SARAH MIKAELA: WANDERLUST BY NATURE

AUSTRALIAN GLOW

Whilst your mind as mine is probably currently wrapped up in last minute presents, thermal clothing and drawing out the final game-plan to find the coin in the Christmas pudding, this time of year always echoes a funny skip between summer and winter for me (it's not my fault, dad's Australian). As my in-house partner in crime Amy (also Aussie) gets in full-on Christmas-mode once the July sun hits London, December gets me reminiscing of the natural golden bake you get from spending ten minutes outside, having a cuppa in Fitzroy.

Always a fan of naturally derived cruelty-free products, I was clapping my hands when my Australian favourites Nude by Nature made their way North of Equator. I always stock up on their Intense Moisturiser whenever I go, and now after having a messy play with their mineral makeup from their gift boxes as a child playing with mum's lipgloss 'n' rouge, I'm finding myself crushing on the brand even more. Personally the Bondi Shores Deluxe Contour Kit won me over with the Sheer Light Pressed Illuminator. Just poifect.. Nothing beats a good glow, and winter if any time is a nice time to enhance what the sun isn't.
