PRODUCTS REVIEW - MONPURE LONDON

1. STRENGTHENING SILK PROTEIN SHAMPOO 200ml

💡DETAILS: Strengthening Silk Protein Shampoo effectively lifts away dirt and debris without stripping the scalp and hair of moisture. Vegan silk peptides create a breathable ‘second skin’ on both the scalp and hair, protecting (by more than 35%) against the effects of pollution, irritants and bacteria, all of which are known to compromise hair colour.

✳️INFO: If you tend to shy away from shampoo for fear of a dry scalp and frizzy strands, Strengthening Silk Protein Shampoo is the refreshing antidote to everything that has gone before. It may not foam as much as other varieties, but this means it won’t leave hair dry and brittle either. Its star ingredients include coconut-derived cleansing agents that are of 100% natural origin, together with hydrating aloe vera and strengthening vegan silk peptides. aloe vera, as well as keratin to help fortify frail strands, while special vegan silk peptides strengthen and nourish both the hair and scalp. Not only does it fill your bathroom with a happy herbal fragrance (as opposed to your typical floral fug) it gives hair body and bounce, without feeling weighed down. Also free from parabens and sulphates. They recommend using their Strengthening Essence-Conditioner straight afterwards for an extra moisture boost.

✅RATING: 10/10
🔴MY REVIEW: The shampoo works very well. Great product for damaged hair. Left my hair feeling shiny, soft and manageable. Loved the ingredients and how clean and natural it is. Definitely recommend.

2. STRENGTHENING ESSENCE-CONDITIONER 200ml

💡DETAILS: Strengthening Essence-Conditioner is an ultra-lightweight conditioning ‘essence’ to soothe and hydrate the scalp-skin and strands, locking in moisture without feeling greasy or weighing the hair down.

✳️INFO: If you thought conditioner was just meant for the ends of your hair and not your scalp, Strengthening Essence-Conditioner will make you think again. Turning the traditional idea of conditioner on its head (pun intended) they called this an ‘essence-conditioner’ because of its unique lightweight texture – similar to a skincare ‘essence’ inspired by K-beauty regimes. It treats and nourishes the scalp-skin and strands, without feeling heavy or leaving the hair looking flat. (Also if you’ve just used the Nourish and Stimulate Scalp Mask, this is the perfect follow-on product to boost its scalp-loving effects.) Perfect for all hair types – especially fine and flyaway hair - it contains strengthening vegan silk peptides, while argan oil and pro vitamin B5 deliver a moisturising double-act to leave the scalp and hair supremely nourished.

✅RATING: 10/10
🔴MY REVIEW: My hair is baby fine and tangles easily. It’s great helping with my comb out and detangling. After using this essence conditioner I noticed that my hair is shinier, healthier, has less fly-aways and is more manageable. It’s quite expensive than many other brands but they so deliver on what they promise their product will do for your hair. I definitely recommend this product.

3. NOURISH AND STIMULATE SCALP MASK 120g

💡DETAILS: Nourish and Stimulate Scalp Mask works to improve scalp health by ‘feeding’ hair follicles and skin cells with essential vitamins and nutrients, creating the optimum environment for hair growth. Invigorates an itchy scalp and relieves redness, discomfort and sun damage.

✳️INFO: If your scalp is feeling particularly under the weather, Nourish and Stimulate Scalp Mask is the ultimate scalpcare SOS weekly treatment that should be adorning every bathroom shelf. Simply massage this fluffy cloud-light formula through your roots, onto your scalp and any stress and discomfort should be a thing of the past (you should start to feel it tingle – that’s the best bit). There are two ways of using it: either leave on for 15 minutes as a deep treatment before going into the shower; or use in the shower after shampooing – massage into the scalp and let it work for 10 minutes before washing out. Not only does it work to improve scalp health so hair can grow stronger, better and healthier with regular use, but it also soothes, hydrates and relieves itchiness with aloe vera and vitamin-rich camellia tea oil. Lastly, your scalp and hair will be left with extra ‘oomph’ thanks to strengthening vegan silk peptides. They recommend using their Strengthening Essence-Conditioner straight afterwards for an extra moisture boost.

✅RATING: 10/10
🔴MY REVIEW: I have used this scalp mask several times and I definitely recommend this. After the first use, my hair was noticeably softer without being weighed down or greasy. Well, my hair has been colored every month and this has really helped decrease the frizz and keep its soft, silky and straight. To be honest, I enjoy their products.

4. HYDRATE AND SOOTHE SCALP SERUM 50ml

💡DETAILS: Hydrate and Soothe Scalp Serum is an intense, anti-inflammatory solution for quenching very dry, irritated scalp-skin, as well as soothing rough patches. Can help calm symptoms of redness, acne, eczema, sun damage and general stress on the scalp.

✳️INFO: You may have an entire shelf of serums for your face, but what about your scalp? Hydrate and Soothe Scalp Serum was created to give dry, irritated scalps some much-needed care and attention. This calming concoction features redness-reducing witch hazel, protective Pro Vitamin B5 and allantoin - a renowned humectant, which draws and retains moisture like a sponge. Gently massage in a few drops into your roots morning and night to soothe stressed scalp-skin and deliver a good dose of moisture in the process – over time you should see an improvement in scalp health too. Used sparingly (a little goes a long way), the lightweight yet hardworking formula won’t weigh hair down. Free from sulphates, silicones and parabens.

✅RATING: 10/10
🔴MY REVIEW: I have been using this for a month now, it keeps my hair free from dandruff. Well, this scalp serum was perfect for my scalp. I have eczema so the itching is crazy at times. It soothes my scalp and does not make it too oily. Easy to apply and it has absolutely saved my life. Highly recommend.

5. FOLLICLE BOOST HAIR DENSITY SERUM 50ml

💡DETAILS: The ‘hero serum’ that started it all, Follicle Boost Hair Density Serum works to stimulate the scalp, improve cell turnover and prevent hair loss and thinning.

✳️INFO: A true labour of love, this has been meticulously developed by their team of scientists, dermatologists and beauty experts and formulated to perfection in their German laboratories. Here’s how it works: special pumpkin seed extract and castor oil work to stimulate the scalp, with the former having been scientifically proven to help block an enzyme called 5-alpha reductase, which has been shown to produce a chemical called DHT from testosterone, which causes hair loss. Meanwhile, exfoliating retinol and lactic acid work to improve cell turnover and remove dead skin and debris that often inhibit hair growth. Gently massage a few drops onto the scalp every morning, as part of your daily skincare routine.

✅RATING: 10/10
🔴MY REVIEW: After using this for a month, I have noticed how soft and stronger my hair is at the ends. My edges are beginning to show signs of growth. It’s very lightweight and absorbs easily. Overall, I’m finding my hair stronger, thicker and more healthier with increasing hair growth all the time. Very happy that it works so well. I definitely will continue to use.

Are you ready for the motherload?

WE ARE ON DAY 18 of self-quarantine and still really like each other! Here are some of our favorite play ideas that we've loved doing as a family and independently.

WE GOT THIS, MAMAS!!!

***
SENSORY
***
Oobleck (cornstarch + water)
Playdough (recipe saved under my highlights on ig @rachealkwacz)
Simple dough (flour + water)
Slime (recipe on ig!)
Organic slime (psyllium husk + water heated up)
Ice (add water, add salt, add food coloring, freeze it w a toy inside, the list is endless!)
Baths (bubbles, bath bombs, "swimming", use your sand toys, kitchen tools, etc)
Sily putty
Blutak
Clay
Mud (soil and water)
Clean mud (shredded paper + soap shavings + water)
Shredded paper
Newspaper
Jello
Rice
Barley
Beans
Lentils
Shaving cream
Sand
Salt

*Food sources are a precious commodity at the moment (we haven't been to a grocery store!) so we've really been conserving all our dry goods for however long we might need to quarantine for which means we're really rotating between just a few things (water, soil, slime, etc) so don't worry about having to come out with something new everyday. They are honestly happy to play with the same medium, it allows them to come out with different creations and explore deeper!

***
MOVE
***
Dance party
Yoga
Zumba
Stretch
Hide and seek

Obstacle course
Balls
Balance board
Bubbles
Jump rope
Bicycle

ARTS & CRAFTS
***
Coloring - there are a ton of cool printables including a very fun one from sereni & shentel
Paint
Paper mache - glue w paste made from cooked flour and water
Markers
Cards
Stickers
Glue
Cutting
Different textures of paper
Cardboard painting

Honestly, Ella Grace has a little art table so she really just leads this. We just make the materials available for her and she comes out with some gems! My best advice however is for painting or anything that's "messy", let them paint in the shower! We strip her down, she paints on the glass to her heart's content, the clean up and hosing it down is part of the fun then a shower after! No stains on clothes, no worrying about wet paint or where to hang all the artwork later and best of all, minimal clean-up!

***
ROLE PLAY
***
The sky is the limit on this one and honestly, the world (or anything she can find within our four walls) is her oyster
Dress-up
Costume jewelry
Blanket - she has a soft bamboo muslin wrap from when she was little that she uses for everything. It's probably her most used toy in the house she plays w it so much - cape, hat, skirt, scarf, etc
Forts - use flat sheets or blankets and pillows and see what you can build with what you have!
Cardboard - build a robot suit or an entire landscape!
Restaurant - there's an instruction leaflet from a game that Ella Grace likes to use as a "menu" which again goes back to…use your imagination! You don't have to have a "kitchen" to play cooking!
Salon - hair, facials, manis, pedis, even daddy gets to have a go!
Construction - one of our favorite things to do is just build. We recycle old egg cartons, boxes, packaging materal, magnatiles - Bueno Blocks has an incredible selection of open-ended toys!
Real life - honestly this the best and total win-win! She helps me cook, cut, prep, mop, sweep, vaccuum, make beds, wipe, clean, etc and is actually a really big help!!

***
ETC
***
Reading (she does a lot of this both independently and together as a family)
Writing/activity books - this is really optional. Our ethos is play is learning and learning has to come from within so we don't push "school" at all. She has a bunch of workbooks gifted from various places that she likes to take out and work on whenever and we just allow it to be part of free play and because it's not a "chore" she loves it
Pretend cooking show!!
Podcasts (refer to previous post for our extensive list of favorites!)
TV time - she has set tv time while I make dinner and her favorite programs are Hi-5, The Wiggles, Fireman Sam, Paw Patrol! We also do movie night once a week and it includes snacks and lots of cuddling!
Gardening - grow a little patio/balcony garden. We planted some cilantro roots and sprouted onions!!
Friendship bracelets
Make a jumprope!
Learn a new language or skill
Picnic on your balcony if you have one or a pretend picnic in your living room!
Balls - seriously, there are so many things you can do w ball! Ella Grace had an entire afternoon of fun and made-up games by herself with just a little wooden ball and basket.

Mostly, just remember this. It's okay if they get bored. In fact, allow them to be. Remember the ball and the basket story? She had so much fun because we've actively allowed her to just explore, be creative, be bored, use her imagination, and not micromanage or set up all her play for her. The key to surviving and even thriving(!) isn't to plan out every second of their day, the key to surviving MCO is to trust her and allow room for adventure and fun. Be flexible. Freedom within boundaries, mama.

The only way through is to do it together and sometimes that means having her play by herself while I work and the other times, it means really checking in, being present, and playing along with her!

That's the secret.❤

Share the love with your mama tribe! xx
