O’Right Dandelion Sensitive Shampoo

Posted on by

O’Right Dandelion Sensitive Shampoo is the newest product from the world’s greenest cosmetics company O’Right. Dandelion sensitive shampoo is available now from Harvey Nichols RRP £18.25 for 400ml, and is made from 98% natural ingredients, even the bottle is eco-friendly!

I was intrigued to find out more about O’Right as the boy is quite passionate about being eco-friendly something he has learnt at school. When I told him about a shampoo bottle that not only was eco-friendly, but also makes bottles that grow into a tree, he told me I was being silly!

O’Right have thought of everything from the soy based ink, certified paper and the unique biodegradable bottle with embedded seeds. Which with the right conditions will decompose in a year and be replaced with a beautiful Acacia tree. Add to this that the shampoo itself is free from Parabens, colorants and other harmful chemicals and you must have a winning product?

But at the end of the day the product has to work, so the boy has been testing out O’Right’s Dandelion Sensitive Shampoo. The first thing we liked was the shape of the bottle, the boy said “its like the bottles pirates have!” I think he means rum bottles, and he is right it is a tall elegant necked bottle. We both love the bamboo lid, this has a unique beauty of its own, and I know the boy wont let me throw it away, as it is very tactile. The shampoo itself has a lovely smell sort of herby, and green and to my surprise lathered up very well. I have found in the past that other synthetic free products don’t lather well and you end up using more to get the job done. But not with this O’Right Dandelion Shampoo, which lathered up easily and cleaned in one wash.

The boy has been using the O’Right Dandelion Sensitive shampoo for a week now, and we are both happy. The boy has lovely clean hair which looks nice, and he is happy as he is helping the environment, and doesn’t have to wash his hair twice.  While some of the other bottles in the range have the seeds, the Dandilion Shampoo dosent so we will have to wait to have a go at planting a bottle.

O’Right have a great range of green hair care products so why not visit their website, Facebook page or chat to them on twitter, to find out more about their green credentials.

As long as you put in efforts, you can turn ordinary into extraordinary. O’right firmly holds the belief that we must always treat the environment well. This is the core value of ‘It’s O’right. We believe that actions speak louder than words, and that immediate actions shout even louder. Because of this we have long rejected the use of raw materials that will cause environmental pollution and harmful effects to people’s health.

miamoo Travel Goodies

I was excited when miamoo offered to send me their travel goodies to try out, as its only 141 days till we leave for our holiday, and the miamoo travel goodies are perfectly sized to fit in your hand luggage. The Travel pack contains everything that you might need for mum’s and babies with 30ml of each product, splashy wash, fresh locks shampoo, huggy lotion, cheeky cream, spritz and wipe, and baba oil. The pack of  miamoo travel goodies also comes in a handy plastic travel purse and has a lovely cotton flannel.

The first thing I noticed was that all the miamoo products are Paraben and free from other petrochemicals, which means that the boy can use them. The miamoo products are especially kind to children’s and babies who suffer from dry or sensitive skin like the boy.  The first product we tried was the miamoo fresh locks shampoo. It has a lovely lavender smell to it, and is not to overpowering, and I could tell that the boy was clean when he came out of the bathroom as his hair smelt lovely and looked shiny too.

The miamoo splashy wash has a lovely lemon scent which I thought was very pleasant and is a favourite smell of mine. I gave this product a try and it was very refreshing, but without feeling that it had stripped all the oil from my skin it felt very soft afterwards. The boy found that it was easy and gentle on his skin too.

The miamoo cheeky cream as its name might suggest could be used for babies cheeks, but as I don’t have a baby to test on, I tried the cream out on my face. With a very pleasing smell, it wasn’t greasy, this cream made my skin feel very soft, and was also easy to use as a hand cream. Perfect for when I forget to take one on the plane with me which I always do!

There are also 3 spray bottles in the miamoo travel pack, spritz and wipe with lime and minerals, which would be great for freshening up after a days travel. This had a very subtle smell and would be great to keep in my handbag for cleaning sticky fingers.

The huggy lotion has to be my favourite from the pack, as it was easy to apply and made my skin feel soft, with almond and marshmallow extracts it makes a perfect all over moisturiser. It is also very easy to use from the pump bottle.

Finally baba oil, and this is something I don’t have much call for now the boy is older, but it is always handy to have. I will use baby oil removing paint from hands, and even tree sap, from when the boy has been helping dad to move the logs. With lavender and almond oil it had a lovely smell, but is not something I would necessarily take on holiday with me.

I was impressed with the quality of the miamoo products, and think the handy sizes are a great way to find your favourites, or even give as a gift for a new mum. You can buy miamoo products from their website and the travel pack has an RRP of £15.00, which for this type of product is very reasonable. The full-sized products start from £5.00 which again is very comparable for Paraben and petrochemical free products. Delivery is free for orders over £50.
