I’m pretty sure that if we all could spend hours a day on hair care, skincare and makeup, 9 times out of 10 we would, but it’s definitely not practical or realistic these days! Busy lifestyles can really reduce the amount of time we have to look after ourselves and for this, we are all seeking beauty products that we can use quickly and easily, but still give the same results as if we were to spend ages. After a little research, as well as browsing products that I already own, I’ve come up with a few beauty essentials that are perfect to use for the lazy ones amongst us!

First up is the Batiste Dry Shampoo. This stuff is definitely a miracle product and a perfect hair care solution for those with a hectic lifestyle. Ever woken up one morning and noticed your hair isn’t looking its best but you have no time to wash it? Yes? Well grab a can of this and those days will be over! This dry shampoo is a great way to refresh and revitalise your hair instantly, removing and excess grease or oil. Just spritz into the roots and massage into your scalp, to leave clean and fresh hair, with a little added volume and texture! Batiste comes in a variety of scents, my favourite being the ‘Tropical’, so there will definitely be a scent you will love! You can buy this in a range of size cans, so perfect if you’re always on the go, just put a mini travel version in your handbag and you’re good to go!

If you’re looking for something quick and easy to add to your skincare routine, look no further! The Garnier Pure Active 3 – 1 Wash, Scrub and Mask is a perfect ‘all-rounder’, multi-use product that can save you time and money. This beauty product can be used in 3 different ways; a face wash, a face scrub or a face mask, meaning you don’t have to have millions of other products to use in conjunction, when this can do all 3!

Thirdly, a Cheek ‘n’ Lip Tint from 2True, which is an affordable make up product that has 2 uses. These are quite a new addition to the beauty world, but I definitely think they could come in handy! This would definitely be a welcome addition to any beauty bag and perfect for those who want a matching cheek and lip make up combo!

Next up is the Rimmel 5 Pan Eyeshadow in Brixton Brown. A small, travel sized palette perfect for eyeshadow, eyeliner, highlighting and filling in those brows! The shade range that is included is pretty good, and would most likely suit many people’s brow shades and gives a perfect smoky eye eyeshadow look for an evening look, or you can create a more neutral daytime look!

Finally, the Aussie 3 Minute Miracle! For me this is the perfect hair care product ever! All Aussie products smell amazing, and this is no exception! The main purpose of the 3 Minute Miracle is for a deep treatment to the hair, to help maintain healthy hair. This comes in a variety of types, including a heat protecting version, one to maintain shine and one to prevent frizz, so it’s perfect for all types of hair! You can also use this hair product as a simple conditioner after shampooing your hair and if you’re feeling extra lazy, use this instead of a shaving gel for extra super silky legs!

All the products I have featured are super affordable and can all be picked up in your local high street stores and supermarkets! So hopefully you have been introduced to some new products that can save you time in the mornings, also save you some money, and help you look your best without spending all day with a few multi-use product ideas.

What are your lazy beauty products? Do you use any I have featured in today's post?

AD - GIFTED | So the next instalment in haircare week comes in the form of a serum; Goldwell Dualsenses Rich Repair 6 Effects Serum*, which I was kindly sent from lookfantastic/hqhair. Hair serums are still quite a new thing for me, and so far I've tried and tested a few and have been really happy with how they leave my hair looking and feeling, so having the opportunity to test this one from Goldwell is something I was excited for.

"An innovative 6-in-1 solution for hair that's in need of some TLC, this Dualsenses Rich Repair 6 Effects Serum from Goldwell is your fast track to super soft, silky hair. Boasting six repairing benefits, this effective serum gives your hair instant shine with an anti-frizz effect, healthy ends and improved elasticity."

Goldwell DualSenses Rich Repair 6 Effect Serum is a 6-in-1 solution, helping to improve instant shine, silky suppleness, improved elasticity, anti-frizz effect, healthy ends and reduced hair breakage.

The serum comes in a handy pump dispenser, which means you can control the amount of product you dispense, where I usually take 2-3 pumps and rub this together in my fingertips, then apply to the lengths and ends of my hair. The non greasy formula that feels really light and absorbs really quickly into the hair, leaving it feeling silky and no greasy residue is left behind.

I usually use this on freshly washed hair, once its towel dried, and find that this works best for my hair, but also if my hair is feeling a little dry, I will smooth 1 pump of this through the ends to give it a little refresh and nourishment.

From the first application of this serum, the appearance of my my hair was definitely a lot better. It was so smooth and silky, without any frizz. Big yes! My hair felt thicker and healthier, shinier and more manageable, and for someone with long hair, this is definitely a plus! A definite recommendation to anyone with long hair, dry hair or those just looking for a serum to improve the texture and appearance of there locks!

Have you used this hair serum before? What serums do you like to use?
