EL8TE



El8te Rose Skincare

Pure! Natural! Australian!

http://www.el8teaustralia.com.au
I love being an Aussie, but the heat is getting ridiculous! I am so over it, anyone else? I have always
loved winter and the cooler months and this year I am looking forward to it more than ever!

Speaking of being Aussie, today I thought I'd talk about another totally awesome all Australian
made and owned company and a few of their products I have been trying out over the past couple of
months called El8te Skincare.


Moisturising Hand & Body Wash - ($24.95 - 250ml)
This delightful multi-use product smells different to anything else I have tried and is very uplifting
and pretty. The formula is an almost clear and not too running when you pump it out of the dispenser.

I have been using this both in the shower, in the kids bath and as a hand wash in the kids bathroom
which we as a family all use as some point during the day! This product has been well loved and used
by us all and I have heard no complaints! I am really loving it, plus the elegant packaging doesn't hurt
to turn the kids bathroom into more of a grown up space.... at least when you look at where it sits on
the side of the sink and nowhere else! ;)

El8te also offer a range of products in charcoal & spearmint, rosemary & citrus as well as a skincare range just for babies! This particular range of goat's milk and rose is especially formulated for suit even the most sensitive of skin types.

This hand and body wash is very gentle and feels soft and milky on the skin. The scent it deliciously
rose with that slight milky fragrance. All ingredients are 100% natural and Australian which makes me feel good about supporting our Aussie companies!

Nourishing Hand & Nail Cream - ($34.95 - 75g)
I always apply hand cream right before going to sleep. I find this the best way for those richer, thick
creams to really soak in, soften and repair my skin as I sleep. This particular hand cream not only
moisturisers deep within the skin, slowing down the look of your ageing hands. With it's goat's milk
which contains a massive 50 essential nutrients as well as vitamins A, B5, C & E and folic acid it also
softens your cuticles and hardens your nails keeping them healthy on the inside and looking youthful,
smooth and shiny on the outside!

This hand and nail cream isn't your overly super thick kind, however that's not to say it doesn't work
just as well or isn't as rich in ingredients, as the results I have experienced have been really quite
wonderful! Being 33, my hands are beginning to show their age much more than my face! Even with
applying hand cream each night. During the day I am either at work using my hands all day long or at
home looking after two young kids and cleaning all day. All those chemicals and hand washing really
dries them out and I never experienced this until becoming a busy parent. 


El8te Skincare are cruelty free and do not test on animals! 
Their products are also free from synthetic fragrances, petrochemicals & colour additives! 

You can kind and purchase these products and more from their various ranges mentioned above 
directly online from their website. El8te Skincare can also be found in selected stores and some spas
Australia wide.

ESJ


ESJ Skincare 
Lady Gorgeous Review!


When it comes to skincare, being a girlie girl at heart I can't deny I am always drawn in by pretty
appealing packaging. Like this luxurious set by ESJ Skincare, there is no denying the presentation
of these products is second to none. Definitely something very special!

This sweet pink sturdy box keeps your womanly bottles safe and secure after purchase, or in
the post if shopping online or gifting to a friend. The rose petals and personalised note are a special
personal added touch that tells me this company goes above and beyond for their customers. This
product duo is the perfect pick for any woman!


To clarify these bottles are x1 Body Cleanser and x1 Body Moisturiser! Upon first glance I was sure
this was a perfume set! By far the most beautiful and luxe cleanser and moisturiser duo I have ever
owned or used! I am feeling very special indeed when using these lightly fragranced products!

Some of my favourite ingredients include -  Ylang Ylang Flower Oil, Macadamia Nut Seed Oil, 
Sweet Almond Oil, Blood Orange Oil, Shea Butter, Lemon Peel Oil and Kakadu Plum Fruit Extract.
These products are 79% (Cleanser) and 84% (Moisturiser) organic ingredients!


ESJ Skincare also offer a version of products for the men in our lives. Think deep navy sexy abs man
bottles. *sigh* Definitely something I know my hubby would LOVE! I am going to have to keep this
in mind for one of his Christmas pressies this year! Make sure you take a look at 'The Gentleman'
over on the ESJ website!


Each collection retails for $89.00 and can be purchased safe and securely directly from ESJ's website.

ARGAN OIL


~  ARGAN+  ~

SUPER CREAMY BODY WASH!

You know that feeling when you accidently knock one of you fav body washes off the shelf in
the shower and of course it cracks and starts to ooze out all over the tiles turing into a massive bubbly
shower of ...fun? Weeeelll, that may have just happened to me recently so of course I needed
something to replace it and amongst the vast array of choices in my bathroom cupboard, this one
 stood out as looking particularly delightful with is aquatic ice blue and royal gold packaging!

When it comes to the scent of a body wash, that is pretty important to me since we are going to be
spending quite a bit of time together. This Argan+ 5 super creamy body wash smells so creamy and
contains a blend of Moroccan Argan Oil, Baobab, Kukui, Moringa and Sacha Inci and lathers up
into a velvety, fluffy blanket of bubbles which is a treat in itself to lather up in.

The amount of product you see in my hand below is really all that you need to lather up per wash.
It generously distributes that far, so this 200ml bottle is sure to last quite some time! :)

Currently available to purchase in Australia from Target for RRP $14.95 (200ml)
For further info & other products from this brand check out their official website!

Moroccan Argan Oil seems to be huge in both hair and body care at the moment.
Have you tried any products from the Argan+ range?

DOVE CUCUMBER GREEN TEA

~ Dove ~

Go Fresh

Cucumber & Green Tea 

Scented Range!




When it comes to deodorants nothing beats a roll on. I prefer them so much more over
sprays for a number of reasons. Roll ons are cheaper, last so much longer, are more
environmentally friendly and I have 100% control over where the product ends up on me.
Whereas I find sprays end up all over the place with most of them leave annoying white 
powdery residue on me and my clothes! I have recently been trying this fresh new cucumber and green tea range
from Dove and let me tell you the scent is so, so crisp and fresh! It doesn't smell perfumey at all,
which often irritates my nose. No, no, this has a much more natural scent that lasts all day!

I've heard a lot of mixed reviews on this cleanser, so I was very curious to try it for 
myself as I am a long time fan and user of Dove products so I couldn't imagine
 anything could possibly be bad about it. I'm not sure why people aren't liking this.
It works perfectly fine for me. I found the formula be look and feel more like a
moisturiser than a cleanser. It did not lather or foam up, but that doesn't mean
it didn't do its job. I could easily spread it all over my face and it was a nice feeling.
The scent was also lovely to have wafting up your nose. If green roses existed then
that's exactly how I would describe this scent! It's the kind of scent that keeps you
going back for another smell and then, ahhhh! You know?!

I have to admit, one of the most favourite parts of my crazy, stressful, funny, busy, messy day
with the kids is the few minutes I get alone to pamper myself after a long day!
So trying new and exciting body washes is one of the simple, yet most appreciated
ways I like to do so. This scent is a complete 360 in comparisin to my other body wash
I have on the go at the moment. Sometimes I'll reach for a particular scent depending on my
mood or what I feel smells the best in that particular moment when I'm in the shower.
Our whole family have been struck down with the sniffles lately and this fresh, crisp scent
is really uplifting and refreshing when you're not feeling 100%.
The formula lathers up beautifully and feels so soft and moisturising. I love how clean
is makes my skin feel without feeling like I need to quickly lather on a tonne of body lotion!


What scents have you feeling uplifted & refreshed lately?

Love Candy!

Natures Organics



Vanilla Ylang Ylang Body Wash
With Organic Sunflower & Brazil Nut Butter
If you have been reading my blog, then you probably know how much
I've been loving Vanilla scents lately. I have never much a fan of it, even
when it seemed to be all the rage and it was the scent everybody had their
body sprays and even everybody seemed to only drink vanilla coke when I was growing up.

Now, however it just smells so good to me and I can't get enough!
This body wash smells very much vanilla, with the Brazil Nut Butter 
giving it an almost caramel tint. This is almost sickly sweet, so if
you're not big on scents that smell like lollies, steer clear of this one. The hubby
has already told me he doesn't like it, so I don't feel like many men would rush out to
buy this one. I however am loving it! 

I'm not sure if I can smell the Sunflower
Or the Ylang Ylang, and I'm pretty confident I cannot even pronounce it correctly! 
But, whatevs, this 725ml bottle is going to keep me going for months on end,
so don't expect to see this in an empties post anytime soon! ;)
Such an amazing bargain for such a large quantity without substituting on quality. 

I love that this company makes Australian made and owned products 
and that they're environmentally friendly and recyclable.
 I always try to recycle as much as possible, so this gets a big thumbs up for that! 

I will be keeping my eye out for this brand from now on as 
I am completely converted and can't wait to try more from this company.

Antibacterial Lemongrass Ginger Hand Wash
With Organic Olive Oil & Lime
I was skeptical with this hand wash at first, just because I usually really hate
lemongrass and ginger scents. The olive oil and lime must tone it down a bit
because I actually didn't find it overpowering or strong smelling at all.
It smelt more like a menthol lolly more than anything. Not the butter ones,
but just those mentholy ones. 

An antibacterial soap is a must in our house as we 
have two young kids who get into everything and this helps to give me peace
of mind that they're at least staying somewhat clean if their hands are regularly 
washed with this throughout the day.

The formula foams up nicely and doesn't leave my skin dry at all. 
My hands look and feel fresh and clean and smelling crisp and slightly citrus. 

The pump style bottle makes the product disburse with ease
 and just the right amount of product comes out easily each time. 
Only one pump is needed per wash I found. 

My whole family have been using it and really like it,
 we even had visitors recently who also used it. :)

Will buy in the future and will look out for other scents as well.
