Feeling healthy from the inside out is one of our biggest goals at Retreat Yourself. We want to feel it from head to toe, and if we're starting from the top, we make sure our haircare products are just as healthy as our skincare or even the food we eat. 

Which is why we have loved treating our locks to the Hot Tresses Leave In Conditioner found in our Spring Box. So we sat down with founder of Hot Tresses  Tamara Loehr, to answer five quick questions...

Trends will always come and go, whether it's the latest fashion or technology our consumption levels are higher than ever. But there is a global trend that's becoming more and more popular which has a positive outcome on our planet. Our food consumption!

When it comes to choosing skincare it can feel overwhelming. When they all seem to promise you your skincare dreams it's hard to pick something that really works for you. When we started chatting to Bohemian Skin you guys would love them. And how RIGHT we were!

We sat down with co-founder and creative director Morgan Littler to learn the ins and out of her wonderful skin care brand, plus her thoughts on why we should be taking a more natural approach with our skincare. 

The beauty industry can feel overwhelming at the best of times, but in this consumer driven world we're seeing a shift in how we're spending our money and it's no longer based around quick trends and instead moving towards more conscientious and ethical products. 

By making a conscious decision to purchase beauty products that are either ethically sourced, cruelty free, vegan, organic or natural (like the products in our Seasonal Boxes) we can have a positive impact!

There's nothing we love more than coming across a great food product that's not only healthy but also easy to prepare, which is why we've been loving trying all the flavours of the Hart & Soul soups!

After constant debates in the office over what our favourite flavour is we sat down with Charli Walters, the general manager of Hart & Soul, to hear all about the family business...
