I was so happy to finally get to try the It’s A 10 hair care line. I hadn’t been able to find a lot of online reviews about the line, but it still seemed to a favourite of many beauty bloggers. I was particularly keen to try the It’s A 10 For Blondes series, including the Leave-In Spray and Five Minute Hair Repair. The first thing I noticed was how [...]
As you know, I seriously love the India line from ICON hair products. The India Shampoo cleans my hair beautifully without drying it out, and the India Conditioner makes my hair silky and manageable without weighing it down. ICON India has made it’s way into Holy Grail Hair Prodz Status in my arsenal, and I can’t imagine being without it. But with winter dryness and wanting to use heated styling [...]
Anselm Feuerbach, Gaia*, 1875 Its not hard to find things make you look and feel beautiful, are gentle and natural and are good for the planet. Two of my fave lines fit this criteria perfectly.

If you are not familiar with this stunning boutique, Thann is a boutique that features a range of all-natural hair, skin, and body care, for women and men, formulated from botanicals and essential oils by combining the art of natural therapy with modern science. All products are dermatologically tested, paraben free suitable for even the most sensitive of [...]
In my efforts to purge silicones from my hair routine I ended up revisiting an old favourite hair conditioner.
