Nothing will ever beat that post salon-treatment feeling - but for me, with two little kids, finding time to go isn’t always easy - I love that at-home DIY beauty devices have come such a long way. I’ve been loving the new Microdermabrasion Kit from KALINNI Skin Co. The KALINNI Microdermabrasion kit is a super easy to use beauty device to use at home. It has a microcrystalline tip, which polishes and exfoliates the top layer of tired, dull skin, buffing away dead skin cells, while the vacuum suction unclogs pores and increases blood flow, thereby helping to promote collagen and elastin production for a plumper and more radiant looking skin - with far superior results than a regular face exfoliant. The KALINNI Microdermabrasion kit comes with; Microdermabrasion Device  Interchangeable tips x 4: 1. Diamond sensitive tip - for regular use 2. Diamond extraction tip - for spot treatment and blackhead removal 3. Diamond precision tip - for those small, hard to reach places 4. Diamond body

For the past few months I’ve been loving the Australian cosmeceutical brand  ESK Evidence Skincare   - their cruelty free products are created by doctors and dermatologists, using evidence-based and scientific ingredients to fight the signs of ageing and repair and protect the skin from the effects of a harsh environment. I talked about a full skincare regimen a little while ago, which was completely tailored to my skin type, needs and concerns (you can read more about it here ), but today I am going to talk a little more about their Ultimate A+... The  ESK Evidence Skincare   Ultimate A+* is a night cream, which contains retinal to help fight the signs of ageing, including hyper pigmentation, lines, wrinkles and skin elasticity, while also promoting collagen growth, combating acne and rosacea, and improving skin texture. Vitamin A is THE ingredients that I have found to be most efficient at both fighting the signs of ageing and reducing pigmentation on my ageing skin, while also help

I have all days been addicted to hand creams, as I simply don’t like the feeling of dry hands, and during winter it gets even worse. And it is super easy to forget looking after the hands, and we really should as they are one of the first areas to show signs of ageing. So I love that Enbacci has whole collection dedicated to keeping the hands softer, and more beautiful and younger looking.  The Enbacci Nourishing Hand Wash* with coconut oil and glycerine, to repair damaged skin cells, restore hydration and purify and disinfect the skin from harmful surface bacteria caused by environmental pollutants. Yet at the same time, it doesn’t dry out the hands, but leave them feeling clean, soft and smooth. I love that it has a fresh fruity scent too, it smells absolutely amazing. The Enbacci Brightening Hand & Nail Cream* contains aloe, shea butter, coconut oil and sweet almond oil, vitamin A and E, and it promises to help brighten sun and age spots and reduce wrinkles and fine lines, w

The clinically-proven cosmeceutical range is designed by scientists, using pure and efficient and powerful ingredients, formulated to provide optimum results with targeted solutions for enhancing skin’s appearance and reducing signs of ageing. I’ve put a few of their products to the test; Revision Skincare C+ Correcting Complex 30%* Revision Skincare DEJ Night Face Cream*  Revision Skincare Nectifirm® Advanced* The Revision Skincare C+ Correcting Complex 30% is serum that can be used twice daily on clean skin, prior to your usual moisturiser.

Unfortunately, I haven’t not been blessed with great skin. It has always been prone to breakouts and acne, and sadly it, and when they eventually clear up, sadly they often leave me with dark marks that take ages and ages to fade again, if they do! Lately I’ve put a few other products from Peter Thomas Roth to the test including the Glycolic Range (read about it here ), the Water Drench Hydrating Toner Mist (read more here ), and the Rose Stem Cell Range (Read more here ), and I’ve been exceptionally impressed with all, so I was very excited to be putting the Peter Thomas Roth Potent-C Targeted Spot Brightener* to the test too.  The Peter Thomas Roth Potent-C Targeted Spot Brightener is made using a concentration of 10% THD Ascorbate, an ultra-stable scientific breakthrough ingredient that is 50 X more powerful than traditional Vitamin C to help brighten the skin.

I always excited to come across new Australian beauty brands, and even more so when they’re natural and cruelty free like Fleuron. Fleuron is is an Australian made skin care brand that creates natural luxury skincare product to help nourish, strengthen and protect the skin while simplifying and beautifying the daily skincare routine! I’ve put a few of their products to the test; Fleuron Overnight Replenishing Gel Mask* Fleuron Brightening Rose Serum* The Fleuron Overnight Replenishing Gel Mask has been infused with botanical extracts to help deeply hydrate, and restore the skin and retexturise dull looking skin. It also helps rejuvenate collagen depleted skin, while calming and soothing the skin.

One brand that I find is totally underrated is Mary Kay. The products are only sold online or through consultants, which perhaps is a reason, but even so, the brand has so many amazing products. So today I am going to do a rundown on some of my favourite Mary Kay Skincare products.. The Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover* quickly and easily removes even long-wearing and waterproof eye makeup. I love that this two-phase doesn’t leave behind a greasy residue, and that it is fragrance free and so super gentle that it doesn’t irritate my sensitive eyes. RRP: $22 / 110ml The Timewise Moisture Renewing Gel Mask* is a super hydrating mask that is oil free, so suitable even for my combination skin. It has a lovely gentle chamomile scent, and feels so lovely and soothing on the skin, adding moisture and nourishment for a more plump, soft and healthier skin.

One of those brands you always hear a lot about is Paula’s Choice… The brand is founded by the Paula Begoun, who is also the author of the early 90s book, Don't Go To The Cosmetics Counter Without Me - a book I personally really loved at the time, as it was all about which beauty products were worth the hype and which ones weren’t... Anyway, I’ve put a selection of the Paula’s Choice skincare products to the test; Paula’s Choice Perfect Cleansing Oil* Paula’s Choice Resist Youth-Extending Daily Hydrating Fluid* Paula’s Choice Resist Daily Pore-Refining Treatment 2% BHA* Paula’s choice Resist 1% Retinol Booster* Let’s start with the Paula’s Choice Perfect Cleansing Oil .

This one is made using a blend of plant oils, and massaging about two pumps into my skin, it quickly and easily dissolves and removes my makeup, including any long wearing makeup and waterproof eye m

Did you know that the average woman is said to own 40 beauty products, yet use just 12 each day!! - Ok, as a beauty blogger, I actually admit to owning way way more than 40, and probably also have a more involved skincare routine than most, simply as I am always trying out different things to be able to share with you guys.  Because women are generally owning so many products, yet not using, in a bit of a Marie Kondo style, Arbonne is challenging Australians to take a hard look at their beauty drawers to make sure that all of their beauty products actually spark joy, has not expired, and does not contain any ingredients found on Arbonne’s “Not Allowed List”, in other words to a #DrawerDetox  There are a lot of products not allowed in Arbonne’s products, there are actually over 2000 banned ingredients, but here are their top 10; Parabens - some of these have been linked to endocrine disruption that may increase the risk of certain cancers Petrolatum, also known as petroleum jelly, which
