Move over, firefighters; I want a calendar of THIS sexy stuff and its shiny results. Gold Bond's firming neck and chest cream — whether you've noticed your neck skin practically hanging on for dear life thanks to that darn gravitational pull or find your décolletage creased in the center from side sleeping, the glycerin and aloe in this formula can give that delicate skin some much-needed hydration, while the salicylic acid can gently exfoliate dead skin cells. Reviewers say patience is worth it with this one, so give your body time to soak it all in and enjoy those results! A versatile veggie chopper that'll help you prep (and clean up!) with speed that feels downright magical. The interchangeable blades just pop out, then just throw them right into the dishwasher! A bag of citrusy Liquid I.V. Hydration packets, with three times the electrolytes of a typical sports drink, great for packing on long hikes, recovering after a run, and keeping close during long days strolling in the sun. Honestly, you may just wanna keep these in your bag 24/7. A Java Sock that'll do the two most important things for your beloved iced coffees ( drinks. I know people drink other drinks!) 1) It'll keep that caramel almond milk cold brew cold for ages — hours, according to reviewers — and 2) It'll keep your drink from sweating into your cupholder or all over your desk. It's a cruel twist of fate that iced coffee sweats as much as we do in the summer. A longline sports bra so your outfit can say "Lululemon" even if your bank account is saying "no new clothes at all."

What does purple shampoo do?
If you have blonde or silver hair, don't you always want it to look bright? Purple shampoos have purple or violet pigments, which neutralize light hair's brassiness and tone it to restore the original cooler shade. Getting your hair professionally lightened every week can be expensive. Using a purple shampoo can maintain the vibrancy of your hair between your salon visits. Purple shampoo is a toning shampoo made explicitly for blonde and light-colored hair to neutralize the orange-looking brassiness. Purple is the opposite of yellow in the color wheel, and that's why the purple pigments cancel out the brassy, yellow tones. Regular use of purple shampoo can make a difference in the quality and color of your hair. Whether you have natural blonde or lightened dark hair, using a purple shampoo can keep brassiness at bay. You can use the purple shampoo once a week to keep your hair looking bright and cool or alternate use with other color-safe shampoos when you notice some brassiness. Many factors can affect your naturally blonde or salon-lightened hair's brassiness, such as the hair's underlying natural pigment, environment, pollution and UV rays. Depending on the brand and the store where you get the purple shampoo, you can expect to pay anywhere from $8 to $100. Inexpensive purple shampoos are available in the $8-$19 price range. You can find premium brands and specialized products that target several issues in one product and contain superior ingredients for $20-$49. If you don't mind spending $50 or more, you can find luxury brands of purple shampoos. Q. How does purple shampoo work? A. If you look at the color wheel, purple is opposite to yellow, meaning they cancel each other out. Purple can tone down the yellow color of the hair by neutralizing it and making it appear more platinum or cooler. Q. Will purple shampoo turn my hair purple? A. No, purple shampoo will not turn your hair purple. However, if your hair is too blonde or too light, and you leave it on your hair for longer than directed, your hair might appear more lavender. Q. Is purple shampoo only for blonde hair? A. Purple shampoo can also help remove brassiness on gray and light-colored hair. Redken Blondage Color Depositing Purple Shampoo This color-depositing purple shampoo eliminates the warm unwanted brassiness, leaving your blonde hair bright and cool. It has citric acid that repairs each strand from the core, leaving it strong and soft. Lee Stafford Bleach Blondes Purple Reign Toning Shampoo The Lee Stafford has Pro-Blonde Complex of panthenol (Vitamin B5), chamomile and moringa seed to give hair a natural shine. evo Fabuloso Platinum Blonde Toning Shampoo This professional-strength shampoo banishes all brassiness, giving your blonde hair new life with extra softness and shine like you just left the salon. Moroccanoil Blonde Perfecting Purple Shampoo This is a color-safe, sulfate-free formula that can neutralize brassy tones by adding rich purple pigments. Kérastase Blond Anti-Brass Purple Shampoo Another popular pick is this ultra-violet and color-correcting shampoo that neutralizes blonde, lightened or bleached hair to maintain the cool blonde color. It has edelweiss flowers to strengthen the hair and hyaluronic acid to soften every hair fiber. John Frieda Violet Crush for Blondes Purple Shampoo Another fan favorite is this affordable extra-strength formula that can tone brassy hair to make it look salon-fresh. Just one use can make your hair appear brighter and cooler. Kristin Ess Hair the One Purple Shampoo Here we have a silicone-free, sulfate-free, paraben-free and gluten-free shampoo. It is gentle enough to be used every time to maintain ashy, cool tones. Surface Pure Blonde Violet Shampoo This is infused with deep purple maqui berry and moringa oil to give you a cool tint while eliminating brassy tones. This shampoo also adds shine while protecting your hair from free radicals.

'Magic' hair thickening foam that 'adds volume and texture' is now 30% off
Haircare brand Philip Kingsley's Density Range is currently on offer at Amazon, and beauty enthusiasts are hailing it as a game-changer for thinning hair Beauty buffs who have managed to rejuvenate thin, sparse and limp locks are crediting an 'excellent' high-street range from Philip Kingsley. The Density Range, hailed as 'magic', includes a variety of products aimed at addressing hair thickness and shedding. The collection features the Density Preserving Scalp Foam, currently reduced to £19.60 from its original price of £28 as part of Amazon's Prime Day sale, which runs until midnight on Friday, July 11. This dual-purpose styling aid and scalp treatment offers a lightweight, dual-action formula that immediately adds volume and texture at the roots, whilst fostering an optimal scalp environment to boost hair quality, strength and shine over time. According to the brand, 90% of trial participants experienced lifted roots after using the foam, while 84% agreed that it 'worked better than any other root-boosting products they have used'. The foam's effectiveness is credited to the stimulating action of organic pea sprout extract, which aids in slowing hair loss and enhancing strand integrity. For optimum results, Philip Kingsley recommends using the Density Preserving Scalp Foam alongside other products in the range. The Thickening Shampoo, now priced at £42, and the Thickening Conditioner, now £45.75 down from £60, are designed to enhance the health, condition and quality of fine, fragile and shedding hair. The Density Stimulating Scalp Mask, slashed to a tempting £18.75 from £25, promises an invigorated and energised scalp as it works to balance and regulate excess oil, reports the Manchester Evening News. Not only does it leave roots feeling weightless and bouncier, but the fragrance-free concoction also comforts and feeds the scalp for a picture of health and equilibrium. Moreover, the treatment lays the groundwork for further topical solutions. The Philip Kingsley Density Stimulating Scalp Mask has received praise from purchasers, with a hearty 4.2 out of five-star rating from 35 reviews. A chuffed customer remarked, "This scalp mask is great as a weekly treat for my hair and scalp. It makes my hair feel nourished and thickened. It feels nice to use, and you don't need much, so this tube should last a while." Another enthused: "This feels amazing on the scalp. It's easy to apply and distribute. My scalp feels slightly tingly and it's very relaxing. My hair looks more voluminou s after using this which I find really interesting. Love this, will definitely be buying more." One customer, however, gave the mask a reserved review as it is 'too early to tell' results. The review reads: "It's still early days but so far I haven't noticed any difference after regular use of this product. It applies like a hair mask which you massage into the scalp, then leave to sit for 10 to 20 minutes before finally shampooing the hair as normal. The product is comfortable to use but I'm unsure of its effectiveness as of yet." Phillip Kingsley's Density Range isn't the only product worth bagging in the Amazon Prime Day sale.
