Party in a medieval-inspired whisky cellar

Battle oil with oil

With the heat can come greasy locks, shiny scalps and lank separated strands of hair but Moroccanoil’s new Oily Scalp Treatment can provide the solution to all your summer hair woes. This bottle contains an argan oil-infused treatment, containing a blend of essential oils, fatty acids and vitamin E, which help to protect, moisturise and soothe the scalp.

Separate the hair into four equal sections and apply 3-6 treatments to each section. Gently rub the weightless oil into the scalp with your finger tips and leave to penetrate for 5-10 minutes before washing out. You’ll instantly be left with healthy hair that is full of life, with visible lift from the roots and notice how much longer it takes for hair to feel oily or dry. This wonder product also stimulates the scalp and increases circulation, making it a vital step in your hair care routine. Our new love.

Moroccanoil Oily Scalp Treatment | £24.85 | Available from FeelUnique

Jazz up your meal

Head to new London eatery City Social for live jazz every Saturday afternoon. Located within iconic skyscraper Tower 42, the restaurant has an impressive line-up of artists to perform while you enjoy your meal. The best feature of the venue is its stunning views of London’s skyline from the 24th floor. The menu has been carefully crafted to complement the views, including food such as soft poached hen’s egg and bone marrow crumbs and deep fried oyster. Award-winning mixologist Gareth Evans has created a range of cocktails inspired by the 1910-1930s prohibition era too - fitting as you relax to the sound of the sax.

Head to the cinema

It's no surprise that Ryan Coogler's directorial debut, Fruitvale Station, based on the life and death of Oscar Grant, took home two top awards at Sundance. Starring newcomer Michael B. Jordan as Oscar, the 22-year-old California native who was tragically and fatally shot by BART police officers on New Year's Day 2009, the film also features Octavia Spencer - reminding us again why she's an Academy Award winner - as his distraught mother.

Warning: the film deals with some heavy subject matter - racial tensions in modern-day America - but it's important, powerful, well-acted, and leaves you with something to think about. What more can you ask of a film?

Fruitvale Station | In cinemas nationwide from 6th June
