And as we now know, what we put on our skin ends up in our body.
Chemicals that are commonly found in skin care products, like fragrance, phtalates and parabens can upset the delicate balance of hormones in our body and cause not so good things to happen.
So join me for a fun hands-on class Sunday 25th August 10am-12pm at my home in Mairangi Bay.
Learn about doTERRA essential oils and how easy it is to make your own super simple, natural skin care products for a fraction of the cost you would buy them at the store.
Cost is $30.
Go home with your own natural:
~face wash
~oil cleanser
~face polishing powder
~anti-aging moisturiser
Classes are small, so message or text me to book your seat ASAP.
And if you can't make it this time, message me and we can arrange another class time or gather a group of friends and I can come to you.
Learn how to live a more natural toxin-free life!

These days however they are not so natural :( with most being created with a complex blend of petroleum derived chemicals.
Many conventional perfumes contain over a dozen chemicals that do not have to be disclosed on the label.
Among them are chemicals associated with hormone disruption and allergic reactions, and many substances that have not been assessed for safety in personal care products.
Scary huh!
Especially when you think this is what you every day may be putting on your skin, every day what you are breathing in and every day what your family and kids are breathing in.
Again scary!
So why not make your own?
Come along to my class and learn how super simple it is to use doTERRA essential oils to blend up your own signature scent that is not only 100% natural, it can also do positive things for your emotions, your hormones and your health - with 0% side effects.
Win. Win. Win.
The class is $30 and you will learn how to choose essential oils that complement each other to make three different personalized perfume blends to take home and try out for yourself.
Next class is this Sunday 18th August at 10am - 12pm.
Classes are small, so message me to book your seat ASAP.
And if you can't make it this time, message me and we can arrange another class time or gather a group of friends and I can come to you.

These decorated wooden dolls "with a secret" are also called matryoshka dolls or babushka dolls. They are recognized even in the countries thousand miles away from Russia. The simplicity and originality of matryoshka dolls attract the fans of Russian folk art from around the world. Bright and picturesque Russian nesting dolls decorate the fireplaces and bookshelves in the homes of thousands of Russians.
Despite the fact that first matryoshka dolls were intended for children, their price was so high that only adults could afford to buy them on special occasions. Matryoshka dolls were often given as a present to young women from their beloved ones. In 1900, the dolls earned a bronze medal at the World Exhibition in Paris. Soon after, Russian nesting dolls became wildly popular. The toys were being produced in several well-known manufacturing centers, the most famous of them being Sergiev Posad and Semenov. In the early twentieth century, Russian nesting dolls were being exported abroad in large quantities. The popularity of the dolls even gave rise to a few companies in Germany which produced counterfeit nesting dolls and sold them as Russian toys.
In 1913, a factory in the city of Semyonov produced a matryoshka dolls set that consisted of 48 figures and was painted in traditional red and yellow colours.
In the meantime, the biggest Russian dolls set was presented at the exhibition in Japan in 1970. Russian masters from Semenov showcased a matryoshka set that included seventy-two figures. The production of such matryoshkas requires exceptional skills and talent, so their mass production is not possible.
If you need unique unusual gift for any special occasion choose matryoshka. You will definitely surprise everyone in a pleasant way. We offer pretty huge range of nesting dolls in our store. Just come and choose your one.
