Wish List - November 2011

I'm a sucker for lists! I love them! I often find myself listing a bunch of things I want. Most of which I desire but never actually get round to buying, either a.) because they're way out of my budget or b.) because I completely forget about them and move on to obsessing over some new trend. Anyway, the Wish List will be a monthly feat here at Styliche as I'm always discovering new products I'd like to buy and try, all of which I will hopefully get round to reviewing on the blog.

Texturizing shampoo - I’ve always been a fan of layered hair. A few months ago I sliced it all off, up to my chin, bleached it platinum blonde and had a gazillion choppy layers cut into it to enhance the texture and give it some volume. I love the look when my hair is styled, but given I have fine hair anyway, plus the fact I bleached the crap out of it, I’d rather not use heated tools like straighteners and curlers every day. I’m looking for a texturizing shampoo that will enhance my layers and give it a bit more dimension without the heat.

Green foundation for redness - I’ve always had a red tinge to my face - nowhere else on my body - just my face. Covering it up with regular foundation is very hard, unless it has maximum coverage, as I tend to end up with warm, pink tones on my face, whereas the rest of my skin, like on my neck, is very cool- toned in comparison. I have no idea why and still to this day are clueless, but have found a way to combat it: green foundation. I learned a lot about colour neutralization and the colour wheel when I riskily decided to bleach my hair from black to platinum blonde, without the aid of a hair dresser. Anyway, on the colour wheel red is directly opposite to green. This means that they cancel each other out and this also applies to your skin. I heard No.7 have a great green foundation called No.7 Colour Calming Make-Up Base, which I’m tempted to try out.



Collared shirts - The Peter Pan collar has returned! Vintage looks are definitely my favourite, particularly circa 1940’s, so I’m excited to get my collar on!
