It’s summer time so why not hyper- colourise (is that a word? lol) your accessories.
On one of my web surfing expeditions, I came across a brazillian company that designs the most beautiful and colourful resin jewellery I’ve seen. Each piece of jewellery is handmade and each piece is unique.
The company is called Jackie Brazil. Have a look at their web site for more lovely pieces to complement your summer wardrobe.
I know you’re all wondering what on earth is Lawsonia Inermis? Well it’s the Latin name for good old Henna.
The use of Henna is nothing new in the beauty industry. In fact it has been used for hundreds of years both as a base in make-up pigment and in hair colouring. I recently came across a brand of semi-permanent lip liners/lip colours made from henna and I must say I quite like them.
The ingredients are all 100% natural so that’s another bonus. The pens have two tips; a finer one to line the lips and a larger one to fill in the lips.
Henna Pens also do a Henna Eyebrow pen. Visit www.hennapens.com or nonstopbazaar.com for more info.

Here at efluential we’re fans of bamboo. This time not clothes made from bamboo, but hair combs.
Bamboo Hair Combs and also Wooden Hair Combs are said to be kinder to the hair than plastic combs. So I decided to give the Bamboo Hair Comb a try.
I purchased my comb from a company called Roots 2 Ends (yep the same company that manufactures the skin saving body butter mentioned in my previous blog ‘butter your skin’) and I must say the comb glides smoothly through my hair and it’s a very lovely, hand crafted comb.
Visit the site www.r2e.co.uk to have a look at their other combs.
I’ve been looking for a lovely rich body butter that actually softens the skin and nourishes it, and I’ve found it. It’s made by an UK based company called Roots 2 Ends.
What’s also fab about this product, is that it’s free from artificial fragrances, preservatives and petrochemicals.
Well worth a try-visit www.r2e.co.uk for more info.
