Naturals Ylang Ylang, Bergamot and Neroli Night Crème

I have a thing about body butters and body creams and try to moisturise at least twice a day, especially if I have been active or outdoors in the elements. There is nothing nicer than pampering your body with a divine smelling body creme after an invigorating shower or a relaxing bath!

I use a variety of body butters and creams but my new favourite is Naturals Ylang Ylang, Bergamot and Neroli Night Crème. This body cream, by Naturals Beauty is extra rich and smells amazing! It is especially made for use at night, when your skin is regenerating and needs extra moisture to help it do so. Ylang Ylang is known for its balancing action of sebum, known to be soothing on the skin. Neroli stimulates the growth of healthy new cells and has properties that help you sleep better at night. Bergamot finishes off this blend beautifully as it is helpful in treating nervous tension.

The cream has a soft silky texture and as I mentioned before, a wonderful fragrance and it leaves your skin feeling amazingly soft to the touch.

Naturals Beauty is a small family run business, based in the Riebeek Valley in the Cape and have become known for their excellent customer service. Their products are available to purchase on various online stores and in health and boutique stores. They also run Open Houses where customers can try the products first hand and be given personal attention and advice.

Vanish Stain Remover

As a mom and an avid home cook I am often plagued by annoying stains, whether it be paint from school art lessons or tomato stains, after whipping up a batch of my homemade tomato sauce! My go to Stain Removal tool, is definitely Vanish Fabric Stain Remover.

Stains occur every day on clothes in thousands of homes and as the stain removal expert, Vanish produces stain removal products that eliminate stains. With Vanish in your cupboard, you won’t have to worry about the damage stains and dirt can cause anymore to your clothing, giving you more time to enjoy the more important things in life!

To remove a Tomato Sauce stain, like the one on my white apron, above, simply dissolve one scoop of Vanish Power O2 Powder in 4L of warm water (max 40°) and soak the stained item. It could not be easier to do!

After soaking my apron in Vanish for an hour I rinsed and dried it and it was as good as new!

Silver Fig Jewellery

I love jewellery and have many different pieces but I have been searching for that “statement” necklace; something special and meaningful but also something I can wear everyday, if I so wished!

Imagine my delight when I found Silver Fig Jewellery! Silver Fig offer a stunning, original silver jewellery range, designed and hand-crafted by Neil Miller in his Johannesburg studio.

Silver Fig was founded in 2010 by husband and wife team Heather and Neil Miller. Silver Fig culminated in the couple’s combined experience of over 22 years in the jewellery industry, in management and design respectively, living and working in Johannesburg, London, Paris and New York directly for leading brands Debeers LV, Asprey & Garrard, Bulgari and Tiffany & Co., and later for a boutique workshop in London’s Hatton Garden.

Neil’s vast experience, as an independent designer, married with a unique and individual approach to silver-crafting has resulted in a unique collection of silver jewellery. His creations are inspired by travel throughout Africa, which combine nature and good-luck charms to create beautiful sterling silver necklaces, bracelets and earrings. Silver Fig Jewellery is currently available in 15 stores throughout South Africa.

Their jewellery has been featured in Elle, Marie Claire, Grazia, Glamour, Woman & Home, OK magazine and is loved by celebs such as Kate Moss, who is a fan of their Impala pendant.

My favourite piece from their collection, is the Wishbone Pendant(seen above and below), which I received last week, in this pretty pink pouch. I am loving it and have received so many compliments since I have started wearing it. The pendant is beautifully made and I know it is something I am going to treasure forever!

Many of my readers may have heard of Obey Your Body Skincare products but if not, this collection of internationally acclaimed beauty products is said to represent the most innovative, holistic range of cosmetic skincare. I have not tried any of their products as yet, but have heard many comments about the products, some good and some bad – so when I was offered the opportunity of reviewing a range of Obey Your Body products, I thought why not, I may as well draw my own conclusions.

Our comprehensive line of internationally acclaimed products combines an abundance of herbal and mineral gifts from nature with pharmaceutical technology so that we are able to offer a variety of products to you. As a result, you are able to develop a logical and personal skincare regimen that suits your needs.

Most of the products that I will be reviewing are from the Age-Control Range. They are the Decorin Age-Control Day Cream SPF15, the Decorin Age-Control Night Cream, the Decorin Age-Control Thermal Mask and the Decorin Age-Control Radiance Serum. The Decorin Age-Control (DECO) Collection fights the naturally occurring effects of aging. This advanced anti-aging formula promises to create youthful and healthy looking skin – something which we are all looking for!

I am also trying out their Radiance Care Creamy Milk Cleanser and Radiance Care Clarifying Facial Toner. I will be using these products over the next 2 weeks and will report back to you on my thoughts about their effectiveness and results from using them.
