L’Occitaine dance into the new season
Every Christmas day I look forward to opening the special present chosen for me by my sister-in-law. I know exactly what it will be, but that doesn’t make it any less welcome or exciting. In fact, it couldn’t be more perfect, because Lina takes a trip to luxurious bath and beauty brand L’Occitaine, and always gets me one of their beautiful gift boxes.

Beauty Review – Antipodes Divine Face Oil
I love discovering new products and new brands, especially when it comes to beauty and skincare. This year I seem to have paid even more attention to my skin than usual, possibly due to a big birthday I have coming up next month – hitting the big 4-0. It is as if I have suddenly realised that you truly only have one skin, and therefore need to take extra time looking after it. The Divine Face Oil by Antipodes in Organic Avocado oil and Rosehip is the newest wonder product I have added to my bathroom shelf, and it is a product that I take no time in recommending.
