hardest things i definitely found when i was like testing hers out is basically i'm so used to obviously doing All the curls myself and it's kind of just the trust of letting letting the device do its thing and basically just standing there sitting there and doing nothing so right, let's give this a test. So, oh, my goodness, just look at the bounciness of that curl. Oh, i love it so so much one of my biggest concerns with this is obviously with the shorter hair and definitely finding with the heatless waves and things like that. A lot of these kind of like hair devices, aren't built for short hair, but i do feel like the dyson. It doesn't really make a difference. What hair length you have, especially because it kind of starts from the end of your hair and then curls inwards, whereas with a lot of devices it's about kind of like starting here and then curling outwards, so the shorter your hair is the harder it is this One, oh my goodness, look at that curl, it's so cute. The best piece of advice i got from my sister-in-law is basically hot for eight seconds. Cold. Three seconds then leave it on as you pull it out um. So, let's do the rest of the underneath of my hair because i love it so much foreign ready, yep, okay. So this is the curls from the dyson era. It'S looking very froofy right now, but it really does look like a gorgeous kind of chelsea blow dry. I think it's the best way to describe it now. I'Ve heard that when it comes to kind of brushing it through either use your fingers or a wide tooth comb do not use a brush, because you will completely just lose all of the curls. So i'm just going to give that a really really light brush, because i really don't want to lose the curls that i've just taken about half an hour to put in. It'S definitely taken a long time um because obviously i'm just not really like used to it and then i'll just give it another little spritz of hairspray i mean in terms of volume. It definitely has the volume that things like colors and straighteners seem to lack um. So i'll be very interested to see how this looks once it kind of settles. A bit drops a little bit so i'll check back in with you in a minute. I'M gon na go make myself a coffee, sit down and relax for a bit get dressed properly and then we'll check back in maybe about half an hour when i feel like that's usually when my hair has really like dropped settled, and it's kind of looking like How it's going to look for the rest of the day, okay, so dressed and ready. Now, i'm fully made up got my jewelry on got the cutest little dress on and the hair has kind of dropped and settled, and i'm kind of obsessed with it. The only bit that i don't feel like has taken that well to the air wrap. Is this front little fringy bit, i'm really debating whether the next time i go to the hairdresser's? I stop doing the layering around the front, the kind of feathering and just go for like block length, because i feel like that might make it kind of like sit better with the rest of my hair. But, oh my goodness, the rest of it just looks gorgeous. It really does look like a chelsea blow dryer, which i just absolutely adore. I don't know if you know what i mean when i say chelsea blow dry. I feel, like you, know the kind of og maiden chelsea series, maybe series one to like seven, where they would literally be. You know they would do a lot of like b-roll and like clips where they would be somewhere in chelsea. I feel like they used to like work with a lot of businesses back at the start, um, and it would literally just be two seconds of someone like just finishing their blow dry um at the salon. And then the hairdresser would just like turn them around, and then they would like have a full-on conversation and all the gospeling and the chat and stuff like that. That is what it feels like, just like a really classic bouncy blow-dry, which i really really like. So, as i said, i'm so interested to see how it's going to kind of stay um and how it's going to fare throughout that we have putting a little bit of hairspray just to kind of keep it in place. I am aware that i'm probably gon na have to top it up daily, like it's, not the kind of thing that will really work as like a you know, you do it once it lasts four days, but as long as it lasts for the day, i will Be very very happy and you can technically do it on dry hair. I think it would really help just to kind of um like if you wake up the next morning and it's going a bit flat or you know the car's not really staying in place as much. Then you can just give it a little bit of a top up, but, oh my goodness, i'm so happy. I think it looks really really lovely and i'm excited to just like test it out and try it out more and get to know it a bit better because i feel like it is one of those products where you really do just have to like trial and Test test and trial until you get to a point where you're so familiar with it. It takes you five minutes in the morning i mean it did. Take me a good half an hour this morning to do it, but that's because it was a lot of fat thing, as you would have seen in the time lapse. It was a lot of kind of like understanding what to do like some bits of hair just didn't want to like take, and things like that. So it's just about just learning your hair learning, your hair, like learning about your hair and learning what works with it. Um so yeah i'm up and dressed now ready for the day i've got my pandora jewelry on i've gone for a bit of a silver and rose gold thing. Today i feel like i'm very gold at the moment, and i wanted something a little bit different. I feel like different hair different jewelry, so i've got on the really gorgeous halo necklace, which goes so well with my halo ring. They also do this in silver um, which is so so beautiful. It'S just like a really gorgeous little circle with diamonds in and you can wear it reversible as well. If you don't want the sparkle, but i love how it goes with my rings. You'Ve got the rose, gold and the silver um. I'Ve just gone for little pearly. Earrings and then uh bracelet wise i've got on one of my favorite. This is actually a pandora me bracelet. This is a really gorgeous like chain link, one which is really lovely. It'S really affordable as well. So it's a great starter into the brand. It'S a great present and then on this hand i have gone for again: a rose gold and silver. I'Ve also got my apple watch on and then i've got the really gorgeous rose. Gold ring that just kind of crosses over which is so so lovely, so um yeah, oh and outfit of the day. Oh my goodness, look at that volume. I just brushed my hands through my hair and it's just gone so big um, but outfit of the day. I'M wearing this really gorgeous cup. She dress. I just wanted to be super super comfortable and lightweight. Today. This dress, i've worn so much it's one of those dresses, that's so affordable, but looks so much more expensive than it actually is. I always get compliments when i wear this dress, it's literally cut. You can also shop it on amazon, um, so i'll leave the amazon link down below, because i find that's just a much easier way to shop cup cheeks i do find like, but the returns the delivery things like that can be a bit tricky. So it's so much easier to shop it on amazon, so i'll leave the link to this down below. You can see the um challenge box. It look at the size of this box compared to the size of the box of the dyson air app, absolutely ridiculous. I'M definitely going to have to go to the recycling center to get rid of that because i don't think that's going to fit in our ordinary recycling bin um, but yeah feeling very happy with the new hair, very happy testing out the new dyson air up. I think i'm gon na have a lot of fun trying out and like trying the different attachments as well and just experimenting a bit more with my hair, but um yeah being nice and cool nice and ready to get on with the day. Oh, my goodness, i've just realized that i've almost forgotten to take my hair gummy vitamins. For the day these are the hair burst chewable, hair vitamins. I recently picked them up if you watched my heatless waves video and they are so good. I definitely think they're helping in terms of like my hair health. At the moment, i'm noticing my hair's feeling really healthy and i'm really debating. So that's very i'm really debating whether i want to start growing my hair out just a little bit. I'M not sure. I'M loving, loving short hair, but i just feel like maybe for autumn winter, i'm not sure i haven't decided but um yeah they're. Just these little. Basically, i'm going to try to go higher rose mustard, so i've just come downstairs and i was literally just about to say i hope the noise isn't too much. I'Ve got the doors open, yada, yada and, as i was about to say that the pigeon i don't know how you're going to be here at all, like all i can hear right now, is literally all of the time um. But it is just too hot not to have the door open today, so i hope you don't mind. I'Ve got the bi-folds open um, but i wanted to come down here because i just had a new delivery arrived and i thought we could go through it um, because it's from a new brand, i can't show you the brand without um, showing you my dress from A brand called we are, we wear which is like, i think they do lots of like swimwear. I don't know if they're predominantly just swimwear, but i've had some really good things about them and basically, i think i've mentioned already, but i'm actually going away again at the end of this month, which i'm so excited about. It'S gon na be a really really lovely trip and, after my trip to ibiza, i've definitely felt a lot more confident in like bikinis and wearing things that are a little bit more, like i'm, not gon na, say revealing um, but basically just being a bit more Confident in my body, when i'm like away and stuff so i picked up a few new things that i wanted to show you um, which i thought would be perfect for the holiday now they're all black. Just because i do find it's a lot easier to wear black and feel confident in it's the first one. Oh, my goodness, is a really gorgeous pair of super super high-waisted, bikini bottoms and i'm not gon na. I really really struggle finding high-waisted bikini bottoms that are like really really high-waisted. Most of them call high-waisted, where they come kind of like that to me is more like high rise, not high waisted anything below the belly button is not high-waisted to me. I want it all the way up to my ribcage that i have the smallest amount of midriff showing between the bottoms and at the top. So they've got this really gorgeous like rush detail at the side that you can, i think, pull in yeah. It looks like you can kind of adjust very stunning material like a really soft swimming costume material, and i picked them up in a large which i think might be a little bit big. Maybe i should have gone for a medium, but i'm gon na be brave and try them on with you guys. So i can show you what they look like, so you've got bikini bottom set and what i really liked about. We, i can't say it quickly. We are we we're. What i really liked about we are, we wear is that um loads of their things were like very um. You know like mix and match, and things like that um. So we've got this really cute little top. Look at this really stunning bikini top, and what i really liked about this is that it's quite long line in terms of like the um bralette style, like it comes down quite far, so with those bikini bottoms, your lich can have the smallest amount. The smallest amount of skin, showing which i'm really really excited about because it just means i'm gon na - feel super confident. I'M gon na feel super comfortable. I really like the fact that, even though this is plunging, it's still very light covered, so i thought this would be a really really lovely option because i don't want to be like walking around in a love, island-esque bikini, um, no matter what i just want to Feel confident covered, but still beautiful and i think that's the main point of these bikinis is they're, really really lovely and then the last one that i picked up is this really gorgeous little sarong? So the sarongs i have at the moment are like full length and i wanted to get a shorter one, just for basically chucking on just to essentially cover my bum um. So, like you know, when you're walking around and you don't want to wear like a full-on skirt, it's maybe training on the ground or you're going to get it wet or you want to like dip your feet in. You just want something to wrap around yourself and basically cover your tush for when you're walking around. So i saw this really really gorgeous black sarong that i thought would be really really lovely, so i'm super excited to give those a try. New swimwear brand that i have recently discovered and thought would be such a lovely addition into my holiday wardrobe ready for my next trip, so hopefully they're one that i will go back to because they had some really really gorgeous pieces on there pieces that, as i Said make you feel beautiful are really covered, are really kind of like secure, but still very grown up and still very lovely. This is a bikini that ellie can get on board with look at it. It'S absolutely beautiful, such a stunning, supportive bikini. I really like that. The fact that, because these are bottoms are just so high-waisted, it kind of means that i don't feel too exposed on top of it. Obviously, it's very plunging you've got a bit of cleavage going on there, but i still feel really nice and supported by the way. So you can see the fan in the corner there. It'S just so so warm as i'm doing these try-ons but um. I love love, love it and what you could do, if you wanted to, is literally pull them so that it looks like a one-piece which i really like as well. But i love the fact that you just have that tiny little bit of mid-drift such a gorgeous. Like covered bum as well, i don't feel too exposed. It'S got like a really low back with the um bikini top. I just absolutely love them. I think these are some of my favorite swimming costume. Bikinis. I'Ve ever tried on because it just feels so supported. It feels so comfortable, i feel so flattered. I am so so in love, so i definitely recommend it checking out. We are weware. This is such a cute set and then just to show you it with the sarong as well as it's just like a really short sarong, really simple. You can twist it to the side, and it's really super flattering. It'S basically just to cover your bum. That'S pretty much the kind of purpose of this one, but i really really like you can also tie it over your shoulders if you need like a little bit of sun coverage um, but just to make it more of like an outfit rather than like, i'm wearing Swimwear, i think it's really really cute, so i would definitely recommend checking out. We are we wear. They have so many gorgeous pieces, i'm so impressed with the quality of these, and the price point is like really really good, as well, so very kind gift that they sent over to me. I'M really glad that i tried it because i feel like sometimes when it comes to swimwear brands, it's very daunting to try them it's very difficult to try them um. So i'm really glad that i could give this a try for you guys. So if you are looking for some swimwear for this year for any holidays, you've got coming up. We are we we're top tier swim bro. It has been a long day today. I'Ve not been the best at checking in with you, so i do apologize for that. It is the end of the day. Now it's about five o'clock, i'm just clocking off from work. It'S been a busy day of shooting filming. I'Ve done lots of cutaways. I'Ve done a couple of reels, so i have been so busy and my hair has actually held up so much better than i was expecting, especially because of the heat and because of how much i've been doing today. I was definitely expecting the curls to just completely disappear um, but actually, i feel like it's held up really really well, so i'm very very impressed with the results from the dyson air wrap. Definitely definitely recommend it to you guys as well, because i feel like, as i said like. Sometimes it's really tricky, knowing whether things are designed for our shorter hair um, and you know like designed for not having long luscious locks like we love our shorter hair um. But i'm definitely gon na watch a few more like tutorials and videos about using the different attachments trying out some different things, because i definitely think that i could really make the most of it. I don't want to have spent that much money on just that, like one attachment to use um, so i want to make sure that i'm using it for lots of different hairstyles and i think i'm going to have a bit of fun with it this summer. So i will link it down below if you are interested. I know it is a big investment, but maybe put it on your birthday list, put it on your kind of like wish list. You can maybe look for it in any kind of like sales that i don't think the dyson ever really goes down into the sale but um yeah. I wanted to give you a verdict on how my hair was looking by the end of the day, because i know that was going to be. The big test was just whether the curls were going to last, and i would definitely say that they have lasted really really well so evening. Plans are basically going to take place here. The sun is shining so beautifully and it is just looking so lovely. So i think i'm going to set myself up in the shade over here next to my favorite hydrangeas, with a good book, a cup of coffee and wait for alex to get home from work. So i'm going to leave this video here guys. I really hope you enjoyed it. I hope you enjoyed testing out the new dyson with me. Let me know your thoughts and if you have any tips, if you have one yourself, please help a girl out leave them down below give me any piece of advice. You can when it comes to using the dyson air app. I am all ears, but i hope you enjoyed the video if you did be sure to give it a thumbs up and leave me the sun emoji down below. If you got the end of this video, because the fact that the curls have stayed in the heat wave is a big big improvement compared to what my hair normally does when the heat is this scorching, honestly so hot here in the uk, so leave me the Sun emoji down below in the comments - and i will see you guys in the next one bye you
