Your Beauty First is moving in a new direction. Whilst I hope to maintain a personal touch, I am also looking to monetise my work, which will involve taking a professional approach to blogging. I am currently working to establish a variety of series (accessible...

John Frieda Precision Foam Colour (5B Medium Chocolate Brown) Review
What do you do when your hair begins to resemble hay? Whilst my hair did not feel like hay, it did appear dull and dry. I hate to admit it but natural hair has its cons! Your hair can be in the best condition and...
John Frieda Sheer Blonde Go Blonder Lightening Conditioner Review
I have grown rather fond of John Frieda. The brand never fails to deliver. Although a beautiful sight, lightened curls and the great responsibility of painstaking maintenance go hand in hand! If it is not the vibrancy in need of a boost, it is the...
Eco Style Black Castor & Flaxseed Oil Professional Styling Gel Review
Although my latest reviews reflect an obsession, I am simply intrigued, as the hype that surrounds Ecoco’s extensive range of gels is immense as well as contagious. Eco Style Black Castor & Flaxseed Oil Professional Styling Gel appears to be everyone’s favourite, a must have....
SunSense SPF50 Sport Gel Review
The arrival of summer is marked with a shopping spree. This year I was met with a compulsion to explore the sun care market; a sunscreen for my dark complexion was at the heart of my quest. Unfortunately (and unsurprisingly), my options were limited as...
Eco Styler Olive Oil Professional Styling Gel Review
Whilst exploring Ecoco’s extensive range of gels, I came across the brand’s Eco Style Coconut Professional Styling Gel. Relatively impressed with the coconut infused gel, I decided to try another, Eco Styler Olive Oil Professional Styling Gel. Incredibly affordable, I purchased the gel from Pak...
Janet Collection Brazilian Scent Lace Wig: RAY (Colour 2) Review
As I remain dedicated to protective styling, this will be the first of many wig reviews. If RAY performed as good as it looked, it would have been the ultimate wig, a perfect 10. Janet Collection is the brand behind RAY, a lace wig from...
Eco Style Coconut Professional Styling Gel Review
Gel is often used to define curls. I prefer custards or creams as such products are formulated to define as well as moisturise. I find gels drying, unable to tame my frizzy curls. Ecoco is the company behind Eco Styler (sometimes spelled Style) gels, a...
The Body Shop Tea Tree Skin Clearing Body Wash Review
I hate writing negative reviews. However, many have come to rely on reviews and if I can save someone time as well as money, delivering such negativity is worthwhile. Although I tend to love tea tree oil infused soaps, shower gels, etc., I was left...
Pantene Pro-V Colour Protect & Smooth Conditioner Review
Pantene is a household name. It is also a brand I tend to avoid. Buying into the hype, I decided to try a co-wash from Pantene’s range developed for afro/natural hair. To summarise hastily, it was a disappointing experience, not worthy of a review. However,...
Cantu Shea Butter Define and Shine Custard Review
Cantu’s Define and Shine Custard is simply the best! Words can’t express how pleased I am with this product. Purchased from Amazon (£5.49, 340g), Cantu’s Define and Shine Custard delivers everything promised and so much more. Free of sulfates, silicones, parabens and mineral oil, the...
Garnier Ultimate Blends The Marvellous Transformer Conditioner Review
Yes, I am reviewing another conditioner from Garnier's Ultimate Blends range. Infused with argan and camellia oil, Garnier’s Ultimate Blends The Marvellous Transformer Conditioner is a pleasant surprise! Prior to purchasing it from Amazon (£2.00, 400ml), I had never heard of camellia oil. According to...
