BOOK REVIEW – HENRY THE GRASSHOPPER AND THE PINEAPPLE JUICE ADVENTURE BY DAN SKILL

BOOK REVIEW – HENRY THE GRASSHOPPER AND THE PINEAPPLE JUICE ADVENTURE BY DAN SKILL Even though restrictions have eased slightly lately, most of us as parents are still spending plenty of our time at home with the kids with home schooling still very much in full swing! Any parent knows all too well the challenges that come with keeping the little ones entertained. This has proven especially hard lately with #isolation and strict stay at home restrictions firmly in place. My three, Imbi 9, Rory 6 and Kyan 1 and a half are handling the situation really well, although they’re missing their school mates (I’ve recently learned what Zoom is as they begged me to let them face time their friends). Like normal siblings they fight and to be

FRESCA – 100% NATURAL AUSTRALIAN DEODORANT

FRESCA – 100% NATURAL AUSTRALIAN DEODORANT “You only get one body in this lifetime. You need to look after it, nurture it and love it as best you can.” This quote by Fresca founder Elda Kingston rings so incredibly true to me and I am sure many can relate. Particularly considering the uncertain crazy time we find ourselves living in so far in 2020! If ever we needed reminding that life is short, our bodies are not invincible and we do actually have some control in taking care of ourselves and potentially prolonging our lives for as long as possible, then this is that time! Fresca are very conscious of what they put into their products and how harmful chemical ingredients can be to our bodies over time. These deodorants

SHAMPOO WITH A PURPOSE – THE OG & VOLUME SHAMPOO BARS

SHAMPOO WITH A PURPOSE – THE OG & VOLUME SHAMPOO BARS There is no doubt minimalism is no longer taking precedence in peoples lives. Becoming more minimal and reducing personal waste consumption is the now and in this new decade beginning in 2020, we (well a large population of us at least)  as the biggest polluters of the past are changing our ways and taking responsibility for ourselves and our future. It makes me feel really good about myself when I discover a product such as Shampoo With A Purpose’s Shampoo Bar’s. This brand has it so right! From minimal, recyclable packaging, being cruelty free and vegan to sulphate, paraben and palm oil free ingredients. I’m no rebel. I like to do what is ethically right whenever I can.
