WHO: DANDYDILL WAY
WHAT: Dandydill Way is a capsule range of exceptional hair and bath products for children. Beautifully packaged in recyclable bottles, the range was founded by make-up artist Tania Rodney for boys and girls aged 6 months upwards.
WHY: Wanting to celebrate freedom and encourage children's outdoor adventures, Dandydill way was inspired by Tania's childhood spent roaming and exploring the countryside with her sisters. Each product contains an exclusive botanical extract of wild grown, hand picked British hawthorn berry, collected by a professional forager around the Black Mountains of Herefordshire and the Welsh Borders each summer. The elegant packaging make a welcome change to the usual children's bathing products and the judges didn't miss this fact either.
Kids Stylist Yvadney Davis said "As someone with a child with eczema it's exciting to see this product. The packaging and branding is really gorgeous too." And, our own Editor Bonita Turner added "This is the one of only a few of my daughters bathing products that I happily leave on display - and often use for myself too. Shh.. its too good for just the children!"

WHO: JACKSON & WILLOW
WHAT: Jackson and Willow is a natural haircare range specially crafted with kids in mind. Inspired by the playfulness and vibrancy of kids and their hair, the product range reflects an appreciation for individuality, diversity and conscious living.

This natural, Vegan-certified, sulphate and silicone free range started with ingredients like organic avocado, quinoa, okra, rosemary, and baobab and is a welcome addition to the children's haircare market. Michelle Kennedy founder of the Peanut app said "If this product is catering to celebrating all hair textures, THANK GOODNESS! Long overdue, and beautiful branding too." Further award winning stamp-of-approval was given by Kids Stylist Yvadney Davis who stated "Love that this targets all hair types and has stylish campaign images. They smell insanely good too."

Scrubbington's actively supports campaigns that encourage children to be whatever they want to be.
