Gracie Lou – delivery free for you!

We received an email today from our reader Lizzie to say

Just wanted to let you guys know that a Wellington makeup/frangrance website has free delivery until end of June!. They have such fantastic prices on there and all the top brands! Cheaper than strawberrynet!

So of course I headed along to www.gracielou.co.nz to have a looksee. My credit card is very very angry with me right now for the dress I bought the other day, not to mention looming unemployment, but otherwise, I would probably be doing some shopping there right now. The Pop Beauty eye compacts are pretty, the idea of Smashbox 24 carat gold mascara really intrigues me, and there are some brands on the site I haven’t heard of before. So if you’re into that sort of thing, go nuts! And don’t forget to let us know how it goes.

A dollop of awesome

When the lovely Miss Amy and Miss Joanna gave me the brand new Dollop pomade I was skeptical. After all, I am a Dapper Dan man and have been for years. But, friends, I can tell you I have changed my tune.

Dollop’s pomade is, like any pomade, greasy to the touch and is perfect for creating those beautiful Donald Draper hairstyles that all the ladies like these days.

What sets Dollop apart is the wonderful smell. Dollop’s spicy ginger fragrance is incredibly nice and is a nice change from the usual chemically smells of other men’s hair products. And best of all it’s all natural ingredients.

The texture of Dollop pomade may put some guys (and girls) off. It is a greasy oily and can give your hair a dirty feel. But don’t worry, it softens during the day and feels like “normal” after an hour or two.

Also the clever both-ways-up Dollop logo means I always know what I’m reaching for (no matter my state in the morning).

(And as a person with long hair who usually doesn’t do very much to it, I think a tiny little bit of Dollop rubbed through makes a really nice light setting product, but Hadyn stole the stuff away before I had a proper chance to experiment with it)
