Sanctuary Spa Hot Sugar Scrub

My love for Sanctuary Spa is only getting stronger and stronger the more products I try. The next product I've tried from them is the Hot Sugar Scrub* from the Daily Spa Escape Body Range. It is a thick clay-like scrub with a unique blend of organic sugar, thermal zeolite and detoxifying Kaolin Clay (bingo!). It is a self heating scrub that works to gently warm, invigorate and purify the skin deep down. . .not to mention exfoliates dead skin cells seriously well! It retails for $19.99 and can be found at Priceline pharmacies. I really love this scrub and it is perfect coming into the warmer seasons when I start waxing more often (yes I get lazy in winter, don't judge me!) and need to refresh my skin. The smell of this product is pleasant, it has a subtle zesty lemon smell to it along with a clay smell. The pot is really big and should last a few months as you only need a 50 cent sized amount!



Mmmm sugar

Now i'm off to go explore their other products! See you next time!

Lanolips - Triple Buttermilk Body Balm

 Enter my international giveaway to win 1 of 4 nail polish bundle packs!

Hello everyone! Today I have another Lanolips product to show you. The Triple Buttermilk Body Balm* is a very rich and nurturing body balm for very dry skin, with a rich nourishing finish. It contains a triple concentration of lanolips signature ultra pure grade lanolin, milk extracts and vitamin E. It leaves a silky protective veil on the skin for ongoing and lasting skin hydration. It is animal cruelty free and contains NO parabens, mineral oils or petrolatum! It has a very strong talcum powder smell which is bad if you don't like that smell but I don't mind it plus the smell diminishes as the balm is absorbed into your skin. It absorbs really quickly by the way which I love about Lanolips. The fact they've managed to combine thick, super hydration balms with fast absorption is great. I hate nothing more than clothes sticking to my skin after moisturiser has been applied but no problems with his product! This product retails for $23.95 for 170ml (available at Myer, David Jones and selected pharmacies).





Straight after product was rubbed into the skin. No oiliness or shininess and looks as if nothing has been applied but skin feels so smooth!

Please let me know if any of you have tried Lanolips as I find it simply divine and is definitely becoming one of my all time favourite brands! Thanks for reading and see you again soon!

Hydra-Oil Replenshing Body Cream & Tissue Oil-Spray

Enter my 500 follower giveaway here to win 7 nail polishes!

Hello everyone! Today I have Hydra-Oil's newest products to show you. The replenishing body cream* (AUD$21.95) and the tissue oil spray* (AUD$16.95), sold exclusively to Coles. There are many benefits to Hydra-Oil - it’s the perfect remedy to drying skin in winter, containing Tri Nano Oil, it acts as a non-greasy emollient and helps with increased skin absorption. It also works to diminish scars, stretch marks and blemishes, makes skin smooth and supple, and hydrates. Containing Argan Oil (which is used in replacement of Vitamin A – following research that it has potential adverse effects on pregnant women and their unborn children), Vitamin E, as well as Chamomile Oil, this beauty must-have offers significant protection against the aging of skin.


Replenishing body cream
This is a very quick absorbing, intensive moisture cream-spray. It leaves skin feeling so smooth and soft. Has a lovely subtle lavender smell. It can target different problems by using it differently. To moisturise dry skin; apply after bathing and massage gently into dry areas. To treat scars, skin blemishes, stretch marks and wrinkled skin; apply twice a day directly onto the areas needing treament. Massage in circular motions. Use for a minimum of 3 months. For stretch marks during pregnancy; apply twice daily from the first trimester until after birth. I particularly used this after a shower and noticed how amazingly soft I feel. I can't stop touching my arm right now as I applied some more! I also really like the way it sprays out of the can like shaving cream. I've never seen a body cream in that consistency and it's really cool!


Tissue Oil Spray
This spray is for the treatment of dehydrated skin, uneven skin tone, mature skin, scar therapy and stretch marks. It works the exact same way as the body cream except this is an oil spray. It smells a bit funny but again it makes the skin feel really soft. This one is a little bit slower to absorb into the skin.

I would definitely recommend the replenishing body cream if you are looking for a moisturiser that is quick to absorb and also helps to restore the appearance of your skin. The only con I can really say is that the smell of the tissue oil isn't very nice and is a bit off-putting from the product. What do you think of these products? Will you pick them up next time you're at Coles? Thanks for reading.
