Today I am talking about a brand I'm actually very familiar with called Australian Bodycare and was one of the products I brought out to Italy. I have written a post about their lovely Cleansing Face Mask but my beautician actually used their After Wax and I bloody love the stuff.
I get a lot of waxing done, once a month, I get everything. I'm pretty lucky because I have very fair hair my leg hair is almost impossible to see. I never get my legs out anyway but I just like to have them waxed as well. However if you get a lot of waxing done like myself you can't always escape the odd ingrown hair which is incredibly annoying. I went to a PR event a few months ago and Australian Bodycare was their discussing their wide range of products and the lovely lady advised that after waxing I should try out the lotion because of it'singredients it actually helps with keeping the skin soft and works as an antiseptic as well, which is always a good thing.
What really stands out about Australian Bodycare is that every product has tea tree in it, in fact it's pretty strongly scented. So if you're not a fan of tea tree oil or that type of scent stay well away because it is strong but if you don't mind it you need to check this stuff out. I used this lotion after my wax and it kept my skin lovely and soft. But the thing I was really impressed with was the regrowth of my hair, because it kept my skin super soft it mean the hair could grow back my easier.
For me, this is a brand I would definitely repurchase, even if it isn't something I would use every day, it's there for when I need it which is the most important thing really. The products are actually a pretty good price, the 100ml tube is on £8.99 so it's not that bad.
Have you tried any Australian Bodycare products?
As you may have seen in a previous post, I recently went to a PR event which was totally amazing and you can read the post here. But I also wanted to share with you the brands and products I received. I will be review a lot of these products separately but for this post I have kind of hand to bundle everything together otherwise there would be just far too many pictures. Some products I haven't actually included just because there was so many.
At the event there was some really great brands on one brand I am super keen to try out is Sexy Hair, they have some great hair products which I'm always on the hunt for. The product I am really looking to try out is the Soy Renewal Creme because it is infused with Argan oil but is a much lighter formula. I have quite fine hair which means it's hard to use oils because it weighs it down but I was assured by the very lovely lady at Sexy Hair that this would be perfect for me. It also smells lovely.
Australian Bodycare was also there, which you already know I'm a massive fan of, I love the tea tree products so I'm really excited to try the facial wash and body lotion out. Steamcream is a really nice product as well, it's a moisturiser, I tried a little bit any it really makes your skin feel silky smooth. Next is a new favourite of mine, it's the Dr.PAWPAW lip balms, I've really fallen in love with these. The Peach Pink is my favourite shade, it goes quite pink on me but can go to more of a peach colour dependent on your skin tone.
Revlon gave us a whole host of different products to try out, all full sized and wonderful. There is a brunette shampoo and conditioner which obviously I can't use because I'm a blonde but I know someone who will like it so I'll have to pass that on. But there is a blonde product that enhances blonde hair but my problem is that I'm naturally blonde even though everyone at the event thought it was dyed, it really isn't. The Orofluido Oil is one that I am SO excited to try out because it smells divine. Another product I'm super keen to try out is Uniq One which has a whopping 10 benefits for restoring ad protecting your hair.
So there we have just a few products, I feel very luck to have been give the opportunity to attend the event.
Have you tired any of these brand before?
If you are a regular reader you'll know I love a face mask, any kinda I love trying out and was very kindly sent this face mask, so you know I was pretty excited to try it out.
Australian Bodycare is a brand I've heard of before, I have actually used their After Wax product which is really nice. They have quite an extensive range of skincare products on site and most appear to have Tea Tree Oil in them. This is the Cleansing Face Mask* and it's a clay based mask which I was surprised about because when you first squeeze it out of the bottle you'll notice that it's no where near as thick as other clay masks which is a good thing because some clay mask dry so hard you actually do more damage to your skin trying to get it off. Australian Bodycare's version is a thick but creamy formula and not only includes Tea Tree Oil but also has Macadamia Oil and Papaya.
The scent of this product is very strong, you can smell the Tea Tree as soon as you take the lid off this but to me this isn't a bad thing. However if you don't like strong smelling products it may not be for you. This product is mild enough to be used everyday but I decided I'd only use it weekly, I don't usually use face masks everyday, who has time for that? I'd say you've gotta give it a pretty good shake as well, because it's a funny kind of texture, it's a little runny, a little thick, a little lumpy, just give it a shake and it makes it come out of the bottle much smoother.
When I put this product on it actually felt quite tingly, which is something I'm not used to, as it was drying I could really feel it. It wasn't unpleasant, but I think if you have very sensitive skin it would almost feel a little irritated. The thing that I really love about this product is the way it dried onto my skin. With Clay masks they can dry to hard and it make it a pain to get off, however this Australian Bodycare face mask actually dried softly so it was much easier to wash off. Once I did wash it off, I noticed my skin looked very matte and fresh, I really like how my skin felt. I put a bit of my favourite moisturiser on and for the rest of the day this product leaves my skin feeling very smooth and soft.
This Cleansing Face Mask really is gentle on the skin and has some great ingredients, I can definitely notice a different in my skins texture and overall appearance every time I use the product.
Have you tried anything from Australian Bodycare?
