All My Must-Have Picks in One Place: Follow Me on LTK

Welcome back

Today's post is a shameless plug, I was going to apologise for this but then, if I don't plug my own things, who will? So, this is a shameless plug post about my LTK account. 

LTK stands for Like To Know It, and it's an app and a website where I and lots of other creators (I hate that word almost as much as influencer) share the links from videos, blog posts, or social media posts where we share certain items with you, such as clothing, beauty products, and homeware. Basically, anything I share with you will be on my LTK account.

For example, I post a haul on my Instagram account and put the links to the things I've shared in that haul on my LTK account. I also share other things, such as outfit ideas, gift guides and gift ideas, favourites, and lots more. I share beauty, fashion, homeware, pet supplies, and much more with a direct link to the products. 

Below are two examples of a couple of posts I have on my LTK account, these are festive outfit ideas. So, if you like the red jumper in the first photo, you can click the image below the main image, and it'll take you directly to that jumper, so you can buy it if you like. LTK is an affiliate programme, meaning if you do buy anything from my links, I will make a few pence in commission, but it is only pence, I'm not about to become rich from this account. 

So, that is my LTK account and what it's all about, I have so many different posts on there, and I share lots of things there that I don't share on any of my other platforms. You can follow me on there too, and if you would like to, that would be very kind and much appreciated. It is hard to build a following on LTK, and I am 10 followers away from 100, so it means a lot to me when I get a new follower. 

And all that's left for me to say is, if you would like to check out my LTK account, you can find it HERE and thank you so much in advance if you do. 

If you're reading this and already follow me on LTK, thank you so much.

The New OGX Colour Retention Collection : Review

Review of the New OGX Colour Retention Collection

OGX haircare brand has recently launched a new collection, the Colour Retention Collection, the products in this collection claim to leave your hair with that fresh from the salon feeling for even longer and extend the life of a salon or at home colour for up to 7 weeks (based on 3-4 washings per week using the OGX Colour Retention shampoo and conditioner)

Data on File ***Tested by 113 UK hairdressers 2021"

AD PR Gifted

I have been using the products for the last few weeks, as have both of my daughters. We all have coloured hair, both myself and my youngest daughter have highlighted hair, and my eldest daughter has half and half, so half her hair is dark and the other half is bleached blonde. 

We have all used all the products, I have used the shampoo followed by conditioner, and once a week I have added the mask also. Most often I have used the shampoo and followed it using the mask instead of using conditioner. 

I was surprised how much of a lather the shampoo had considering it is sulphate free, sometimes shampoos without sulphates don't lather much, but this feels lovely and bubbly (is that even a word?) I always wash my hair twice, and this felt lovely to use, and I didn't need to use tons of it. As you can see from the photograph above, the consistency of the shampoo is quite thick, but it isn't too thick you can't squeeze it out of the bottle, and it rinses out with ease. 

Being someone who always had oily hair, especially at the roots, until a couple of years ago,  I still worry that using conditioner will leave my hair feeling and looking greasy almost immediately after having it washed. I used the conditioner on the mid lengths and ends of my hair avoiding my roots because of this. 

The mask is a nice creamy consistency and is not too thick, I used it on the mid lengths and ends of my hair, leaving it for a couple of minutes before rinsing. You can use the mask on dry hair for more intensity, but I didn't feel my hair needed it so I didn't try it. I didn't need to use much of the mask, although I do have very thin hair, I found a small amount was enough for my hair.  

My Thoughts:

Using The Products:

My first thought when using the OGX Colour Retention products was how lovely the scent was. They have a mild coconut scent with a touch of vanilla, a nice sweet scent that isn't overpowering. 

The first time I used the shampoo I thought it lathered really well for a sulphate free shampoo, as they don't usually lather too well, but it did and it rinsed out with ease and my hair felt lovely and clean after 2 washes. The shampoo and conditioner have quite a thick consistency, but not too thick that you can't squeeze it out of the bottle easily like some other brands I have tried. 

The conditioner left my hair feeling soft and tangle free, when my hair is wet it is very tangled, think bird's nest, so it was nice to be able to have my hair brushed through wet without feeling like I was being tortured. When I used the mask after shampooing instead of the conditioner, my hair felt so silky and smooth when wet, and was easy to get a brush through, so both the conditioner and the mask were great for my "bird's nest when wet hair" and after using both products, my hair brushed through without difficulty when it was wet, which is unheard of for me. 

After Using The Products:

My daughter washes and dries my hair for me as I struggle due to health issues, she uses a Wet Brush Flex Dry brush to brush my hair through when it's wet, this brush is amazing, I bought mine from Just My Look and it was around half the price of every other website I have seen it, if you want to try it, you can buy it here. 

When my hair is brushed through, my daughter rough dries my hair using her Dyson Airwrap and then she goes over it with the smoothing brush attachment which leaves my hair looking nice and tidy without having to have it straightened. 

I was so impressed the first time my hair was washed with the OGX products, the difference in my wet hair was amazing, it wasn't like a bird's nest and brushed through much easier than usual. Once dry, my hair looked smooth and shiny and felt so soft and silky, I couldn't stop touching it!

Having blonde hair, it doesn't really look shiny so I was pleasantly surprised to see the shine, it also smelt lovely too, I was really impressed with the look and feel of my hair and both my daughters said their hair looked and felt lovely and smooth too, my eldest daughter said the darker half of her hair hasn't faded as much as it previously has since using the products too which is a brilliant result. 

Overall:

I have been really impressed with all 3 of the OGX products and will definitely buy them in the future. They are all great products and left my hair feeling and looking lovely. Personally, I like to use the shampoo and then the mask in place of conditioner, but all 3 products are nice. My daughters have quite dry hair and they both like to use all 3 products when washing their hair, we have all been impressed with the way our hair looks and feels after using the products and my eldest daughter is really happy her darker colour hasn't faded as much since using them. 

The products would be ideal to take when travelling as the sun, sea and swimming pool water can leave the hair really dry and the sun fades the colour if you have coloured hair, and since the products have an anti fade formula to shield from UVA and UVB rays, it would be perfect for popping in your suitcase to take on holiday.

Overall I am really happy with all 3 products in the range and definitely recommend them, hopefully, I have covered any questions you may have, but if not, pop them in the comments and I'll be sure to get back to you. 

If you would like to try the OGX Colour Retention collection products, the best price I found was on Amazon, the shampoo is available here for £3.99, the conditioner here for £4.42 and the hair mask here for £5.33 which are all brilliant prices compared to other online sites I checked out, I will share the other prices I found and links below. 

I found the shampoo and conditioner on the  Superdrug website here retailing at £3.99 each, which is the most affordable price I found, but unfortunately, the mask wasn't available to purchase online. The most expensive price I found for the shampoo and conditioner was on the Boots website here retailing £7.99 each, the mask wasn't available to purchase online. 

Have you tried any of the OGX Colour Retention products? If so what are your thoughts? Let me know in the comments below, and if you haven't tried the products, do you think you'll pick them up to try? 

Thank you for reading

Philip Kingsley Pure Blonde Booster - My Thoughts

Post contains PR samples - links are not affiliate links

Having blonde hair, I like to use a purple shampoo for toning and keeping my blonde hair nice and bright, and it's fair to say, over the years, I have tried a lot of the brands available. 

When I was asked if I would like to try the Philip Kingsley Pure Blonde Booster I, of course, said "yes please", I haven't ever tried a product like it and I was intrigued to know how it worked. 

What Philip Kingsley Say About The Product

Our Pure Blonde Booster Shampoo is the best shampoo for highlighted, bleached and coloured hair. Containing optimum levels of violet micro-pigments, our toning shampoo helps clarify, hydrate and tone blonde, grey & highlighted hair.

• High shine, glossy finish

• Anti-frizz properties

• Ultra conditioning

The Philip Kingsley Pure Blonde Booster is a shampoo that you use just once a week after shampooing with your regular shampoo. It is always best to test a small amount before using to ensure the booster is suitable for your skin and hair type, and do not use until 14 days after having your hair, coloured, bleached or permed. 

Directions for use.

1. After shampooing, gently work through the hair, avoiding the scalp.
2. Leave for up to 3 minutes if the hair is bleached, up to 5 minutes if the hair is dyed, and up to 10 minutes if the hair is naturally blonde.
3. Rinse thoroughly. Use once per week. These timings are a guide only and should be halved for first use.

In our house there are 3 of us with blonde hair, my hair is naturally blonde, I do have it tinted, so it's a couple of shades lighter than my usual dirty blonde, but I don't have any bleach. My eldest daughter has a full head of highlights and her hair is bleached, and my youngest has a balayage type colour, using bleach. I thought because there are 3 of us who all use a purple shampoo, but all have different types of colour, it would be a good test to see how the product worked for us all. 

The first time I used the booster, I loved how my hair looked, it was bright and ashy and looked lovely, I was so impressed, and when my eldest saw my hair, she was really impressed too and decided she would try the booster that evening. 

Her hair was at that stage where it's due a colour refresh and was looking quite brassy, especially at the back, she came downstairs after using the booster for the first time and she and I were blown away, her hair looked amazing like she'd had a toner at the salon. My youngest was next to try the booster out, and like myself and my eldest, she loved the result and how her hair looked. 

All 3 of us loved the way our hair looked after just one use of the booster, none of us left it on very long, but it had worked brilliantly and knocked out all brassy tones from my eldest daughter's bleached hair. She was so happy with it, she said she was no longer paying for a salon toner and she was just going to use the booster instead from now on. 

All 3 of us continued using the booster once a week and our hair looked lovely, no brassiness, just nice bright blonde hair, my mum is naturally silver grey and I am going to ask her to try it too because I think her hair would look lovely after using it. Because we loved the booster so much, my youngest found a daily shampoo and conditioner in the same range from Philip Kingsley, and we ordered that too, and since then those are the products we have both mainly used on our hair, my eldest still uses them too,  but since her hair is very dry, she does use other specialist treatments to help with that on her hair also.

The Philip Kingsley Pure Blonde Booster colour correcting weekly mask is honestly the best product I have used on my hair and it has been the best at treating brassiness on my daughter's bleached hair too. Since using the bottle I was gifted as a PR sample, my daughter and I have repurchased it several times and as I said, we also use the daily shampoo and conditioner, and we have recently purchased the hair mask from the range. 

I couldn't recommend the Pure Blonde Booster highly enough and will continue to purchase, along with the shampoo and conditioner from the same range, it's a brilliant product and does exactly what it claims to do if you would like to try it, you can find it on the Philip Kingsley website HERE starting at £15.50 for a 75ml bottle, you can also find it on the Look Fantastic website, Cult Beauty, Boots and Feel Unique.

Have you tried the Philip Kingsley Pure Blonde Booster? Or anything from the range? 

Lee Stafford NEW Hair Growth Collection - AD/PR

If you have been reading my blog for a long time, you'll know that I am a big fan of the Lee Stafford hair products and hair tools. So a few weeks ago when I received some products from the NEW Hair Growth Collection, I was really looking forward to trying them. 

The two products I received are the Hair Growth Activation Treatment and the Hair Growth Styling Treatment Cream, both are in the Lee Stafford bright pink packaging and both have the Lee Stafford signature scent. When trying products, sometimes I will ask family members to try them too so I can give a perspective of someone else who may have a different skin type as me or face shape etc, or in this case, hair type. And when I received the products, I knew just the person to try them out with me, my eldest daughter. 

We both have different hair types but also have similar hair concerns and issues, so I thought she was the perfect choice to give her opinion on the products too, and she loves trying new things so she was happy to help. 

 

Lee Stafford Hair Growth Activation Treatment £9.99

The original Hair Growth boosting Intensive Treatment with a blend of powerful proteins to lengthen and strengthen hair from within.

Accelerate hair growth

Helps hair grow longer and faster

Vital hair and scalp complex helps reduce hair loss

Improves the condition of hair from root to tip

Repairs and reduces breakage

Healthy scalp

Great fragrance

The original Lee Stafford Hair Growth Treatment is an intensive hair saviour that is full of Pro-Growth complex, which conditions and strengthens from within. The soothing formula reduces irritation and moisturises the scalp, providing the perfect base to help hair grow faster. The new Hair Growth Treatment range has double the amount of Pro-Growth complex and plant-based proteins for longer, stronger hair. The Hair Growth Treatment helps to reduce hair loss by improving follicle health and in turn, increases the ability of the hair to anchor to the scalp. 

Both my daughter and I suffer from hair loss and we both have incredibly thin hair, my daughter's hair is bleached, so is on the dryer side but she does get oily roots sometimes too, my hair is dyed but with a tint, I don't have bleach on mine, my hair is very oily and not dry at all.

The Hair Growth Activation Treatment is easy to use after shampooing take an egg-size amount of product and apply to the hair from root to tip and leave for 5 minutes before rinsing. The treatment should be used every time your hair is washed until you see an improvement in the condition, and then once a week to maintain the condition of the hair. 

When we first tried the treatment, in all honesty, we didn't think it would do much, we thought it might be a gimmick, but I should have known better than to doubt a Lee Stafford product. From the first time using the treatment, we could both feel an improvement in our hair, it felt lovely and soft and did feel a little thicker. We continued to use it as advised and it has made such a difference to our hair, my daughter's hair condition has improved, it has grown and feels thicker, my hair feels soft and sleek and feels thicker too, we are both really happy with the result, so much so, we stocked up on some more!

Lee Stafford Styling Treatment Cream £8.49

A multi-tasking Hair Growth Protein Cream that styles whilst repairing hair from the inside out. Grow it Long, Grow it Strong. Created for hair that won’t grow past a certain length. Now with double the amount of PRO-GROWTH™ complex, containing plant-based Lupine Seed Protein, to protect from damage and breakage.                                               
 Lightweight Styling 
Heavyweight Strengthening 
Rebuilding 
Encourages Growth 
Moisturising

The Hair Growth Styling Treatment Cream is an intensive leave-in treatment that makes hair look better, feel better and grow better, it is a strengthening treatment that also doubles up as a smoothing styler that reduces split ends and smooths hair and calms frizz leaving the hair sleek and hydrated. 

The styling cream is used after the hair has been washed and towel-dried, using a pea-sized amount (or more if you wish) distribute the cream through the hair from the roots to the ends, do not rinse and style as normal. 

The styling cream left both mine and my daughter's hair feeling very soft and looking sleek and shiny, which is nice as blonde hair doesn't always look shiny. Since we've been in lockdown, then local lockdowns, tiers and whatnot, our hair hasn't been cut and coloured as it usually would, mine has been cut once in the last 11 months and my daughters 3 times, and as a result, we both have split ends. The cream definitely makes the split ends look much better, and our hair feels lovely, I don't have those annoying flyaway strands on the top of my head which drive me mad and my daughter's hair feels lovely, not dry at all and no frizz in sight. 

Overall Thoughts.

Both my daughter and I thought the packaging of both products was nice, we both love pink so it's a win-win, both products have the Lee Stafford signature scent and are both easy to open and use. 

Our hair definitely feels fuller and my daughter has noticed hers has grown a considerable amount considering the time frame of using the products, I stupidly didn't check where my hair was in terms of length, and 99% of the time I wear my hair up so I can't comment on growth but it is long and my family all say they think it's grown when they dry it for me. 

Both products leave our hair feeling soft and silky and looking smooth, the leave-in treatment really helps with split ends and our hair looks lovely and shiny too. We used the treatment each time we washed our hair at first but now we use it once a week as advised, it feels nice when it's on the hair, and my daughter said it is easy to distribute through the hair and easy to rinse out, and for those who may need someone to wash their hair like I do, she said it is easy to apply, use and rinse out of my hair too. 

We both love both products and they do both do exactly what it says on the tin, the only negative we could find is that if we use both products together, our roots do go oily quickly, mine more so than my daughters. That is something that is easily rectified though and now we don't use the leave-in treatment when we have used the Growth Activation Treatment and we don't have oily roots. Usually, if I use leave-in hair treatments, my hair does go oily quickly, especially at the roots, but it hasn't done with this product and other Lee Stafford leave-in treatments I've used in the past too to be fair. 

Overall we both love both products, both do what they claim and make our pandemic hair look much and feel much better than it did, whats not to like? It's a 10 out of 10 from both of us. 

If you would like to try the Hair Growth Activation Treatment or the Hair Growth Styling Treatment Cream, you can find them, and all the other products in the NEW Hair Growth range on the Lee Stafford website, here.

Last Minute Christmas Gift Ideas From Lee Stafford

PR Gifted Products 

I like me, you have been a little (a lot) unorganised for Christmas this year and still have some last minute shopping to do, I may have the answer for you with some brilliant gift sets from Lee Stafford.  

If you are a regular or long time reader of my blog, you will have seen me talk about Lee Stafford products and tools many times.  I love his hair products and hair tools and it wouldn't be Christmas if I didn't feature a gift or gifts as part of my Christmas gift ideas, from Lee Stafford on my blog. 

I have two gift ideas for you today, both perfect for any hair care or beauty lover, or just as a treat for yourself, it's ok to treat ourselves once in a while isn't it? Especially after the busy few weeks that is Christmas.

Lee Stafford 5 Piece Ultimate Hair Mask Collection - £10.00

There are 5 hair masks in the gift set, each mask is slightly different and they all smell different. They contain a selection of carefully selected ingredients that target specific hair needs. These masks are ideal as a gift for someone, but they are also nice to treat yourself too. The masks included in the gift set are: 

• Argan Oil Deep Nourishing Treatment Mask
• Choco Locks Butter Cream Treatment Mask
• Coco Loco Coconut Treatment Mask
• Hair Growth Treatment Mask
• Thirsty Hair Mucho Moisture Treatment Mask                             

The mask set is a great gift idea, it's always nice to treat ourselves to a pamper once in a while
and a hair mask is ideal for that, and who doesn't want great looking and feeling hair for Christmas.

Lee Stafford Bleach Blonde, Lifes Better Blonde Washbag Gift -£14.00

The lifes better blonde gift set is a great set, it contains 2 full sized products and I love how it comes with a wash bag, you can never have too many washbags right? I am already a lover of the Lee Stafford Ice White shampoo and Bleach Blondes conditioner so I knew I'd love this gift set. 

If you are blonde but don't have bleached hair, don't be put off by the name of the products, I don't have bleached hair, I do have it tinted but I don't have it bleached so if you are blonde but not bleached blonde, this set is still for you, the products tone and refresh blonde hair and leave it looking lovely, my hair, being blonde, isn't really shiny, but it is if I use these products. 

They are really great products and I have spoken about them on my blog previously and have many posts featuring Lee Stafford products also. This set is really good and if you bought the shampoo and conditioner without the bag, it would cost £13.98, so for just 2 pence, you're getting a wash bag, it's a win win and a great gift idea for the blondes in your life, or for yourself.


I really like both gift ideas and whether you want to buy them as a last minute gift for someone or you buy them for yourself, you won't regret it. 

If you are last minute shopping on the high street, you can find both gift sets in Boots and if you want to treat yourself but can wait, you can grab them on the Lee Stafford website. 

Have you tried any Lee Stafford products or tools? And if so, which is your favourite?

Palmers Coconut Oil Formula Haircare

This post is labelled AD - Gifted PR because I was kindly sent the products to review from the pr company. 

If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen my stories where I received a huge bag of products from Palmers. I was very excited when I opened the bag and found so many great products,  which included hair care products, body care products, hand cream and a multi purpose swivel stick, as shown in the photograph above, and I couldn't wait to try them all.  

I knew it would take me a while to try everything out, and I like to try things quite a few times before I share my thoughts with you, unless of course it's a first impressions type post. I have been using all the products since receiving them and today I am going to share my thoughts on the hair care products with you, I did think about writing a post on all the products but decided it would be far too long as I like to give an in depth review,  so I decided to split the products up. 

The haircare products I received are the Coconut Oil Conditioning Shampoo £4.19, the Coconut Oil Repairing Conditioner £4.19 and the Coconut Oil Leave In Conditioner £4.99. 

All three of the hair care products contain ethically and sustainably sourced coconut oil and Tahitian monoï oil and all three products are free from sulphates, parabens, phthalates, mineral oil, gluten or dyes. Palmers is a cruelty free company and does not conduct product tests on animals. 

Palmers Coconut Oil Conditioning Shampoo - £4.19

 Palmer's Coconut Oil Formla Coconut Oil Conditioning Shampoo is a rich, creamy shampoo, free of sulfates and harsh detergents, that gently cleanses and removes buildup without stripping hair or interrupting its delicate moisture balance.

I thought I'd give you a bit of a background on my hair type, but if you're a regular reader of my blog, you will be aware that I have very thin hair and my hair is also extremely oily, so oily that sometimes it can be washed in a morning and be looking oily by the evening, but if not it would definitely always oily the day after it has been washed. I also have my hair coloured using a tint, no bleach. 

Having blonde hair, I use a violet toned shampoo more often than not. After reading that the Palmers shampoo was suitable for dry, damaged and colour treated hair,  I worried it wouldn't be suitable for my hair because my hair is so oily. The first time I had my hair washed with the shampoo, I didn't try any of the conditioning products because I wanted to try them all separately and together for the purpose my review. 

The shampoo is in a large 400ml bottle with a flip top lid and is easy to open.

The shampoo smells incredible and has a lovely coconut scent, reminding me of summer and holidays. The shampoo lathered up well and rinsed out with ease, my hair is awful to brush through when it is wet, despite it being extremely thin, it resembles a birds nest and takes some brushing through. After having my hair washed with the Palmers shampoo, my hair didn't look so birds nest like and it did brush through a little easier than usual. 

Once brushed through, my hair was dried, no styling as such, just dried off the with hairdryer whilst being brushed through at the same time, I don't have a style, my hair is long and straight. My hair smelled beautiful after it had been dried and felt lovely and soft and looked healthy and shiny and my first impressions were excellent. 

Palmers Coconut Oil Repairing Conditioner - £4.19

Palmer's Coconut Oil Formula Coconut Oil Repairing Conditioner is a rich, creamy conditioner that instantly detangles and coats strands for silkier, shinier and easier to manage hair.

As with the shampoo, the conditioner smells lovely, it has the same scent as the shampoo. I don't use conditioner regularly because I find my hair gets very oily, very quickly, so I only use it once a month, and when I do use it, I have it applied only to the mid lengths and ends of my hair and never near my roots. 

The directions on the conditioner are to use after shampooing and to apply and leave to penetrate the hair for 3-5 minutes before rinsing, the first time I used the conditioner, I used it with the Palmers shampoo and it was left for around 3 minutes before rinsing. My hair was nice and easy to brush through once towel dried and when it had been dried with the hair dryer, it felt lovely and soft and silky and smelled beautiful and again, my first impressions were excellent. 

The conditioner has the same flip top lid as the shampoo and is easy to open and close. 

Palmers Coconut Oil Leave In Conditioner - £4.99

Palmer’s Coconut Oil Leave In Conditioner instantly detangles, putting an end to tugging and pulling. With a few sprays hair has instant slip and silkiness for easier comb-through and styling. Hair nourishing emollients fortify hair, control frizz, reduce split ends and give hair healthy-looking shine.

The leave in conditioner is so easy to use and sprays an even mist onto the hair, I find some sprays just squirt out randomly which is annoying but this doesn't it sprays a nice even mist of the conditioner. I use around 4 sprays of this after my hair has been towel dried. My hair as I said resembles a birds nest when it has been washed and towel dried and it is very hard to brush through, this makes it so much easier and my hair smells incredible,  and when it is wet and has been towel dried it brushes through with ease and my hair is left looking and feeling soft and sleek. 

My Overall Thoughts

I absolutely adore the Palmers Coconut Oil haircare range, all three products smell incredible and leave my hair looking lovely and shiny which is difficult with blonde hair,  and feeling soft and silky and smelling amazing. 

One of the best things I have found since using the products is that I noticed within the first couple of weeks of using the products was, that my hair doesn't get oily as quickly as it used to. To not have oily hair usually, I would have to have my hair washed every single day, sometimes it can be oily in the evening as it has been washed in a morning. At first I thought my hair might not be getting oily as fast because I'd been really poorly with a chest and kidney infection so hadn't had my hair washed for almost 2 weeks, which I know is absolutely gross, but I was just too poorly. 

I continued to use the shampoo and noticed that my hair can go days in between washing with just a small amount of dry shampoo and I can wear it down for that length of time too which is completely unheard of for me. I can literally get my hair washed on a Saturday, then not have to wash it until Wednesday and that NEVER happens. And if I didn't wash it on Wednesday, I could get away with dry shampoo and wearing my hair up until Saturday when it is washed again, meaning I can go a whole week without having my hair washed. This for me is completely unheard of, usually if my hair is washed on Saturday, it would look greasy at the crown on Sunday so would have to be dry shampooed and worn up, then washed on Monday. It's amazing that I can wear my hair down for days in a row, and not having to have my hair washed twice a week or more if needed is so much better for me body/health wise too. 

My favourite combination to use on my hair is the shampoo, followed by the leave in conditioner, it is a fantastic combination of products for my hair, my hair looks, smooth, sleek and shiny, smells amazing and looks great for days, around once a month I will use the repairing conditioner to give my hair a deeper condition. 

I have also used the leave in conditioner with my violet shampoo and it works brilliantly with that too and again I can go days without having my hair washed which is just brilliant for me. 

As with a lot of the products I review, my family also try the products for me so that I can give you another opinion on the products other than mine.  My eldest daughter has been using the products too, she has her hair bleached and has done for a while and as a result her hair is very dry, she absolutely loves  the products and has tried them all. After using them all and trying the shampoo with both the leave in conditioner and the repairing conditioner, she finds the shampoo and repairing conditioner are best for her hair and she said her hair looks and feels so much better when she uses them than with her regular hair products, she is very impressed and said she will continue to use the products. 

I love that the shampoo is 400ml, meaning it lasts really well,  and you don't need to use lots of the product, the 400ml bottle lasted brilliantly and since reviewing the products for my blog, I have since purchased the shampoo myself because I didn't want to run out. The leave in conditioner and repairing conditioner both still have some product left which is brilliant and shows that a little goes a long way. I use around 4 sprays of the leave in conditioner and a small amount of the repairing conditioner is enough, meaning the products last really well, I will be purchasing both the conditioners once they are running low. 

All in all, I am extremely impressed with all 3 of the products, my hair looks and feels so much better and the fact that I no longer suffer with oily hair is nothing short of a miracle, I am blown away that I have my hair washed once a week and it doesn't look oily in between, I have suffered with oily hair for around 22 years, so as you can imagine I am VERY happy that I no longer have oily hair. 

If you would like to try the Palmers Coconut Oil hair products, you can find them online and in store at Superdrug and Boots, or if you prefer, you can find the shampoo here - £4.19 the leave in conditioner here - £4.99 and the repairing conditioner here -£4.19 from the Superdrug website where they currently have a buy one, get the second half price offer, so a great time to try!
