Are your shower products in need of a little refresh? Or maybe it’s finally time to upgrade some of the makeup products you’ve had or used since you were a teen? Perhaps you’ve just moved into a new place and feel like its time to invest in some seriously good bedding so you can finally have the perfect set for each room, that you can always rely on and continue to purchase as and when you need? This little corner of Haul of Fame is here to ease the process of bulk shopping for a specific purpose, by handpicking our favourite hero products (from our findings of market leading products, reviews and trials) to ultimately bring you your very own Haul of Fame Essentials Kit.
Given the fact that we’re all spending a lot more time indoors right now (due to the current Coronavirus pandemic and the current state of lockdown) which we should most certainly embrace, we felt it was best to kick start this page with our Ultimate Shower Essentials Kit. If this room isn’t already your favourite room in the house, we guarantee that’s about to change once you get your hands on these goodies!
1. The Perfect Bath Towel

Christy – Supreme Hygro Towel

The best qualities of this towel include; fastest rates of absorbency whilst also maintaining an extremely thick and plush overall feel with minimal/no shrinkage post washing.

2. Fuss Free Hair Towel
We know exactly what you’re thinking right now. Why can’t I just use any standard hand towel for my hair? Well, hair towels have been specifically made to minimise damage and frizz caused while drying hair and therefore minimise the overall time spent applying heat with a hairdryer, thereby improving the overall condition of your hair as a whole.
Hair towels are made of lighter and more absorbent materials than any other type of towel i.e. microfiber, polyamide and even bamboo. The size of these towels are also perfect and conveniently tuck in or button up at the nape of your neck, to allow you to be hands free as you continue with your wonderful day ahead.

Aquis – Lisse Luxe Hair Towel
Easily the best, most popular and most loved hair towel around. Made from the brand’s Acquitex fabric, woven with ultra fine fibres that wick away water from hair strands without causing any friction and therefore damage and dries hair up to five times faster than a normal cotton towel would, cutting drying time by 50%. This particular towel simply wraps around your head and can be tucked in the nape of your neck to fix it in place. Suitable for all hair types.

3. Detangling Hairbrush
4. Shampoo and Conditioner
Here at Haul of Fame we’re a big fan of the OGX line, as the brand quite literally has a product for each and every hair type and concern. Combining exotic ingredients with a sulphate free surfactant system in most products and all products are paraben free. Every shower needs something OGX and here’s a couple of our top picks!

OGX – Coconut Milk Shampoo & Conditioner
Our top pick for those with dry and damaged hair in need of some serious nourishment and TLC. Infused with a creamy blend of organic coconut milk, ultra whipped egg white proteins and coconut oil. Can you even imagine how good this must smell too?!

OGX – Renewing Moroccan Argan Oil Shampoo & Conditioner
Our top pick for all hair types that are looking to have shine, strength, softness and silkiness restored into their hair.
Available at Amazon
Haul of Fame Purchasing Tips: Start with purchasing travel size products if you’re buying something for the first time. It’s a great way to test out a new product by spending a fraction of the price. That way if it’s not the right fit for you, you’ve minimised the likelihood of wasted product and money too. OGX usually runs 3 for 2 on their products too so you can mix and match between their different ranges.
5. Hair Mask

Briogeo – Don’t Despair, Repair! Deep Conditioning Mask!
This award winning and absolute dream of a hair mask restores and deeply nourishes hair with its formulation of 98% natural ingredients making it perfect for all hair types and textures.

8. Razor

Gillette Venus – Comfortglide with Olay Razor
For ultra comfort and a smooth shaving experience, this razor has 5 blades for a flawless super close shave with a rounded pivoting head that allows for ease when shaving awkward areas.
What’s even more special about this razor are the water activated moisture bars that release a light lather of Olay skin conditioners that allow the razor to glide effortlessly against your skin without the need for any prior shaving cream.
Available at Amazon.co.uk

For those with more sensitive skin who need to incorporate a shaving cream ahead of shaving, the Gillette Venus Comfortglide with Olay Razor would pair perfectly with the Gillette Satin Care With Touch of Olay Shaving Gel. Annoyingly, the UK is yet to get its hands on the leading and most hyped up shaving gel; EOS Ultra Moisturising Shaving Cream which contains a whole lot of moisturising ingredients such as aloe, oat and shea butter. If you’re in the states or anywhere else in the world where this is available, you need to get your hands on this absolute shower essential and let us know what you think!
Fun fact: Conditioners work just as well as shaving creams as they have the perfect consistency and nourishing properties!
9. Loofah
There’s been much debate about using loofah’s as a tool for washing our skin. A number of dermatologists have actually recommended that there is no need to use any form of sponge/loofah/wash cloth at all when showering as it suffices to just use your hands to apply your body wash/scrubs. This is because loofah’s are a breeding ground for all sorts of bacteria.

If you feel like you just can’t part with your loofah (as we completely appreciate that nothing quite lathers up body wash like a good old loofah!), try and buy them in bulk, allow it to dry properly after each use by hanging it on your shower caddy or bathroom wall leaving a window open, and replace it every 2 months. If you start to notice any mould or unpleasant odours on your loofah before this time, discard it immediately.

Loofah Exfoliating Mitt
You could also opt for an exfoliating mitt like this best seller made from Egyptian Loofah, which is not only gentle on your skin due to its natural fibres, but will also boost circulation, encourage cell renewal, remove toxins and buff away dead skin cells. Oh and not to mention it will leave your skin super silky smooth and glowing!
