Beauty buzz
Skin and bodycare products that we’re buzzing about.
Sensory delight The scent of lemon myrtle and lime in this luxurious Sukin Moisture Rich Body Crème (250ml), $18, is so sweet and delicious it brings to mind creamy lemon icing. Seriously gorgeous to use, it’s cooling on the skin, deeply moisturising and smells yummy. Lip smacking good If you love Jaffas you’ll love this deliciously sugary lip scrub which leaves chocolate orange lingering on the lips and a perfectly polished pout. Lush Chocolate Lip Scrub, $11.50, contains cocoa powder and tangerine and sweet orange oils.
Transported to the forest
Karen Walker’s new fragrance Runaway (60ml), $159, takes you on a midnight journey deep into the forest where the warm incense of campfire woodsmoke marries with crushed pine needles underfoot and the nocturnal sweetness of sambac jasmine. That’s how Walker describes it and, after trying it, we are enchanted by this exotic, woody scent. Dry heels be gone Step up for a foot pampering massage with Linden Leaves NATRUE-certified Foot Scrub
(100g), $35, to remove dry skin. The cleansing and indulgent blend of natural pumice grains, finely ground apricot seed, pure grapeseed oil, cocoa butter, shea butter and active fragrant essential oils of sage and lemongrass stimulate circulation too.
Hair hero
The aroma of the beautiful botanicals contained within Evolu’s Enriching Conditioner (250ml), $20, are a delight for the senses. The enriching formula of avocado, citrus, juniper and manuka boosted with amaranth helps strengthen the hair too, making it a great tonic for chemically coloured hair.
Heaven for the hands
We’re in love with the fragrance of Savar Advanced Hand Repair, (60ml), $38. Enriched with New Zealand avocado oil and organic violet this handbagfriendly sized natural hand cream can also be used as a cuticle cream, and works wonders on cracked heels. Luxurious on the skin The satiny texture of Trilogy’s Vital Moisturising Cream, (50ml tube), $53, provides a perfect base for make-up application, and is an antioxidant superhero for the skin. An all-year-round moisturiser to always have on hand. It’s certified natural by NATRUE too.
