To be honest I am fed up with hearing about the credit crunch so I am not going to wax lyrical about multi tasking products to beat the credit crunch blues. I would rather admit that everybody loves a bargain no matter what their circumstances but when the bargain proves to be a fantastic product as well then double the bonus.
The range of Coconut Oil products from Adara fit the above perfectly. Completely natural the products each contain pure organic coconut oil and an essential oil only. They multi task as a body, hair and facial product without a greasy after feel the oil provides a rich anti oxidant moisturiser.
Smooth onto your body for a natural skin softening, vitamin E rich treat, or massage into your hair for a luxurious, scented deep conditioning treatment. If that isn’t enough multi tasking for one product Adara’s oil makes a soothing make-up remover and softening facial toner too.

The new season is starting so why not clear out your old cosmetic bag and bring in the new ready for this seasons cat walk cosmetics.
The new design from Paul & Joe is not for everybody. Gorgeous, cute, adorable or sickly sweet. This cosmetic bag is something you are going to either love or hate. Personally, I want at least two, one for each hand.
This cosmetic pouch from Paul & Joe has bags of room for even more necessary cosmetic products. The top section has slim compartments for storing brushes and pencils. There are also transparent sections in the top compartment. The large vanity section has a pocket on the side to store smaller goodies.

Ojon Restorative Hair Treatment is a little known secret of the beauty world. I first started using it over 6 weeks ago and I have to say it is one of the best hair treatments I have ever tried.
Don’t be put off when you first purchase this item. In the pot is a thick (very thick) brown balm that on first appearance you might think is more suited as a boot polish than an effective hair moisturiser. However, it is in fact a very effective hair treatment that adds moisture, shine and lustre.
If you have frizzy hair then it calms and smoothes the hair shaft. If you normall straighten your hair in the hope of smoothing the frizziness then you will probably be less inclined to do so another benefit to your hair.

It’s festival time and the first big one is Download 12th June – 14th June. For all those headbanging moments the hair needs to be in tip top condition and the Rock Chick look needs to be preened to full capacity just in case a back stage pass is imminent. This can be tricky with limited access to showers and water. So I have found a couple of products to help keep the weekend rocking and rolling.
Try Tigi’s Rockaholic Dirty Secret Dry Shampoo. There are other dry shampoos on the market but this is one of the best.
Shake the can well and spray into the roots to absorb excess oil. Alternatively, spray throughout the hair to neutralise odour. A great solution to keep the hair looking clean and smelling fresh all weekend.

A work out while you go about your day to day business. This all seems too good to be true to me but the makers of Fitflops say not and that it is possible.
Fitflops have been designed biomechanically (this is a posh way of saying the study of the muscles and how much pressure and force is exerted by the muscles) by Dr David Cook and Darren James. Apparently, Fitflop wearers have repoprted that they can help to firm and tone the lower body, provide relief from plantar fascilitis,heel spurs, chronic back pain, osteoarthritis, lower limb water retention plus many other aches and pains. However, we are not making this claim this has simply been reported from the makers of Fitflops.
The makers of Fitflops tell us how they work;
FitFlops slow the eversion rate of the average person’s step, so that the time the muscle spends in an active state is increased during every step. The muscle fibres activated are the ‘slow twitch’ type, which are the fibres that create longer, leaner-looking limbs. Read More »

If you want a heady smell of Summer then Jo Woods Organics Amka is the the perfume to opt for. The heart of the perfume is Iranian Rose Otto and Egyptian jasmine extremely romantic. The top notes of neroli and bergamot add a twist of freshness and energy to the perfume.
Below the surface of the fragrance is the vibrant scent of green mandarin, sweet orange combined with soft spicy cedarwood as the base.
A wonderful concoction for Summer nights or Arabian Nights.

Eyebrows always seem to be a part of my face that I manage to deny all knowledge of. I’m not sure why but simply put I ignore these tiresome caterpillars.
I can be thankful that I am blessed with fair hair which means neglect is not so severe as perhaps it might be for a dark haired person. However, on my morning inspection of my face I was surprised to see that my caterpillars had grown and if I wasn’t careful would metamorphise into an ugly moth.
I quickly rescued my tweezers from the bottom of my makeup case and began the painful removal of the offending hairs. I now have shaped eyebrows that frame my face, in fact it is quite unbelievable the difference it makes. Eyeshadow sits better on the the eyelid, my eyes look less tired and a lot more perky.

L’Occitane have revamped their traditonal and much loved Rose fragranced range. The range is now more delicately packaged and emphasises the fact that the fragrance is not just one rose but a blend of four different roses.
L’Occitane is produced in Provance and their is a story that the Count of Forcalquier’s four beautiful daughters each had a favorite rose – the Grasse Rose, the Bulgarian Rose, the Moroccan Rose and the Turkish Rose. These four royal roses comprise the heart notes of this seductive summer fragrance.
This eau de toilette is a perfect fragrance for the Summer months. The four roses and the delicious combination of violet and blackberry make the fragrance light and fruity but with the lingering woody base of sandalwood, cedar and vanilla the fragrance remains sophisticated. A match for Bvlgari Rose perfume or Stella. Read More »
