Nunuki – skincare for little humans

A couple of weeks ago we received a package containing the cutest skincare products for little ones. I introduce you to Nunuki.

Nunuki – skincare for little humans

Nunuki

Who is Nunuki?

Nunuki® is a locally made range of skincare products for babies and children. We’ve worked with super-smart pharmaceutical companies to make the best skincare products possible, all of which are dermatologically tested and approved, CANSA endorsed and Proudly South African. We back this with a 100% money-back guarantee. Nunuki® products are available online and in selected stores.

Cara received two full size products and a travel kit to try.

Nunuki Skincare for little humans

Cara loves Izey’s Hair & Body Wash and Elfie’s Cream. The hair and body wash works beautifully with her sensitive skin.  It gently cleanses and leaves her skin feeling soft and cared for. And I love the added Jojoba Oil. Elfie’s Cream is the favourite though. It contains a special blend of natural oils that assist in moisture retention and hydration and it protects against skin irritation and strengthens the skin barrier. I’ve tried it too and it feels fabulous on my skin. Win!

Nunuki travel kit

We also received a Nunuki Travel Set. It is great for travelling and makes for an awesome gift. The set (that comes in a fab bag) contains travel sizes of Dex’s Bum Paste, Nunu’s Bath & Massage Oil, Izey’s Hair & Body Wash, Lello’s Protecting SPF30 Sunscreen, Elfie’s Cream and Maxi’s Pesky Bug Cream. We have yet to try the sunscreen and bug cream, but that’s because I’m saving these for our camping trip in a couple of months. And even though we don’t have a bum in the house that needs bum paste, this tin is my personal favourite from the brand. I’ve been using it to protect my eczema-prone hands from all the sanitising. It works like a charm. It contains Zinc Oxide which protects and nourishes and the blend of Argan, Avocado and Evening Primrose Oils is very soothing. 

Did you notice the super cute characters on the packaging?

On every Nunuki® skincare product you’ll see a quirky face smiling back at you. These are our nunukis, a family of characters each with their own special skills, strengths and stories to tell. Each has a unique personality and is eager to teach us valuable life lessons. They’re there to make bathtime fun,  and bedtime easier. Just like no two people are the same, neither are any of the nunukis. These little guys are a smiling reminder to try and find the fun in your daily routine.

Nunuki – Made with love. Backed by science. 

We love Nunuki and I’m sure you will too. Visit their website over HERE.

Avène to the rescue… again!

Avène… a name that brings a smile to my face. I have not used a single Avène product that has not impressed.  And my sensitive skin is grateful as Avène comes to the rescue yet again.

Avène to the rescue… again!

Avène Hydrance Aqua-Gel

Avène Hydrance Aqua-Gel is new and it is one of my all time favourites from the brand.

An all-in-one hydrating skin care solution, inspired by Japanese beauty rituals that can be used as a day cream, a sleeping mask and around the eye contour. The fresh, aqua-gel texture melts into your skin and provides a glowing, dewy look.

Firstly, the aqua-gel texture is extremely soothing and your skin will love it. Mine most definitely does. It melts into your skin leaving it feeling soft and soothed. It is also surprisingly light which makes it good for all year round. I love that it is a multi-tasker that can be used as a daily moisturizer, a sleeping mask and for eye contour care. Patented Cohederm complex provides intense hydration and the combination of Dextran Sulfate and Pre-tocopheryl helps to fight free radical attacks. It also contains a high concentration of Avène Thermal Spring Water (75%) that offers intense soothing and softening benefits. I don’t think I need to tell you how amazing this cult favourite is! A 50ml jar retails for R349 and it’s worth every cent.

Avène Cicalfate+ Restorative Protective Cream & Cicalfate Drying Repair Lotion

Avène Cicalfate+ Restorative Protective Cream is brand new and personally, I am so thankful for the release of this tube. My hands have been struggling with all the sanitising and Cicalfate+ has been a godsend. This is also a multi-tasker and it works for superficial cuts, razor burn, post-epilation irritations, nappy rash, skin irritations, peri-oral irritations, sunburn, mask-related skin irritations and more. And of course eczema. RSP R209

Why does it work so well …

REPAIRING
[C+-Restore]™, a patented, postbiotic active ingredient derived from Avène Thermal Spring Water which facilitates rapid epidermal repair.

PURIFYING
The combination of copper sulfate and zinc sulfate reduces the risk of bacterial proliferation.

SOOTHING
Rich in Avène Thermal Spring Water, it soothes fragile skin.

If you suffer from eczema that results in broken skin, you need Avène’s Cicalfate Drying Repair Lotion. This fragrance-free lotion has proved to be a must. It repairs and purifies irritated, damaged and oozing skin whilst protecting against bacteria. And it’s suitable for the whole family. RSP R209.00

My face and hands thank you Avène. You really have come to the rescue yet again.
