Formulated by founder Leonica Kei, who is recognised as a specialist in trichology, Leonica K is a professional hair care label specialising in bespoke hair and scalp treatments as well as effective hair care products. Leonica K’s range of hair care products have since gained their own following for its effectiveness in addressing specific hair and scalp issues. This protein spray is great to use just before blowing or styling after towel-drying hair to lock in moisture and prevent breakage. Perfect for mothers looking to maintain healthy luscious locks.

Rebranding from a model to a culinary entrepreneur, Danielle Peita Graham launched her essential kitchenware line following the success of her cookbook. Naturally, her products would be aesthetically pleasing, even the staple chopping board. It’s made of premium bamboo, which is eco-friendly and lighter than wood, making it easy to use, wash and keep away in the kitchen. It’s also naturally non-porous and bacteria resistant which helps to prevent food poisoning when preparing raw meats. Mothers who rule the kitchen will thank you for this bamboo chopping board.

Specially designed with smart touch sensors, the Smart Bead can measure your orgasm-potential every time you slightly squeeze a muscle in and around the pelvic area.
