If you are a tennis fan or player you must have read about the training regime of the top ranked tennis pros. Andy Murray is the perfect example of "no pain no gain" approach when he gets ready for his epic rallies during off court training. I have prepared a short video to show you how my regular training looks like. I promise you, yes - PROMISE - this works and is a fast track way to excel in all areas - speed, foot work, balance, cardiovascular fitness, strength and of course, powerful shots. 



I hope you enjoyed this video. Have you got your own way of keeping sharp on tennis court?. Please use comment box below.

My Pre-Summer Natural Beauty Wish List

16:55 Melka 0 Comments

Like many, I also have a list of natural products that I would be happy to be equipped with for the upcoming summer season. This selection is with active souls in mind, who already lead a healthy lifestyle and want some serious boost form the nature to enjoy the hot months to the full.
Take a look.
1. There's nothing more powerful than awakening aromas of pink pepper, Jamaican bay and lemon in Lotus Wei Inspired Action Mist. With extracts of Fire Star Orchid, Red Bird of Paradise Chandelier Succulent, Euphrasia and Pink Lotus this organic vapour is to bring relief to a frustrated mind and set it back on track towards the big goals. It's recommended to nurture creativity and focus on long term projects. This would make a perfect gift to web writers whose everyday job is to come up with compelling content. One spritz around the face and shoulders could mean job done and more time on the beach sipping a refreshing smoothie. Inspired Action Mist is exactly what I wish for. My order nearly completed from HERE




2. You must have noticed I mentioned Fushi on a few occasions in my blog lately. The Fushi Wellbeing Store is the ultimate destination for all things healthy and natural for me, and it certainly deserves an ongoing praise. I have picked an Energiplex and Proflex Supplements that were formulated to promote active lifestyle. With long hot summer days ahead it's not worth going into a sudden slump or risking an injury after a "too much too soon" bikini prep workout. Fushi tablets can provide that protection plus they don't contain any binding ingredients and fillers. They are also formulated with addition of vitamins and plant extracts in its purest form. Which one would you pick? See HERE



3. Finnish brand Kide has impressed me with its wide selection of natural face powders, blushers and bronzers. I have included a KO Reflective Highlighter in my beauty wish list for two reasons: it beautifies a sun kissed skin with minimum effort and it is a multi-use product which makes a summer makeup routine super quick and easy. Kide products are free from parabens, talc or perfume. Enclosed in sleek contemporary casing, Kide wins it for me this summer. Read more HERE



4. If there was only one part of my body I'd have to choose to take extra care of this summer, it would be my hands. Chronically dry, constantly exposed to detergents they could really do with an extraordinary product. Offering the very best of nature through added biodynamic spelt oil, AEOS Spelt Hand Cream is an award winning product that I can't wait to slather on my skin. With rose flower water, argan oil, dandelion extract and many more plant actives this product simply excites. Visit AEOS website HERE

HR23+ Hair Growth Serum and Supplement REVIEW - PART 2 - The Final Conclusions

06:19 Melka 3 Comments

As promised in my First Impressions Review (read it HERE ) I would like to give you an update on the results after 12 weeks of using HR23+ Hair Growth Serum. I decided to start taking the supplement again, (my sixth week now) so the results I am describing below are the combination of both.  Please do read part one of my HR23+ Serum review first to better understand my hair type and my concerns.

If I had to describe the effect of the product on my hair in one word only, I would say - STRONGER. With that, comes less breakage and unsightly hay like texture seems to be replaced by healthier and smoother strands. I am very pleased with the fact that my hair stays bouncy for longer. I noticed that because before I used to regularly use a dry shampoo to boost my hair's volume, even immediately after washing. Now, I don't need it. This may be due to serum's styling properties but the brand doesn't claim it.

There's one interesting thing happening to my scalp as well. Every time I run my fingers through my hair close to the scalp, I can feel a distinctive mesh layer, as if I had many more of new soft hairs popping out. took a photo of my parting, one before my treatment and one today, put the two together and here's what it looks like:



This is the first time I have ever done a photo comparison review. I wasn't sure if my commitment to a regular application can pay off with interesting  conclusions. I am quite excited to see it for myself that I have a fuller head of hair. What's really worth mentioning as well, is that I never used to have much patience to hair care routines. Conditioning, hair masks or salon treatments, all of these have always been missing from my regime. That hasn't changed, I don't like wasting time in the bathroom or my money in the salon to make my hair look better. I learned that it is just a matter of a short lived fix, with no long term benefits anyway. I did decide to take part in HR23+ testing for a few reasons though:
> my hair needed emergency help due to getting thinner, dry, brittle and unruly
> HR23+ Supplement and Serum are based on a unique combination of natural plant actives to minimise harsh chemicals exposure and eliminate side effects often linked to other hair treatments available.
> the brand is honest and doesn't claim miracle results
> it tackles follicle ageing and follicle inactivity caused by hormonal changes that cause hair loss in both men and women
>with HR23+  my hair care routine stayed simple and straightforward, it took less than a minute to apply the serum every other evening
>HR23+ pill is a multi-ingredient supplement that delivers essential nutrients and vitamins beneficial for general health and wellbeing

HR23+ Supplement and Serum are available HERE, where you can find more information, some testimonials and current multi-buy offers.

Although I have tried to describe my thoughts to the best of my ability, I understand I may have left you with an unanswered question. Please use a comment box below to ask, should you need more explanation in regards with the use of HR23+.

This month PamperPoint recommends toxins free nail varnishes, self tanning products, all-in-one makeup sticks and plant based moisturisers to live for. Check them out.


1. We predicted you'll be eyeing some fresh paint for your nails. Why not make it safer for yourself this season and pick one of the formaldehyde free Sheswai Lacquers? They dry to a glossy finish, they don't need a base coat and even one layer is enough to provide a screaming on trend look. That's sure to save you time and money needed to enjoy an unforgettable summer. Take your pick from HERE


2. Vita Liberata got us ecstatic as we nearly gave up on believing there will ever be a streak free fake tan product invented. There is and what's more, it is formulated naturally without any harsh ingredients we don't like and avoid at all cost. Vita Liberata Self Tanning Night Moisture Mask gives you a natural sun kissed glow while you are getting your beauty sleep - literally. Not only that, with its organic botanicals and patented HyH2O system, the mask intensely hydrates, plumps, rejuvenates and restores youthful look to get your skin enviously healthy. It also fades evenly - which is so important for girls who workout of course. A multitasking must have product, ticks all the boxes. Check it out HERE


3. Ilia Multi-Use Stick is another hero in your summer make up bag. Bursting with organic and unique ingredients such as nourishing orange fruit butter, it beautifies your cheeks, lips and eyes in an instant. We are featuring I PUT A SPELL ON YOU shade, an unapologetically peachy colour to suit a warm skin tone. Perfectly packaged in a sleek casing, it will compliment your sun kissed skin by giving it a healthy radiance. Buy Ilia Multi-Use Stick



4. No tan can last and no skin can glow without a luscious body scrub. All the way from down under we scooped up a product by People For Plants, new brand that uses certified  organic actives making sure the products are both of high potency and at affordable price. We love this formula with quillaja extract, the natural foaming agent, that helps purify the skin from dirt and bacteria in a gentle manner. No irritating sodium laureth sulfates here. Perfectly ready. Read more HERE
