March/April Empties

Pangea Organics Lip Balm in Egyptian Fennel with Grapefruit & Sweet Orange - I love the mildly scented and ultra-hydrating properties of this organic-based lip balm as it softens and soothes dry and chapped lips.

Dermalogica PreCleanse - Is a must-have in my skin care regime as cleansing the skin twice thoroughly removes residues which adhere strongly to the skin and inside pores.

Clinique Quickliner for Eyes - Smudge-proof and lasting eyeliner for the eyes, Clinique Quickliner enhances the eyes without any fuss.

Grown Facial Exfoliant with Peppermint, Jojoba Micro Bead and Juniper Berry - Grown skin care products are one of my favourite skin care brands! Grown Facial Exfoliant gently polishes my skin leaving it feel smooth and soft.

Pantene Pro-V All Day Smooth Leave in Crème - This hair care product  reminds me of hair treatment masks, however, you massage the creme through your hair and leave it in so hair stays hydrated and nourished through the day.

 

L'Occitane Lavande Body and Massage Gel - The scents of lavender helps to make me feel relaxed and revitalised. This body and massage gel is the perfect product for pampering the body.

L'Occitane Delice Des Fleurs EDT - A soft musk rose scent which is light and feminine, perfect for those who love soft floral scents.

Natural Secrets Goat Milk Hand and Body Cream - Goats Milk is ultra gentle for sensitive, dry and eczema-prone skin. This hand and body cream feels lovely on my skin and leaves my skin feeling soothed, soft and smooth.

Klorane Extra Gentle Dry Shampoo with Oat Milk - I'm not sure how I've accumulated so many travel sized bottles of Klorane Dry Shampoo, but anyhow, this product is gentle to my scalp and is effective in keeping my hair in good and clean condition.

The Secret of Goat's Milk by Natural Secrets

Did you know that Goat's Milk (a.k.a. Caprae Lac) is one of the best remedies to relieve and reduce the effect of eczema, dry skin, irritated skin and problematic skin conditions? Not only is Goat's Milk beneficial for skin conditions, it is also a great alternative to regular soap to smooth skin leaving it feel soft and supple - this explains why Cleopatra used to bathe in a tub filled with milk as a moisturising aid to keep her skin looking lovely. 

Natural Secrets is an Australian based company which produces and stock a wide range of Goats Milk Skin Care products. Goat's Milk is a natural ingredient that can be found in a range of soap and skin care products to nourish while improve skin texture. Natural Secrets Goats Milk Skin Care products are:

• Australian made and environmentally friendly
• Enriched with Vitamins A, C,D and some B's which are powerful antioxidants (about 50% more Vitamin A than Cow's Milk)
• Enriched with Amino Acids and Zinc, which facilitates the production of collagen
• Enriched with Milk Proteins which help to kill acne-causing bacteria, Lactic Acid which provides alpha-hydroxy (AHAs) benefits and prevents the build-up of dead skin cells
• NOT tested on animals
• Sodium Lauryl Sulfate-free
• Paraben-free
• Phosphate-free
• Petro-chemical-free

My main skin concern is dryness due to the harsh environment and sometimes lack of body hydration. Goats Milk Moisturising Hand Cream (A$6.95/80ml) and Hand & Body Cream (sample size shown in photo) are both lightweight, hydrating and moisturising creams which feels really great on my skin. To keep my skin feeling silky smooth and supple, I apply the cream twice a day, after my morning shower and before I go to bed. Due to the lightweight consistency of the cream it actually absorbs quickly in a matter of seconds. 

Natural Secrets Moisturising Soap (A$3.60/100g) is an excellent alternative to my everyday bar of soap as the creamy and super moisturising soap made from Goats Milk feels so gentle and nourishing against my skin. Even though this is a bar of Goats Milk soap it seems a LOT like a moisturiser! It melts in my hand, however, it does not dissolve quickly like a regular bar of soap, so in my opinion it lasts longer under the condition that you leave it in a well drained soap dish. Goats Milk soap from Natural Secrets may seem a little bit more expensive than regular soap, however, once you get the feel of Goats Milk soap you will get hooked!

Natural Secrets is available at Priceline and selected Pharmacies nationally. For more information please see Natural Secret's website here and/or view their Facebook page here and Twitter here.
