Harmattan 2009 Collection......

More fashionably late pictures of our Harmattan 2009 collection of classic black dresses........
We are an Afrikan label. We don't do the whole autumn/winter thing yet because we are not making autumn and winter collections. Not yet anyway. So we have the Summer collection and the Harmattan collection that reflect our Afrikan seasons. Contemplating a Rain collection too!

Dry body brushing.....

Dry body brushing is an excellent way of exfoliating, stimulating lymphatic drainage and detoxifying the entire system. It's great for smoothing out dry skin, cellulite, scars, stretchmarks and uneven skin tone if done daily as it increases cellular regeneration of the skin. It is also one of the best preventative measures against cancer. Get a natural bristle brush and brush in long gentle strokes from feet up, all over body, always brushing towards the heart.....

Egyptian Magic.

I love Egyptian Magic! It's an all natural, all purpose cream made of honey, olive oil, propolis, pollen and beeswax. It can be used on face, lips, body, dry hands and feet, hair, as a cleanser, for babies..... It has amazing healing and skin softening properties and is also great for ezcema and scars. It's a thick balm but that does'nt stop me from smearing it all over my face day and night at the moment. I'm glowing!
