Five great beauty products As a local business, I love to support other local businesses. The events of this year have forced many of us to change our shopping habits and this has seen an increase in online shopping. Even though I found myself shopping online I found that I could still keep it local. The Deepings have some fantastic online buys; I want to share with you my top fivesays Louise Sampson:
Hair Perfection By Casey This vegan-friendly haircare range was launched by Casey Kamau. She has over 15 years of hairdressing experience and has a passion for healthy hair and this is clear to see in her products. They are packed full of organic ingredients, brought to you in recycled packaging and free from any nasties including sulphates and parabens. What more could you want in a hair care range? The range includes various shampoos and conditioners as well as finishing products like ocean mist salt spray, ideal for those beachy wave curls! My favourite product is the Argan Oil Serum – it’s ideal to apply before a blow dry to smooth any frizz and enhance shine. Or for an extra boost, I love to apply this at bedtime and leave in overnight to really help moisturise my hair. Products start at £10.00 and can be bought at www.hairperfectionbycasey.com
Perdy’s Made With Love One thing you can never have too many of is hair bands and bobbles, and Perdy’s Made with Love definitely helps supply my stash! The aim behind Perdy’s was to source gorgeous fabrics and produce beautiful, high quality products that are affordable, and I would say that aim has definitely been met! Expect to see a lot of Liberty of London fabrics being used in the designs and an entire upcycled range creating sustainable hair accessories. My favourite product is the leopard print knotted head band; ideal to keep your hair out of your face on warm summer days and edgy enough to go with a variety of outfits. The final thing I love about Perdy’s is that they also make children’s hair accessories so you and your mini me could be twinning! Although I’ve focused on hair accessories, Perdy’s also offer a bespoke service, handmade earrings and Wilberry soft toys. Prices start from £5 and can be bought from www.perdys.co.uk
Freya Aromatics Self care is so important and sometimes we all need to hit that pause button and relax; Freya Aromatics have just the products to help you do that. They specialise in luxury soy blend candles, wax melts, room and linen sprays, hand washes and lotions. All of their products are hand poured in small batches with the utmost care and they use only the highest quality, eco-friendly ingredients.

I’ve been lucky enough to experience their new wax melts and I just can’t get enough of Black Iris and Musk; it smells divine, is long lasting and ideal for when I want to just relax. Freya Aromatics also offer a personalised service on all products, wedding favours, business promotion items and memorial & remembrance candles.
