Wype just dropped a new Soothe gel for sensitive skin. I've used Original for a year and Soothe for three months, so here's the honest, first-hand verdict on which to buy. #Wype #EcoBathroom #SustainableLiving #WetWipeAlternative #PlasticFree
An honest Huel Bars review after two months: handy, vegan and nutrient-dense, but dense, dry and not quite a meal.

Huel Daily Greens Review UK 2026: Honest Three-Month Verdict
Last updated: 18 May 2026
By Stiv · Design, technology and personal finance
This Huel Daily Greens review is the honest three-month verdict on whether Huel's greens powder genuinely does anything, or whether it's just a £1.50 daily indulgence in expensive green wee.
This is an opinion piece. Views expressed are the author's own and do not constitute professional advice.
This review is based on personal experience. Huel Daily Greens is a food supplement, not a medicine. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, or prevent any condition. If you have health concerns, consult a qualified healthcare professional.
Greens powders are the wellness industry's answer to a guilty conscience. Didn't eat enough vegetables this week? Stir some green dust into water and absolve yourself. We've been taking Huel Daily Greens daily for three months. Here's what we noticed, what we didn't notice, and whether the science backs any of it up.
This is different from Huel's meal replacement powders. Daily Greens is a supplement, not a meal. You drink it alongside food, not instead of it. We covered the main Huel Powder separately too.

Huel Powder Review UK 2026: Honest Verdict After Years

Huel wants to replace your lunch. That is, frankly, a big ask. So this Huel powder review UK is built on years of me drinking vanilla v3.1 shaken in cold water at the desk, between meetings, while quietly judging whether powdered food really deserves a place in a real kitchen. Spoiler: it is better than you would expect, worse than the marketing claims, and your insides will absolutely have their own opinions for the first fortnight.

Best Vegan BBQ Recipes UK: Easy Plant-Based Ideas for Summer 2026

Five years ago, a vegan BBQ meant a sad portobello mushroom and some hummus on the side. In 2026, the best vegan BBQ recipes UK cooks are firing up include smoky jackfruit pulled pork, plant-based burgers that genuinely fool meat-eaters, and marinades that would make a pitmaster jealous. Whether you are fully plant-based or just want to mix things up this summer, these recipes prove that the grill is no longer meat-only territory.
We know this because we tested it ourselves. Last summer, the CoolCuration team held a fully plant-based BBQ. Some of us are vegan, some definitely are not, but every single person went back for seconds. What follows is everything we cooked, everything we learnt, and a few shortcuts if you want brilliant results without the effort.

AKT Deodorant Review UK: Is It Worth the Hype?

Cool Factor: 4/5
This AKT deodorant review is the result of three natural deodorants in two years. The first one gave me lumps. The second gave me a rash so bad I thought it was a skin infection. The third, AKT, has done neither. Ten weeks and three scents in, I've found the one I'm sticking with. Here's the full story of how I ended up rubbing a balm from an aluminium tube onto my armpits, testing half the range, and actually being happy about it.

Cool Factor: 4/5 - Stone Cold
I had been putting off buying new running shoes for months, partly because the choice is overwhelming, and partly because I have a mild pre-existing lower back injury and really didn't want to make it worse with the wrong pair. After reading advice from sports science and medical experts that the best way to buy running shoes is to get a proper gait analysis in London first, I booked a session at Runlimited's Borough Yards store on Dirty Lane in SE1. For £5 paid upfront at booking, it was one of the best running-related decisions I've made.

There's a version of a Friday evening that doesn't end with a fuzzy head, a 3am regret spiral, and a Saturday written off. The Sentia Cask review you're about to read is about exactly that version. Sentia Cask is a 0.5% ABV whiskey alternative built on a double-strength blend of GABA-enhancing botanicals — and we've been drinking it. Neat, with ginger beer, ginger ale, and soda. Here's the honest verdict.
