Infuse My Colour shampoos infuse your hair with colour pigment as you shampoo. 100% PETA Certified Cruely-Free and Vegan, free from parabens, silicones and sulfates. I have used Infuse My Colour Ruby Shampoo in the past and although I didn't see much results before, (having very dark hair at the time) I wanted to revisit the brand now that my hair is red. My.Haircare has also recently added a coloured conditioner to the range so I wanted to try that in conjunction with the shampoo. Infuse My Colour Ruby Shampoo * (£16.95, 250ml) maintains brightness and adds vibrancy to red, red-brown and burgundy coloured hair. Ruby is great on dark brown coloured hair to enrich and add warmth, or can be used on bleached blonde to create striking pink tones. The Infuse my Colour Ruby Conditioner (£18.99, 250ml) delivers a super dose of pigment instantly whilst hydrating and reconstructing the hair fibres. Enriched with Hibiscus flower extract strengthening the hair and promoting a healthy scalp. ...

Weleda Skin Food Body Butter * (£19.75, 150ml) Weleda's Skin Food gives intensive moisture to dry or very dry skin. Harnessing the powers of Weleda’s original and well-loved Skin Food, the fragrant body butter imbues your skin with a unique combination of botanical extracts. Wild pansy, calendula and chamomile help soothe and comfort dry skin, while organic shea and cocoa butter leave it intensely nourished and petal-soft. Just look at the gorgeous texture... I love it! I found this body butter easy to apply and it absorbs quickly into skin. The butter is not at all greasy, and leaves skin soft and deeply hydrated. A subtle scent of orange and lavender is left behind. The Weleda Skin Food Body Butter is the perfect treat to nourish and provide long lasting care and comfort for dry skin. *Gifted to me to review as part of Love Lula Accredited Blogger Program.

I'm always on the lookout for ways to improve my health and get more vitamins into my daily routine, so I have done away with my usual daily bottle of Lucozade and replaced it with vitamin water.

One of the changes I made for Plastic Free July was to swap out my usual cling film and plastic food bags for a more eco-friendly option.  WaxWrap Waxed Cotton Food Wraps * (£16) are an easy to use alternative to single use plastic. Made from 100% natural materials: organic cotton cloth coated in a mixture of beeswax, pine resin and jojoba oil, which all work together to keep your food fresh. WaxWraps are both self-adhesive and waterproof and can be used to cover containers or as a second skin for fruits, vegetables and more. The natural materials allow the food to breathe, keeping it fresher for longer. The wraps are super easy to use; allow the heat of your hands to mould and shape the wrap to fit around anything, size permitted. When utilised correctly each WaxWrap product will last for around a year, and when your WaxWrap product comes to the end of its life, simply put in your compost bin. The WaxWrap set I choose comes in a set of three (designs may vary). Each wrap is a...

Sugar waxing has been on my radar for a while, but I have never been brave enough to try it (I'm a razor kinda girl) but when I saw the new products from Sugar Coated land at Love Lula I put my fears aside and ordered the Sugar Coated Leg Hair Removal Kit * (£9.99, 200ml) Sugar Coated is a 100% natural vegan sugar wax.
