ALMOND + OLIVE OIL HAIR MASK

  1. almonds- high magnesium which is vital for growing healthy hair
  2. Greek yoghurt - high in protein (the whey) + adds shine and softness to hair
  3. oats - high in potassium, phosphorus, magnesium and iron.
  4. coconut oil- coconut oil is high in vitamin E, antioxidants, fat and is absorbed by your hair strands. 
  5. olive oil - keeps hair nourished and conditioned.
  6. Jamaican black castor oil - moisturises, speeds growth, high in nutrients and it works specifically on the hair roots.
  7. avocado - as natures butter it is a great conditioner that softens and adds moisture to dry hair.
  8. mint leaves - the essential oil in the leaves increases blood flow therefore promoting growth.
  9. Aussie 3 minute reconstructor
  10. pure glycerin - a great humectant
  11. milk - high in protein and nutrients.
Blend it all together till it's a smooth paste (add more milk if it's too thick or oats if it's too thin). Apply to hair a section at a time, making sure you massage it into scalp and at the ends. Cover with a shower cap for as long as you want. Then rinse and co-wash hair - the voila shiny hair. About the to wash my hair, will post the results in a little while.

Models that eat?

Models eat? huh? Well as a foodie my food bloglist is miles long + amongst them are So Delushious! by Chrissy Teigen, The Best by Sess by Sessilee Lopez and Bonjour Amanda by Amanda Strang.

Chrissy is just a regular girl that enjoys spending hours cooking good food to put a smile on the faces of her loved ones. I lovvveeee her blog mainly because of how easy her delicious recipes are, she's down to earth + I get to see John Legend eating (bonus!). 


Sessilee Lopez's blog is more of a guide to where she loves to eat + her recipes. She shares her love of food + it's influence on her life as "one of the best luxuries in life".

French based model Amanda Strang is even in cookery school (a true foodie!) + she  is what I would call a meticulous cook. I wouldn't spend time cooking her food but I appreciate the time she spends and how good her food looks.


Other food blogs that I love but not from models, but fashionista's are:

** Luxirare: Just food at it's best, she is an engineer + architect of food + fashion. She makes the most amazing clothes from croc leather, chains etc. + food like edible shot glasses + other mind blowing dishes.

**Maison des Reveries: fashion and food, the best combination. She likes her food like her clothes, expensive.
Are there any other food + fashion blogs out there that you love?
