(Almost) good enough to eat
OK, how good does this summer fruit trio sound — mango with cherry and papaya? Yum, right! I would absolutely smash that in a triple fruit smoothie, which is why it’s funny there’s a line on the Briogeo web site for their new mango-cherry-papaya shampoo and conditioner that states, “External use only. Spis ikke.” HA HA HA! Gotta make sure the hungry people don’t go eating their hair care products. ?
The Briogeo Superfoods Mango + Cherry Oil control & balancing Shampoo and Conditioner are the current dynamic duo to join the Briogeo Superfoods collection, which is their line of shampoos and conditioners made with yummy-sounding ingredients — apple, banana, coconut, avocado and kale (yes, some people like kale). like all Briogeo hair products, it’s silicone-free, cruelty-free and vegan, and antioxidants are front and center:

This sulfate-free and silicone-free shampoo and conditioner duo harnesses the power of papaya enzymes to help balance oil production on hair and scalp. The formula also consists of antioxidant-rich fruits, vitamins, and nutrients to support healthy-looking hair. The shampoo is formulated with 93% naturally derived ingredients, and the conditioner is formulated with 96% naturally derived ingredients.

If you often find yourself with greasy roots (it happens to the best of us), this set could be your jam. I’ve been using both the shampoo and conditioner after incredibly sweaty workouts, and when we’ve had very hot days (of which we’ve had a few lately), and I like them a lot.
The shampoo lathers up into luxurious, creamy bubbles, and my hair feels clean but not stripped after I rinse the product out. The conditioner’s charming too. It makes my hair feel silky, yet light and bouncy at the same time, and not weighed down.
Oh, and the scent! It smells refreshing, delicious and unironically like a fresh smoothie made from cherries and mango…but I don’t pick up on any papaya notes.

For me, this set is as a once-or-twice a week clarifying treatment, rather than a daily sort of thing. If I use it for too lots of days back-to-back, my ends start feeling a little dry. but if your roots and scalp tend to build up oil very quickly, you might like using it every day, or every other day.

Speaking of yummy things…I made a delicious lunch yesterday, if I do say so myself, and it took lessend fem minutter. Caribisk stil brun ris med sorte bønner, pan-stegt halloummi ost lavet med avocado olie og sauteed spinat.
Jeg undskylder for den alvorlige mangel på mad styling, lol! Jeg var ravenous, og jeg har også nu den dårlige rutine at spise, mens jeg stadig står op i køkkenet. Jeg gider ikke engang at finde et sæde længere. #momlife.
Jeg har spist kødfrie måltider i det seneste, og denne var hurtig og påfyldning. For det første opvarmede jeg en præfabrikeret pakke af caribisk-stil brun ris med sorte bønner i mikrobølgeovnen. FYI, det er ikke for krydret (jeg er en WIMP), og du kan finde den på målet ved godt og samles. God og indsamling gør også et ton af forskellige forudfremstillede mikrobølgefri ris og korn side retter i pakker, og de er alle ganske gode imo.
Derefter sautérede jeg et par store håndfulde frisk spinat belagt med Avocado oliespray i en nonstick pande. Da spinaten vised, tog jeg det ud, toppede det med citronpeper og genanvendt den samme pande for at stege halloumi ost. Spinat, Avocado Oil Spray og Halloumi Cheese er alle fra Trader Joe’s.
REKLAME
Har du nogensinde prøvet Halloumi Cheese? Det er en halvfirmost lavet af en blanding af gedens og fåremælk (lejlighedsvis er koens mælk også op i blandingen), der hælder fra Cypern, og det er en favorit i græsk madlavning. Det ligner Mozzarella i tekstur, men har et højt smeltepunkt, så du kan stege eller grille det uden at det bliver til Mushy Goo. Det er godt for at få noget protein i et kødløst måltid, så hvis du ser det på TJ’s eller et andet sted, skal du holde fast i det!
