For the past couple of years, I’ve been regularly singing the praises of Superdrug’s Colour Effects wash-in conditioning colour. This product costs all of £1.99 (And it’s normally on special offer, too, so you’ll get it for even less than that), and the ‘Warm Copper Gold’ shade was exactly the right shade …
