Sukin Certified 100% Organic Rose Hip Oil

Sukin is an Australian cosmetics company who pride themselves on delivering effective natural skincare products to women at budget-friendly prices. I think this is a very worthy cause, since so many companies seem to assume that using “natural” in their marketing automatically justifies jacking up their prices! Additionally – and this is the clincher for me – Sukin are 100% …

Review: Lush Angels on Bare Skin

I’m undecided about Lush. On one hand, you can follow a trail of lovely scent through your shopping centre to the store. On the other hand, walking in is like being clobbered over the head with a bucket of stenchy random perfumes. Their products are fresh and natural… but they’re also breeding grounds for bacteria and tend to go off. …

Review: Tweezerman Slant Tweezers

I’ve always been sceptical of the advantages a $20 pair of tweezers could offer over a cheap $5 supermarket pair. I don’t know if supermarket tweezers are the same all over the world, but the tweezers from Woolworths are pretty good here! Well, it turns out that the main pro of a fresh pair of Tweezermans is that, if you …

Review: Kosmea Replenishing Moisture Cream

I’ve always had a problem finding a good facial moisturiser. Overall my skin is oily, so in summer just rose hip oil is enough, but in winter my cheeks develop dry spots, and somehow my T-zone is both oily AND dry. So blackheads, greasiness, and flaky bits… the worst of both worlds! It took me a while, but I found …

Review: Laneige Strawberry Yoghurt Peeling Gel

I don’t know why it’s taken so long for me to review this, since it’s on high rotation in my facial cleanser carousel (I have 9 different face cleansers in my shower at the moment, and uses whatever my skin feels like that day… yeah, I probably have a problem). As you can see from the worn-off label, I’m a …
