Hey!
This is my first [proper] post and I'm reviewing the Mark Hill Pick n Mix range. These are hair-styling products involving a new, innovative concept.
Today, I'm going to be focusing on the wand handle (which is obviously pretty important) and two of the five wand attachments that are available.
As you can see by the first image, the packaging is absolutely killing the game. The colour transition from pink to orange is beautiful.
Price wise, these aren't too bad, if you consider you'd usually have to buy separate wands for each style of hair you'd like.
For the chopstick style curls, a similar alternative is Lee Stafford's Chopstick Styler, which retails at around the £20 mark.
For the Mark Hill wand handle itself, you'll be paying £14.99. You can purchase these products in Boots. Of course, before you can start using your product, you'll have to buy a wand barrel. There are five different options. Ellipse Wave, Wicked Waver, Cork Screw, Medium and Small. These are shown in the image below.
The wand is remarkably easy to use! You simply pop in the attachment, and click to lock into place.
There's a simple on and off switch (one heat temperature, may be worth noting), and the barrel's heat up very quickly. It is important to note that there is no stand for the corkscrew barrel, while the others do have this, so you can rest the product on a surface while hot.
Overall, I really, really love this product. Corkscrew curls on my rather thin, rather short hair, lasted around three days before I needed to re-curl large sections. I've never had curl that lasted longer than a day!
I must say, I was inspired to buy the corkscrew curler after seeing Zoe Sugg (best known as Zoella, on YouTube) rock this look to the moon and back. If you want to see her styling those tight curls, you can find them on Google easily. She's also posted a video on how she achieves this look on her YouTube. Below I've attached a photo of myself, post corkscrew-curls.
I'd give this a strong 4/5.
I hope you enjoyed this review!
