Goop is selling psychic vampire repellent to ‘banish bad vibes’

Hold on to your vaginal steamer.

The latest innovation to drop on Gwyneth Paltrow's lifestyle website claims to "safeguard [your] aura" and "banish bad vibes" whilst shielding you from "the people who might be causing them".

Is it a moon stone? Is it a dream catcher? Is it a guardian unicorn?

Goop Nope, it's a psychic vampire repellent, duh.

Customers are advised to gently shake the bottle before use and then "spray around the aura" (Gwyneth for body) "to protect from psychic attack and emotional harm."

In terms of the kind of "psychic attack" that would compel one to use the vampire repellent?

When is Donald Trump coming to the UK again?

As ever, Goop's latest commodity has left readers marvelling at Ms Paltrow's ability to turn opium fantasies – probably incurred under the influence of a gluten free cocktail - into commercially viable products. 

Naturally, avid Gwyneth critic and conscious un-Gooper Dr Jen Gunter is having a field day over the "gem-infused" bottle, which claims to include reiki charged crystals.

"The psychic vampire repellent may not be FDA evaluated," she writes in a blog post, "but who cares when it has sonically tuned water, moonlight, love, reiki, and gem elixirs which is totally not left over water from a rock polisher."

Gunter is right to have doubts, I mean, where exactly does one source gem elixirs and sonically tuned water?

Clearly, it's not from the local corner shop, so perhaps for just $30 (£22) a bottle, the vampire repellent is a bargain in Goop-ified disguise.

The Independent has contacted Goop for comment.

The Half-Crown Braid That's Perfect for Curly Hair

Curly-haired gals, this one's for you. Yes, braids look pretty no matter what hair type you're dealing with, but we've gotta say this voluminous crown braid is perfect for showcasing gorgeous coils. Here's how to do the 'do yourself. Step 1: Start with wet hair. Run a curl-defining cream through your strands from middle to end. Step 2: Give yourself a side part. Gather hair from the part and do a Dutch braid across the top of your head, keeping toward your hairline. Sometimes called an inside-out French, the Dutch braid is similar in that you continue adding pieces of hair as you go, however, instead of crossing the strands over one another, you should have them cross under one another. Step 3: Right before you reach your ear, tie the braid off with a hair elastic and secure in place with a few bobby pins. Step 4: Loosen the braid a bit and let the rest of your hair do its natural thing. Looking good, girl. RELATED: How to Rehab Damaged Curls Additional Reporting by Abby Hepworth
