Travel Bucket List: Akasha Mountain Retreat

Every now and then you discover a place that literally takes your breathe away. That is exactly what happened when I spotted pics of Akasha Mountain Retreat this morning. This is what I picture Heaven to look like.

‘Akasha Mountain Retreat offers picturesque Cape-Maroc style accommodation in a serene, private setting with spectacular panoramic views over the Langeberg & secluded Duiwenhoks Dam. Situated just 12km north of Heidelberg & the N2 – an ideal off-grid location in which to ‘disconnect from digital & reconnect with nature.’

Akasha Mountain Retreat is a beautifully decorated, fully equipped self-catering, 3 bedroom
house (plus separate double bedroom) situated up in the mountains between Heidelberg and Barrydale.

My soul aches for Akasha. One day…

GIVEAWAY – Juliette Armand SunFilm SPF 30 {CLOSED}

And the winner is… Bianca Balutto!

Congratulations. I’ll contact you shortly x


Summer is here! Finally. And I hope you are wearing sun protection every day? Take it from someone a bit older (who would give anything to go back and slap my sun-worshipping 20 year old self)…

Never, ever go a day without sunscreen! Especially in summer. Okay, lecture over. Let’s get to the good part.

Juliette Armand has kindly sponsored one of their fabulous SunFilm products to give away.

Juliette Armand SunFilm SPF30

Why do you want to win this?

Juliette Armand SunFilm SPF30 is a soothing sun gel that is suitable for all skin types, but ideal for sensitive and oily skins. The tinted gel not only protects your skin, but will give it a lovely glow as well. The gel has a delicate non-oily feel and the formulation is paraben-, mineral oil-, porpylene glycol- and allergen free. SunFilm also contains revolutionary ANTITOX.

The unique ANTITOX by Juliette Armand ensures the antioxidant properties of sunscreen products with high protection factors. It is an innovative and powerful new-generation antioxidant cocktail with the revolutionary self-regenerating mechanism of its antioxidant ingredients. The mechanism is activated during the action of these ingredients, as opposed to common antioxidants which are counteracted during their action.

To enter, like Pretty Please Charlie on Facebook HERE (if you haven’t already) and leave a comment below sharing your favourite thing about summer. It would be great if you could show Juliette Armand some love too. I’ll announce the winner on 12 November ’15. South African residents only.

Good luck!

xoxo
