What’s the buzz in the beauty industry … here are a few sneak peaks into some tried and tested goodies.
Girls best friend, ghd brings out the ghd Pink limited edition styler (R2 280). Available in selected salons from 1 September 2010, R100 from each styler sold will be donated to the Cancer Association of South Africa (CANSA) who aim to encourage all women to invest in their health by learning how to detect women’s cancers early, including breast cancer which affects one in 29 women each year. Yay, we love this ghd!
Skinny jeans friendly lip balm, Soft Lips, releases an organic range. A blend of organic oils, beeswax and shea butter to keep your lips nourished and moisturised all season long. Available exclusively at Clicks stores nationwide at a recommended retail price of R29.90, girls can choose from six delicious flavours, including pomegranate, chai tea, peppermint, papaya, melon and acai berry.
I love this two in one therapy. A fragrant candle, yet as it burns the wax turns into a nourishing body oil. The Spa-Valous Body Massage Candles can be used for an all over body massage, manicures, pedicures, spa treatments, bath oil, daily body moisturiser or as a candle. When applied to your body either warmed or not, the oils are absorbed into the skin leaving it smooth, radiant and supple.

Truworths launches a fun range of cosmetic accessories called My, so you can play and paper from Head to toe.
There’s nothing better than getting to the top of the stairs on a Friday afternoon and taking in the sea breeze and beautiful view at Exquisite Skin and Beauty Therapy. I got treated to a beautiful massage and was almost in la la land towards the end. I loved the unusual massage techniques… from traditional massage and pressure of your desire, to relaxing tickling strokes. Also, having gone towards the end of winter, totally un-waxed and looking a little fuzzy, my therapist put me at total ease, comfort and relaxation. Big points for that! 
Aquafresh launches The Interdental Buzz Tooth Brush inspired by dental floss combined with a vibration action. With 50% of plaque hiding between our teeth, it makes sense to have a dental floss type brushing system. Say cheese!
