The RAW wine fair is a two day event, showcasing and celebrating some of the world’s finest wines. Featuring wines that are organic and biodynamic, these pure wines are good to the planet, and your body (in moderation!) The production of natural wines has become relatively rare, most wines in the shops are mass produced, so the number of wines available at the RAW fair is amazing! There’s an awful lot that goes into making wine that we don’t know about, but the wineries that contribute to the RAW fair intervene in the process as little as possible, and don’t use harmful additives or heavy processing.

At the fair, you’re able to taste and buy a variety of wines, from all over the world, some longstanding producers and some newcomers, it’s a perfect opportunity to find your new favourite wine. With your ticket purchase you receive a catalogue of the wines on show, a tasting glass (which you can use as many times as you like!) and entry to the talks and seminars. The show will feature over 500 wines, will have talks from the producers, and will also feature selected natural Champagnes, with all these collections of wine you won’t be lost spending a whole day at the RAW fair!

The fair will be taking place on the 20^th and 21^st (Sunday and Monday) at the Old Truman Brewery in London, tickets are available on their website and on the days. Head over to try and buy some of these natural and delicious wines!

To start with, they’ve brought out three new summer nail polishes, these bright colours are perfect accessories to any summer outfit. Keepin’ It Teal, Mango Tango, and Sunny Side Up, are three shades that are sure to brighten your summer looks. They come off on your nail as bright as they look in the bottle, but we suggest using a topcoat to make sure the colour stays vibrant on your nail. Priced at a very affordable £2.99 you can pick up the whole collection to brighten up both your nails and your outfits!

Next in the collection is the Mood Lip Glosses, perfect for any festival girl that doesn’t want to spend ages messing about with lip liner and lipstick. These glosses react with your ph-level to create a lip colour unique to you. It comes out of the tube as an opaque white colour, and once applied to your lips you see it transform to your perfect hue. They’re available in Glastonberry and Peace Pout.

Last in the collection is my favourite, the Blusher Bricks. I can’t go a day without a blusher, and these bricks combine three shades that you can mix together or use individually, a great multitasking product to change up your look instantly! It comes in two shades, Pinks and Browns, and as you can guess, the Pinks will give you a perfect rosy glow, and the Browns are brilliant to use as a bronzer.

As any on-the-go girl can tell you, products that work and  are small enough to fit in our permanently cluttered handbags are essential.

Not only will this tiny tin of cream fit in the smallest of clutches, but it’s a really lovely cream to have on hand.

Together, the natural ingredients and steam mix together remaining totally pure and effective. The second you use it, the light cream sinks into your skin, making your skin feel softer for longer. Ingredients like orange flower, oatmeal, almond oil, and cocoa butter, leave your skin non-irritated and perfectly moisturised. All products are handmade, using fresh and sustainable ingredients, making them beautiful, effective, affordable and ethical. Their website has tons of different tins of this brilliant cream to choose from, whether its style or substance you’re after, Steam Cream has a tin for you. You can use this cream on your hands, body and face, our only problem with it is that there just isn’t enough – there’s no pleasing us girls! And for all your travelling beauty junkies, the 75g tin is hand-luggage appropriate!

Perfect for your skin and your jam-packed bag, pick up a tin (or two) of Steam Cream for yourself as a gift, you’ll definitely be back for more!

These cool Kozo Lamps are all handmade from galvanised iron pipes and fittings, the designs are rough and vivid.

Their range of lamps, big and small, can be customised with different lampshade covers, making sure your new industrial chic piece fits with your home. Whether you choose a desk lamp, overhead lighting, or a floor lamp, you can rest assured that your Kozo lamp is environmentally responsible and will stand the test of time.
