  • Loved it

    I was absolutely thrilled to receive this product to trial. The bottle was beautiful and simple, and looked lovely on display in my bathroom. It had a velvety texture that was just the right consistency without being too heavy, and the scent wasn’t overpowering but light and summery and enough for other people to notice, and they noticed and asked with interest. It has made my skin feel so soft and nourished.
    I have been using this religiously and will continue to do so.

    This has got to be the best lotion I’ve ever used. The moisturising element is fantastic- my skin has never felt so good. I love how light weight the lotion goes on and how quickly it absorbs into your skin. The scent is also light and perfect. I use this every day and night to get my skin smooth and soft. Love it!

  • Smooth to apply, fast absorbing, soft skin.

    This lotion was quite surprising to me, it was thick when put onto skin but smoothed out an absorbed very well leaving beautiful soft moisturised skin! The scent is very light yet refreshing. Unlike other lotions that are thick and gloopy, that never seem to absorb no matter how much you rub it in, you will not find that with this one. It is perfect when I’m in a rush in mornings busy getting kids ready as well as myself for work I can quickly use this lotion and not have to worry about taking forever to rub it in or it feeling yuck an oily. It feels lovely. I will be buying it again.

    I bought this after seeing reviews on here and I wasn’t disappointed. The texture is great and it isn’t too heavy. The best thing about it is the smell. It isn’t overpowering and smells so fresh. The smell lasts on the skin into the day. Definitely purchasing again,

  • etch & ethos Nourishing Summer Citrus Body Lotion

    I found the etch & ethos Nourishing Summer Citrus Body Lotion to be lightweight and non greasy. I like the simple but pretty packaging and the handy pump pack. I didn’t overly enjoy the scent however. I did not detect any “summer citrus” which is the only let down of this otherwise nice lotion. The light fragrance might suit others but I myself would have preferred a slightly stronger scent like a lemongrass or something fresh and clean scented.

  • Even my partner that hates all moisturisers, liked it!

    Love that this came in a pump bottle as it really does make it so convenient to leave on the bathroom bench and quickly apply after a shower or before bed. The formula was lightweight, not greasy or heavy and absorbed quickly into my skin. Best of all it passed the fusspot partner test. He thinks all moisturisers are smelly and sticky, but he actually liked this one!

  • Super dry to super happy

    I have always really suffered from dry skin, especially on my legs. This moisturizer really surprised me, it went on super smooth and really absorbed into my skin well, giving my legs a super smooth appearance and didn’t dry out after like an hour which I have found some moisturizers do. Would definitely be buying more of this product.

  • Lovely Summery Lotion

    etch & ethos Nourishing Summer Citrus Body Lotion is a lovely body lotion. It is very lightweight and absorbs quickly – unlike some heavy/greasy moisturisers. The Summer Citrus scent is refreshing and not overpowering – I normally purchase unscented lotions as I don’t like fragrances so this was a pleasant change. I would happily purchase etch & ethos Nourishing Summer Citrus Body Lotion and recommend it to other mums who are in need of a few moments of pampering!

  • After shave lotion

    Today after I shaved my legs I decided to use Etch & Ethos on my legs. Oh my goodness it was the most soothing sensation. It felt fresh, soothing and so calming. All the itchiness and burning sensation from the shaving process disappeared instantly and didn’t return unlike with other moisturisers I’ve used. Plus one for Etch & Ethos as a soothing after shave lotion ????

  • Great lotion

    I really enjoyed using this lotion. It use easy to use & was quick drying (who like their clothes sticking to them ????). My sensitive skin (I’ve had eczema since my last pregnancy) didn’t flare up using this lotion, which is a win. Even my nearly 2 year old used it. My skin feels soft & smooth with no dry patches. The scent is very floral, maybe a bit too girly for me, next time I might use the citrus one for a more refreshing lotion. I love it.

  • Hydrates without the grease factor!!

    My pet hate with all creams and lotions is the “grease factor”. I hate feeling like after you use it you still have a coating layered on your skin. I was so impressed that this soaked into my skin so fast and left it feeling hydrated and soft, but without leaving any greasy coating. It even passed the test of being able to open a door handle after using it! Smells delish, 10/10, would buy again!

Article Buon Appetito! A Busy Mum’s Guide To Memorable, Simple Summer Entertaining

Buon Appetito! A Busy Mum’s Guide To Memorable, Simple Summer Entertaining

I fondly remember slow, summer afternoons with family and friends gathered around a table of delicious finger-food during my childhood – the adults chatting and laughing, the kids pretending they understood the jokes. My parents had continued their Mediterranean traditions long after settling in Australia – and the simple joy of an effortlessly elegant gathering was one of my favourites.

What I don’t remember is my parents ever being stressed about the gatherings. It all just seemed to ‘come together’. Ah, how times have changed!

There’s something about the Italian style of entertaining that’s still so alluring in our fast-paced family lives. The idea of La Dolce Vita: a sweet life surrounded by family, friends, food and minimal fuss. Which is why we’ve enlisted the help of the entertaining experts at Sandhurst to share easy tips for elegant, memorable summer get-togethers.

We also asked our community of mums to share their tried and true, easy summer entertaining ideas, and we can’t wait to share them with you!

Euro-Inspired Entertaining

Sandhurst

Before we dive into the delicious world of sumptuous, simple summer entertaining, it helps to know a little about the inspiration behind our guide. And that’s the concept of Italian entertaining – where time is taken to lovingly grow ingredients, before enjoying them with those you love.

Established in 1988, Sandhurst was born from the time-honoured traditions of generations of the family behind the brand – a proud Italian Australian family passionate about quality produce sourced from world’s best growers.

At the helm of Sandhurst are brothers Mimmo and Ray Lubrano, who live and breathe the impeccable ingredients that become the centrepiece of so many gatherings in Australian family homes.

“Tradition is what we stand for. We’re custodians of Italian values,” explained Mimmo. “When we go to Italy we see it in our grandparents, our parents came from Italy in the 50s. The tradition is a set of values: honesty, teamwork, participation, family – all the things you would associate with Italian family are the values.”

And it’s these beautiful values that make summer gatherings in Australia an extension of the European table.

Easy Summer Entertaining Starts With … Time Saving Secrets!

Sandhurst

A sweet summer of entertaining doesn’t need to be stressful. In fact, it shouldn’t be. It’s a chance to spend time with loved ones. To press pause on life and make memories. And it can be simple! So here are some really easy tips for making your home the place where everyone wants to gather this summer.

Create An Entertaining Kit

Whether it’s pre-planned or you’ve had friends or family drop-in, having a few things ready to go immediately melts away any stress. Here are some things to include in a summer entertaining kit:

  • A red table cloth: It instantly says festive!
  • Some platters and serving dishes
  • Candles
  • Some quality antipasto ingredients that simply need to be decanted and enjoyed!

Many Hands Make Light Work

As mums, we tend to be our own worst enemy when it comes to delegating tasks. But remember, a summer of entertaining is about creating memories – not perfection. So let the kids help, and accept offers from your guests who’d like to bring something along to share.

“It can be overwhelming, so just delegate, and prepare. I do one dish prep per day and pop them in the freezer. Then they just need to be heated up. Let the kids do the decorating for you – plus keeps them busy!” – MoM Member Kirsty

Decorate With Happiness

There’s no need to pull out your finest crystal to pull off an elegant get together. Take a look around your home and garden to see what will bring your table to life. A bowl of lemons is a gorgeous addition, as is a bunch of gum leaves. Keep it simple and understated.

Sandhurst

Finger Food For The Win

Nothing says simple summer elegance more than a charcuterie board (or three!). When my friends and our families get together, it’s our go-to – every family is asked to ‘bring a board’. Some do savoury and some sweet, so we’re covered for a long afternoon of catching up.

“Food wise, I keep it simple by doing cold deli meats, cheeses, fresh fruits and veggies.” – MoM Member

But just because boards are easy to put together, doesn’t mean they can’t ooze elegance. And that comes down to including quality ingredients. Choosing Sandhurst products is the easiest way to guarantee the highest quality ends up on your table. We love the premise behind the brand: from our family to yours – it invokes that nostalgic feeling of shared stories, history, gatherings and family.

How To Put Together A Charcuterie Board 

Sandhurst article image

There are no right or wrong ways to create a charcuterie board, but to ensure a balance of textures and flavours try to include:

La Dolce Vita!

A summer of sophisticated entertaining doesn’t have to be hours and hours of work. We don’t want it to be! By grabbing some beautiful ingredients to fill your pantry next time you’re shopping, you’ll know that at a moment’s notice you’ll have everything you need for a Euro-inspired gathering. No fuss, but plenty of substance and style!
