Coolest Find of the month - July

Sorry that I have been away for so long! It's been a combination of laziness, life stress and socialcam addiction.

Not to worry because I have a friend from socialcam that showed off his Remix Watch and I was instantly intrigued. Basically he was showing off his outfit of the night which included this watch that lights up with different colours. It's a flashing LED light and perfect to make a statement in the clubs. I absolutely love the idea of my watch flashing ALL the colours so I had to check it out.

The great thing about this watch is that you can pop out the face of the watch and switch it over to another coloured band. That means over 100 colour combinations! It's also unisex and waterproof.

There are currently 2 different sets on sale. The time bomb collection features the standard face with LED illumination. There is currently 12 different bands on offer with prices US$44.95-$49.95.

The Rox collection features the analog face with encrusted Swarovski crystals. I personally liked this collection more as I liked the crystals on the face of the watch. It comes in 11 colours at US$54.95. I bought a pink and white watch from this collection.

In addition to this, Remix Watches currently have their plain bands on special for US$9.95 down from $19.95. In order to mix up your watches, you'd have to buy a few plain bands. I bought black, purple and red to mix with my pink and white faces.

I managed to find a discount code that worked - FOLLOW25. This gave me 25% off the total and somehow managed to score free shipping to Australia. The store is based in the US and it states free domestic shipping so wasn't sure if my total was a mistake but I'll take it!

Will most likely post some vids up on my socialcam when I receive the watches. Am very excited and thought it was a reasonably priced watch with a funky look.

Hope you liked this watch special! I think it's a good gift idea if you are stuck for a present :)

Coolest Find of the Month - June

So it's winter time here in Perth and that means more and more hot showers leaving your skin dry and in much need of moisturization.

I discovered Goat soap and started to research the benefits of using this soap. I have found that it maintains moisture in my skin and I am not left with dry skin. Winter is one of the worst months to maintain moisture in the skin because more people tend to take more hot showers and this means your skin is prone to dryness.

Benefits of using products with Goat's Milk

• Goat's milk soap has proteins that kill bacteria that produces acne. It would be a natural alternative to mainstream products that may contain many harsh chemicals
• It contains many vitamins that help to nourish your skin and maintain it's health. Vitamins include A, C, E, B1, B6 and B12.
• Because goat's milk does not contain harsh chemicals, it is beneficial for those of sensitive skins or those with skin conditions such as eczema. It reduces skin irritations or itchiness.
• Goat's milk reduces the signs of aging and reduces wrinkles based on the skin repairing components that the vitamins provide.
• The creamy components from goat's milk helps your skin from going dry and promotes moisture in your skin.
• Goat's milk has a pH level which is close to human's pH level. This means that it allows nutrients to enter our skin, reduces drynesss whilst also preventing chemicals or bacteria entering the skin.
• Due to it containing hydra-alphoxy acids, this helps promotes skin rejuvenation meaning that it also helps in removing dead skin cells.

Those were just some of the benefits I found online but there is so much Goat's milk can offer in maintaining natural, soft looking skin and preventing your skin from aging faster. You can even drink Goat's milk if you really wanted to :)

My bar of soap had Lemon Myrtle which is a plant that is abundant is South Queensland. It really does have a fresh lemon scent which I found comes from the leaves of the plant.

So I bought my bar of soap for $3.99 for Chemist Warehouse from a company called core-metrics. They don't sell it off their website so I can only assume this is sold in chemists or pharmacies around Australia.

Here are some other sites I found that sell Goat's Milk soap online:

Billy Goat Soap - $8.95

Goat Milk Stuff - As low as US $3.95 - liked this site very much because of the flavour range with so many choices!

Sassy Goat Milk Shop - as low as US$4.00

The Karma Soap Company - $6.00 - like the offer of a $5 voucher just for subscribing, so essentially you pay $1 for testing the soap

Goat's Milk Soap Creations - $4.95

Moogoo - $6.90

As far as I could tell, most of these companies shipped internationally and I usually list items in Australian dollars unless otherwise specified. I have got to say there are so many companies out there offering handmade goat's milk soap! I guess it's finding what product suits you best and the customer service from that seller. I think it is reasonably priced and I think the benefits are remarkable for moisturizing your skin.

I wanted to share the label on my soap because I thought it was cute! Orangutang safe LOL!

Coolest Find of the Month - March

This month I bring you Glossy Box. It is a slowly growing trend that is a great concept for all Men and Women.

Glossy Box is a product sample box delivered to your home every month for $14.95. They also do a men's product box for $19.95 per month.

I believe this is a great way to test products that you might not be aware of or if you were a bit hesitant to buy something, get the option to try it out first. Plus, it comes in a nicely packaged box which I'm sure you can store all your beauty products in.

Each month you get sent 5 sample products and by completing a beauty profile, Glossy Box will attempt to send you products based on your needs. For men, they receive 6-8 products to sample. The range of products are listed on the website and you can also see past beauty product boxes sent.

Also, by referring friends and completing the survey (that is sent every month based on your products), you earn glossy points and if you earn 1000 glossy points you get your next box free!

The also great thing about this, is that if you like the product you can go to the brands listing on the website and click on the links to buy the products.

Also, If you redeem this voucher code PPGLOSSY12, you will receive 50% off your first Glossy Box. Can't say when it will expire but I have used it and it worked fine for me.

So sign up! Refer your friends! And Enjoy!
