Give weak nails the flick

14 Jun 2011 17:32 PM | Posted by bh'sCarli

If, like me, you’re finding that your weak nails are becoming somewhat of a nuisance this winter (there’s nothing good that can be said about a flaking nail), then we’ve got just the solution for you.

Revitanail Nail Strengthener is a handy-dandy nail treatment that can be used as a top and base coat as well as a strengthener for weak and brittle nails. Used for a period of 25 days, the nail treatment works to harden and protect nails – which means that after just a few weeks of use, you’ll be saying good-bye to peeling, flaking, and splitting nails and hello to longer and stronger nails!

Not entirely convinced? Well, see what our trusty Trial Team had to say about Revitanail Nail Strengthener…

“I must admit to being extremely skeptical that the Revitanail would actually deliver it's claims, but boy was I proven wrong!! Having weak nails that split and break so easily, I have tried many, many nail hardeners that promise so much, but I've never experienced the results that I got from this product. Before I'd begun, one of my nails had split so badly that there was a dent at the top of my nail, due to my picking at my nails, bad habit, I know! Without a lie, after treating my nails, there were no dents to be seen, they were perfectly smooth, and had even noticeably grown in length. They feel stronger, and my nails do not bend due to weakness like they normally do.
I am an extremely happy user of Revitanail, and at $29.95 a bottle, I will be more than happy to be a loyal customer!
Thanks Revitanail, I never dreamed I could have nice nails!” – scentsation.

Much to love about soap

10 Jun 2011 11:19 AM | Posted by Editor

There’s something so pretty about a block of soap. Now before you start wondering how I can find a plain old beige/white/baby pink square visually attractive, I should probably clarify that I’m actually talking about the wrapping that it comes in.

It might be because the manufacturers know that the aforementioned ‘plain Jane’ squares are so, well…boring, that they go to great lengths to make the packaging so pretty. And I, for one, am a sucker for it.

Forget using the soap – my favourite soaps adorn the side of my bath, the window ledge above my kitchen sink – even the corner of my dresser (which clearly has no sink and tap nearby).

Right now the prettiest soaps to land on my desk are the latest in the Crabtree & Evelyn Heritage Soap Collection. In addition to the yummy-smelling variants already available (think Vetiver, Crabapple and Mulberry, and Oatmeal and Wheatgerm), the latest in the line include Almond Milk and Honey, Avocado and Olive Oil, and Black Sea Mud and Seaweed.

Absolutely beautifully wrapped in paper that reflects the key ingredients in the soaps, the soaps themselves are also triple-milled and enriched with nourishing oils to ensure that your skin stays soft and supple.

Which actually poses a bit of a problem for me – I really want to use them for their skin nourishing benefits, but once unwrapped, I can’t go back…

Head to David Jones to pick up all your Crabtree & Evelyn essentials. There’s a half yearly clearance sale on right now, with savings across some great beauty brands, so you’re guaranteed to pick up a beauty bargain!

Ta ta beauties!

I’m jetting off again beauties! This time to London-town! Besides being on the never-ending hunt to snap Alexa Chung in her Brit It-girl amazingness, I’ll also be spending time with family, and researching the best British beauty buys to report back to you lot!

So in true beautyheaven style, I thought I’d take an opportunity to say farewell and share with you a common beauty conundrum that I just knew I’d run into whilst packing for this trip. I know you’ll understand this one…

What is your biggest beauty challenge when packing for a trip?

Stop - and look younger

10 Jun 2011 09:55 AM | Posted by Editor

Being in this gig we like to call beauty, I get to trial more than my fair share of potions, lotions and anti-ageing gadgets. And if a product doesn’t have a point of difference, well…let’s just say it’s pretty easy for it to become lost in the crowd of cosmetics.

That was definitely NOT the case with the latest (and most awesome) anti-ageing gadget I recently tried. It’s called the Stop™ and it's a hand-held, at-home device that works with radio frequency technology (don’t freak out, it just feels like a warm massage on your skin) to stimulate your skin and minimise the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. And trust me beauties, this anti-ageing gadget actually works!

Watch the video above as I demonstrate how the Stop™ works and check out the instant results…

Stay tuned for when I trial the Pose™ - the device designed to minimise cellulite and tighten your trouble spots!
