My choice of Sunblock

Better late than never !! 

The 36 degree weather today has inspired me to share my choice of my favourite Sunscreen. 

It's designed for kids but skin is skin ! 

This 50+ sunscreen sprays on clear and it leaves the skin with a nice sheen without the greasy, heaviness of zinc based, pore clogging / cream sunblocks. 

The application is easy with a spray nozzle, so it's easy to apply on yourself. (Even on your back) & it's cost effective... Around $15

Definitely a winner with me ❤️BB #bananaboat

Cosmetic Cube

All Organised :) :)


I had been on the hunt for one of these cosmetic cubes for a while and there are quite a few on the market which made it hard for me to choose. I wanted quality, reasonably priced, fast delivery and not ridiculous postage fees !! 

Lol I'm not asking for much 😉 


So, I am happy to say I found what I wanted and I am loving my Ettica Cosmetic Cube...

Cleansing Brush

A few months back I started using a cleansing brush in conjunction with my usual cleansing routine. At first I was using this 3-4 times a week but have since dropped back to 1 x week as I find this is enough for my skin. 


I used to get breakouts just under my jaw and at the side of my neck.. I thought this was possibly from hormonal breakouts, but since I have been using the cleansing brush I have no longer had any breakouts. So the only other reason for my breakouts could have been that I wasn't cleansing thoroughly in that area. I wear makeup daily to work and I double cleanse every evening but this manual cleansing wasn't enough for me.


Beauties if you wear makeup or sunblock and are getting breakouts (and have tried most things) try a cleansing brush, it will thoroughly cleanse the skin removing any build up of makeup and/or sunblock and help prevent breakouts ( cystic acne and oily skin needs to be assessed ) Bonus- your skincare will be more beneficial on a thoroughly cleansed skin. ❤️BB

Fresh Colour :)

I'm one of those people that hairdressers don't like !! I like to experiment at home ( I am not a hairdresser) I experiment with my own colour mixes and on the odd occasion  I will cut my own hair. I don't do anything too drastic just a little bleach, tint, semi etc.. Thankfully I haven't had any major mishaps... Yet 😉 

Results = no more greys and smooth, shiny hair ❤️

Sample Jurlique

I am very lucky to be able to try so many different products from a variety of skincare companies. I literally a have hundreds of samples... And sometimes finding the time to try them all is a task. So, when I'm away from home I like to take my samples to trial. Recently, I was holidaying in Queensland with lots of sun, swimming, beach and activities and this left my skin a little more dry & dehydrated and than usual. I had a few samples from Jurlique and found this replenishing day cream was a dream. I would apply it in the afternoon after coming back from my daily activity when my skin felt over exposed. It felt beautiful, so rich and nourishing exactly what my skin needed 👍

Note: this cream is quite rich and I would only recommend it for Norm/Dry, very dry or mature skin.
