LUSH Gorilla Perfume

Lush-Gorilla-Perfume21

In the quiet seaside town of Poole, England, father and son team Mark and Simon Constantine work as a dynamic, creative force, inventing all new perfumes that defy scent expectations. Inspired by art, music, memories, people and stories, each perfume tells a tale and evokes emotion. Gorilla Perfume is an antidote to boring, mass-market scents, and a movement to get people excited about good quality fragrance. ~ LUSH

Lush Gorilla Perfumes

Recently I was treated to a exotic sensory evening hosted by LUSH SA to launch their new range of LUSH Gorilla Perfumes. I thought I would share a few of the photographs I took during our dramatic olfactory experience .

Lush Gorilla Perfume Collage

Hellstone ~ Heavy joboba and beeswax, anointing the skin with a sensual, warm undertone.

Lush GP Sun2

Sun – Vibrant, zesty orange, tangy tangerine and mimosa fizz recline atop sultry sandalwood for a true taste of the Sun. (This was my favourite!)

Lush GP Sikkim Girls2

Sikkim Girls ~ The frangipani, jasmine, vanilla and tuberose conjure up exotic climes and heady possibilities.

Lush GP Euphoria2

Euphoria ~ Essential oils including clary sage, grapefruit, lime and neroli to make a scent that is light, clarifying and expanding.

Lush GP Flowers Barrow2

Flowers Barrow ~ Ripe, bursting blackcurrant and sweet geranium are the tang of sea air and the wild plants that entwine against ancient stone in a leafy embrace.

Tuffy Fill n Freeze Pouches

Tuffy1

Winter is fast approaching, whether we like it or not! This means it is comfort food time, called this because of its simplicity, heartiness and the nostalgia that these foods evoke. Soups and stews will be making it onto most home menus in the coming months.

Comfort foods are made with love and care, which usually means they take longer to prepare but you can have a helping hand in the kitchen with Tuffy’s Fill n Freeze pouches. Ideal for freezing soups or making larger quantities of meals ready to de-frost for those days when you don’t have time to start from scratch.

Tuffy2

The Fill n Freeze resealable pouches are a must have cooking companion this winter. They are suitable for freezing and then defrosting all types of liquids from soups and stocks to left over meals and pasta sauces.

They come in packs of 8 and hold up to 1 litre what’s more they are made from durable plastic with a strong zip seal, which means they wont spill or tear.

Tuffy3

 

So what is so fantastic  about these Fill n Freeze pouches? Not only do they have measurements on the side but they are self-standing and won’t fall over and enable you to pour liquid from the built-in spout with ease. That makes these nifty pouches the most innovative storage, freezer and cooking bag an all in one solution.

Fill n Freeze pouches are available from most retail and supermarket stores at a recommended cost of R16.99 per pack. For more information on Tuffy Products you can visit their website by clicking here.

My Top Dream Destinations

travel luggage2

I have always been a very enthusiastic traveller but it does become more difficult to jet off to places unknown once you have children to consider. This fact may deter me slightly when it comes to planning travel but I still have quite a few destinations, which I would like to visit and I have compiled a list of my top dream destinations! A girl can dream can’t she!

Italy Collage

  • Italy, especially Tuscany, is a dream destination for both me and the hubby! We have decided that this one will probably be sans children as we would love to do a culinary trip to Italy. A gastronomic experience, holidaying in a villa in Tuscany surrounded by vines, learning to cook authentic Italian food. A while back I shared about Tasting Places, they offer an “informal yet intensive exploration of inspirational cooking”, which sounds like exactly what we would enjoy. Combined with the beauty of the country setting, the promise of wine tasting and a demo of cheese making – what more could you ask for. Eating, drinking and soaking up the splendor of the countryside! This is a dream I am hoping to make a reality later this year!!!

Thailand Collage

  • Thailand, was actually a consideration for our honeymoon but way back then we had to watch the pennies and opted for the Maldives instead, which was a truly amazing place! So Thailand is definitely still a place I would like to visit, the scenery is beautiful and Thai Cuisine is one of my favourites. I could think of nothing better than lazing on a beach sipping on a cocktail, with the warm ocean water lapping at my feet!

Croatia Collage

  • The next place on my list may seem a bit odd to some but I think Croatia looks like an amazing destination to visit and I have heard so many great things about this beautiful country, from people who have travelled there. With nearly 2,000 miles of coastline and 50 inhabited islands, Croatia definitely has plenty to offer, if like me you are a lover of sea and sunshine.We would definitely travel in summer, the beaches look stunning and I love the thought of mixing a unique cultural experience with a beach holiday!

Austria Collage

  • Last but certainly not least is Austria, partly because I really would love to see snow before I die and yes the wild-one in me would love to learn to ski! I have spoken to quite a few of my friends, who live abroad and the consensus is that the ski resorts in Austria are some of the best! I would need to find one that caters for beginners – something of great importance for a novice like me! This will definitely be a trip that would include the girls, an experience that I am sure they would love!
