Hey everyone,
So for anybody who didn't know, SHM is an acronym for shower, hair, makeup which Blair(juicystar07) created. Cute, right? Okay so below is my SHM routine which is actually really a SHSMH (shower, hair, sleep, make-up, hair) routine. Confused? Sorry! Hopefully the rest will make sense. FYI I only wash my hair every other night, or even every three nights depending on how much product I've used. I'm going to talk- or type- you through a night and morning when I do wash my hair. Okay here goes:
8.00pm- Shower time! So I turn the shower on and while it's warming up I brush through my hair. This helps to release more of the oil and grease from your hair, so it feels even fresher when you get out of the shower. Then I get in the shower and wash my face with The Body Shop's Tea Tree Blackhead Exfoliating Wash (or when I run out, a mixture of olive oil and sugar) while my hair gets wet. Next, I shampoo my hair with Herbal Essences Uplifting Volume Shampoo and rinse out right away. Then I squeeze the water out of my hair before smothering on Herbal Essences Hello Hydration Conditioner from my ears down. I let that work its magic while I wash my body with Soap and Glory's Body Wash and shave my legs with a Venus Embrace Razor. I either use olive oil or conditioner as a shaving cream, shh! Why bother buying an expensive one when they work just as good? Then, I take a brush with plastic bristles like this one (ones with hair bristles will break your hair) and brush through my hair from root to tip to coat my hair evenly in conditioner. Then wash it out straight away so you don't end up with greasy roots. Showers done!
8.30pm- So once I'm out of the shower, I wrap my hair up in a towel and apply either the first moisturiser I see or fake tan. My hair stays in the towel until 9.30-10pm, but I take it out of the towel and rewrap it every 15 minutes so it gets some air. (don't worry if you forget, it won't make much difference)
10pm- Now its time for my hair to come out of the towel. I brush through my damp hair and apply a little Paul Mitchel Hair Sculpting Lotion (a little bit of this goes a long way- we're going to be adding more in the morning anyway. Next I take my Remington Heated Rollers. Unfortunately, I don't think these are sold any more, I've had them for years. Any heated rag rollers will work. Or even normal rag rollers and you can blow dry your hair before bed, it will probably give you the same effect. Now, don't use all 16 rollers! The three biggest factors affecting your curls are: if heat is applied, if the hair is wet when the curl is formed, and how long the curl is left to form in the hair. Using this technique you are incorporating all those factors, so use less curlers than you think you should. My hair is about 20" and very thick, and I would say I use about 10-12 rollers and get the look I want. So just section off your hair and roll the rollers in. Leave out your fringe or the front section of your hair, we'll do that section with curlers/straighteners in the morning. Now sleep with the curlers in.
7am- Wake up, eat breakfast brush my teeth blah blah blah.
7.30am- Do my make-up. I use Bare Minerals Foundation in Fair, Benefit's High Beam(here's how to use it) Benefit's Hoola, Rimmel's Clear Complexion Powder, Rimmel's Volume Flash Waterproof Mascara and Rimmel's Sexy Curves Waterproof Mascara.
7.45am- Now, I take out the rollers from bottom to top, apply a bit more of my Paul Mitchell Sculpting Lotion using scrunching motions. Then I fix any curls that haven't curled properly and do the front pieces. To do the front I part it and take one side, hold it upright and place my straigtener at the root. Then I slightly curve the straightner and slide it half way up, before turning all the way around to curl the end. Make sure that while you do this, you pull the hair back away from your face. Now spray generously with any flexible hold hairspray(I change mine all the time) and your good to go!
8am- Get dressed and off to school I go:)
Hope you learnt something reading this, sorry it was so long!
Thanks for reading,

What I love about YOU tag
Hey everyone,
So I was watching Megans's what I love about YOU tag, and then Fleur's video and wanted to share some love myself. I know that tag videos are usually done in videos on YouTube, but I thought why not? I'll do a tag blog post;) Here we go...
1. Who would you trade hair with on youtube?
I would have to say Katie(DollyBowBow) because her hair always looks amazing, its so long and gorgeous. I just love it!
2.Who is someone who's videos are a 'first watch'?
I instantly click on Thea(xrubyredlips)'s videos because they are so rare and I find her really easy to watch and stuff.
3. Who has amazing style to you?
I think Samantha(beautycrush) has AMAZING style,
4.A favorite guru who lives in a different country than you.
As I'm from England theres a lot of choice because most gurus are from the US. I can't really choose a favorite I love all the girls mentioned in this blog.
5.Who is someone you feel like you can rely on?
I've never met or even spoken to her, but i feel like as a friend Bethany(MacBarbie07) would be very reliable, like you could call her up any hour and talk and she'd listen happily.
6.Who do you think has great confidence?
Victoria(chevyxo) because shes just so honest and herself in her videos. I never feel like shes being fake, all her reviews are completely honest ect. and i think you have to be very confident to be able to do that, and to be able to give your honest opinion about products and everything, so her.
7.If you could be best friends with someone on youtube, who would it be?
I'd say Tanya(pixi2woo) because shes so cute and I just think she'd be really fun to have around and we have lots in common. Not to mention shes GORGEOUS. I think that Allie(glassslipperbeauty)is also a really sweet girl and would be good to have as a best friend
8.Who has the cutest username?
I think Samantha, Megan(meganheartsmakeup), Thea and Katie all have really cute usernames, I cant choose!
9. Who is the most down to earth?
Mori(slightlyscented) is really honest and down to earth, shes honestly not afraid of who she is or afraid to admit her flaws on camera which I think is really brave. She just seems really honest and grounded which I love about her.
10.Who would you love to go shopping with?
I'd love to go shopping with Katie because she always seems to have amazing clothes in her hauls from Primark, so hopefully she'd be able to help me find some gorgeous bargains.
11.Who is someone you have watched from "the begining"
Thea and Bethany are both gurus I've watched grow up drastically and were two of the first people i subscribed to right from the start of their videos.
12. Who do you relate to/is most similar to you.
I relate to everybody mentioned, but I feel like I can relate to Megan a lot because we're the same age and I also have a long-term boyfriend and we seem to share the same views on things other than beauty, so I'd say mostly her.
13.Who has the prettiest smile?
I really don't think anybody can have an ugly smile because when you smile you instantly look more attractive, so I'm just gonna say everyone
14.Who has the prettiest room?
Blair(juicystar07) has such a gorgeous room. Its always perfectly tidy and I really love the way its decorated and stuff. As shes currently in the process of moving, I'm so excited to see what her new room looks like
15.Who would you want as a "big sister"?
I think Tanya again because she seems like such a sweet person and like she'd always be there for you. And I wouldn't mind having a few of her genes either haha
16.Who do you always learn something from?
I'm gonna say Blair again. I don't always learn beauty things from her, but because she talks so much, I learn something new about her in each video which I think is really fun and makes me want to watch more of her videos. In terms of actual beauty related things, Kelly(HairGirl247) because she always seems to have new tips and hairstyles that I normally haven't seen or heard before.
17.Who makes the most creative videos?
I think Megan, Fleur(FleurDeForce) and Bethany make creative videos because Megan and Bethany do fashion videos like DIY trends and stuff and they film in different places so they often have cool scenery behind them. Bethany does cooking videos sometimes and Fleur has done some cooking videos with Ingrid(missglamorazzi) which I thought was cool.
