The Love List {April 2014}

It’s already the end of another month. April was a month of chocolate, family fun, holidays and Anzac marches.

Here are some of my favourite things from this month and a round up of the best bargains out there!

♥ This month I discovered funky online store Lovage (totally love the name too!)

Lovage is an online boutique that sells premium quality natural/organic cosmetics. Their tagline is ‘beauty sans la beast’ ! The girls at Lovage want to provide community members with toxic-free beauty products that actually deliver on the skincare goodness promise.

With top brands like Vanessa Megan, Ere Perez, Evohe and Laviol, Lovage covers all beauty needs from skincare, bodycare, haircare and makeup. You can also get free shipping on orders over $150. It’s pretty much a one-stop natural beauty shop!

While you are there, check out the blog with some interesting articles on natural beauty. 

The lovely Heidi from Lovage is offering all of you an exclusive deal! Receive 10% off on your purchase if you spend $50 or more at Lovage.  Just use the code NNAM10. Offer expires June 1, 2014.

♥ The sneak peek for the new movie, Overfed and Undernourished came out and it resonated with me. Actually, it made me sad but hopeful all at the same time. Watch it here and tell me what you think. I am so looking forward to this movie being out and spreading the word on healthy living!

♥ My new favourite cookbook – My Darling Lemon Thyme by chef, mum and blogger, Emma Galloway. I made her Pecan Maple Tart for Easter and it was divine. Emma’s recipes are gluten free, vegetarian and real, whole foods all the way. There are so many recipes I want to make, I don’t know where to begin. Loving it, big time (and yes, I do sing ‘my darling clementine’ every time I get the book out!) You can get it online with free shipping.

♥ Melissa at Frugal and Thriving has my favourite blog post this month. It’s 10 ways to ditch disposables in the kitchen. I particularly love this idea of knitting kitchen cloths. They really do work well!

♥ Actually, I had two favourite blog posts this month. Kirri White Coaching has this awesome post about giving yourself permission to feel lost while you are finding yourself. Kirri has such a great understanding of women and  practical advice to help navigate life.

♥ What do you do with your old yoga mat when it gets worse for wear? You don’t throw it away! LovEarth Yoga mats gives us some ideas on how we can reincarnate it!! Very cool. I would have never thought of doing this.

♥ I got another delivery from the lovely ladies at TOM Organic this month. This is the only brand I use now. They are an Aussie company and use only certified organic cotton. As the TOM team so eloquently put it – no more chemical and bleaches near your lady bits! They have recently also released their maternity and pad range.

You *can* now get the range from Woolworths for convenience, but if you want to avoid the supermarkets and get bulk prices, go straight to their online store. The lovely Aimee has a special deal just for you! Get a massive 20% off any purchase from their online store! Just use the code: NATMUM. Ends May 31st.

 ♥ The lovely Aaron and Phoebe at Happy Skincare are giving away a Sweet Dreams Foot Softening Treatment with their 3 Step System. Hurry ends May 11. A perfect Mother’s Day gift!

♥ Sarah at the Raw Food Store has a great special on the Southern Cross pottery water filters this week. As well as filtering out a lot of nasties, these ones also filter out fluroide.

♥ Happy Tummies has a special on food pouches. Get 10 for $9.95.

♥ Yard Games are having a massive sale with up to 80% off! They stock a great range of outdoor, backyard and educational games for kids.

♥ There are also a heap of great deals and discount codes on my Mother’s Day Gift Guide post. Hurry, they are only for a short time and exclusive to NNAM readers!!

 What took your fancy this month? Anything exciting we should know about?
