monthly favourites
since moving up to the mountains with only a handful of belongings to get me through the cold winter months, i have gathered & fell in love with some goodies that i couldn't live without.
so i thought whats better than to share these valued products with you
A N T I P O D E S:
avocado nourishing night cream
my holy grail.
whilst spending my winter months in the snowy mountains, i needed something nourishing and hydrating for my face.
i have used so (so) many different moisturisers, oils, treatments and what not to try and re hydrate my winter skin and this Antipodes Night Cream is the thing for my skin!
not only does it hydrate your skin, its also packed with antioxidants, to renew those skin cells.
this baby is vegetarian friendly, cruelty free certified organic, plastic free and made in NZ.

R A W W O R G A N I C S:
superfood infused beauty
"recover-ME"- face oil &
"smooth-ME" serum.
these two have oils have been my favourites for over four months (hence why I've nearly run out)
over the past few years i have tried a concoction of oils. rose hip, coconut, jojoba & chia seed oil & i can honestly say these are my favourite little oils so far.
in both oils there is a mixture of acai berry, evening primrose oil, coconut oil, goji berries, wild harvest berries & even coconut WATER!
the "recover- ME", face oil has cleared up almost all my acne scaring, blemishes and un even skin tones, mind you if you're not into wearing makeup this oil is great at highlighting your high points.
the "smooth-ME", face serum is great at hydrating your under eyes, your eye lids, and all the places that sebum (the skin's natural oil) isn't produced.
say goodbye to puffy bags with this honey!
both are cruelty free, plastic free (and the bottles are re-useable) and made in Aus

L U N E T T E C U P :
menstrual cup
dont be alarmed. its only natural!
out of all my monthly favourites this would have to be my #1 so far!
the menstrual cup is a re useable medical grade silicon cup that catches your menstrual fluid.
the menstrual cup can stay inside you for up to 12 hours and can last up to 10 years!
before purchasing my menstrual cup i did
A LOT of research. honestly i was sceptical at first but after watching many reviews and talking to friends about the pros and cons,
i decided to purchase one.
my reasoning into buying a Lunette cup was that i was trying to reduce my plastic consumption to nearly zilch!
at my time of the month i was paranoid about how much plastic waste i was throwing away and also how much money i was throwing away buying "luxury items"
*eye roll*
so i made the switch.
and i wouldnt ever bother with tampons or pads again.
the lunette cup took me a while to get used to, not the feeling while its inside you, (beacause if you put it in right,
you cant feel it)
but learning how to fold it, put it in and take it out.
i highly recommened this product to my ladies out there, make the switch and help the environment as well as your back pocket.

S K I N J U I C E:
sun juice
i brought this cup of juice around two months ago and i have fallen in love with this citrus, glowy goodness!
sun juice is a CC cream packed full with antioxidant rich superfoods, and SPF 15 to make your skin glow and at the same time treat and protect your skin.
as ive got older i have decided im not a fan of makeup, my skin always seems to react from wearing it and i cant stand the feeling. but recently i felt that on some days i would like a little SPF cream to stop the sun rays from damaging my skin, a little something to treat my skin as well as making it glow.
so if you're like me i would defiantly recommend this little goodie.
its very minimal coverage, smells like citrus and "sun juice" is cruelty free, organic and Australian made.

handmade scrunchies
i picked up two gorgeous little scrunchies from Barefoot Wanderer.
created by hand in NSW, with sustainable and ethical intentions. they also create beautiful handmade clutches, as well as halter tops.
lately I've loved wearing scrunchies in my hair & i couldn't help but grab these two beauties.

V A N E S S A M E G A N:
autumn afternoon,
natural perfume
as part of my ethical choices i choose not to wear any harmful sprays such as deodorant or perfume that contains aluminium or any other nasty chemical that shouldn't be sinking into my blood stream. so i find it hard to find deodorants and perfumes that are both natural and smell nice at the same time.
i was recommended this perfume by a friend and can i say that when it arrived in the mail, it didn't disappoint.
filled with Mandarin, lavender, patchouli and Peru Balsam, this is defiantly going to be lingering off my neck for a while.
all products are cruelty free, vegan, certified organic & Australian made.
