24.01.2022 Our Editor was impressed with Karindas sacred youth oil. Heres what she thought, "I am obsessed with using oil on my skin!

What did our Editor think? Find out below! "The Tints of Nature Hydrate Treatment is unassuming and surprisingly effective. It applies just like a conditioner right after you shampoo your hair so there is excessive wait time for its impact to be felt. I often straighten my hair and as a result my hair has exper...ienced some damage. After just one use of this treatment, my hair was visibly softer and shinier. The treatment leaves my hair bouncy, vibrant and glowing with good health. What I love the most about this product is the reassurance that Im putting only natural and organic ingredients on my scalp and hair."

She says, "Show your hair some tender loving care with Natios Nourishing Argan Oil Hair Treatment. This weightless blend of potent oils absorbed into my hair instantly and made it feel incredibly soft and healthy. After washing my hair, I just smoothed it through the mid-lengths and ends of my hair (not the roots) and let ...it dry naturally.

22.01.2022 The Ecostore is proudly holding the title for first place in the Hair Wash section of the awards with its Dry Damaged & Colour Shampoo. Our Editor loved this product and tells us, "Because I spend so much time in the surf, my hair is prone to sun damage and serious tangles. Luckily, ecostore Dry Damaged & Colour Shampoo exists to care for my hair naturally. The shampoo smells beautiful and works wonders in hydrating and restoring my dry and damaged hair. It lathers easily, ...which can often be hard to do when using natural haircare products. The same can be said about ecostores Dry Damaged & Colour Conditioner. This product nourishes and hydrates my hair and keeps my colour treatment fresh. The conditioner smells beautiful and is easy to comb through to remove any knots and tangles. What I love the most, however, is that these hair care products are a safer option for the planet. By choosing ecostore products, I avoid adding any more nasty chemicals into our waterways and oceans. The surfer in me loves that about ecostore!"

19.01.2022 Based on the traditional Transylvanian stew, this recipe swaps out the meat and adds smoked tofu. The cashew sour cream creates a delicious stew that coats the vegetables with a bounty of flavour.
18.01.2022 For the past year, EatWell chef Jacqueline has been on a plant-based baking journey. Replacing eggs with linseed or chia eggs, butter with olive, coconut or macadamia oil or nut butters, and looking at ways to ensure there is a balance of essential nutrients from plants that we would traditionally find in non-plant sources too. It’s been a year of delicious afternoon teas including this recipe for vegan carrot cake and no doubt many more to come in the year ahead too!
17.01.2022 Heres a beautiful product in our newcomers category to watch out for. Ecostores sleepytime bath was loved by our Editor and here ar her thoughts. "My cousin came over with her two-month-old girl, Isla, for a weekend of pampering (for Isla, not us). Each and every ecostore product we used on little Isla was like magic. My cousin noted that the products were of much higher quality than some of the other products she had used on her daughter. The ecostore Sleepytime Bath was... a strong favourite. Its a beautiful tonic that you pour into the warm bathwater. When do you, it releases the amazing aromas that work well in promoting sleep. Isla was so calm after her bath and went straight to sleep (this rarely happens for Isla, so it was quite a magical moment). Islas mum even said she would go out and buy it again purely for its sleep-inducing power! This is a must-have for parents with fussy sleepers."

17.01.2022 It hardly seems possible to have a no-sugar healthy ice-cream that tastes so amazingly sweet and almost like the dairy and sugar-laden original. With this recipe, we have swapped out the cream and used frozen bananas instead to get this spectacular cold creaminess which is completely wholefood plant-based. http://ow.ly/OwYs50BqN5F
16.01.2022 Adorn Cosmetics Anti-Ageing SPF 20+ Mineral Foundation was a winner in the Products to Watch category of our BE-YOU-T Awards and our Editor was very happy with her results. Here are her thoughts: "Do you want a foundation that provides a glowing, dewy complexion while remaining dry with a velvet-like finish? Look no further than the Adorn Anti-Aging loose mineral foundation. Not only does this foundation have the added benefit of minerals and SPF 20+ (UVA and UVB protection,... thank you very much), it is also full coverage even though it is a super-lightweight formulation. As this product is a loose powder you dont want to apply it too liberally. What I did each morning was dip a kabuki brush (a powder brush will work just as well) into the pot and tap off the excess before buffing in circular motions over my whole face. This powder has a beautiful shimmer to it and I loved how it left my skin with a soft glow." Find all our winners here http://ow.ly/ieYJ50BmwmD #WellBeingBeYouTAwards #BeYouTAwards
15.01.2022 It was a tough decision when picking a winner in the fragrance category of our BE-YOU-T Awards, but heres our pick with Dindi Naturals desert wood natural perfume! Heres the review: "Since choosing to live a natural, toxin-free life, my senses have really started to refine themselves.

15.01.2022 EatWell chef Jacqueline has remade this traditional sweet of New Zealand with all plant-based ingredients, and given it a real hit of ginger to stimulate circulation and warm the body. It’s the perfect afternoon tea treat with edge for the cooler months of the year.
14.01.2022 When we have existential threats around us, it’s easy to be pulled into a panic spiral, and the danger is that saving the planet never feels like a concrete thing we can actually achieve. But as with all the best advice, it comes down to micro-actions. As we move forward trying to influence government at all levels, school principals, CEOs and sports associations, we have to remember that we don’t need to wait another day to create a huge amount of influence within our own homes and as a collective. One of the ways we can do that in the most practical terms is to cut the amount of stuff we buy in packaging, and buy basic ingredients in reusable bags and jars from home. It might seem trivial, but we can assure you it’s huge.
14.01.2022 Try these natural beauty tips and foods to reduce dry hair, skin and nails throughout the cooler months.
14.01.2022 The One Seed organic perfumery have a Cologne in Solitude and its our winner for the Mens category! Our Editor says, "While this product is marketed to those who wear cologne, it could also be considered a genderless scent. The One Seed Organic Cologne in Solitude is earthy, spicy and instantly pricks up the senses. The colognes main notes are black pepper, dry woods, tarragon and vanilla and, although its strong, its also bright and fresh. The One Seed packaging is ethe...real; each fragrance contains quote from a famous poet on its bottle. This fragrance is a beautiful object in its own right, but the scent inside promises an uplifting, rich and tantalizing experience for anyone who chooses to wear it."

13.01.2022 Did you know that Hungarian goulash is the most famous and often-cooked dish outside the borders of Hungary? It is eaten as a main dish and is considered to be more of a soup than a stew. If cooked in the proper way, goulash has a nice and evenly thick consistency, almost like a sauce.
13.01.2022 This recipe is a great one to cook with kids they love getting their hands into it. If they don’t love cinnamon that’s okay; just remove the topping and let them pop some honey or butter on top when it comes out of the oven instead.

06.01.2022 There are some products that just deliver on their promises one of them is Ampernas Pro+ Resurfacing Lotion. It won the Products to watch category effortlessly! Our Editor said, "I am obsessed with exfoliation. By that, I mean chemical exfoliation in the form of AHA (alpha-hydroxy acids) and BHA (beta-hydroxy acids). AHAs break down the glue between dead skin cells, leaving you with a glowing, smooth complexion. Luckily for me, the AMPERNA Pro+ Resurfacing Lotion contains... the AHA, glycolic acid (at a pretty generous dosage of 10 per cent) to gently resurface the top layer of the skin. What sets this formula apart is that has been specifically formulated for even the most sensitive skin so is perfect for first-time exfoliators. It also contains antioxidants and AMPERNAs signature probiotic complex to calm redness and act as a protective barrier on the skin. This product is designed to be left on, so dont wash it off after applying. After cleansing I gently patted the lotion onto my face, neck and dcolletage and followed soon after with a moisturiser. Keep in mind that using AHA and BHA ingredients can make you more sensitive to the sun, so always, always, always wear SPF the following day."

06.01.2022 We live in a busy and fast-paced world and are juggling far more day-to-day than ever before.

Supporting your nervous system is therefore fundamental for vibrant health, happiness and longevity.
