TT Beauty Spotlight: 5 products I use every day

And when I say "use every day". I mean EVERY DAY. I'm loving each of these guys as much as my own children right now. Can't get enough.

(Clockwise from left): 
Dermalogica Precleanse Wipes: Every Dermalogica Regimen is based upon the foundation of the "double-cleanse" and I'm a bit of a fan of that. These are not only clean-freak-crack, but they are new new new! Click to buy.

Byredo Seven Veils: Warning: Reading Scandinavian Design Blogs will have you "decorating" your bedside table with a bottle of Byredo Perfume faster than you can say "White floorboards or bust"! I took myself to Mecca Cosmetica, smelled them all and this was the clear winner. Click to buy.

By Terry Hyalauronic Summer: Also from Mecca, the perfect, terracotta-y brown bronzer in a creamy mousse-like formulation. Not at all pink. I use it on my hairline, temples, cheeks (pre-blush) and nose. Winning. Available in store only from Mecca Cosmetica, but click to Google.

Kiehl's Powerful Strength Line-Reducing Concentrate: I first tried this wonder product when I worked for Cosmopolitan Magazine and it was launched almost a decade ago. I recently revisited it after being given a tiny sachet with a Kiehl's online order and am equally as smitten as I was back then. Great for refining (translation: smoothing the shizzles out of) skin texture. Click to buy.

Kevin Murphy Hair Resort: My hairdresser/Goddess (Justine from Studio Q in Sydney's Bilgola) has put me onto a few Kevin Murphy products since I started wearing my hair wavy again, and I am a CONVERT. Hair Resort ticks so many boxes - definition, movement, texture, de-frizzer... Smells ace pops too. Click to buy.

I have to give  special shout out to Adore Beauty. They have free shipping on all orders within Australia, a huuuuge range of brands and are my go-to for all Dermalogica and any random products I can't make it into a store to buy. Oh, and the fact that they include a Tim Tam in the box with your order? SOLD!

Table Tonic offer: 30% off Little Shadows Sun Shades!

I'm not sure about you, but we are positively living at the beach at the moment! Sydney weather has been nothing short of spectacular (alright we could do with a bit of rain) and the post-Christmas surfboards (even Mr Tonic got one this year) and boogie boards are just begging to be taken for a bash! But the sun... Oh yes the sun is geting stronger and stronger it seems. But HOW COOL ARE THESE SUN SHADES (buh-bye beach umbrella!)

(above) Our Ampersand and Palm Tree cushions take the comfort factor up to well above seven hundred.

These beautiful quality Sun Shades are made from 100% pre-shrunk cotton canvas, complimented by quality teak wood poles. They are PERFECT for the beach, picnics, camping, over a sandpit or pet-zone, while entertaining at your next BBQ, off a boat and even off your vehicle (you can get a car adaption kit)!

(above and below) Love this - You can change the position of the shade to suit you using a 1/2 (above) or 3/4 position (below). Clever.

Each Little Shadows Sun Shade comes complete with a stylish sun shade carry bag (below), in which you will find another smaller bag for your "super sand pegs" and a wooden mallet.  Ropes, tension fittings and easy 5 step instructions are also included (shade size is 1.5m x 3.7m). 

Aaaaaand (drumroll)... Little Shadows are offering Table Tonic readers a whopping 30% off their full range of Sun Shades (rrp $399) from now until 15 February 2014 - That's a saving of $119.70! To redeem your discount, simply enter code tabletonic at checkout. Click to shop Little Shadows Sun Shades.
