Luminesce products

I love coming across local beauty brands, and my latest discovery   luminesce skin care  is  Deáurora  Estate, based near Daylesford in the Victorian Macedon ranges.  Deáurora  Estate, which prides itself on luxury products using the very best of natural and organic ingredients, has recently launched some new products. Deáurora  Organic Hair Growth Shampoo and Conditioner  These products are specifically designed for thinning hair by gently cleaning, exfoliating, renewing and hydrating the scalp, to help promote hair growth.   Deáurora  Organic Hair Growth Shampoo is colour-safe and made with 10X more conditioning agents with a blend of premium oils including Agarwood, Ginger, Panax Ginseng, Peppermint, He Shou Wu and Cacumen Platycladi actives along with Rose Bulgarian Floral Water, Nettle and Mallow extracts. It is designed to help clean and invigorate the scalp and thereby help promote growth. It also helps reduce hair loss hair and make the hair look and feel thicker and fuller. I

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

Livani Haircare  As with my other beauty products, I am increasingly looking for more natural alternatives - but while it may be a lot better for our environment, natural products are sadly not always performing very well - and when it comes to my long, wavy coloured hair, it is often left looking dry, dull and very frizzy. But that was until I tried Livani ….  Livani creates a range of luxurious high quality natural haircare, using premium natural active ingredients for effective, yet gentle products. I’ve put a few of them to the test… Livani Strengthen Shampoo and Conditioner Livani Strengthen Shampoo - RRP: AU$ 58 / 375ml Designed for extremely dull, brittle and damaged hair, this is a nourishing formula help reconstruct, rebuild and protect the hair thanks to being enriched with sweet almond and rice proteins and elderflower extracts, all while being super gentle as it is also formulated with five sulphate free cleansers. It has Livani’s signature Luxury Blend fragrance which is

Mei & Co Skincare I love coming across new beauty brands, and even better when they are hand-made in Australia and cruelty free using 100% natural ingredients such as Australian Oils, Fruits and Extract, Aromatherapy Oils and natural preservatives such as Lemon Myrtle Extract, Aloe Vera Extract, Olive Leaf, Thyme & Rosemary Extract. They contain no chemical nasties, including no phosphates, SLS or parabens, I’ve put the full Mei & Co skincare range to the test… The   Mei & Co skincare  range includes 8 products, and simply everything you'll need in your skincare routine. Here's my thoughts.. Mei & Co Hydrating Cleansing Milk, Refreshing Toning Mist,   Firming Peptide Cream and  Intensive Eye Cream  Hydrating Cleansing Milk with Rosehip & Aloe Vera - RRP: AU$27 / 200ml This Milly cleanser is so light and gently cleanses the skin and removes makeup, while nourishing and moisturising the skin thanks with the added Rosehip Oil and Aloe Vera. It also has Cuc

Once upon a time, my hand bag was loaded with countless lipsticks, lip glosses and makeup for touch-ups during the day - today, not so much any more. And all because of COVID, and going out now mostly requires a face mask covering half your face, rendering most makeup, and most definitely lipstick no longer as necessary. In its place, next to the face mask, is now always a bottle of Sanitiser. It has simply become a way of life.  But we all know by now, that sanitiser isn’t just sanitiser. Yes, there are rules and regulations to ensure their efficacy - yet still, many are, to put it nicely, simply NOT nice. They smell horrid and they and are so drying for the hands.  Enter Touch Sanitation Solutions - the Australian made and owned brand that develops sanitising solutions.  I’ve put the Touch 24-Hand Guard Alcohol Free Sanitiser Foam to the test. The Touch 24-Hand Guard has proven to sanitise and stay active on the hands and offer protection for up to 24 hours. It also has added glycer

Today I am going to talk about an Australian brand I’ve only recently come across,  Jeunifique . The brand makes products using sustainably-sourced, cruelty-free whole botanicals, free from sulphates, parabens, lanolin, mineral oil, SLS, and artificial colours and fragrances.  I have put the Jeunifique Rejuvi-Nite Serum * to the test. It is designed for all skin types including dry, normal and acne-prone skin types, showing signs of ageing, loss of elasticity or dullness to help detoxify, nourish, hydrate and boost the skin’s own immunity, while reducing the appearance of lines and wrinkles, and soothing inflammation, for a more glowing youthful skin. It is made using potent botanical actives , and key ingredients including; Vitamin A in a 0.2% concentration to help firm and revitalise the skin, and reduce skin pigmentation for a more even and brighter skin tone Vitamin B3 (niacinamide) to help the skin retain hydration, and increase skin elasticity  Vitamin B5 to deeply hydrate and a
