Hey
everyone!
So today it occurred
to me that I haven’t blogged in about two weeks, which is mainly down to the
fact that I’ve been so busy... but it’s also because I just haven’t been
purchasing as many beauty products as I typically do.
I’ve decided
to start up a little “vs.” series in my blog, where I’ll tell you about two of
the same type of product and compare to two. There aren’t enough of these blog
posts about which is why I’ve decided to start up this series, I think it’s really
helpful to see a comparison of two different beauty products to make the
decision making process that much easier!
So today I
thought about products that I usually use on a daily basis, or a product that I
recently bought and haven’t blogged about yet. This made me realise that there
are two products I needed to tell you about! Lately I’ve been obsessed with
searching for the perfect hair products. I usually like to spend most of my
money on makeup, but recently I wanted to take extra care of my hair (which we
all should do!)
I normally
just pick up the same hairspray after work, which is usually the L’Oreal Paris
Elnett Satin Hairspray (normal strength).
I love this hairspray;
it’s definitely a cheap and cheerful hairspray that is definitely a favourite
within the beauty community.
What I love
most about this hairspray is the unique formula that holds the hair in place
without that stiff feeling that you get with a lot of hairsprays. The hairspray
is an ultra-fine spray that leaves my hair feeling extremely soft straight
after application; most of the time this hairspray makes me feel as if I put nothing
in it in the first place. I love it!
The only negative
thing I have to say about this hairspray is the smell, there are so many
hairsprays out there that genuinely smell amazing and leave a gorgeous lingers
smell on your hair that is to die for! But unfortunately this is something that
this hairspray is desperately missing! I’m definitely not a fan of the smell,
but because this spray ticks all the other boxes for me, I will continue to
purchase it!
While I was
wandering around Boots the other week, I decided to try out another spray (a
better smelling one) that would maybe top my love for the Elnett spray. So I decided
to pick up the Lee Stafford Hold Tight spray. As some of you may already know,
I’m totally obsessed with the Lee Stafford hair care range. This is mainly
because of the smell of their products; they definitely have a very
distinctive, beautiful smell that I always get compliments on!
This
hairspray is slightly more expensive than the Elnett spray, retailing at £5.99,
and you definitely get a good amount of product that will last for months. This
hair spray definitely lasts longer than the Elnett spray and smells so much
nicer, it has that distinctive Lee Stafford hair product smell which I
absolutely adore! But unfortunately if you apply too much of this hair spray it
will create the awful stiff feeling which I’m really not a fan of! So be careful
not to spray too much of this stuff!
Overall I’m
undecided as to which of these win, because they both have factors that I like
and dislike, but I wanted to give you a comparison of two budget hair sprays to
help you make a decision of which one you’d like to try out. So I hope it
helps, again these blog posts will be a little comparison series that I’ll be
doing regularly in the future. I’ll compare everything from hair care, makeup
to skin care products, both budget to high end! So keep a look out for them!
Thanks for
reading!
