Weleda Millet Nourishing Shampoo
A quick’en as I have presents that aren’t going to wrap themselves. If you find it difficult to get hold of a good shampoo, not loaded with nasty, artificial crap and hair damaging silicones, then Weleda Millet Nourishing Shampoo is a great option. It smells absolutely fantastic and I hate to say this as I’m a…

Fudge Skyscraper Hairspray
I really have no excuse not for posting about this months ago, particularly considering I’ve been using it every day since about May. Fudge Skyscraper Hairspray is the best hairspray I’ve come across and blows the likes of Elnet and my previous favourite, Got2B Glued by Schwarzkopf, totally out the water.

AvedaBath & BodyBody MoisturisersBody TreatmentsDry / Dehydrated SkinHair & Scalp TreatmentsHaircare & Hair StylingAveda Energising Composition
Definitely Aveda’s all-in-one product. This is designed perfectly for body, hair and scalp for both massage and/or moisturisation. I’ll be honest and say I’m relatively unfamiliar when it comes to cosmetic oils of any sort so this has definitely been a good introduction. Simply massaging it into my hair and scalp 5-10 minutes before jumping…
