Want to know how to get the smoothest looking skin and the shiniest, bounciest hair?
Tee's got all the secrets in this week's Hot Five on how to makeover your dull, lack lustre winter skin and your tired hair as well as dishing the latest news on two other nzgirl office favourites' makeovers! Read on to find out more and how you could win your own hair treatment!
Neutrogena Wave I’m pretty fussy about what I use on my face – underneath this rough and tumble exterior lies some pretty soft and sensitive skin. I’m already a big fan of Neutrogena’s Extra Gentle Cleanser so I was naturally delighted to discover that the vibrating Neutrogena Wave also loved my skin! It’s a fun way to give my face some attention – polishing away a hard day’s work with a gentle buff in smooth circular motions. I liken it to the same effect that an electric toothbrush has on your teeth – a power clean because it ensures you give your skin an all over clean! Goodbye clogged pores and impurities, hello luminous and glowing skin!
Wella System Professional Sleek Essence Don’t you just love finding out a secret tip from a pro? When I last had my hair done by the lovely Danielle at Dharma (09 630 1879) she amazed me with a treatment that left my hair silky and shiny for days! I managed to get it out of her what she’d used – and turns out you can recreate the effect at home. Normally, a frizz control product such as the Wella System Professional Sleek Essence would send me running – but a few squirts of this concoction of Squalane and Jojoba oil in a treatment masque, followed by a few drops run through your hair before blow drying and you have gorgeous, glossy locks! $29 from Dharma or your favourite Wella stockist.
WIN: We have five pumps of the Sleek Essence to giveaway thanks to Wella System Professional. Enter below!
Cranium WOW As if the original version of Cranium wasn’t fabulous enough, they’ve gone and taken it to a whole new level with the invention of Cranium WOW! Everything you always loved about the first edition – but with new activities, a new 10 sided die, fresh purple clay-goop, all new vinyl ‘people pawns’ that you can get creative with the look of and 600 new cards! Instant fun – just add people! This is no walk in the park board game and there are no clear advantages to any one player - unless you are a rare all-rounder. This is serious stuff where you have to draw, sculpt, hum, whistle, act out and answer some rather tricky questions. Always a laugh, a challenge and bound to bring out the competitive streak in every player! $64.99 from all good toy stores. 100 Days/100 Dollars August on nzgirl is our Actionista month (check out our awards here). We’re all about encouraging you guys to have a say and make a difference in the world around you, as well as saluting those great role models who’re already living the dream. 100 Days/100 Dollars is a fundraising campaign from the Hope Foundation Development to raise enough money to build schools for AIDS orphans and impoverished kids in Kenya – as Nelson Mandela once said, “Education is the most powerful weapon you can use to change the world”. From today until the end of November (that’s 100 days!) every nzgirl is encouraged to donate in someway their $100 contribution to the project. Inspired? Click here for more. Natural Nut Bars It’s the week for makeovers – your hair, your skin, your favourite board game and now... your favourite museli bars! Natural Nut Bars are a popular choice in the nzgirl office – we love their nutty taste and all the different flavours from yoghurt and chocolate covered, to trail mix or apricot you’ll find us munching on them when we need the energy to keep making the wonderful nzgirl – or just because we want a snack! We also love that Natural Nut Bars use natural ingredients, contain no artificial colours or flavours and are a great source of fibre and protein! When you next go to the supermarket, look out for the new pack design – still the same great taste, just a slightly different look!
