Get Your Hair Party Ready For Australia Day With Aussie Haircare

aussiehaircareDid you know that it will be Australia Day soon? In fact it is on Sunday 26th January. To celebrate @Aussie_Hair_UK, Beautyandthedirt and The Sunday Girl are hosting a Twitter party this Friday between 12.30 and 1.30.

The Aussie Hair Care expert Liz Taw will be on hand to answer hair questions so you can get your hair party-ready for all of those Australia Day parties. You need to use the hashtag #aussieparty to take part. There is a lot of great party-hair looks around at the moment. We have been taking inspiration from the Golden Globes and the SAG/AFTRA awards.

Aussie will be giving away 10 sets of two products to those who tweet either a question for Liz or generally take part – these will be chosen at random throughout the chat and the winners will be dm’d.

Another reason to be excited: Aussie is launching brand new Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Light Deep Treatment Mousse, RRP £4.99, in store at the start of February. These are the perfect products to prepare your hair to make sure it’s healthy, shiny and party ready.

These are the perfect treatment for finer hair in need of deep hydration and nourishment. You will also be able to get your hands on 3 Minute Miracle Light Aussome Volume and 3 Minute Miracle Light Mega, which are both light weight conditioning mousses. There is also Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Light treatments. They fit in perfectly with your usual shower routine – start with your Aussie shampoo and conditioner of choice, follow with the whipped-cream like mousse, leave-in for 3 minutes then wash out for deep conditioning goodness. Now it’s easier than ever to ramp up your everyday hair routine with a little touch of magic; each treatment will help to nourish fine locks like they have never been nourished before.

The Aussie philosophy is: “There’s more to life than hair, but it’s a good place to start” Too true.

Tickets:         Free – Register at vInspired.com/gettrashed

Campaign Image Small

London’s iconic Ministry of Sound will play host to the first ever Car Boot Disco on 24th November. The Sunday afternoon Ministry party combines music, fashion and swapping to encourage young people to update their wardrobe by exchanging and customising clothes instead of spending on fast fashion.

The event launches vInspired’s Get Trashed campaign to save over 10,000 clothes from landfill before the end of the year. It will create a tribe of young people dedicated to re-using, recycling and having fun – whilst looking good at the same time. Young people will feel part of a movement, putting the issue of waste front of mind – empowering them to run their own events and spread the message via the Do Something channels, social media and word-of-mouth.

This free party is aimed at young people in London who are bored with their wardrobes and want a fresh update, but without the cost. vInspired is inviting anyone with swap-able clothes to come along to the event and take home something that is new to them but unwanted by someone else.

Rising fashion designers will be on hand, hosting special areas of the super-club to provide unique professional customisation like studding, badging and ripping – ‘pimping’ up tired looking items. Fashion scouts will be attending the Ministry of Sound event, looking for potential models who can rock any outfit – old or new – making this the perfect chance to showcase individual style.

Spinning the perfect soundtrack to for a Sunday afternoon session will be some of the very best DJs from the UK’s dance music scene who will be hitting the decks for the duration of the event. Remixing music alongside the remixed fashion.

Tickets to the event are free; for more information please visit www.vinspired.com/gettrashed <http://www.vinspired.com/gettrashed>

Renowned UK fundraising appeal, Jeans for Genes Day are celebrating their 2013 success

celebrity campaign supporters which include Melanie C, Michelle Keegan, Louise
Thompson, Lauren Goodger, Amy Childs, Tallia Storm, and Sophia Sassoon to name a

Jeans for Genes Day raises money for Genetic Disorders UK and aims to change the world
for children with genetic disorders. Genetic disorders affect 1 in 25 children born in the
UK – that’s more than 30,000 babies each year. Their associated health problems mean
that genetic disorders are the biggest cause of death of children aged 14 years and under.
Taking place this year on Friday 20th September 2013, Jeans for Genes Day is the well-
known annual fundraising event which simply asks the British public, children and adults
alike to wear their jeans for the day and make a £1 / £2 donation. Jeans for Genes Day
funds the care and support of children with genetic disorders through its grant
programme. In 2013, 21 charities will benefit from the funds raised on Jeans for Genes
Day.
Jeans for Genes Day have been lucky enough to be supported by some of the UK’s most
famous celebrity faces over the years including Robbie Williams, Amanda Holden, Kelly
Osbourne, Katie Price, Coleen Rooney, Stacey Solomon and Christine Bleakley to name just
a few!
This year’s Jeans for Genes Day campaign t-shirt and limited fashion edition t-shirt are
