Time and time again, I caught myself thinking: \u201cHow awesome would it be, if I could highlight my hair at home. No hair-nightmares attached. Simply stroking some heavenly bleach through these locks, and call it a fabulous day\u201d<\/em>.<\/p>\n

I was over the moon when I saw L\u2019Or\u00e9al Paris finally came with the solution! The Pr\u00e9f\u00e9rence Glam Highlights<\/strong> are here to make your hair Hollywood<\/em> ready in just a couple of easy steps! Highlights for dummies! Let\u2019s take a closer look, shall we?…<\/p>\n

First, I want to take this moment to appreciate mama-to-be<\/em>, Blake Lively\u2019s stunning visuals for this campaign. Uhm, hello perfect hair and makeup!<\/p>\n

\"LorealHighlights01\"<\/a> \"hop\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I\u2019m using the L\u2019Or\u00e9al Paris Pr\u00e9f\u00e9rence Glam Highlights\u00a0(\u20ac16,99 EUR) in N\u00b02 today. The perfect match for blondes. There’s also a perfect match for brunettes, the N\u00b04. Not gonna lie, I was a little bit worried N\u00b02 wouldn\u2019t be strong enough for my light blonde hair, but it worked beautifully. You\u2019ll see in a bit, don\u2019t worry!<\/p>\n

In the kit you\u2019ll find\u2026<\/p>\n

\"LorealHighlights03\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Left: Lightening Cream. This helps giving the hair a beautiful, healthy reflection. Middle: This pot is going to be your cauldron. All magic potions go in here. Right: Some good ol\u2019 bleach!<\/p>\n

This is your applicator. It has been divided into three sections. It\u2019s designed especially for giving the hair that flawless highlighted finish. It has longer bristles on the sides, for irregular, naturally mixed highlights. And shorter bristles on the middle to guarantee smooth distribution of product. The brush is very easy to work with, and sits nicely in your hand. I really liked working with it!<\/p>\n

\"LorealHighlights04\"<\/a><\/p>\n

You\u2019ll also find some Pr\u00e9f\u00e9rence shampoo to re-charge the hair after highlighting it. This also locks in the highlights, giving them a radiant finish.<\/p>\n

\"LorealHighlights06\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Of course, there also is a manual. Hallelujah, haha, where would we be without a manual, right! I recommend reading this entirely before starting your highlighting process, in order to prevent any errors.<\/p>\n

\"LorealHighlights07\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And last but not least, gloves! I strongly suggest using gloves as your skin may be sensitive to the bleach. Unfortunately the gloves L\u2019Or\u00e9al provided were way too small for my Godzilla hands, so I opted for the gloves I have in my professional kit.<\/p>\n

Time for the golden hour<\/em>! I read the manual carefully before starting, and followed the steps. I mixed my magic potion and started coloring…<\/p>\n

Applying the mixture with the applicator is easy-peasy. Here are some tips to remember:
