Hair&Me Intense Repair Hair Mask Review.

Hair & Me are a wonderful brand that create natural haircare and skincare products and use incredibly beneficial ingredients.
Funnily enough I had been desperate to find a new hair mask when I was contacted and sent this beauty- the Hair & Me Intense Repair Hair Mask!*

After looking at the ingredients list in this product I knew it was going to be a real treat. What I look for in a hair mask is ingredients that will lock in moisture and deeply nourish my hair- and this has all of the above and more!
It contains:
-Shea Butter to lock in moisture.
-Avocado Oil to nourish with nutrients and protect the hair.
-Argan Oil to repair the scalp and hair while moisturing.
-Coconut Oil to strengthen, deeply hydrate and create healthy hair and hair growth.
-Peppermint Oil to normalise the PH level and create a healthy scalp.

I have to say, this is by far the BEST hair repair mask I have ever used! Normally after using other hair masks, even natural ones, I won't be able to tell any difference and I just hope that it is helping my hair. With this mask however, I notice a difference in my hair every time I use it and I absolutely love it!
 I use this in a few ways, whether applying it to damp hair 15 minutes before shampooing or leaving it on for a longer time then shampooing. Each time my hair is left feeling so healthy and fresh! It's soft, smooth and feels hydrated- something my hair isn't always used to! Another bonus is that even though I have very long hair I still manage to get around seven uses out of this product. The beautiful peppermint aroma is so delicious. It smells like your applying peppermint chocolate all over your hair! I honestly can't say enough good things about this mask except that other masks sure have a lot to live up to now.
If you're in the market for a deeply hydrating mask that locks in moisture and leaves your hair feeling incredible I simply can't recommend this one enough! 

Price/Purchase From: $18.00 for 90g- Available at www.hairandme.com.au

Dr Bronner's Pure Castile Soaps Review.


Dr Bronner's pride themselves on using organic and Certified Fair Trade ingredients in their products and have a wide variety of products for many purposes. 
Today I'm reviewing the Pure-Castile Soap* and Pure-Castile Bar Soap*!

Pure-Castile Soap:

This concentrated, biodegradable and versatile cleanser can be used for so many different things including a face and body cleanser, for shaving, added into a bath or foot spa and even as a natural cleanser for any household duties! Basically anything you wish to clean or cleanse with natural ingredients then this is a fantastic option. It contains Organic Coconut Oil, Organic Palm Kernel Oil, Organic Olive Oil, Organic Jojoba Oil and more!
I have used this for many of the options above an absolutely love it. This one in particular is Hemp Cherry Blossom so it has a lovely, subtle Cherry Blossom aroma. Not only does it use all completely natural ingredients but it works to really cleanse properly. This is such a great option for those wanting a natural alternative to cleansers and cleaners!

Pure-Castile Bar Soap:

This is a beautiful soap for use on the body and I absolutely love it. It contains Organic Coconut Oil, Organic Olive Oil, Organic Hemp Oil, Organic Jojoba Oil, Vitamin E and more! It has a lovely natural Cherry Blossom aroma and leaves my skin super soft and smooth. As it is all natural it doesn't dry my skin and yet still lathers nicely. I'm very picky about soaps and this one is definitely a goody! It doesn't dry out in itself and leaves my skin continually feeling renewed and supple. I highly recommend it for those wanting a natural, gentle soap that leaves skin hydrated, nourished and smooth.

The Pure-Castile Liquid Soaps are packaged in 100% Post Consumer Recycled plastic and the Pure-Castile Bar Soaps are packaged in 100% biodegradable packaging- all the Dr Bronner's products are available from your local health shops or online at www.drbronners.com.au

Eco Tan Invisible Tan Review.


With so many at home tanning options available it can be really hard to choose which one to try out, not to mention the nasty ingredients you could be applying to your skin. This is why I'm such a huge fan of the Eco Tan brand and decided to try out their Invisible Tan after seeing so many awesome results on their Instagram page! 

Unlike many, many other at home tanning lotions, the Eco Tan Invisible Tan contains all natural and organic ingredients so you can apply it with peace of mind. It is also made in Australia, vegan and cruelty free. Just some of the ingredients in this beautiful lotion include Avocado Oil, Macadamia Oil, Chamomile and more! 

This Certified Organic lotion gives a beautiful, streak free, healthy glow to the skin in just 6-8 hours and I absolutely love it! It has no colour guide which worried me at first but alas it came out wonderfully glowy with zero streaks.
After showering and exfoliating I apply this with a tanning mitt a few hours before bed and sleep in it. I then wake up to lovely warm, honey bronzed skin in the morning (and it leaves absolutely nothing on my white sheets!) It dries quite quickly which is so important for me and my skin feels nourished and hydrated afterwards. What I love about this is that even though I shower twice a day my tan stayed on for a whole week before it needed me to re-apply it- I was pleasantly surprised! 

This is by far the best tanning lotion I have ever used and I'm so glad I tried it! If you're in the market for an at home tanning lotion with natural and organic ingredients that leaves your skin looking and feeling amazing I highly recommend this one! 

Price/Purchase From: $34.95- Available from your local health shop or online at www.ecotan.com.au and other health/skincare websites.

SugarBaby Vita+Skin Wonderbalm Review.


The SugarBaby Vita+Skin range is by far my newest skincare obsession. With incredibly nourishing and natural ingredients and not to mention very affordable prices, their range is hard to beat! 

Today I'm reviewing the SugarBaby Vita+Skin Wonderbalm!

This beautifully formulated balm contains so many nourishing ingredients that focus on hydrating the skin and locking in moisture. 
It contains Castor Oil, Certified Organic Coconut Oil and Cocoa butter to seriously lock in hours of much needed moisture. Jojoba Oil, Sunflower Seed Oil and Olive Oil all work to replenish dry skin, as well as Vitamin E and Certified Organic Papaya Fruit Extract to heal and repair the skin. You can see why I love it so much!! 

I love applying this to any areas of my skin that need serious hydration. You can apply it to dry lips, insect bites, dry heels, dry cuticles, stretch marks and more! Anywhere on your skin that needs to be renewed and nourished. My favourite way to use it is as an ultra hydrating lip balm and on any dry patches on my legs that may arise. I find these sorts of balms (especially those with Castor Oil like this one) really work so much better than other products at repairing and nourishing dry skin. If you're in the market for an "Everything Balm" then I highly recommend this one! 

Price/Purchase From: $14.99 for 50g- Available from your local Priceline Pharmacy or online at www.sugarbaby.com.au

Moogoo Shea Sorbet Review.


Yes, today I'm reviewing yet another amazing product from the MooGoo brand. *sigh* I just love their products. 

Today I'm reviewing the MooGoo Shea Sorbet!

I've totally fallen in love with this butter balm. It's designed for use on any extremely dry areas of the body, especially heels, hands and lips. I can't say I've used it on my hands but I have used it all over and I can safely say I absolutely LOVE this product!

So what's in it?!

This Shea Sorbet includes incredibly hydrating ingredients including Shea Butter and Coconut Oil to lock in moisture and intensely nourish, as well as Apple Cider Vinegar, Hemp Seed Oil, Vitamin E, Lime Oil and more! 
These are fantastic for nourishing and repairing the skin. The lime oil also adds the delicious aroma to the product- hence its name being "sorbet." (It's also a gorgeous sorbet consistency.)
This product is perfect for any ultra dry areas of the body and especially any areas that are so dry that they have cracked. 

I have used this balm on my lips, heels and legs and absolutely love it. It deeply nourishes the skin and gives long lasting moisture. 
For my heels it has definitely been the best product I've ever used on them to keep them hydrated and repaired. I simply apply the balm to my heels and work it in till it "melts" into the skin. I get best results applying thick, comfy socks straight afterwards and leaving them on for a few hours. I can't say how much I love it!
It has also been amazing for my lips by locking in moisture and leaving them looking much more hydrated. It's been beyond amazing for the dry areas on my legs and has helped nourish my skin more than anything else I've ever tried. My skin looks so fresh, healthy and renewed after using this! I highly recommend it for ANY dry areas of the body and I thoroughly enjoy using it.

Price/Purchase From: $17.95- Available from your local health shop/pharmacy or online at www.Moogoo.com.au
