My Everything…
This day is without a doubt a day where I have really needed to actively seek out my happy place. Cue the violins, please. Computer troubles, unsettled baby dramas, “tween” angst (not me, my daughter), toddler woes, husband… blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Yes, up until I grabbed Trilogy Everything Balm, it appeared that my day was, well and truly, circling the drain.
Admittedly, it hasn’t done a darn thing for my computer, but it has sorted out the baby’s sore bottom, settled the toddler’s itchy bug bites, worked a treat on my 12 year old daughter’s chapped lips and dry elbows, managed to tame that wayward cowlick she was carrying on about, and saved me from later regretting biting off that pain in the butt dry cuticle that was driving me to distraction. Now that I’ve applied the balm to just about everything in my close proximity with a pulse, the stress levels have abated substantially, as I’m surrounded with much happier campers now. As the Trilogy slogan says, “Everything Balm just makes you feel good.”
All my dramas ‘that-have-now-been-nearly-sorted’ aside, do check out this gorgeous, natural fixer upper. Not only is this balm loaded with natural goodness, it is preservative, PEGs, silicone, synthetic colours and fragrances, and paraben free, but is packaged in such an environmentally considerate way as well. Not a single hideously toxic dye is used in the packaging’s printing nor naughty chemicals in the manufacture of it’s recyclable box. It is well and truly, Cleaner, Greener, Healthier Skin Care. Ticks (checks for our North American friends) abound!

You just never know where you’ll end up.
Apologies for the delay in posting my blog entry for today. (cue the violins) I’ve been swamped. It’s been a bit of a crazy day at work and have only just returned to my computer now…
Truth be told… I was busy going for a country drive, attending a hootenanny of a presentation in a most gorgeous country homestead, making gourmet citrus oils and vinegar under the tutelage of an esteemed country chef, wine tasting in the quaintest of vineyards, going for a helicopter ride (as you do), dodging geese poo, and overindulging in a glorious cottage garden picnic lunch while surrounded by the most breathtaking antique roses ever to be seen. Yep, it’s a tough job, but someone’s got to do it.
Sydney Beauty Editors were treated to a divine half day, country “get away” for the relaunch of Garnier Fructis Hair products. As of June 2007, Garnier Fructis is relaunching it’s “Take Care” campaign which is all about strength, health, and shine. New Garnier Fructis actively targets, treats and strengthens all the zones of your hair (the surface, the cuticle, the cortex, and the root). I haven’t yet had the pleasure of sampling the products from this newly renovated brand, but I am looking forward to it, as it’s clear from the launch that the Garnier Fructis range is broadening it’s market. You can be sure to hear more of the Garnier Fructis Relaunch in the coming months. Stay tuned.
As quiet (or not so quiet) as it’s kept, I had a brilliant day. I’m not sure how tomorrow’s day full of chores will ever compare? But, after all, you never know where you’ll end up, do you? *crosses fingers*
What is my beauty world coming to?
Oh, no! Not another thing to prematurely age me, make my skin go even more wonky (as is it’s want), or just freak me out even more! I just had a new product from Clarins cross my desk, that claims to be the pioneer in the Anti-Pollution skincare and makeup arena. CLARINS is set to launch Expertise 3P ™ (Poly Pollution Protection), the most advanced pollution protection available today. I don’t doubt that it is a leader in it’s class ( it may well be the only one in it’s class), as is Clarins’ custom. Don’t get me wrong, I adore Clarins products, absolutely, but I really didn’t need, yet another thing brought to my attention, to give me the “willies”. Eek! Expertise 3P™ is a atomized spray, that is rich in plant extracts prized for their anti-oxidant and anti-pollution properties. Clarins Expertise 3P™ (according to Clarins) “helps to preserve the skin’s youthful qualities while slowing down cellular ageing linked to the harmful effects of all modern pollution. Optimizing the effectiveness of regular skincare products, Expertise 3P™ refreshes the skin, revives the complexion’s radiance and instantly becomes a new youth and beauty protective step to add to the daily skincare routine, for all the family! IF ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVES CAN TRAVEL THROUGH WALLS, IMAGINE THE LONGTERM EFFECTS THEY ARE HAVING ON OUR SKIN!” Oh, Lordy, this might be all I can bare. *reaches frantically for the Expertise 3P™ bottle (knocking over the elderly and small children) and desperately sprays it on*
*takes 3 deep breaths* I’ll let you know how I go.
…Backs out of the blog to go and don her pink bio hazard suit… just to be sure to be sure. Wink.
