Promoting a healthy lifestyle

January 10, 2022 By in Health and Well-being Tags: , , , , , , , , , , 3 Comments

Hello everyone! Welcome to a new week. There is a new category now on the blog and it is all about health and well-being. I will be featuring regular posts on this section and they will be all about how to maintain a healthy lifestyle. I have always been interested in health and wellness, and I have featured many posts on the topic on Fashion and Style Police over the years.

My interest has increased even more now with me paying more attention to my health, going vegetarian, using only natural skin and hair products, eating organic as much as possible, and studying psychology with a particular interest in clinical health psychology. In this new blog category, I will be featuring posts with tested tips to help you maintain a healthy lifestyle. Also, I will be promoting and selling natural products you could implement into your lifestyle to help maintain and improve your overall health. So keep reading.

What is health?

“A state of complete physical, mental and social. well-being and not merely the absence of. disease or infirmity” – WHO Constitution

I like this definition from the World Health Organisation because it covers all parts of our being. Good health is not just the absence of disease. Health is more than that. It covers our physical, mental, emotional, psychological, and social well-being. Many people only focus on their physical, ignoring all the other bits until they rise up to the front due to a disorder and can no longer be ignored. Good health means all parts of your being are in a healthy state, which should be the goal.

I am excited to embark on this new journey and share my knowledge and experience. It is possible to maintain a healthy lifestyle. These 5 steps to mental wellbeing by NHS is a great guide to get your mental well-being on point.

Do you have any healthy lifestyle tips to share? What sort of natural products do you use on a daily basis? Are you interested in essential oils?

 

 

 

 

 

Product Review: SheaMoisture Palm Oil & Cocoa Butter Range

February 4, 2020 By in Beauty, Product Reviews Tags: , , , , , , , 4 Comments

*PR samples.

I am a huge fan of SheaMoisture hair products and you would know this if you have been reading my product reviews posts. SheaMoisture products are my go-to haircare products. I have used them since I started the natural hair journey and my experience with the brand has been amazing. When an opportunity came for me to review this SheaMoisture Palm Oil & Cocoa Butter Range, I took it with my both hands. The SheaMoisture Palm Oil & Cocoa Butter Range consists of three products.

 

RED PALM OIL & COCOA BUTTER RINSE OUT OR LEAVE IN CONDITIONER

SheaMoisture review image

 

This conditioner works great as a rinse-out or leave-in. It is fantastic for curly, coily and shrinkage-prone hair. My 4C coily hair shrinks a whole lot, which is really annoying. So this conditioner will be put to good use. I am loving it so much already. The blend of Cocoa Butter and Palm Oil is amazing because it is rich in antioxidants. The Flaxseed Oil helps combat shrinkage, maximising the length of the hair. This SheaMoisture hair conditioner also enhances my curls in a beautiful way.

 

RED PALM OIL & COCOA BUTTER DETANGLING SHAMPOO

This detangling shampoo is the real deal. My 4C hair is prone to tangling so having a shampoo to deal with that is great. This shampoo is great for detangling the hair, leaving it clean, shiny and tangle free. It is now one of my favourite hair shampoos. The combination of the ingredients are just too good.

 

RED PALM OIL & COCOA BUTTER SHINE BUTTER

This Reshaping Shine Butter with Flaxseed Oil is great for softening and reshaping hair styles for the curly/coily hair. It is lightweight and moisturising. It is also very easy to use to create various hair styles.

 

PROS
  1. The range is quite affordable. I will be linking to the Amazon pages for those interested in buying.
  2. The packaging is quite attractive. The bright colour was the first thing that caught my eye.
  3. I love the ingredients in all the products. They are great for my 4C hair.
  4. The products leave my hair clean, soft, shiny and tangle free.
  5. I love the fact that it has an anti-shrinkage formulae. My hair shrinks after every wash, so being able to retain the length is important to me.
  6. The products smell good.
  7. I love the fact that the SheaMoisture products are Sulfate free.
  8. The range is great for the following hair types – 3A, 4A, 3B, 4B, 3C, 4C.
