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.

TanOrganic Self Tanning Oil Review

I posted about this tanning oil a couple of weeks ago as I had a little sample to try out and it blew me away. I was very happy with the results as this is the first self-tanning product that I have found that I do not have a terrible reaction to. My eczema does not like the chemicals in self-tan. Have a look at my previous post HERE to learn more about this organic self-tanning brand and why my skin is so happy with it.

The fabulous people from TanOrganic then sent me a full size Tanning Oil!!

R599… and worth every cent.

I usually struggle with my eczema as soon as the weather becomes warmer as my flare-ups are more frequent in summer. This weekend I decided to bite the bullet and try it even though my skin is not 100% clear. Please note that I do not have weaping or infected eczema. I would not recommend any type of cosmetic product in those severe cases! My skin just tends to get very itchy, red and extremely dry.

The instructions say to apply the product to cleansed and moisturised skin. I did a head to toe exfoliation and then applied Lipidol’s After Shower Oil. I gave that a while to completely absorb and then I used my hands to work in the tanning oil. It was super quick and simple. Because it’s an oil, I found it very easy to spread the product evenly. I just made sure to apply a little less on the areas that tend to be a bit drier and where self-tan tends to easily ‘show’… elbows, ankles, knees, etc. I love that there is no need for a tanning mitt and that, after a quick wash, there is no evidence of a self-tan application left on my hands. The oil didn’t take very long to absorb and left my skin feeling beautifully moisturised. I got dressed almost immediately afterwards, and I haven’t noticed any marks on my clothing. I mentioned in my previous post that there was no typical self-tan smell… unfortunately that is not completely true. Because I applied self-tan all over my body this time (not gutsy enough to try self-tan on my face yet), I could detect a feint scent. Not overwhelming, but it is there.

After about 6 hours I had some colour! Yay. The change wasn’t dramatic, but my skin looked healthy and glowing. And I was not Jersey Shore orange! My mom popped in last night and commented on my beautiful tan. She was surprised that it came out of a bottle as it really does look natural.

I also love that the tan is buildable and I can reapply after 3 – 4 days.

AND… yet again… no reaction! Just soft, smooth, tanned skin.

This product gets 2 thumbs up!! Thank you TanOrganic.
