One of my absolute favorite products is the Inika blending brush made from 100% synthetic materials and wood from sustainable forestry. It is really soft and neat and is very versatile.

Another favorite of mine is the mineral mascara. An organic mascara that fattens your lashes to make them look full and sensual. Being a contact lens wearer I have very sensitive an dry eyes but this mascara works fantastically. I also use miessence organic mascara as I like changing every now and then.

Out about on town there is so much fabulous fashion walking around. Cute little floral dresses matched with sandals during the day and with heels at night. Black dresses with lace and crocheting matched with large bags. Long feminine flowing dresses and headbands in all forms. Highwaisted short short jeans shorts matched with a plain singlet, cowboy boots, a straw hat over blonde locks and a vintage brown worn out shoulder bag.

Looking through the vintage and op shops in Newtown and around Surry Hills is a great way to spend a sunny Saturday. The first Saturday of each month they have a great market in Surry Hills opposite the library that is full of amazing and cool finds. The Bondi Markets also offers some great vintage clothing as well as many other little things.

Where to buy organic offline?

If you do wish to find a physical shop to buy organic products your local health store is a great place to start. Also shops such as Macro and Planet Organic are spreading around the world to provide us with the same opportunities for fun shopping as our non organic friends.

Another way to locate an organic shop close to you is to simply email the company that is producing and distributing the desired products. If you for example want to buy Dr. Hauschkas organic face cream you can search online to find their website, find the contact email or phone number and let them know that you wish to buy their products locally and can they please tell you where? If they can't help you at least they know they have potential customers around your area which may be a trigger for them to send a representative out to make sure the products get stocked there.
