£20 Color Wow becomes 'must-have' buy for unruly hair in the humid weather
As Scotland was struck by a heatwave over the past couple of days, with temperatures reaching a high of 28.9 in Drumnadrochit, many of us tried to make the most of the unusually warm weather. However, while we could all do with a bit of Vitamin D, the weather can have a negative impact on our hair.
For those who have spent what seems like a lifetime forcing your hair to look smooth, sleek and frizz free, going outdoors into the heat can be the last thing you want to do because as soon as the humidity hits, all your hardwork is ruined.
If this is something you struggle with, Amazon has just dropped the price of the COLOR WOW Extra Strength Dream Coat, which is an anti-humidity treatment for your hair. With some reviewers hailing it as a 'must-have' buy, shoppers can now grab a 200ml bottle for the reduced price of £20.95.
Normally priced at £32, shoppers will also be able to start using the treatment on their hair the next day due to Amazon's speedy delivery service, reports Birmingham Live.
Shoppers will need to use the Color Wow treatment after they have finished shampooing, conditioning and towel-drying their hair. From there, users should split their hair into sections and spray each of them liberally. Finally, shoppers will need to blow-dry the sections.
The spray works by locking moisture into the strands of your hair and blocking out any humidity. This is done with use of flex-elastic polymers that will keep straight, blow-dried styles looking glossy and sleek. The anti-frizz results are said to last for up to four washes.
Suitable for coarse, frizzy, dry, curly, damaged or coily hair, the waterproof technology in the treatment should be able to keep any pesky flyaways and frizz at bay between washes.

Product Description
Another popular anti-frizz product is the R+Co Moon Landing Anti-Humidity Spray. Priced at £26.50, this 180ml bottle is said to calm frizz and repel moisture. Infused with a polymer blend and a sea buckthorn oil, this product will tame flyaways and leave hair looking shiny and hydrated.
Alternatively, shoppers can buy Living Proof No Frizz Instant De-Frizzer from SpaceNK for £28. This 208ml bottle is said to provide softness, smoothness and shine to your hair, and is ideal for those who have medium to thick tresses. Shoppers can also get 15 per cent off their first order by using the code FIRST15.
Back to Color Wow, Amazon shoppers have been raving over this treatment, which has been bought by over 3,000 shoppers in the last 30 days.
One happy shopper said: "Amazing product. Where has this been all my life! Well worth the money and will definitely purchase again."
With another added: "I was sceptical to try yet another hair product so bought this small bottle given the price. I have just used it and it is exactly what is says on the tin .. 'wow'. Normally if I blow dry my hair it looks like I have been dragged through a hedge backwards and need to use the straighteners to look presentable.
"This has made me look like I have just gone for a blow dry at the salon and I don't need to use my straighteners. I haven't seen if it lives up to staying on the hair for a couple of washes but I am definitely buying the bigger bottle!"
However, some shoppers noted varying results, as one person said: "All of my friends where raving about this product so I bought it myself. To be honest, it didn't do much for me, maybe it's because I only use a brush and hairdryer on it and maybe you are supposed to use something more "professional" to seal the product."
With another adding: "I bought this product cause I saw good results on my friend hair but it doesn't do the same thing on my hair."
Despite this, one five-star reviewer wrote: "This is now on my must have list. It works even on my very unruly hair! It keeps it sleek and glossy between washes. Great for anti frizz!!!!"
With a sixth shopper commenting: "Performs so well and makes my hair so so shiny. My style stays even when it's humid."

Amazon's 'massive and brilliant' garden pool perfect for adults too for less than £40
The quest for the perfect summer deal is in full swing, with customers snapping up a self-erecting paddling pool dubbed as "a heatwave saviour" from the sweltering heat this summer's weather keeps delivering. The Intex Easy Set Up 10 Foot Pool is a tempting way to keep cool in the garden and is a popular choice with customers, able to boast Amazon's number one best seller in the inflatable pools category and over 4,600 five-star reviews. This 10ft wide and 30 inches deep round pool is ideal for both children and adults, providing endless entertainment throughout the balmy months. Its three-layer reinforced material design ensures it's puncture-resistant and sturdy, ready for a season of enjoyment. The above-ground pool features a 'fill and rise' system, expanding as water is added after inflating the top ring. With its easy assembly, those suffering in the heat at home could be cooling off by tomorrow if they utilise the next-day delivery options available to Amazon Prime members. Inflating a paddling pool can often seem like a daunting task, but Amazon assures that it only takes around five minutes to inflate the ring, and filling the pool with water can be completed in 40 minutes. In addition to the pool itself, purchasers will receive a filter pump, protective cover, and even a repair patch kit for any rips. Although designed for children aged six and above, the pool is also easy to drain and pack away when the summer sun fades. One delighted buyer commented: "This is a fantastic pool, massive and brilliant. Price wise I think this is really good value compared to paddling pools, because it is so much better and I feel sure it will be reusable for years." Another happy purchaser noted: "It's an instant fun pool. I know it sounds simple, but it was fantastic on a hot day, and my teenagers spent hours sitting in it, sipping drinks and chatting." Alternatives to the Intex Easy Set Up 10 Foot Pool include the Funsicle 9ft Octagonal Family Paddling Pool priced £55.00 from Argos, one of the only product in stock from this retailer, and the Bestway Family Paddling Pool in the largest size of 305cm x 183cm from Amazon priced £44.39 after a 15% discount. For those keen to dive in without the wait for delivery, Argos stocks the Funsicle Round Frame 10ft Pool at £150. Though slightly more expensive, this pool features a robust snap-in frame, making it perfect as a semi-permanent garden fixture that can hold up to five people. Those blessed with more expansive outdoor areas will find the Large Bestway Framed Pool represents excellent value, slashed from £159 to merely £64.99. It comes in three different sizes, allowing you to select the perfect fit for your space. Another contented customer expressed their approval of the product, stating: "We got tired of having to replace the children's garden pool every few years because of both punctures and unattractive discolouration of the plastic. These Intex pools seemed of much stronger, durable design." However, not every review was positive, with one purchaser awarding just two stars and expressing their concerns: "The top is constantly deflating, within 2 weeks the top is deformed and sometimes the top is flipped over and the water spills, so I have to rush to lift it up." Despite this, the Intex Pool l has generally received favourable responses. One delighted customer awarded it five stars, commenting: "I bought this as a replacement for our family holiday to Spain. If you're drunk enough, and the sun is hot enough, it's like being on holiday. As pools go, this one is nothing short of fantastic. Get one."

Hot sleepers love 'soft, soothing' £20 cooling blanket that 'works all night'
"It really does cool you down on a hot night. We no longer need the fan. Fantastic!" Things have been heating up in Sc otland this week, with scorching 26C temperatures expected today, August 12, and conditions to be even hotter as the week continues. And although sleeping at night can be stuffy, sticky and uncomfortable in the heat, one way to rest easy during hot weather is to invest in a cooling blanket. And luckily for those looking to buy one, the EMME Cooling Throw Blanket is currently on a generous offer on Amazon. Usually retailing at £29.99, the smallest version of the grey blanket (130cm x 170cm), which comes in a range of colours, is currently reduced by 33 per cent to £19.99. Other sizes of the grey blanket on offer include the 150cm x 200cm blanket, now £29.74 down from £34.99, and a larger blanket sized 230cm x 230cm, costing £40.79 down from £47.99. The largest available blanket measures 274cm x 230cm, and is currently £45.89 down from £53.99. The full range of colours, sizes and prices is available on Amazon's website. EMME Cooling Throw Blanket £29.99 £19.99 Amazon Shop Product Description The blankets use cooling technology through 'Upgraded Arc-Chill Cooling Fibres' which can help to absorb body heat, claiming to reduce skin temperature between 5C and 7C instantly. The throw is reversible, with the cooling material on one side and comfortable, winter-friendly material on the other, making it perfect for all seasons. Made from 100 per cent Mica Nylon, the blanket is soft, skin-friendly, comfortable and breathable, according to its product description. The blankets are fully machine-washable, although washing them cold with a laundry net bag can prevent entanglement or damage to the product. Those browsing alternative cooling blankets may consider the Silentnight Restore Cooling Blanket for £45, which measures 178cm x 152cm. Or, Debenhams offers the similar Cooling Blanket Throw for £13.99, which measures 120cm x 150cm. But hot sleepers adore the discounted Amazon blanket, which has raked in some glowing reviews. One happy customer said: "I don't know the wizardry behind this blanket - but somehow it works. "I was sceptical as when I first lay it on me I thought yes it feels cool but maybe that's just the material, but no, it kept me cool all through the night. "I only wish I'd bought more than one because not only do I love it, apparently so does my husband and dogs - so it's a battle over who claims it first." Yet a less happy customer said: "Cool as soon as you put on ur self then that's it coolness has gone, wanted to try them as everyone was raving about them but don't waste your money use a fan instead loads better." But another impressed shopper stated: "It really does cool you down on a hot night. We no longer need the fan. Fantastic!" And another said: "Even though this blanket isn't made for anxiety or depression, it genuinely feels like the kind of comfort those blankets give. It's soft, cool, and oddly soothing — like a little safe space for when you just want to switch off." The discounted range of cooling blankets are available on Amazon.

Anyone working from home or in an office with no air con will be feeling the heat too, with temperatures rising for the summer's fourth heatwave this week. A hand held fan is popular but when you're rushing to work, or in a hurry, or need your hands free, it is more of an inconvenience, so the neck fan has become increasingly popular with many people. There are many to choose from and prices vary but the Morelax Portable Neck Fan has hundreds of five-star reviews on Amazon and is currently reduced in price by 21% from £18.99 to £14.99 for the white unit.

The product is also available in pink and green, both costing £15.99, which is still a 20% discount. "What a great product! It's so quiet that it doesn't disturb anyone else.

Quieter than some bladed fans, but still a constant buzz that can be distracting." Another buyer found it uncomfortable, saying: "It's good don't get me wrong but not big enough for round my neck it's not wide enough for me - no good if you have a wide neck."
