Look at my hands after applying Anti aging Support Creme can you see how the hand on the left is a lot smoother hydrated even? The veins are not popping out on it at all, it feels so lovely and soft too. As for the other hand it is in dire need of some Abeeco!  In my opinion $38 well spent

I have also started using the Royal Eye Creme  it features Royal Jelly (traditionally known to promote youthful skin) which is  believed to of been a favourite beauty secret of Cleopatra’s. Royal Jelly is one of nature’s most nutritious ingredients. It is fed to the queen bee to extend her life and is packed with 134 nutrients, including 17 amino acids, B-vitamins and vitamins A, C, D and K.  Other key ingredients in Royal Eye Creme  are Jojoba Seed Oil, Manuka Honey, Water, Sweet Almond Oil, Cocoa Butter, Aloe Vera Extract, Lanolin and Vitamin E. Another good point is I see some eye creams on the market that contain Essential Oils which in my opinion is a big NO NO this eye cream has no essential oils whatsoever. Some eye creams can either be too dense resulting in an oil film over the eye which is quite irritating or just not hydrating enough resulting in tightness.

 This eye cream was not to heavy nor light for the delicate eye area, the balance is just right, I hate it when you use a product and when you blink you can feel exactly where you have applied it which is  not the case when using Royal Eye Creme. $36 for an eye cream in my opinion is pretty good, especially when you only need to apply it sparingly. I am about to turn 32, I have been using an eye cream since I was 12 ( so I know a good one when I use it )  I know a lot of you probably think 12 is too early but I have NO regrets I have amazing looking skin around my eyes I am constantly getting compliments on how my face ( especially around my eyes ) is so smooth and wrinkle free. I credit this to looking after myself ( sunscreen, water, diligent  skincare routine, I cleanse tone and moisturise morning and night. I also religiously wear sunglasses outdoors even on dreary days )  I am sharing a picture of my eye after applying the Royal Eye Creme I am smiling in this pic and you cannot even tell! See there is method to my madness

Made from their  in house cold process goatsmilk soap formula, they are very creamy and moisturising. Each soap looks like it has yummy icing or some style of dessert draped over the top of it, but of course it is only soap. A green gum leaf  with red holly berries ( to add contrast ) is piped on top because Platypus Dreams are situated in Australia after all.

This pudding is scented with Cranberries and Pomegranate with notes of sparkling champagne and the lightest hint of spice way in the background. It is one of their in house blends just for Christmas. Each Christmas Pudding Soap has been wrapped with the utmost care by hand and comes with it’s own Festive Christmas style tag and trimmings. These are excellent for the person who has everything or you just don’t know what to give them.

Who like myself is GUILTY of  neglecting there feet?

Being a mother of 2 who is constantly on the go, by the end of the day my feet are sore, swollen and dry. I don’t have the time, money or inclination to hang out at Day Spas getting a pedicure ( and even when I have in the past I’ve  left very disappointed )  Lucky for me my mum is in town ( she has magic fingers and we bond over her rubbing my tootsies ) Reading  this you can understand why I was really happy to receive a package from  umm…PR containing a sample of  ARBONNE FC5 Cooling Foot Creme.

Arbonne’s formula combines fresh cell nutrients to nuture abused feet, including fresh kiwi cells and a moisture fresh complex of cucumber, birch leaf, watercress, clover blossom, avocado oil and shea butter.

Ok so not only does this foot cream smell uplifting it made my foot feel like it had a “halo of  tingling cool” surrounding it. It truly lives up to claims. My feet were hydrated, soft and had forgiven me for  the “hell” I had put them through earlier that day. I really liked that it is non greasy and even more importantly that the person rubbing my  feet is not put off by it  as well.  My mum really liked the feel of the cream on her hands and the smell too . I managed to get 3 x foot rubs using only 15ml ( lucky me )

Arbonne retails @ a RRP of $30 for 118ml

Click here for further information on Arbonne and there full range of products .

In a nutshell I would buy this cream either for myself or as a gift. I think it would be a lovely gift idea this Valentines Day. ( Hint Hint To my lovely husband if you are reading this )

Susan generously sent me samples of the three soaps featured in the giveaway & I loved them all. The Autumn soap is made using real pumpkin puree. The result is a scent full of warmth & fall spices, including cinnamon & nutmeg. Grace is another fantastic scent, but this one is a bit more floral. My personal favorite is the Caffe soapthat smells of freshly brewed morning coffee. This soap is perfect for mornings where you need a big pick me up!
