Good Gracious Haircare

Meet Good Gracious, a newly launched haircare brand that is sold on the highstreet. Made up of three different ranges, Good Gracious is made from 97% natural ingredients, is vegan friendly, not tested on animals, free from parabens, petrochemicals, silicone and mineral oils and is priced around £5!

The range from Good Gracious comprises 7 different lines including

• 3 x shampoo – Smooth & Hydrate, Intense Repair, Colour Care
• 3 x conditioner – Smooth & Hydrate, Intense Repair, Colour Care
• 1 x Crown of Glory Hair Mask

I was kindly sent the Good Gracious Smooth & Hydrate Shampoo and Conditioner to try but, if you go over to my Instagram account, there is a competition giving you the chance to win one of each of their 7 products.

So what are the products

Starting with the Good Gracious Crown of Glory Repair Mask - Enriched with Coconut Oil, this mask is described a being the Queen of hair masks and the one you need when your hair is in need of some TLC. Designed to deeply nourish and repair dry, damaged hair, this mask will leave your hair feeling fabulously smooth, soft and super-shiny. In other words, fit for royalty. £6.50 (300ml).

From here the shampoo and Conditioner sets can be spotted due to their colour pairings of Pink, Purple and Orange.

Starting with Pink we have the Good Gracious Colour Care Shampoo and Good Gracious Colour Care Conditioner both 400ml and 25oml respectively and £5 each.

 

The is clearly the range you need to enhance your hair colour and again, infused with Coconut Oil, Vitamins C and E and green tea, not only will this duo work to enhance and protect colour but also to give you that radiant, glamorous and glossy finish.

Up next we have Orange and this time it is the Good Gracious Intense Repair Shampoo and Good Gracious Intense Repair Conditioner  and again both 400ml and 25oml respectively and £5 each.

Described as being the duo to give your hair its mojo back as well as a new lease of life, this intense repair range is infused with Argan Oil, Sweet Almond Oil and Almond Milk for deep hydration. Perfect for hair that is dry, damaged and brittle, this duo is said to give you feel-good hair all day long.

Then finally we have the Purple Ones which are the ones I have been using Good Gracious Smooth & Hydrate Shampoo and Good Gracious Smooth & Hydrate Conditioner.

Smelling absolutely delightful, this duo is said to be the one that helps you to say goodbye to sad, dry and thirsty hair and instead to say hello to happy, shiny hair. Infused with Shea Butter, Omega oils and Ceramides, the shampoo for this duo is lightweight and lathers like a dream, it doesn't leave you hair feeling lank or in need of a further wash and it doesn't dry out my scalp, the conditioner is slightly thicker, so a little goes a long way and it also doesn't leave my hair feeling as though I haven't washed it.  After rinsing out, my hair is soft and easy to comb through with no knots or tangles and the scent, it is divine.  As someone who loves discovering new hair care, at these prices, it is worth heading to Tesco to grab them quick!

Again with this range the Shampoo at 400ml is just £5.00 and the Conditioner is 250ml and £5.00.

The range is currently available in-store and online at Tesco.

L'Occitane Artichoke Range

A range I would never expect to have loved as much as I do is the L'Occitane Artichoke Range. Consisting of two products - Massage Cream and Exfoliating Body Scrub they are exceptional in every way.

Starting with the Artichoke Exfoliating Body Scrub (£42/200ml) it is described as being an expert body scrub which works to improve the appearance of cellulite, skin’s firmness and relieve water retention swelling.

With its jelly-like texture, the Artichoke Body Scrub does something I was not expecting it to do, it warms on contact with the skin to give that little extra something. On the skin when massaged, the scrub polishes away those dead and dry skin cells along with any impurities and whilst it is not overly abrasive, it does an incredible job.

This scrub is enriched with Artichoke extract which is known to help blood circulation and anti-cellulite Centella Asiatica extract, micro-circulation is enhanced to visibly improve the appearance of cellulite, skin’s elasticity and tonicity whilst also relieving the swelling sensations due to water retention.

Then we have the Artichoke Massage Cream (£49/200ml) and it is described as being an expert body moisturiser that improves skin texture and skin’s firmness.

This Massage Cream is a moisturiser which works to firms-up the skin whilst at the same time helping to reduce cellulite aspect and when it is combined with a massage it also helps reduces swollen and heavy leg sensation.

On the skin, the cream has a refreshing feel to it as its lightweight texture melts into the skin to leave it feeling moisturised and hydrated for up to 8 hours. Once again, powered with micro-circulation booster Artichoke extract, not only does it sublimates body contours, restores firmness and elasticity to the skin and helps to reduce the appearance of cellulite.

As both products use Artichoke extract, an ingredient that is raved about for its ability to improve skin tone and elasticity as well as to soothe and calm irritated skin.  For me, I have an issue with water retention in my legs, so to actually notice a difference from continuous use of a product is quite remarkable, especially around my ankles when one is always swollen due to an old injury.  When a sandal strap was once too tight, it now fits and isn't uncomfortable and nor does it rub, so for that reason alone, I have ensured I have another jar of each pot in my bathroom cupboard.

L'Occitane is to launch Beauty Advent Calendars this year and all the details can be found right here.
