Naturals Beauty introduces their R&R Kids Range and we tried the conditioner

R&R Range - Ruben is a little boy whose body is very sensitive to toxins and toxin build up. Rebekah is a baby whose skin is sensitive to synthetic fragrances and other nasties! Their mommy has created this range for them and for kids just like them.

Naturals Beauty launched their R&R Baby Range just over 2 years ago and the range has been very successful. Now they have added a Bum Balm to the baby range and they recently launched a much anticipated R&R Kids Range. The Kids Range comprises of a Shampoo & Body Wash, Conditioner and Bubble Bath.

All 3 products are enriched with Rooibos leaf extract and there are other amazing extracts like Calendula, Chamomile and Aloe Leaf used in the products. The 100% natural formulations also make use of Wheat germ oil and Jojoba seed oil to moisturise and condition the hair and skin.

Naturals Beauty was kind enough to send Cara a R&R Kids Conditioner to try and we are loving it. It can be used as a ‘normal’ conditioner to be rinsed after application or it can be used as a leave-in conditioner. We prefer to leave it in as Cara has very dry hair. The product helps to easily detangle her hair, leaving it soft and manageable and her curls are full of bounce and super shiny. (PS My curls love it too). The cute pump bottle retails for R74. Two thumbs up!

I am very keen to try the other two products in the Kids Range as well. Because all R&R products are allergen-free, paraben-free, sls-free, sulphate-free, soap-free, petroleum-free, phthalate-free and mineral oil-free (phew! That’s a mouthful) I am sure that we have also finally discovered a bubble bath that will not irritate Cara’s sensitive, eczema-prone skin. Girls need bubbles! I will let you know as soon as we give it a go.

In the pics you will also see the gorgeous Hemp R&R Kids and Baby Bags that launched over the weekend. Gorgeous, aren’t they?

After trying out the conditioner (and my previous experience with Naturals Beauty) I can say with 100% certainty that you can’t go wrong with any of their products. This brand gives you quality products at great prices and you can be assured that you are using only the best on your child’s skin and hair. This truly is a brand that cares.

Lift your spirits ‘Beyond the Blue’ at Africa’s biggest kite festival. The 20th Cape Town International Kite Festival, proudly hosted by Cape Mental Health, will take place in Muizenberg on 1 & 2 November 2014. With kiters coming from as far afield as Germany, New Zealand and Singapore festival-goers can expect to see some amazing kite creations, including Toothless from ‘How to Train Your Dragon’ making his first African flight. 

Local kite-makers have a chance to win prizes in the Heritage Kite Competition. The Heritage Kite Award will go to the best ‘Swaeltjie’, a traditional swallow-shaped kite that came to Africa from South-East Asia hundreds of years ago. People can also learn how to make a Swaeltjie at free workshops during the festival, run by master kite-maker Ebrahim Sambo from Athlone. Sambo has been making Swaeltjie kites since he was a child. “My great-grandfather was a slave from Indonesia; he taught my grandfather, who taught my father, who taught me.”

The Cape Town International Kite Festival happens on (and above) the lawns of Zandvlei Nature Reserve, Muizenberg (corner Axminster and The Row), from 10:00 to 18:00 daily. Entry is R30 or R10 for children 12 years and under. With on-stage entertainment, yummy food stalls and an eclectic market, it’s healthy family fun in support of a very good cause.
