Know what I did last week, what I'll be doing this week, and what I'll be doing again the following week? If you guessed going to the beach, you my friend, are correct! I am a firm believer that life is better in flip flops. Sandy toes and a sun kissed nose are things I live for this time of the year.
Going to the beach is a full day event for me. From midday to sunset, the beach is my happy place. It's where I catch up on my summer reading, get some fitness in with a little swimming and paddle boarding, and just have a completely chill day with my loved ones. At the end of the day, we all leave the beach feeling exhausted and having not a care in the world. And, we can't wait to come back to do it all again real soon.
The beach is great for my mental health, but all that sun, sand, heat, wind and water isn't too great for my hair. Now, we all want sexy beach waves, but I have naturally curly, frizzy hair, the only waves I'm catching are out on the water. During the summer months I have to take extra care with my hair care regimen to minimize the damage the season inflicts upon my head. I make every effort to find products that are going to help lock in moisture and reduce frizz, and prevent my hair from feeling like a barrel of hay. That's why my latest obsession this season is Coconut Cream hair care products from Renpure.
Family owned and operated, Renpure focuses on delivering the purest, responsibly-sourced products available. As a mother, I really try to pay close attention to the chemicals that my children are exposed to with their health and beauty products. I was very pleased to learn that all of Renpure's products are free of sulfates, parabens, harsh salts, dyes, and gluten, exposing my family to nothing but healthy, clean hair with each wash.
The Coconut Cream shampoo and conditioner helps to easily wash away all of the day's dirt and grime, and the coconut oil leaves hair feeling soft and looking shiny.
The Coconut Water Mist Leave-In Treatment helps to restore dry, frizzy hair, and is a great detangler. Use it to hydrate and protect against heat styling damage. The Coconut Oil Micro Mist Oil Treatment seals in vital nutrients, giving hair a vibrant, healthy glow without making it feel greasy or weighed down.
I was hoping that the products would have a slight coconut scent to them, but for the most part, they are fragrance-free. There was just a very light, floral scent left behind after washing. Just a good, clean scent, but not smelling of coconut in any way.
Renpure products are definitely salon quality, but without the hefty price tag. You can find them at many retailers nationwide. To learn more about the Coconut Cream line, or to see other products available, visit Renpure.com.
Where's your summertime happy place?
What? They don't smell like coconut? Why oh why??? I ever so hate it when something is with coconut and does not smell like coconut. I have a Palmolive shower gel with coconut oil but it has no smell of coconut, so I had to buy me Fa Coconut shower gel as well to ease my coconut addiction :)
ReplyDeleteWho is that in that lovely first photo, Mary and Aly or you? Jason doesn't cut a figure fine enough to have his silhouette kissed by the sunset on a photo? :PPP
Whenever you is talking about beach I constantly think you live somewhere near the ocean and then I wonder where is the ocean in Indiana :)
Isn't coconut one of the best scents ever? I just want to slather myself in it!
DeleteThat's my best friend's daughter and her friend in the photo. I'm sure Jason will be highly offended that you didn't think that was him in the pic. He works so hard on his fluffy curves lol.
Sadly, no ocean here, but pull up a map of the Great Lakes. We park it right at the very bottom of Lake Michigan every weekend. Our beaches are not near as nice as what you'd find along the coast. No salty water or white sand, so we gotta make do with what the good earth provides us.
yes, love me coconut, and lemon and banana smell too! I'm offended that nobody has invented banana shower gel or body lotion or at least banana tea... I'd kill for those :)
DeleteWe have a lake near our city too, Lake Palic, but it is dirty and green with weed and God knows what not.... long time ago, during the Habzburg Empire it was a fancy summer resort for the rich and noble, so everything there is in villas and palaces and bowers and such things....
I know the coconut shampoo supposedly works wonders, friend uses different brand but similiar.
ReplyDeleteI get bored at the giant litter box lol
That's because you aren't doing it right Pat. When you get bored, you people watch. There's always someone doing something entertaining at the beach ;)
DeleteOooh. I'll try anything with coconut in it. Coconut products always do an exceptionally good job on my hair.
ReplyDeleteI have been trying some different shampoos to see what woRks for my hair. I haven't found one I love yet so I will have to try this one.
ReplyDeleteThese could be great. I know the coconut spray sounds like a must try.
ReplyDeleteI love coconut creme! It smells so yummy. I would love to try these shampoos and treatments on my hair.
ReplyDeleteI never stop hearing about the numerous benefits of coconut oil, so I am sure this product line is fabulous. Heaven knows my hair could use some extra love with all of the sun exposure and swimming going on.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great product line to share, I will have to check it out!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great line! I love coconut and am willing to try just about anything with coconut - such great benefits! - Jeanine
ReplyDeleteThese do sound nice. I haven't tried many products with coconut so this would be a fun experience for me.
ReplyDeleteThis stuff looks awesome - however the word NOURISHING scares me because I have really thin hair and NOURISHING typically means MOISTURIZING which means it will leave my hair really FLAT.
ReplyDeleteI am a total beach bum too. Every spare waking minute is spent at the beach during the short summer season we have here in Maine! I'm definitely going to check out Renpure's coconut products!
ReplyDeleteI love coconut oil for just about everything. I'll have to give these a try.
ReplyDeleteCoconut is very good for our health and I love that you have this product to make sure you take good care of your hair this summer! That's awesome. I'm sure it smells great as well!
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time I've heard of this brand and I'm sure it's as awesome as you say it is. Coconut does wonders to our hair and it keeps it hydrated too, perfect for the summer heat!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a perfect set of hair essentials. I would love try out that Renpure S'n'C, I've always required coconut oil to go along with anything for my hair or skin.
ReplyDeleteI am obsessed with coconut right now! I can't wait to try these I bet they smell amazing!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to try it too. I wish it smelled like coconut though. :) Hurrah for paddle boarding. That's next on my list of things to do.
ReplyDeleteI SO need hydration. This looks great! Especially the mist to restore my dry, frizzy hair
ReplyDeleteI have my moments.. I'm usually not much of a sun person BUT if if it's time spent outdoors in a beautiful, breezy beach with clean sand and waters.. bring it on!!! Enjoy your beach hols!! And do take more fantastic photos. I love your top photo!
ReplyDeleteAi @ Sakura Haruka
I like coconut based products. Here in the Philippines, we are very rich with coconut and its products such as Virgin Coconut Oil. I want to try these products.
ReplyDeleteI use coconut in everything, food, sin hair cleansing you name it...Love the naural smell, the anti toxin effect love coconut!
ReplyDeleteI want to come to your house and just sit there and smell your hair. LOL.
ReplyDeleteI bet that does smell wonderful!
ReplyDeleteMy summertime happy place is hiking with my family.
That would be great for my daughters hair - it's wild and curly and hard to tame - and she has dry scalp, so anything that would lock in the moisture would be great.
ReplyDeleteI loveeee coconut. And the creamy touch on your hair is just perfect
