FACE AND BODY


~  Australian Bush Flower Essences  ~

Love System

Gentle Purifying Mask & Exfoliating Cream!


It seems quite common now a days to find a wide range of different multi use products, however
I don't recall coming across too many exfoliating/mask products for both the face and body do you?

I am a big fan of this certified organic, Australian brand having previously tried and loved a range of
their Love System products already and honestly, simply can't get enough of them! All of their 
products give off this amazing natural aroma which you can't mistake for anything but smelling like
Australia! I am proud to be fourth generation Aussie and both of my children make fifth in our family.


Australian Bush Flower Essences travel the country sourcing a diverse range of beautiful native
Australian flowers to use their essence in their products. I cannot stress enough how beautiful their
products feel on the skin, their are all so gentle and soothing, each with their own specific benefits, 
their wide range means you are sure to find something that will work for you. See the full range here.
There is even a samplers pack if you just want to try out a few things first. :)

The latest I have been trying out has come at such a good time as I have gone far too long without 
exfoliating my face and body, and I love the feeling of removing all those dead skin cells which build
up daily! I religiously cleanse and moisturising my whole body twice daily, however before using this
I knew it was time to start investing some of my time to scrubbing as my skin was beginning to feel 
rough, a bit bumpy and just feeling a little bit blah. 




This is a creamy formulation with deep red grains of natural bush flowers contains a mix of 
Angelsword, Bauhinia, Billy Goat Plum, Bottlebrush, Five Corners, Flannel Flower & Fringed Violet.

This multi use product also moisturises your skin which is such an important factor after
exfoliation! Can also be left on longer as a mask
for a deep cleanse.  Win win win!







Both the tube & box can be recycled and are available to purchase directly from the ABFE
website here for $22.95.

Also available at Planet Health in NSW and
a few select Practitioners nation wide.

Love System

Purifying Cream Cleanser


Forever a beauty blogger, forever trying new cleansers and I have to say since delving into this
Aussie brand and trying out a variety of their different products throughout this year I was very
excited to try this particular facial cleanser since I have tried their Face Wash Serum which was 
pretty impressive I have to say! You can read all about my experience with that one here. :)

In the meantime here is my review on the Purifying Cream Cleanser!

Containing a very unique blend of 87% certified organic ingredients all from native Australian
bush flowers including - Angelsword, Billy Goat Plum, Bottlebrush, Bush Iris, Five Corners, Flannel
Flower & Fringed Violet this refreshing blend smells almost citrus and feels more like a serum as it
does not lather or bubble up when I used it with water to cleanse my face. However the light white
formula is very gentle and feels very uplifting and energising to use and it seems to do a great job at
removing excess dirt and oil after a long day, especially when I have been out in the garden a lot with
my kids lately getting into the dirt and sandpit. When you're playing with kids, that stuff gets all over
the place! Am I right fellow Mummies?


My skin appears much clearer and renewed directly after cleansing and you really only need to use 
one pump from the 50ml bottle to get the job done. Well worth the $22.95 as I am sure this is going to
last me many more months. 50ml is a really great travel size too. I am so happy to add this ABFE 
product to me collection. Using this in conjunction with my Intensive Eye Serum and Uplifting Body
Lotion is a triple treat and it feels awesome using all Australian products.

LOVE SYSTEM


~ AUSTRALIAN BUSH FLOWER ESSENCES ~

Love System

Gentle Everyday Face Wash Serum!


Has anyone else noticed the sudden drastic change in the weather lately? Over the past few weeks
here is Brisbane is seems to have gone from humid and hot to quite chilly in the mornings, warming
up throughout the day to become a beautiful balmy perfect day. However nice this change happens to
be, somehow my skin and body in general is not happy. As soon as the slight cold snap hit my nose
began to run, my skin has broken out slightly and I just in general don't feel 100% myself. Boo! :(

To cheer myself up and treat myself to some pampering (which always seems to do the trick!) I
decided to try out a different brand on my skin as trying new products is something I love doing and
makes me happy! :)

Australian Bush Flower Essences is a brand I have tried in the past with various samples provided
in a few different subscription boxes and really enjoyed them as they are all about self love and
looking after youself. Not to mention I am all for supporting our Aussie brands!

Including this vast arrangment of samples you see below (Keep a look out for them in my
upcoming April Empties!) I have also been trying out their Gentle Face Wash Serum with
Purifying Evening Rose which smells so divine, like a bunch of fresh Aussie bush flowers, which is
exactly what it is! The scent is 100% on point and takes me right back to my early childhood days
growing up in a small country NSW town.


The Bush Flower Essences in this Face Wash Serum include - Angelsword, Bauhinia, Billy
Goat Plum, Bottlebrush, Five Corners, Fringed Violet & Macrocarpa.

Suitable for all skin types of all ages. Gentle enough for both young and mature skins.
79% Certified Organic Ingredients! Love that!

This white creamy formulation comes in a simple, easy to use turquoise pump 50ml bottle and
RRP's currently for $19.95 and was recently a winner in the Natural Health International
Beauty Awards!

DINING ROOM UPDATE


~ DINING ROOM ~

UPDATED

Hauled from IKEA!

Like a breath of fresh air, I instantly feel both energised and calm
at the same time when something in my home is updated.
It makes me so happy to be rid of my old, outdated and totally just not me
decor and in with a brand new style that lifts my mood whenever I see it. 

This is the Glivarp table and Henriksdal chairs with washable covers (perfect with grubby
young kids around!) match perfectly with the rest of my updated decor.
The chair covers are an exact match to our new couch so that was a lucky
find and I am beyond stoked about that!

As you can see we only have 3 chairs which looks a bit odd.
Unfortunately there were only 3 left in stock so we have to go back
sometime in the coming weeks to pick up the fourth chair.

The table has a clear top which extends and will eventually match the coffee
 table I have my eye on which is basically identical, only coffee table size! :)
The chrome/mirrored frame tie in with the bedsides and vanity in our
bedroom and the Morum rug just makes it all look a bit more cozy and elegant,
instead of just having the white tiles completely exposed underneath
and around the dining area.

My vase (purchased from Target) is not new, but I think it looks perfect in the space.
The placemat it sits on I purchased in a previous haul.
I'd like to add some nice placemats for each setting and perhaps a table runner
to help keep the table from getting scratches etc.
But for now I am in love and very happy!

Flowers courtesy of my beautiful husband who has been so kind
spoiling me lately as we've all been quite sick lately.
(Hence why I am a bit behind in my posts, so sorry!)

Battle Of The Red Lipsticks!


Who doesn't love a classic red lip. It's classy, timeless and looks totally sexy on any woman. But with so many brands out there providing us with so many similar choices, it's enough to make me wonder. Is there a perfect red lipstick? And if so, what is it?

Today i am going to share just some of my Favourites in my collection. You can never have too many right? 

Top (Left to Right)
Revlon Lip Butter in Candy Apple
Rimmel Kate Moss in Kiss Of Life
Maybelline NY in Cherry Candy

-

Bottom (Left to Right)
L'Oréal Color Riche in Red Passion
Shiseido in Perfect Rouge/Rouge Parfait 
Mirinesse Lip Bomb in (Couldn't find a shade name)

Other classic and timeless red things I love...

Hearts!
What can I say, I'm a romantic. I love love and all that goes with it.
-
Heels!
Every wardrobe wouldn't be complete without a pair of red heels!
If nothing fits, you're having a fat day or just feeling plain blah, then pop your lil peepers into a pair of these to instantly look and feel sexy! A bonus is shoes always fit! (Well usually!)
-
Flowers!
-
There's something special about flowers. Especially red ones. If someone gives you red flowers, you know they're feeling something special towards you.
They always smell amazing and are simply classic! 
-
Strawberries!
Yuuuum!  
Sweet, healthy, packed full of vitamin C and a natural teeth whitener.
Win, win, win! 
Oh no! I'm all out! Off to the shops I must go! :)

Which of mine is your favourite? 
I'm having a difficult time deciding which I like best! #firstworldbeautyproblems
