More More More – The Best of the Rest

By Holly | Published: February 8, 2012

Last week, we announced the winner of our Aussie More More More competition as the lovely Lauren of Lauren Loves.

Lauren won a well-deserved £250 worth of ASOS vouchers, but there were a few other Aussie Angels who we felt deserved a special mention for their aussome efforts in blogging about Aussie’s new bigger bottles.

We really like Phoebe of Peluxe‘s soft waves and neat fishtail from the looks she created:

 

 

We also loved the entries from Carla (The Girl with the Golden Touch) who took this great picture of her blow-up Aussie bottle next to her gigantic Christmas tree as well as creating a great hair photo diary:

 

 

 

Our lovely Angel Kelly, over at KLG Hair Advice wrote a glowing report of Miracle Moist, saying, “Miracle Moist has helped my hair regain some of its stretch and I do feel I suffer less shedding and breakage. It lathers really well and the conditioner is thick and doesn’t leave hair feeling heavy. I would recommend this product for people with dry hair that is in need of moisture.”

The lovely Clare over at Big Beauty Blog did us a cute photo montage of her whole family using her new bigger bottles and commented that despite she, her husband and her two kids using the bottles, “my Aussie Aussie Miracle Moist Shampoo 500ml and Conditioner 400ml are still about a 1/4 full!”

Finally we just had to share this picture of Cat fresh from an Aussie wash from her blog Cat’s Little Obsessions. Don’t she and her hair look totally gorgeous?

 

 

Thanks to all our Aussie Angels for their efforts and we look forward to seeing you all soon! xo

Introducing the Queen of More More More!

By Holly | Published: February 1, 2012

Now as you know, here at Aussie not only do we love to treat our Angels but we love to challenge them too! Just before Christmas we sent our Angels some of our new bigger bottles of Miracle Moist Shampoo and Conditioners and set them a little task. The More More More challenge was to create an online diary to see how many washes they could get out of our new bigger bottles (…the answer is heaps!). The Angels documented their fabulous freshly-washed styles after every wash, and the team here at Uncover Aussie have had a real tough time picking a winner!

There were some truly outstanding entrants, just as we’d expect from our brigade of big-haired beauties, but one girl truly stood hair and shoulders above the rest, and that girl is our very own Lauren of Lauren Loves!

This very well-deserving winner created some stunning hair styles and even went the extra mile with YouTube videos showing us how to get some of her aussome Aussie looks.

“I REALLY enjoyed this challenge as you might be able to see!” Lauren said. She was also impressed with the value of the new big bottles. “Overall, my bottles have around 25% left and that’s after almost 2 months of washing my hair every other day.”

The lovely Lauren will receive £250 worth of ASOS vouchers – and we can’t wait to see what she buys over at Lauren Loves!

Without further ado, here are some of the winning looks from our Queen of More More More.

 

Wash 1 - Curly posh up do

Wash 2 - French pleats into a bun

Wash 3 - Double halo braid

Wash 4 - Messy bun

Wash 5 - High ponytail


Here’s my video on how to do a sideways french plait:

 


 

Wash 19 - Curly hair (I was trying to copy Zooey Dechanel!)

Wash 20 – A plaited bun. Apparently looked like a danish pastry

Wash 21 - Some up, some down and a flower

Wash 22 - Huge 60s hair with pinned back fringe

Was 23 - Crazy buns! (not a winning look here!)

Wash 24 -Plaited fringe hairband

 

Congratulations Lauren! xo

G’day 2012!

By Holly | Published: January 6, 2012

WELL WELL WELL! What a year 2011 was?!

I hope you’ve all recovered from the festive frolics and that you’re feeling recharged and ready for more Aussie fun this year :) The start of 2012 has had us feeling all sentimental (aww) so…. in preparation for heaps more fun over the coming months, here’s a quick recap of all the fun we got up to last year !

The start of 2011 saw us embark upon our #LusciouslyLight journey; in celebration of how lusciously light all Aussie’s conditioners are (which as you remember involved a lot of hilarious wigs, a lot of fun at boot camp and bucket loads of yummy hair).

It was also incredible to host our first event with all of our North and South Angels together celebrating the success of their journeys in the same incredible venue.

Once we had recovered from the candy floss making it was time to celebrate again, this time with our limited edition “Any Excuse to Party” bottles (because Aussie’s really will use any excuse!). It was AUSSOME getting your communities involved and sharing the Aussie-versary love, with the additional bonus of actually getting to meet the lucky community winners at our fab rooftop wrap up party! It was an amazing night, and a great chance to catch up with one another as well as being pampered by the lovely stylists and beauty teams.

Towards the end of 2011, we saw the introduction of our new super-size “More More More” bottles, and we loved seeing your reactions to the GINORMOUS present we sent you in the post (have you found a good use for yours yet?!). We hope that your friends enjoyed trying out the new bigger bottles over Christmas, it’s been great hearing all the lovely feedback… well Christmas is the season for giving after all!

We’ve had some superb diary entries already; our Angels really are a creative bunch! Don’t forget you have until the 30th January 2012, so there’s still plenty of time to get your hands on that £250 ASOS voucher (just imagine!)

You can find the terms and conditions for the challenge here www.uncoveraussie.co.uk/uncategorized/aussie-angels-more-more-more-competition GOOD LUCK!

So it’s a MASSIVE thank you from me and the rest of the team here at Aussie, we love you all and can’t wait for more fun times in 2012!

Love Holly xoxo
