Hayden Panettiere
SUMMER GODDESS 

Hayden Panettiere shows off her amazing bikini body in this new photo shoot for Esquire magazine. This 23 year old actress isn't shy about stripping down for the pages of this popular men's magazine. This summer Hayden stars as Juliette on ABC's hit new show Nashville.




"I refused myself a lot of things for a long time, and the more I did that, the more I wanted foods I wasn't supposed to have. Now I am on my feet for 16 hours a day and I need energy, so I eat constantly. Every two hours, you should be throwing something in, a handful of nuts or a piece of fruit." ~ Hayden Panettiere

Product of the Month: Eco Tan Winter Skin

Eco Tan Winter Skin
product of the month 

Our featured Product of the Month for July is Eco Tan's Winter Skin moisturiser. Winter Skin is an organic daily moisturiser that builds to a beautiful honey tan after a few applications. This allows you to achieve the perfect personalised tan. It contains gorgeous rose flower and hydrates your skin without hidden nasties. Every ingredient is organic or natural so it contains no synthetics. Like all of Eco Tan's products the Organic Winter Skin is certified by the Organic Food Chain. Winter Skin is vegan friendly and accredited by Choose Cruelty Free which means its not tested on animals, so it's kind to the planet. 

Eco Tan was created by Gold Coast eco mum Sonya Driver. Many years ago her beloved sister was diagnosed with a melanoma. Sonya knew that she had to find a safe alternative to the harmful UV rays, but after researching the ingredients of spray tans she realised many contained harmful chemicals. So she started working on mixing up a natural tan using the best Mother Nature had to offer. The result was Eco Tan. 


 

Sonya says "We must remember our skin is our largest organ and much of what we put onto it gets absorbed into the blood stream." Eco Tan contains organic and natural ingredients like Cacoa (chocolate), herbs, flower extracts, fruit extracts and Chamomile. So you can be sure that when you use Eco Tan products, they are 100% safe for your skin with no nasty chemicals or synthetic ingredients. "I use certified organics and naturals in all my formulas. I will not compromise quality or safety for the mighty dollar. "



Winter Skin is the perfect daily moisturiser for the winter months. With less time spent in the sun, your skin tends to be a little pale during winter, so daily application of Eco Tan's Winter Skin will help transform your skin from fair to beautiful honey tan in no time. 

Best of all when you purchase Eco Tan products your supporting an eco-friendly Australian family run business. Eco Tan is made in Australia with only the best organic ingredients. Eco Tan Winter Skin is available online at www.EcoTan.com.au and from leading health food stores, beauty spas and selected pharmacies in Australia.
