how to STORE YOUR SHEETS

2012-02-02T15:20:00.000+11:00

I love this idea of storing your sheets inside the pillowcase.

I must say I am going to do this I will show before and after pics to see if it gives me more space in the linen press.

Don't let your matching sheets get lost in the linen closet. Use this simple trick: Tuck the sheet set inside one of its pillowcases, and then stack according to size (twin, full, queen, king) or by the room you use the sheets in (master bedroom, guest room.)

3 ways JUMP-START YOUR ENERGY

2012-01-31T15:31:00.000+11:00

Power up with protein ~ to maximise energy, eat healthy protein with every meal and snack. Protein satisfies and stabilises your blood sugar, insulin and energy levels.

Let it be ~ Stress zaps energy, but ignoring stressful thoughts and feelings can keep them alive. If you acknowledge them, they are easier to let go. This mindfulness exercise can help: take some slow breaths and focus on the parts of your body that feel tense. Next concentrate on the thoughts that are making you tense. As each thought comes to you, acknowledge it and then picture it floating away on a leaf down a stream.

Get some mountain air ~ A simple yoga breathing exercise, the mountain pose, helps calm your mind and recharge your batteries. Stand with your feet hip width apart, arms by your sides. Close your eyes, take 3 natural breaths, then open your eyes. As you inhale, sweep your arms out to the sides and up, until your palms touch each other overhead.

Lift and expand your chest as you breathe in. Hold the breath for 2 seconds as you gaze up at your hands. Exhale and sweep your arms back down to your sides. As you breathe out, draw your belly in towards your spine. Hold the exhalation for 2 seconds, eyes straight ahead. Repeat 6 times.

Do you feel melancholy when another year has started and the kids are back at school? I am excited for them going back to school, but will miss having them home. I still believe your school years are some of the best years of your life. I loved school and was always excited to go. We lived in the country on a property so school was our social outlet as we did not tend to do too much with friends on weekends or holidays except for the occasional sleepover. I used to have to travel 45 minutes on the bus to get to school. It was fun, the bus trips were always entertaining. What are your favourite memories from your school years?

calm down DEEP BREATHING

2012-01-30T15:11:00.000+11:00

'Deep breathing is free, and it's right under your nose!'

BREATHE EASY ~ We have all been told to 'take a deep breath'. It is recommended that we take that advice with this 4-7-8 breath exercise. Doing this daily will induce a feeling of serenity and over time it will give you greater emotional resilience-especially during difficult moments.

1. Rest the tip of your tongue on the roof of your mouth, just behind your top teeth.

2. Exhale completely through the mouth, with your lips tightly pursed, to make a whoosh sound.

3. Close your mouth and inhale deeply and slowly through your nose for a silent count of 4.

4. Keep your mouth closed and gently hold your breath for a silent count of 7.

5. Exhale slowly through your open mouth for a count of 8, making the same whoosh sound.

6. Repeat steps 3,4 and 5 for a total of four breaths. Perform this twice daily for optimal results.

2012-01-30T11:09:00.000+11:00

White Tea is the new wrinkle remedy. According to a study white extract contains compounds that can

block the effects of inflammation associated with premature ageing,as well as many health conditions

including cancer, arthritis and diabetes. White tea contains less caffeine than green tea and has a milder

sweeter tast. Enjoy a cup of white tea without milk.

There are 3 main varieties:~

Silver Needle - the highest quality of the white teas which is made from the buds only.

White Peony - contains both the buds and leaves which is stronger in taste than the silver needle.

Long Life Eyebrow - Made from the leftover leaves after the harvest.

back to school ~ PARENTS SHOULD KNOW

2012-01-28T17:30:00.001+11:00

Healthy food helps learning ~ without a healthy breakfast, kids cannot concentrate and

can become disruptive. A healthy lunch is just as important to help kids survive the afternoon.

Kids need help with homework ~ where possible create a set routine.

Refuel with a healthy snack when the student get home. Then sit down together

to complete the set tasks. As it gets later the children tend to get tired.

Proper sleep habits are critical ~ children are going to school tired after late nights.

Parents can support good sleeping habits by enforcing mobile phones and social media are

switched off at night. Ending screen time at least 30 minutes before bedtime and ensuring

they are in bed at a regular time.

Children need help being organised ~ Being organised makes the day better for both children and teachers.

Teachers appreciate a child who is organised. You can help kids get organised by:

+ Creating a family calendar so everyone can see what's on each week.

For young children, use visual symbols.

+ Once at home, unpack your child's school bag together and discuss what is on for the next day.

Get your child to put their school shoes in the same place every afternoon.

+ Always pack the school bag and prepare the uniform the night before.

+ Ask your child question's such as, 'What do you need tomorrow?'

go-to gear, multitasking secrets, and enviable decor.

At home with Jenne Lombardo ~

Before creating her own brand-building empire, The Terminal Presents, Jenne Lombardo masterminded Fashion Week’s brilliant partnership between M.A.C. & Milk (which she still oversees). Known for her fierce style—leather pants, six-inch platforms, and heavy-metal jewellery—this super-organized mother of three gracefully switches from reading bedtime stories to walking red carpets, while managing to make it all look easy.

At home with Meredtith Kahn ~

Meredith Kahn is the genius behind highly-coveted jewelry and handbag line, Made Her Think. Her long list of devoted fans flock to her collection for a dose of hard-edged femininity (think double-knuckle rings made of rose gold and diamonds). The designer, four-months pregnant with her second child, invites us into her light-filled Brooklyn apartment, while daughter Grayson plays hostess. The bilingual three-year-old shows us her ballet moves, while helping mom prepare heart-shaped eggs.

Friendship ~ true friends are hard to find. Over the years I have made friends with my daughters school friends parents. They have come and gone. When my eldest started school I had formed, I thought, a really close knit bond with a few mother's. We did stay friends for the whole 7 years but where are they know. I am no longer in contact with these lovely ladies. I have tried but only to have calls not returned. Over the years I have a few close friends but only one that I truly confide in.

I wonder what will happen when my daughters finish school will the stay friends with whom they have become really close with over the years (some they have known since they were in pre-school). I think they have an advantage over myself. As I moved around a bit and spent my high school years in the country. I am still in contact with a few and thank you to facebook I can still keep in contact. I hope my daughters will find it easier. I tell them that you have to work hard at keeping your friendships.

I would love to know your friendship values and how you make friends and keep them near.

10 ways to WHINGE LESS & BE HAPPIER

2012-01-25T10:38:00.002+11:00

Proverb : ~ 'Instead if complaining that the rose bush is full of thorns, BE HAPPY THE THORN BUSH HAS ROSES'

We all complain. Even if you argue that you are the happiest person in the world, you still complain sometimes.

Sometimes we complain without even realizing it, but rarely is it ever helpful. Sure, a common complaint can bond two people who may have nothing in common, but too much complaining would just break down the relationship.

No matter what I said or did, it never seemed to cheer her up. There is no arguing that she was going through a tough time, but her negative attitude certainly made matters worse. Eventually we grew apart because it was more than I could handle at the time.

So what happens if you are the one stuck in the negative attitude? We’ve all been there. I know I sure have. There are days when everything seems to go wrong and complaining is the easiest thing to do.

It’s easier to complain instead of fixing a problem, like quitting a job or having a talk with someone. But I find that when you put your mind toward a more positive outlook and force yourself to end complaining, it is possible!

Here are some tips to stop complaining and ditch the negative thoughts to focus on finding solutions:

1. Change the way you think.

This is definitely easier said than done. Our brains tend to gravitate towards the negative.. Much like the quote above, we are bothered first by the thorns in the rose bush instead of being marveled by the sight of the beautiful roses.

This requires a new practice of being mindful. When you find yourself thinking or saying a negative comment about something or someone, stop and force yourself to say something positive instead. Enlist the help of a cheerful friend to stop you when you complain and help you to see the positive in the situation.

2. Allow yourself to vent every once in a while.

Constantly ignoring your negative thoughts could add up. If you are really going through a rough time, don’t be afraid to share your feelings with a close friend or family member or see a therapist. Don’t feel ashamed if you need to talk through negative feelings.

3. Practice yoga.

Yoga is a great way to exercise, relax, and learn to be mindful. Yoga focuses on breathing, movement, and meditation and helps you to control your mind and body. Our minds often race in a million directions. Yoga can help you calm your racing thoughts and be more positive with your intentions.

4. Train yourself to be less judgmental.

We often complain about others because we think they are not up to our standards. Once you stop judging people without knowing their stories, you will most likely complain less about the things people do. It takes 21 days to change a habit.

5. Make a list of things you’re grateful for.

Stopping for a minute and thinking of all the great things and amazing people in your life will probably put any silly complaints you had to rest.

6. Be the change you wish to see in the world.

Next time you’re with your friends, family, or co-workers and engaged in a complaint fest, speak up or quiet down. Depending on the crowd, either speak up to stop the complaining and change the subject to something sunnier or simply be quiet and don’t complain yourself.

7. Accept responsibility.

If something is bothering you, either fix it or accept that nothing can be done right now, so why complain? Complaining is a passive activity. Change that complaining into action to solve the problem or simple accept it and give your mind something else to focus on.

8. Find what makes you happy.

Sometimes this list can be easy, full of hobbies you enjoy. Sometimes it requires deeper introspection. Are you constantly complaining about your job? Maybe it is time to make the hard decision to move on to another job or career. Uncover what your biggest complaints are about and see if you can change the situation to make you happy.

9. Take care of yourself.

Stress and a busy lifestyle can often take over our lives and break down anyone’s positive spirit. Take time out from your life for just you. Make sure you get to see that movie you were dying to watch, take a hot bath, head to your exercise class, get a manicure, play sports, or do whatever relaxes and energizes you. It could just put you in a new frame of mind.

10. Simply ask yourself when you open your mouth: would you rather complain or be happy?

Choose happiness, focusing on the positive, and being kind always! It is your choice and no one else’s.

What is your foolproof way to stop complaining?

how to FOUNDATION

2012-01-24T12:19:00.003+11:00

The right foundation will even out your skin tone and give you the appearance of flawless skin.

Follow these steps:

Find your perfect match

- Best done in a department store where you can get a makeup artist to match your shade.

- Ask for samples and try them at home and in different lights.

- Test it on your jawline - the right shade will sink right in and you won¹t be able to see the foundation on your skin.

- If your body is darker than your face don’t be tempted to buy a darker shade, you can boost the colour later with bronzer.

If in doubt, buy the two closest shades to your complexion and mix them. Your skin changes colour throughout the year so you¹ll have options.

- Avoid buying any foundation with a pink undertone, it never looks natural. Golden undertones are better.

- The most popular is a dewy liquid as women find it easiest to apply and it looks most natural. If you like more coverage try a cream. I like Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk foundation – it’s pricey but worth the investment, people always comment on my skin when I wear it. MAC Face and Body is another awesome product – it’s quite a light coverage but lovely and luminous – you won’t find a makeup artist without this in their kit. For a budget-friendly option Revlon Colorstay is great.

It's all in the preparation

- Just like with painting a wall or icing a cake, you want the surface to be as smooth as possible.

- Cleanse to remove any oil or old makeup and if you have time use a facial scrub, it will give you a natural glow that will show through your foundation.

- Apply sunscreen, a light moisturiser (not a night cream which will leave a greasy residue) or a primer (like Napoleon Perdis Autopilot) but never all at once - give it a few minutes to sink in and you’re perfectly primed.

Lay the foundations

- Apply a small amount, starting from the nose and blending out from the middle of the face. You don’t need to cover the whole face, just the red, blotchy areas.

- Makeup artist like to use brushes, I like fingers. They warm the product up and you can really massage it into the skin. The Beauty Blender sponge is a clever little tool that helps blend and can give a photo-shopped finish.
- Beware the tide mark! Always check the sides of your face and under your chin, making sure you blend foundation into the temples and hairline.

- Dot a creamy highlighting concealer under the eyes (Try YSL Touche Eclat or Laura Mercier Secret Concealer) and a more chalky, powdery concealer for any spots. A small concealer brush or cotton tip is handy to stop bacteria from your fingers getting into the blemish. Powder over the top of the spot to keep the concealer in place. (Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer Kit has a powder in the bottom which is handy)

- Apply a luminising cream to cheat radiance - I like Nars The Multiple in Copacabana or Maldives. Dab it onto cheekbones and brow bones and blend.

- If you want it to stay all day, use a little translucent powder – just over your T-zone or it will look too matte. Dust it on with a big round circular brush. You can add powder bronzer after you powder to warm your skin up.

- Mineral makeup is great for super sensitive, acneic skins and after cosmetic treatments, but it can be fiddly. You need a kabuki brush, which is a thick, stumpy brush with tightly packed bristles. Tap out some of the product into the lid and swirl the brush in the powder. Blow excess off and blend into skin in circular motions. Youngblood and Inika make good ones.

Liquid mineral foundations are easier but hard to find - I love Dermaquest Breathable Coverage SPF 30 - as it’s my foundation and sunscreen in one.

Sigourney’s top tips:

1. Just like with painting a wall or icing a cake, you want the surface to be as smooth as possible, so use a scrub before you apply any base to give you a natural glow that will show through your foundation.

2. Apply it in small dots, starting from the nose and blending out from the middle of the face. You don’t need to cover the whole face, just the red, blotchy areas.

3. Makeup artist like to use brushes, I like fingers. They warm the product up and you can really massage it into the skin. The Beauty Blender sponge is a clever little tool that helps blend and can give a photo-shopped finish.

4. Always conceal after foundation - use a creamy highlighting concealer under the eyes (Try YSL Touche Eclat or Laura Mercier Secret Concealer) and a more chalky, powdery concealer for any spots (Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer Kit has a powder in the bottom which is handy). A small concealer brush or cotton tip is handy to stop bacteria from your fingers getting into the blemish.

5. Apply a luminising cream to cheat radiance – I like Nars The Multiple in Copacabana or Maldives. Dab it onto cheekbones and brow bones and blend. It gives you that ‘I-just-had-a-facial’ glow, no salon appointment necessary!

2012-01-24T09:45:00.003+11:00

- one week until my princesses return back to school :(

Yes, that is a sad face. I am one of those mothers that love having her daughters around and gets emotional as

another school year commences. My eldest is heading into her two final years at school, OMG, I cannot believe it. Year 11 such a big year ahead. Lots of hard work and fun to be had. Maybe working out exactly what she would like to do with her life, but hopefully not in a hurry to move out.

My youngest is going into year 8. What a strong personality she has and I am grateful for, although I can be at the other end occasionally. A strong personality can allow you stick up for yourself when certain types of friends turn against you for doing the right thing. Can I just say the bullies are just jealous and seriously have a lot of growing up to do.

Wishing both my gorgeous daughters a happy, fun, exciting year back at school. I love you both to the moon and back, or as a certain precious little boy would say 'love you to infinity and beyond'.

Enjoy your day. V xx

natural ways to boost your ENERGY

2012-01-23T14:50:00.004+11:00

Do you lack energy in the afternoon?

I know I do every now and again and I need a huge energy boost.

Here are some great ideas from The Style Net.

We are not super human beings and every now and then we all experience an energy slump.

We have put together 10 natural, simple and free ways to boost your energy levels and increase your

productivity:

1. Open a window.
Get some fresh air, if this is not possible, turn on a fan or take a quick 5 minute walk outside your office.

2. Stay organised.
Cluttered environments zap our energy and create frustration when we can’t find things.

Clean it up and clear your mind.

3. Take two minutes to sit and breathe.
Deep breathing helps to reduce stress and therefore fatigue. Increase the level of oxygen in your
blood and calm your mind for just a few minutes and you will notice the positive effects immediately.

4. Put the sugar in your bin.
Increased sugar levels will lead to fluctuations in energy and ultimately have a negative effect. Bin it!

5. Eat regularly throughout the day.
East consistently, and choose whole grains and natural energy foods.

6. Prioritise your day.
Schedule a ‘to-do’ list the evening before, and start the day with the hardest/most important task first.
And once that is done, the rest of the day will be an enjoyable breeze!

7. Exercise.
A no brainer and yet few of us do this everyday. Most research suggests it is best to exercise

in the morning, but I find this almost impossible with my schedule and I prefer to exercise at night.
I think as long as you are fitting in at least 20 minutes per day your body and mind will thank you for it.

8. Sleep!
We generally need 7-8 hours of uninterrupted sleep to function at our best. Don’t build up a sleep debt.

how to SUMMER HAIR

2012-01-22T14:43:00.001+11:00

Get Protection ~ Just like skin, your hair burns. This leaves it prone to colour fade. Use a leave in

conditioner with UV protection. Always use colour care shampoo and conditioner.

Fight Frizz ~ Frizz happens then your hair is dry and the humidity is high. Thirsty hair sucks on

the airs moisture to compensate, resulting in frizz. Hydrating shampoo ad conditioner help. Blot wet

hair with kitchen paper towel to absorb water, then use a smoothing product before and after styling.

Prevent an oily scalp ~ Your hair may seem oilier in summer as you are more active. This can stimulate

sebum production. Use oil-control shampoo and conditioner and use dry shampoo to mop up oiliness.

Stop swimmer's hair ~ Swimming in salt or chlorinated water can leave mineral deposits on hair, dulling

shine and leaving a greenish tinge. Before swimming, saturate hair with a leave in protective product and

use a deep cleansing shampoo.

Hairstyle ~ MIRANDA'S CHIGNON

2012-01-20T14:08:00.002+11:00

Miranda Kerr's hairstylist David Keough tells InStyle how he constructed Miranda's mane into a top knot

bun, in three easy steps:

1. Start by blow drying the hair out to create body. He then tilts the head back slightly whilst brushing the hair

into a high ponytail. He does this so when you place the elastic in the hair, it makes the nape hair tight - a

sleek look at the back.

Tip - depending on the thickness of the hair he may do a little back combing, teasing in the pony to add bulk.

2. When you are left with a swinging ponytail, hold the end of the hair and twist until it turns back on itself,

wrapping it around the elastic.

3. Have a selection of bobby pins and french pins ready. Start to secure the twisted hair, with a couple of

pins first so you can take your hand away. Then create the desired shape of the bun. Taking a hand mirror

to see that the shape looks good from the profile too.

Tip - David then likes to use a comb to smooth the hair down around the head, to tuck some hair into the

chignon.

loving LET IT GO

2012-01-19T14:05:00.000+11:00

I found this on a favourite read of mine 'The Style Net'. I am a person that always worries how people perceive

me and I take on board comments and criticism to let it affect me for days at a time.

My daughters are constantly saying "Let It Go". This something I am trying to learn to do this year.

In this fast paced world it is so easy to get caught up in the ‘whirlwind’ of life and forget about what is actually important and what we want in life. Let go of the negative and useless thoughts that are holding you back and create space in your mind to think and achieve your dreams.

Let go of everyone’s opinion of you. ‘What others think of you is none of your business”. None of us like to be criticized, particularly when it comes from those close to us, however constantly trying to please others is not only exhausting but moves us further away from who we truly are. Be your authentic self, and you will be far happier and attract the people who will love you for who you are.

Let go of what everyone else wants for you. Do the things you want to do in life, not what your friends and family tell you you should be doing. As Steve Jobs said, “Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice, heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

Let go of boundaries and instead dream big. When you start something new or take something in a new direction, there will always be others who will tell you not to do it, that it will never work and that you are crazy for even trying. Ignore them all, block out the negative noise, do your planning and then just do it!

Let go of jealous feelings and concerns about what everyone else has. Life is not always fair and there will always be someone with more money, a more successful career, a bigger house, a more expensive car, a better relationship… and the list goes on. Instead, focus on the great things in your life and be grateful for what you have.

Let go of the things you can’t control. There are some things in life that are beyond our control, so instead of draining your energy trying to control these factors, instead focus on how to deal with them as best you can. Sometimes we don’t have a choice in the outcome, but we always have a choice in how we deal with it.

Reese says:

On meeting husband, Jim Toth, at a friend’s house: “It happened out of the blue. This really drunk guy was hitting on me, making such an idiot of himself, yelling at me. He was like, ‘You don’t know me.’ And I was like, ‘Yeah, I know. I don’t know you!’ Jim came over and said, ‘Please excuse my friend. He’s just broken up with someone.’

Jim was a really good friend, pulling him out of that situation. That’s just kind of who he is, a really good person.”

On thinking she wouldn’t marry again: “Jim said, ‘I’m gonna show you every day what a good partner is, what a good person is. I’m going to take care of you. I’m gonna do this so much that you’re gonna get used to it.’ I was like, ‘What are you talking about?’ I’ve never had anybody like that in my life.”

On ageing in Hollywood: “Nothin’s going north. It’s all going south, might as well put in on film now. But not

without a lot of padding and a push-up bra.”

On earning a reported $15 to $20 million per film: “Every time they call and talk to me about money, I get embarrassed about it. A couple of women finally made me feel better: ‘To get what you’re making, do you know how much money people are making off of you?’ I’m like, ‘Oh, oh, okay.’”

On living a less-than-perfect life: “I want to not perpetuate any more of this kind of garbage that’s out there in the media about women falling in love blindly. No one’s life is perfect, and I’m sick of whatever tabloid stuff or this or that story tries to portray. My life is just as realistic as everybody else’s. Whoever thinks someone has a perfect life, I’m so eager to dispel that.”

clean slate for the NEW YEAR

2012-01-13T10:56:00.002+11:00

Reading a favourite blog The Simply Luxurious Life,

I came across the post on creating a clean slate for the new year.

1. Clean Out Your Files

Knowing exactly where certain paperwork is located without blinking an eye is a very comforting feeling

when it comes to security. Take the time to go through all of your files, shredding what is no longer

needed to be kept and strategically making files for each company that has a bill you pay (and thus

receive an invoice), a fund you have money in or any other set of documents that are necessary

to keep at the house.

2. Clean Out the Refrigerator and the Pantry

Whether you’ve set a resolution to lose weight or not, clean out your fridge and edit your pantry,

evaluating what you have in it, trying to maintain healthy choices, as well as limiting the snacks.

3. Clear Out Email Inboxes

Choosing to go digital is a great idea to reduce clutter, but when the inbox is overloaded, just looking

at the long list of emails can be a drain on our mental psyche. Take some time to clear it out,

filing important emails in appropriate folders and feel at ease knowing that you have dealt with all

unfinished business from last year, so that the new year can begin with a fresh start.

4. Reset Fitness Goals

So how do you feel in your body? Do you feel full of energy, or sluggish? Do you feel you are as fit

as you can be, or could you be a bit more disciplined? Take some time to reassess how well your

previous health approach was working and tweak it to either maintain or improve your outer and

inner being. Add new music to your iTunes account, set simple goals – maybe just one each month,

and once you successfully follow through, add another new habit – walk each morning or eliminate

desserts, or limit the amount of caffeine you consume. Oh, and on the fashion side, treat yourself to

a new set of workout pants or a top you’ve had your eye on. Working out is easier to look forward to

when you know you will be looking your best.

5. Get In Sync with Your Finances

Being financially secure is a piece of the foundation that allows for true independence and a

healthy self-confidence. How much money is where? How much money is REALLY coming in each

month? If you have debt, create a reasonable plan to pay it down. Begin to prep for taxes and organise

all receipts and other necessary materials.

6. Go Through Your Closet

Going through your closet at least once a year (some do it seasonally) allows for you to determine

what it is you should be shopping for when you do go clothes shopping. One of the reasons our

closets become so cluttered, yet we still feel like we have nothing to wear is because we don’t have

a clear idea of what we are looking for. Upon going through your closet, create three piles - keep, fix,

and donate. Then, based on the fundamental pieces needed in your wardrobe, make a list of what is

missing and what you need be searching for when you head out to your favourite boutique.

I have accomplished most of the steps and I feel so good to start the year with a clean slate.

Do you do something similar to start your New Year fresh?

Photo #9 DAILY ROUTINE

2012-01-09T10:28:00.001+11:00

Before I have my morning coffee I have a glass of lemon water.

Drinking lemon water originates from traditional chinese medicine which relies on nature's produce to

treat health problems. Lemons contain large amounts of nutrients like vitamin C, potassium

and magnesium.

Drinking lemon water can benefit your

immune system ~ as it is rich in Vitamin C which strengthens your immune system which can help

prevent illness.

skin ~ clear skin can portray your inner health. Lemon water cleans your bowel of harmful toxins and

waste which can give you clearer skin.

digestive system ~ helps your liver to produce bile which digests fat for easy elimination.

While lemon water may be taken at any time of the day, many people swear by the amazing benefits

of drinking lemon water first thing in the morning. Your body is literally on a fast while you are asleep

and is in a mild state of dehydration when you wake up. Unlike coffee which is loaded with the diuretic

caffeine, lemon water can re-hydrate your body within minutes of drinking it.

Many people feel energised quickly after drinking lemon water in the morning, and drinking lemon water

before anything else in the morning stimulates your bowel to eliminate accumulated waste. Fix yourself

a glass of lemon water every morning by adding 1 or 2 teaspoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice to a

glass of warm water.

new year BEAUTY RESOLUTIONS

2012-01-02T11:15:00.001+11:00

Detox your nails

With so many news reports about harmful chemicals in everyday items, it's easy to become confused about which chemicals actually do damage. But one simple way you can reduce the number of toxins you are exposed to is to switch your nail polish to a toxin-free brand. "Three ingredients commonly found in nail polish – formaldehyde, toluene and DBP [dibutyl phthalate] – are toxic and have many health implications,"

manicurist Fiona Hay says. "Formaldehyde is a known human carcinogen, toluene is a reproductive toxin and DBP could lead to birth defects." Most polishes say they are "3 Free" on the bottle, but check the ingredient list if you're unsure.

Wash your hair well

Scalp problems such as dandruff or psoriasis can be made worse with excessive use of styling products, so if you're regularly using hairspray, eat-protecting products or other styling aids, wash your hair every few days."Those with psoriasis or dandruff should always use medicated shampoos," hairdresser Brad Ngata says. He advises leaving shampoo in the hair for a minute before rinsing.

Do a beauty audit

Just like the food in your pantry, beauty products have use-by dates. Common side effects of using expired products include skin reactions, conjunctivitis and other eye infections. And if you experience any kind of skin sensitivity or rosacea, just a light application of a product that is past its prime could be enough to give you a rash that may take weeks to get back under control. Foundations and moisturisers generally last a year after opening. Many products carry an "open jar" symbol that indicates how long, in months, the product can be safely used after opening, if properly stored. Stick to it.

Clean make-up brushes

Months-old foundation, blush or eye shadow on your make-up brushes could be harbouring harmful bacteria, so experts advise washing your brushes once a month. "The bacteria can live on unwashed brushes for months and each time you apply your make-up you run the risk of them transferring to your skin and causing problems such as skin irritation or infection," says make-up artist Allie Clark. Rinse your brushes in warm water with facial cleanser. Work it through the bristles with your fingers. Pat dry with a towel.

Remove your make-up

We've all experienced a late night when you just can't be bothered standing in front of the bathroom mirror to remove your make-up. But sleeping in your foundation can clog your pores, leading to problems including acne, dryness and red, inflamed skin. "Properly cleansing your skin every night to remove every trace of make-up is your best weapon against skin conditions," Clark says. She advises using an oil-free make-up remover first, followed by your regular cleanser and moisturiser.

Care for your cuticles

Applying cuticle oil is probably the last thing on a busy woman's mind, but taking just a few seconds every week (or daily if you can manage) to take care of the skin surrounding your nail bed can help prevent infection caused by dry skin. "By massaging cuticle oil into the cuticles and nails, you increase circulation and blood flow to the area, which promotes healthy growth of the nails and keeps them from becoming dry and brittle," Hay says.

Wear sunscreen – even in winter

If you don't already do it, make regular checks of your skin a habit in 2012. Look for spots, lumps or unusual changes."Checking your skin at the start of every season [every three months] is a good way to remember," says Vanessa Rock from Cancer Council NSW. "A GP should be consulted immediately if anything looks new, different or just odd."

get ready to sparkle with the 10 SECRETS TO SUCCESS

2011-12-30T20:09:00.001+11:00

How you think is everything ~

Always be positive. Think success, not failure. Beware of a negative environment.

Decide upon your true dreams and goals ~

Write down your specific goals and develop a plan to reach them.

Take action ~

Goals are nothing without action. Do not be afraid to get started. Just do it.

Never stop learning ~

Go back to school or read books. Get training and acquire skills.

Be persistant and work hard ~

Success is a marathon, not a sprint. Never give up.

Learn to analyse details ~

Get all the facts, all the input. Learn from your mistakes.

Focus your time and money ~

Do not let other people or things distract you.

Don't be afraid to innovate, Be different ~

Following the herd is a sure way to mediocrity.

Deal and communicate with people effectively ~

No person is an island. Lear to understand and motivate others.

Be honest and dependable: Take responsibility ~

Otherwise, Numbers 1-9 will not matter.

rebuilding my wardrobe ~ PARISIAN CHIC

2011-12-28T08:56:00.000+11:00

The trick to creating an effortlessly chic wardrobe is to build it gradually over time.

Your taste is becoming more refined so you are going to be more picky when it comes to adding
new pieces. When shopping I always ask myself, 'would I wear this 3-5 years from now?' and if it's a
yes, then I invest in it. Your wardrobe should consist of 85% quality pieces and 15% trendy pieces.
French women shun trends:(...but it doesn't mean you can't have fun with them from time to time).

Love these tips :~

Classic black dress

I am not really the long evening dress type.

A gorgeous black dress (Audrey Hepburn style) I also have also just invested

in a few gorgeous print dresses from CUE as well.

I will be culling much of my wardrobe and keeping items I will want to wear in 3-5 years time.

Stripes

(very french & very chic) a french must have at any age.

A Scarf

A light weight or heavy knit. The French are all about layering and adding a personal touch.

Outerwear
Whether a trench or peacoat, your jacket is the last thing you put on but the first impression you make.

Jewellery

Grows old with you and still makes you look good.
