All the goodness of the sea from Biotherm, Avon and Arbonne!

Biotherm Eau Oceane - skin-nourishing products to revitalize the body from top to toe: Marine Hydration Gel - 200ml - $36 - an ocean-blue coloured gel that contains marine source water, which stimulates a key protein in the skin's natural renewal cycle as well as being enriched with a five-strong ion complex: chloride, sodium, sulfates, magnesium and potassium - which regenerates the skin and boost the growth of epidermal cells by 34% after just six days; Eau Oceane - 100ml - $54 - an uplifting fresh aquatic floral fragrance infused with negative ions and sea source water with top notes of bergamot, citrus, water-based fruit notes and the elusive aroma of flowing water; a heart of salty sea notes, Jasmine Sambac and Paradisone; and base notes of freshly-crushed algae extract, musk, moss, cedarwood and dune flower.

I absolutely love the smell of this so knowing that it is actually benefiting my skin as well as my nose is a double win!
