Recently in the news, there has been a few headlines about the dangers of mass produced cosmetics, with the toxic chemicals that are composite in the makings of our cosmetics. So it got me thinking that, even though I am not a big user of cosmetics (I prefer the natural look), I should really have a tidy up of my make up bag and instead of keeping lots of old make up ( which is one of the worst things you can do), I would throw them away and just buy the few essentials that I will use on a regular basis.

I was lucky that it was my birthday recently so I got my girlfriends to each buy me one item. It is a great idea and helps cut the cost down and now I have a new make up bag filled with wholesome cosmetics that I actually want to use.

Inika Mineral Bronzers

If you are on the pale side like myself, sometimes we need a little extra help to look healthier. So for me I like to go for a bit of artificial help. This bronzer gives you a warm tanned look; use it on your face or mix it with your body moisturiser, to help create an all over tan, all year round. Coming in a choice of 3 skin tone colours, it is certified 100% vegan and cruelty free. Available from Buy Organics for £17.99. Continued

I need to buy this and quickly.  This could be the answer to all my prayers, because no matter what I do, my daughters hair is always a tangled mess.  At the moment the knot is getting bigger and bigger and I feel a trip to the hairdressers for a drastic cut may be my only option.  This claims to instantly remove tangles, prevent breakage, restore moisture, and soften and condition the hair organically.  It is gentle enough to be used daily and does not contain any of the nasties which are so bad for our kids.  Available from Afro Best for only £2.82 for a 12oz bottle.
