MYER Melbourne CBD

7 04 2011

Myer Melbourne has finally unveiled it’s flagship store in Bourke Street to celebrate its 100th birthday. After four years and A$300 million – Myer Melbourne is probably one of the best department stores I have ever seen. Miss E, Miss V and I went to check it out and took some photos of this beautiful store. Of course I was told not to – but look how beautiful the store fitting is… I LIKE!!!

Miss V at the Chanel counter - told her to try the Chanel No 5 Premiere

Taken from the ground floor - not sure how many floors but i think 5. You have got to visit it to appreciate the shop - reminds me of the La Fayette store in Paris.

Miss V checking the perfume section. She likes the Stella McCartney.

The best part - the luxury handbag section. Miss V was eyeing the Moschino bag

... and the luxury shoe section. Too bad no Christian Luobotin

After Myer, we then went on to Target and then to Priceline – where we shoped ’til we drop.

Miss E having a rest - after Priceline. I was knocked out though - i had my laptop bag, Friday bag and the shopping bag from Priceline

Miss V at the Priceline counter. She was buying stuff for her children and family - such a great Mum she is.





Loving right now: SKINN face wash

7 04 2011

I bought this skin care line called SKINN by James Dimitri on TVSN 6 weeks ago and I have been using these duo cleansers (AM and PM specific) since and I must say I’m loving it. This company is based in LA in the US and sells through shop TVs.

The morning cleanser is called Sulfate Free Gentle Cleanser. Described as: ” water-activated, detergent-free cleanser leaves your skin feeling squeaky clean, but never stripped. Because this cleanser is sulfate free, it can thoroughly clean without damaging the skin’s natural moisturizing factors. It removes skin plaque which ordinary cleansers can’t. Your skin care products will penetrate better and makeup will go on smoother. Contains mild alpha-hydroxy-acids (AHA’s) buffered with green tea extract to gently resurface and bring out new layers of skin.”

Since I have been using this each morning, my face tends to look brighter and clearer and makes applying make up so smooth. The scent is so refreshing too it makes me feel rejuvenated each time. You can also use this as mask – so what I do is put it on and leave it whilst I brush my teeth so it stays on for 2 to 3 minutes. Wash it off and I then have a clean and clear morning skin.

The evening cleanser is called Olive & Enzyme Rich Balm Cleanser: “rich in Polyphenols and skin resurfacing enzymes, this water-free, super-rich, night-time cleansing balm is the ultimate skin luxury. First, it dissolves dirt, makeup, daily grime, pollution and dead skin cells. It’s so gentle it even removes eye makeup as it softens and smoothes the skin with rich olive butter. Orange oil works to purify, while a new high-tech bio-engineered enzyme resurfaces for the cleanest skin ever! Apply as a mask for the ultimate super smoothing, resurfacing, deep pore cleansing treatment.”

Another amazing cleanser and has this sweet creamy smell that I love putting it on and leaving it for 2 to 3 minutes before taking it off. It’s like the Ponds cold cream, only better in terms of smell and quality.

I was skeptical at the onset but then James was so great in selling on TV I could not resist buying. I have ordered a few of his products but these are the 2 itens I’m using now. The duo cleansers costs around A$40 bucks.
