Product Review | Omorovicza Miracle Facial Oil
Based on the rich culture of bathing and the thermal baths of Hungary, Omorovicza was born out of one of the most beautiful healing springs in the world.

That's why I couldn't wait to try this so-called 'Miracle Facial Oil'

Product Review | Korres Wild Rose Sleeping Facial
The Philosophy
Korres is a brand who I believe are extremely under the radar. They are a thoughtful, safe, effective brand who pride themselves on their potent ingredients and skincare technology. They focus on 4 areas:
Precious extracts - where they use cold extraction processes, recycle all forms of the plant, and utilitse precious botanicals native to Greece.
Advanced research - where they test the same way pharmaceuticals would test to ensure product safety and efficacy. They also ensure the product has natural ingredients.
Thoughtful formulas - including tests for dermatologists, opthomologists and excluding preservatives by using anti-microbial ingredients
Passion - whether it's for research, ingredients, environment and skin.
Advice | Combat Pollution
On my recent trip to NY, I began to understand the invisible villain that was pollution. Cities in South East Asia have their levels of pollution as well, I find you notice it a lot sooner because the air also feels and looks dirty. When I was NY, the air was a lot dryer and although it looked a lot clearer than countries, like China or Vietnam, there was a certain weight to it. Maybe I'm just used to the crisp air of Sydney. It was through this trip, that I noticed the difference between my skin and the skin of local New Yorkers. (P.S. I know this is a sort of generalisation but there are also numerous cases that support this fact).
