Make an impact| ghd steals the show

Make-an-ImpactB’ys oh b’ys, I’ll tell you — I’d rather gold than coal in my stocking. And rose gold it is, with the ghd platinum copper luxe premium gift set. Merry Christmas To Me, love ghd. At least, that’s what I envision them saying if they ever wrote me a note. Which they did because this is a pr sample if it wasn’t already obvious.

ghd-platinum-styler-flatI love Christmas time. It beats any other time of year, for me. I enjoy enhancing my friends and families lives with thoughtful gifts, and items or memorable adventures. For me, it’s not about receiving or opening gifts. I emit intense joy watching someone else open a gift, whether or not it’s from me. Admittedly, it pains me to see them unwrap the gift every-so-painfully slow just to get a rile out of me — because I rip’er all open like a kid on Christmas.

ghd platinum copper luxe A standout gift this year for any of your recipients is one of the sets that ghd has curated this season without you having to skip out on next months rent. ghd cares about hair quality, not about frying and heating up your iron to as hot as it can go. Here’s what ghd says:

Dispelling the heat myth: The hottest temperature is not the key to getting your hair just how you want it. The secret is maintaining the optimum styling temperature at all times. Intelligent tri-zone® technology maintains a safer-for-hair heat constantly and evenly from root to tip. One stroke styling to save both your hair and your time.

If you recall, Lauren and I went to GenBeauty SF and had our hair done at the ghd booth. One of the stylist educators used this flatiron on me to create effortless looking beach waves that I cannot seem to replicate for the life of me. The one that was used on me at the time was in white, and they come in a few colours too.

ghd-stylerWhether you want to add a little wave to create an effortless style, or straighten for a sleek look to tame the fly-aways, ghd products are a fail proof gift for any person in your life this Christmas. The set I have comes with two nails inc x ghd nail polishes, a heat-resistant pouch and a silicone cap for the styler if you want to stow it away after using.

ColourPop x NKLA

NKLAxColourPopOn Thanksgiving ColourPop launched two new eyeshadows called Puppy Love, and Cat Nap. But the best thing about these launches is that all the proceeds from these eyeshadows are going to support Best Friends Animal Society. Through the NKLA (stands for: no-kill LA) they are working to make Los Angeles a no-kill city. They are the only national organization that are dedicated to ending the killing of dogs and cats in American shelters. You can support the charity by purchasing any of the two shades for $5.00 each, on ColourPop’s website.

NKLA x ColourPop shadowsThe formula of the two super shock eyeshadows are the same (as is the price) but the packaging has an added bonus on it with a limited edition paw print on it, for the NKLA x ColourPop collaboration.

NKLA x ColourPop

NKLA x ColourPop swatchesBefore these arrived to me, I haven’t tried ColourPop’s eyeshadows before (only their lip products). I was surprised how cushiony and soft they were… and easy to swipe with my finger. It’s almost like the products are cream-based, but not. Know what I mean? The shade Puppy Love (the lighter of the two) didn’t show up well in the photograph, but on the back of my hand it’s a pink-gold iridescent shade that reflects the light beautifully. I’m pretty sure Puppy Love could definitely double as a highlighter shade. Try it out!
