"Beauty" & the Bath

Tip of the day!!

Need to control those untidy eyebrows or know someone who does?  (Men included!)

Place a small amount of hair mousse or gel on your finger tip then run it over your eyebrows.  This will make them a lot easier to style just to your liking!


And remember....

A well shaped brow shapes the face.

Slip, Slop, Slap

Those words certainly ring true as we endure these hot summer days, so l thought l'd share this terrific find l spotted at Coles.


Coles Everyday Sunscreen lotion is 4 hours water resistant, suitable for sensitive skin & with an SPF of 50+, perfect for the kids as we send them off to school. I can also tell you it's non greasy & very easy to apply.

The one litre bottle makes it very economical too.  A great buy!!

The Essences of AVEDA

I have always admired Aveda's mission of caring for the world we live in.  Their products reflect this approach as they strive to set an example for environmental leadership and responsibility. 

I have recently been re-introduced to the beautiful world that is AVEDA.  My shampoo & conditioner is the start of my new collection.


Visit www.aveda.com.au and check out their fabulous range.
