MOROC...CAN!!!!  (yes it can)


If you are yet to invest in an Argan oil hair product then you may be wondering which one to chose.... I know I was.  There are so many Argan oil hair products on the market claiming to be all that - deliver your hair with pure Argan oil freeing your hair from the daily struggle of dryness, frizz and almost death....yeah yeah...


Let me introduce a product I tried and LOVED.

Organix is an award winning hair care collection that prides itself in using only fair trade argan oil that is extracted using a cold pressed method which simply means the oil has not been overheated during processing and still contains all of the goodies unlike other Argan oils on the market.


Now let me tell you about the smell, texture and all of that yummy stuff.  The smell is something out of a sweet shop - simply delicious and the smell lasts in your hair all day.  All of the products stand out, however one blew my mind... the Renewing treatment.  

A creamy, heavenly, sweet smelling pot of joy and the best part is - it only cost $20.00 - amazing!  I have been using this pot for a good few months now and my hair feels amazing.  If you are a wearer of hair extensions - OMG this is amazing!!!!


Organix offers many different yummy products and boasts a huge 50+ products to effectively cleanse, condition, treat and style all hair types - check out their website for more information www.organixhair.com.


Is Organix easy to find?  Well that is another great thing about Organix - not only is it an affordable price but you can also find it in Woolworths, Coles, Priceline, Chemist warehouse and selected pharmacies nationally.

Organix products contain organic active ingredients and are sulfate free, with natural, delectable scents AND are not tested on animals.

I'm signed, sealed and delivered on this product.  Price, variety and ingredients to suit everyone who wants to look after their hair without the hefty mark-ups hair salons impose on us as consumers.

I rate this product 10/10


Go and get yourself some Organix and let me know what you think!

To Shellac or not to Shellac is the question!!!

Looks like nail polish..wears like a gel!

Introducing Shellac by Creative Nail Design.

Shellac by Creative Nail design is the new age nail polish system guaranteeing you and your clients a long lasting happy ending to any mani or pedi.  This unique UV polish goes on just like a nail polish, is cured under a UV lamp and can last up to a month or more.

Hailed the best invention since bread by leading beauty editors, Shellac truly is a must have this season and any season for that matter!  The Shellac colour range is also an impressive selling point covering ultra modern colours, classical favorites and the weird and whacky - offering your clients a wide range.

Most salons add the Shellac as an upgrade option to a mani and pedi and generally charge around $20 to upgrade to a shellac rather than a normal nail polish.  Obviously the benefits for the client are:

• no chipping
• instant drying - no smooshing wet nails into shoes
• long lasting colour and shine

Its a win/win for everyone.

I rate Shellac 10/10

Bazaar Rouge - look no further!

Twitter is a beautiful concept, especially when you find a link that leads you to Bazaar Rouge...


Most people appreciate art in all forms, its the emotion & energy that goes into art that I love.  The simple fact that someone has spent time creating that piece of art, every detail, every part with their own hands - its almost like owning a piece of some one's mind - truly a special thing.


What do you think of this most gorgeous piece of art?

Created by Alexis Southam, I stumbled across this on Bazaar Rouge a few weeks ago and have been thinking about it ever since.  I'm not sure what grabs me with this piece, maybe its the connection with nature that it so strongly resonates?  I just love it!!  

Bazaar-Rouge.co.uk is a website where budding artists showcase their artistic talents and can sell one off  or limited pieces to admiring fans.  It's a great idea and the thing I like about Bazaar Rouge is the simple fact that the art is different, its not made in a factory in China, it has been made by the hands of someone who had a vision and made it into something that made them feel happy and will ultimately make someone else happy too.


I know this isn't really about beauty products as such, however I like to look good and this doesn't just mean my skin and body but also what I wear and I hate looking like every other man and his dog - this is where one offs or limited pieces are great!


Here are some more pics from the lovely people at Bazaar Rouge, enjoy!

An exfoliant that is gentle enough for everyday use or is this just another daily time waster?

Its a big call advertising an exfoliant is gentle enough for daily use - especially for someone who has sensitive skin!

Alpha-H has this in the bag!  I have been using the Alpha-H 'Gentle daily exfoliant' for the past month and I have to say, even though my skin is not sensitive - this exfoliant is very nice for daily use.

The main ingredient in this wonderful daily exfoliant is Kaolin.   

Its natural adsorbent properties makes it essential in hygiene products and is often found in soaps, scrubs, poultices, deodorants, facial powders and masks.  It is the mildest of all clays and is suitable to add to products created for people with sensitive skin. It helps stimulate circulation to the skin while gently exfoliating and cleansing it. It does not draw oils from the 

skin, so it can also be used on dry skin types without negative results.

Kaolin Clay is high in calcium, silica, zinc and magnesium, which are beneficial for oily, blemished skin. The clay's mildly drying and disinfectant properties help heal existing blemishes and inflammations, while preventing new ones from forming. It can also be used as a scent fixative.

Traditionally, clays are used to reduce swelling and inflammation, and to draw impurities from the skin. Cosmetic clays are made up of different mineral contents, and each clay type has a different effect on the skin. 

The high mineral content of White Kaolin Clay rejuvenates the skin while the clay exfoliates and stimulates blood circulation to the skin. Regular use of clay facials will remove dead skin cells, improve circulation to the skin, remove debris from the pores and bring about a smooth healthy glow.

This product is gentle enough to use on skin that has severe acne to skin that is very sensitive.  The packaging is different - I'm not a huge fan of the packaging to be honest.  You have to tip the product upside down to administer the exfoliant, to be honest it was frustrating, however good once the product was in my hand.  You then mix water to the powder to create 

a paste and rub it into your skin - i would suggest at least 3 minutes - it feels lush!!

All round a nice product that is best suited to sensitive/acne skin types - people who are used to a gritty exfoliant will not enjoy using this product.

I rate this product 6/10
