Beautiful Locks With Biorganics Hair Therapy*


I'm thrilled to bring to you another company which specify in Hair care who doesn't use any harsh chemicals, and are also cruelty free.

This Company is BiOrganics, their products have started to become very popular within the eco bloggers community and with celebrities such as, Janey Lee Grace (Radio 2 presenter and no 1 personality in the natural beauty yearbook 2013) And (Pollyanna Woodward of the Gadget Show.) I was honoured to have the opportunity to review a selection of their salon secrets hair care products which target dry, damaged and frizzy hair.

All opinions and comments are 100% my own and here is how I got on with them!

Products that I'll be reviewing - Salon Secret Replenishing Shampoo, Salon Secret Replenishing Treatment and the Salon Secret Elixir. 

Salon Secret Replenishing Shampoo

From my own personal experiences with shampoos that are created to target coloured or damaged hair, haven't left me with the salon perfect results that they promise. I either find them even more dryer than before or it just goes too frizzy. My current hair condition I would say is quite dry, coloured hair and slightly damaged from heat styling. The replenishing shampoo has its purpose of using a blend of natural ingredients that repair, moisture and protect the hair of breakage; Containing the famous Argan Oil and ylang ylang which I've heard great results on giving a glossy and healthy shine. During my hair routine I applied a 50p sized amount in my palm which I worked to cover both of my palms, before applying to my wet hair and massaging to the scalp. The scent of the product isn't over powering, I would say its a fresh fragrance that you can definitely smell the Ylang Ylang within. I washed my hair with this shampoo twice then used a moisturising conditioner from my previous hair routine. I wasn't expecting a massive change from the one use, but I was pleased with the results after I Blow-dried! My hair instantly felt smoother and looked shiny too.
I've been using this shampoo all the time as my routine and I've really noticed the difference it's already looking healthier and so is the colour it's calmed the tone down and made it natural appearing. 
I've noticed that using a shampoo that is free from SLS & Parabens it makes a big difference and is much more healthier for your hair; I'd recommend this shampoo to anyone who like me has dry, thick and needs that extra glossy boost!


Salon Secret Replenishing Treatment

As part of this set, there was a replenishing treatment that is an intense deeper treatment for damaged hair; It's been tested to repair and restore including UV protection and reduces colour fading. Ingredients include Vegetable proteins, Argan oil and Sunflower seed extract. My hair has particularly suffered when the weather and heat has been unbearable, causing my hair to dry and weaken; I've used this treatment adding a small amount into my palms before smoothing it through clean and wet hair, Then I left it on between 5-10 Minutes like a hair mask. Rinsing thoroughly and drying my hair again I was speechless from the results, my hair was refreshed and felt incredibly clean. I'd recommend using this at least once a week, not to over do it as the results are pretty quick even from someone with thick hair!


Salon Secret Elixir

Lastly is the wonderful Elixir that I was curious in using; mainly due to not applying anything to my hair before I blow dry it at home and also it is the first hair oil I've used. Now this product is what I use every time before I dry my hair, I can't see why I was so worried! As my hair type is thick I used 2 pumps of the oil and rubbed it into my palms before working it on the tips and then the length of the hair, avoiding both the root and scalp. Then I brushed my hair into its style with a comb and blow dried. It helped tackle my issue of frizz when I usually dry my hair, revealing it to look a lot smoother and that also my hair dried quicker with the oil than without! It is a recommended hair oil at an affordable price!

Natures Healthbox - Avalon Organics Shampoo & Conditioner Review *




Today's post is featuring a wonderful new company that is called, Natures Healthbox, they specialise in limited to organic, eco-friendly and natural products from skin products to home cleaning! 
I had the opportunity as a blogger to experience the Natures Healthbox experience by reviewing products that can be purchased through their site. I was kindly sent both of these hair care products, which were received nicely packaged with bright tissue paper and green shredding which really reflected the organic and eco theme so well!  

Both of these hair products are the Avalon Organics brand, the shampoo and conditioner both focus on giving the hair more shine naturally with a Ylang Ylang base and enriched with mica minerals, babassu oil, plus vitamin E, panthenol and arginine.


Both bottles are 325ml (11 FL OZ) and clearly mark how the product will help to improve the hair, directions of use and a list of ingredients but it's also noted that they don't contain artificial colours, synthetic fragrances or parabens. With this is mind i was very eager to try them out! My natural hair colour is a dark blonde, but with having highlights etc i have focused a lot on coloured hair shampoos and conditioners. Sometimes i feel my hair can get quite dry and dull at times, i used the shampoo twice, made sure it was thoroughly massaged in and rinsed throughout, to then add the conditioner from the roots up and left it to absorb efficiently.  

The scent was indeed something i wasn't too sure of, but i grew to like it over time! from drying my hair i instantly saw a difference, it was much more glossy, and the blondness enhanced so much more; it made my hair feel so much healthier due to the friendly ingredients within.

I've had so much positive thoughts from using these products and i'll be sure to check out the rest of their eco-friendly line!



These products are £5.99 each which i think for the amount of product you get it's a reasonable price! Please check out their brand new website - http://www.natureshealthbox.co.uk/
