Exfoliate for radiant skin!

8/05/12 11:53 PM

 Before applying a moisturising cream in the evening – I highly recommend using a gentle face
exfoliator 2 or 3 times per week. Exfoliating helps to remove dead skin cells & daily grime, boosts
circulation and leaves your skin brighter & cleaner.

Some face scrubs are really rough on your skin and may cause micro tears to the skin surface,
causing problems not solving them.

But our Gentle Face Exfoliator is exactly that – gentle! It’s made with spherical jojoba beads to
gently roll over the skin and buff and polish without disturbing your skins natural barrier.

A huge advantage to exfoliating is that moisturiser absorption is greatly improved. I recommend
exfoliating at night time & following with our intense treatment moisturiser Dream Cream for a
really radiant skin! I promise you will really notice the difference! 


Suitable for all skin types except sensitive. For sensitive skins we recommend our cleanser used in
conjunction with our special cleansing cloth which gives a very gently daily exfoliation with each use
of the cloth.

How to slow the clock..

23/04/12 9:56 PM

We're all concerned with fine lines and wrinkles, that's nothing new!  But did you know by faithfully using: 

the RIGHT product and

the RIGHT amount in

the RIGHT way

you WILL reduce dryness and plump up the skin to help minimise the appearance of fine lines!

Let’s consider the eye area. The skin is thin and delicate and has fewer oil glands to hydrate the area -

which is why fine lines appear here first. Makes sense! So it also makes sense to use an eye cream to

protect this precious skin for a more youthful appearance (and who doesn't want that!)

With regular use (2 x daily) of our Essential Eye Cream - note the essential, it really is - you can help keep

this area hydrated.

Full of active ingredients to provide all the vital nutrients needed:

Rose hip oil (helps improve skin elasticity), Carrot infused oil & Palmarosa Essential Oil (help hydrate and stimulate cell growth & Natural source Vitamin E (important antioxidant and protector). Just to name a few!

 

RIGHT product – Essential Eye Cream


RIGHT amount – 1 pump

 

RIGHT way – 2 x daily after cleansing & toning,

                       gently pat around eye socket area.

 

 

Regular use will see results!  (And of course this product is certified organic)

Banana Buttermilk Hotcakes with Kaffir Lime Syrup

Banana buttermilk hotcakes with kaffir lime syrup

Preparation Time: 10 minutes, Cooking Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients (serves 6)

225g (1 1/2 cups) self-raising flour
1 tbs caster sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
250ml (1 cup) Dairy Farmers buttermilk
2 ripe bananas, peeled, mashed
2 eggs, lightly whisked
1 x 400ml can coconut milk
100g (1/2 cup, firmly packed) brown sugar
4 fresh kaffir lime leaves, coarsely shredded
Melted butter, to grease
Fresh kaffir lime leaves, extra, coarsely shredded, to serve
Lime wedges, to serve
Vanilla ice-cream, to serve

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 100°C. Combine the flour, caster sugar and cinnamon in a large bowl. Make a well in the centre. Whisk together the buttermilk, banana and egg in a jug. Gradually add the buttermilk mixture to the flour mixture, whisking constantly until a smooth batter forms. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside for 20 minutes to rest.

  2. Meanwhile, combine the coconut milk, brown sugar and lime leaves in a medium saucepan over high heat. Bring to the boil. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until the sauce thickens slightly. Remove from heat and discard the lime leaves. Transfer to a jug.

  3. Brush a large non-stick frying pan with a little of the melted butter to lightly grease and heat over medium heat. Pour two 60ml (1/4-cup) quantities of batter into the pan, allowing room for spreading. Cook for 1 1/2-2 minutes or until bubbles appear on the surface and pancakes are golden underneath. Turn and cook for a further 1 minute or until golden. Transfer to a heatproof plate and cover loosely with foil. Place in oven to keep warm. Repeat, in 5 more batches, with the remaining melted butter and batter, reheating the pan between batches.

  4. Divide the hotcakes among serving plates. Drizzle over the kaffir lime syrup and top with extra lime leaves. Serve immediately with lime wedges and ice-cream, if desired.
