Favourite Finds – Haconut Original Organic Body Scrub

August 25, 2015

Does this story sound familiar to you?

As a child you would sneakily disguise chocolate cake baking as a way to consume the batter rather than produce a cake from it? Those childhood memories were brought to life when I discovered Haconut Original Organic Body Scrub only a few months ago. You’re in for a treat because this scrub smells so good you’ll be tempted to eat more than you scrub with it.

Funny that, because 90% of the ingredient list is actually edible.

The Haconut brand was born out of a desire to create a unique product that wasn’t based around coffee – a market dominated by the likes of Frank Body. They rose to meet the challenge thanks to the discovery of ground coconut husks which they believed matched the exfoliating properties of their caffeinated sisters.

It’s Saturday night and you are looking for luscious locks without drowning your gorgeous hair in a tonne of chemicals?

Look no further than my latest favourite find – Bambi & Sammi No.1 hair mask. This tiny but lively pouch of creamy goodness, is the perfect pick me up. In fact, it’s become a vital part of my pre-date night ritual, a little Bambi & Sammi for the hair and The Little Alchemist Cacao and Banana mask for the face.

Favourite Finds – Lewin & Reilly Women’s Skin Trio

May 15, 2015

This is one local brand that is ticking all the boxes right now.

And their story goes something like this…

Husband and wife duo, Kim and Andi, first discovered the concept for their skincare brand while honeymooning in the idyllic Cook Islands. The pair share diverse backgrounds spanning wine making to publishing, but it was the abundance of natural ingredients available in the South Pacific that captured their hearts. They also recognised the huge impact these special ingredients had on the health and wellbeing of the native people.  Several years later and back on Australian shores, they believed a skincare line would be the finest way to bring awareness to the healing properties of  these plants and oils.

Sourced from sustainable farms across the Pacific islands and Australia, their formulas combine wild harvested and Organic oils, butters, hydrosols/floral waters, waxes and potent plant extracts.

Favourite Finds – Vanessa Megan Bug Off Me

Whether you are camping in the great outdoors or enjoying a barbecue on the last of warm nights, the last thing you want is a pesky mosquito hanging around. Not to mention waking up to find you’ve been ‘attacked’ like a 2-year-old with chicken pox.

As a natural beauty, my initial thought was – well how can I possibly find a bug repellant that is remotely natural?

And then it appeared – Vanessa Megan Bug Off Me roll-on repellant.
