  • Where has this been!!

    As I child I remember going to school after the night before my mum doing a Nit treatment & smelling like tea tree oil & all the kids asking if my hair has nits because they can smell the treatment hahah. I love that this doesn’t cause a smell. It’s so much easier than trying to clean the nit brush. Would definitely recommend the price seems reasonable.

  • Amazing

    Somehow my little girl got nits in lockdown.
    I panicked and then I remembered we had the V Comb.
    She has long curly hair but the comb was easy to use, easy to clean.
    She was more than happy to sit and watch tv while Mummy played with her hair.
    Thank you v comb

  • Thorough and easy to use

    With 5 young children, it’s inevitable that our household faces a headlice issue from time to time. It’s always a nightmare when it comes to the girls’ long hair – we’ve tried the old-fashioned lice combs, a variety of sprays, oils and other commercially available and home remedies, and it’s always hard. The Licetec comb was so easy to use and didn’t require any products to be added to the hair, which was probably my favourite part. It was so satisfying to be able pull the comb through the hair and see the results in the little mesh catcher! We actually also used the comb on the baby’s cradlecap and it worked an absolute dream. I would absolutely recommend the Licetec comb to any parent with kids at school and preschool, it solves the headlice problem in one go without buying any chemicals or making up home remedies.

  • So easy to use!

    What a fantastic product, so simple & convenient to use. I wish I had this before, instead of using the chemical products that were awful & so messy to use. The V-comb A1 is mess free, easy to use & can be used on .multiple children if needed.

  • Revolutionary Product

    I have two kids at primary school and one at daycare. Unfortunately head lice is a reoccurring issue for us, and the kids hate the usual treatment they have to endure. This device is a game changer. It is so simple to use, and less painful than the traditional method of combining out over and over. It’s great that you can see all the nasties caught in the bag. I will recommend this to all the school parents!

  • Minimizes so much time

    The v comb a1 is such a brilliant invention, my mum is so upset that they didnt have these around when she was raising us six kidsand 4 of us being girls with very long hair. My daughter actually looked forward to me doing her hair for the first time ever, she didnt once complain and we captured ecerything. Just make sure to brush your childs hair before using.

  • Any Parent Of Kids Needs This Product!

    This was one of those reviews that I was super happy to test out, but at the same time my worse nightmare. The thought of head lice makes me feel ill in the stomach.

    Before being selected to review the Licetec V-Comb A1 I was actually unaware that anything like this was available. My usual method of removing head lice from my kids hair involved using a nit/head lice removal chemical, hair conditioner and a truck load patience. So being able to use a product like the Licetec V Comb A1 really excites me.

    The V-Comb A1 comes with everything you need to remove head lice. The best part is that is rechargeable, which means you can use it anywhere. It comes in a convenient container which stores all of the parts neatly. The V-Comb comes with some charge, so I was able to get straight to work.

    If I had to describe the V-Comb A1 it would be a combination of a comb and vacuum to remove and suck head lice and eggs into an internal barrel. One button to turn on and off and it wasn’t too noisy. You can hygienically dispose of the internal capture filter without the need to touch it. Simply unlock the main body of the unit, then place over the bin and the capture filter will slide straight out. You get a total of 4 capture filters, but you can purchase these separately once you run out.

    I used this on my 5 year old son who’s hair is short and on my 11 year old daughter who’s hair is shoulder length. I used a brush first to ensure there were no knots in the kid’s hair. They recommend starting from the nape of the neck and going up. The comb has two angle settings, straight and raking.

    With my daughter’s hair I did have to section it off first, then I separated her hair into small sections no wider than the teeth of the comb before passing the comb through. You start as close to the sculp as possible and pass the comb through each section a few times.

    With my son’s hair I just started from the nape of his neck and just worked my way up passing the comb through over and over. The comb easily glided through both the kid’s hair, but the comb did snag a few times and the kids were quite quick to yell out when this happened.

    It was not long before I could see the live head lice moving around trapped in the capture filter. YUCK!!! I could see both the live head lice and their eggs. While this was disgusting to see, I knew the V-Comb A1 was actually working.

    Overall, I think the Licetec V-Comb A1 is a brilliant product for anyone who is after an allergen & chemical free headlice removal system. No matter when my next head lice infestation is, I’m ready thanks to Licetec V Comb A1. Highly recommend.

  • Effective and Safe to Use. Total Money Saver.

    I have tried using different head lice shampoo for my kid but I found Licetec V Comb to be the most effective and safe one to use. Other shampoos have a chemical kind of smell and are unable to immediately kill all lice so you keep on using the shampoo.
    With Licetec V Comb , you can immediately see results by 80% compared to shampoos. You are also saving money with the Liecetec V Comb as you do not need to keep on buying shampoo. What a way to save on money.
    I highly recommend Licetec V Comb!

  • Absolute Game changer

    This device is so easy to use and helped resolve our little lice issue pain-free and stink-free. My son loved avoiding the shampoo smell & we loved the fact you can use it on the whole family quickly. The overall experience was great and I’ll be recommending this to everyone at school during the next dreaded outbreak!

  • Too good to be true

    I have been excited and waiting for head lice to rear their ugly heads since i received the V-COMB A1 in the mail. Today i finally got to try it out on my 17yr old Daughter’s head. We set it up and charged it which was pretty simple. Then we brushed out the knots and started the process of combing. This is where the claim of it being gentle is proven to be nothing but lies. Metal combs are never gentle when my children’s hair is involved. Besides the hair continuously getting caught in the comb, we had to keep stopping to re-brush all the knots out.
    We were kinda grossed out at the live bugs running around in the capture filter thing. But also excited to see that at least that claim was true. After the comb being too time consuming, loud and painful my Daughter opted for conditioner and combing method.

    With the warmer weather and ending lockdown, my kids and their friends not only share happiness of getting together again, however, they also shared head lice.
    Thanks to V-Comb A1. Made my job much easier and also much less Ouches… The only thing I am not 100% happy with V-Comb A1 is that with longer hair, it is a little hard to comb through.

    This product is great.

  • V-comb

    My step-daughter was coming home with headlice every other week for a good period of a year. This comb made life a hell of a lot simpler as I found the combs would just sweep past alot of the smaller headlice. I absolutely dread getting rid of the headline as they totally grose me out and the work you have to put in, with washing everything each time there is a outbreak, and doing each kids head at the same time. It’s so time consuming and very tiring.

  • Easy and fun to use

    My stepdaughter has issues with “bugs” coming home from school. This product made combing and checking her hair fun. It was easy to use and she was using it herself after school. The light and mesh catch feature is great to see if there are any love or eggs being removed from the hair. I love that it is gentle on the hair while being very effective at removing any lice and eggs. I haven’t tried this wet yet but probably wouldn’t recommend it for this. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to trial this product in our home.

    This was easy to use and saved so much time. When you have children with sensory issues with their hair, getting lice is a nightmare for you. This product made this a lot easier for myself and my children. It meant no meltdowns and less time with me touching their hair.

  • Easy to use for the whole family

    Before the V-Comb it was what seemed like endless hair combing searching for the little pests and their eggs with the biggest problem being that there was no one to check Mum’s head and paranoid or not we all know that when we hear that word our heads start to itch. The V-Comb cut the combing time by more than half, capturing the live critters so they couldn’t escape and jump back on and removed the eggs. No more putting gunk on their hair to kill them, washing it out and then combing several times and repeating the process every 3-4 days. I found it best to V-Comb every 3 days for a week, just to be sure, and it only took a few minutes once I got the hang of it. Best part was that if I was feeling itchy I could run it through my own hair and have peace of mind.

  • WOW!

    We have used several different chemical based treatments before… including ‘sensitive’ or gentle ones – my kids ages 6 and 2 find that process quite traumatic with the smell.

    We recently had an infestation at home and had to treat the whole family. Mess, smell and chemical free – it was a simple and easy process.

    At first I was not sure that the price warranted the device, but as an RN I have spoken to many nurse colleagues and more mothers about the benefits and that the price tag is week worth it.
    A great investment

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.

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

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!

  • I have been a purchaser of Sandhurst goods ever since they first appeared on supermarket shelves and still buy it to this day. The Sandhurst brand is the best without a doubt. This year I have not been able to find the Sandhurst cheese stuffed baby capsicums anywhere. I have tried to get on the Sandhurst site, but no luck with what they make. Help – these are such a wonderful addition to a salad.

  • I Love a good charcuterie board. I Love all the different options all on the one board. I love to do a chocolate board when we have guests over, it’s a fun way to do dessert after dinner. The kids love seeing everything layed out so they can pick and choose.

  • This is great for the grandchildren they love them as they use them as finger food and make up their own meal and use plenty of ingredients including meat and cheese on the dips and crackers. We keep it simple with the Sandhurst’s products as it is a meal in every jar and the kids love them.

  • This looks like the perfect relaxed way to have a picnic! I am loving the idea of this! Just bring along lots of fillings and plenty of cheeses and breads and of course a little alcohol and you’re all set. This sounds like the perfect way to catch up with friends!

  • Certainly most welcome for summer, and would be wonderful for the festive season. I can see this platter on the table Christmas Eve, when we get together with our neighbours.

  • This is timely and helpful, thanks – I aspire to entertain more and tips to make it less stressful are very welcome.

  • Charcuterie boards are the absolute best! We do these so often in the warmer months because there’s something for the whole family. People pick and choose what they like and there’s no complaints because there’s so many different options to choose from, everyone is happy. It’s such a simple stressful way to make dinner.

  • I absolutely adore finger food and this style of feeding people when we have family and friends at our home; or when we go out for a picnic, bbq or get together. These types of food are so easy to source and to buy and to prepare and to happily eat.

    • Yes I agree, finger foods are easy and yummie ! And you can assemble a healthy enough plate (certainly when you add salads, cheeses, nuts, fruits, boiled eggs, olives and rustic breads) that it can certainly can replace a meal (either lunch or dinner). Everyone happy and no hours of preparation in the kitchen :)

      • Also; the other bonus is less mess to clean up when cutlery is not needed. Finger food is the best for laid back and relaxed get togethers. There is always such a clam and relaxed feel to a finger food meal without the need for any fancy and stuffy table settings.

  • The simplest way to entertain.

  • I love the looks of different finger foods. I don’t think it is hard to put something together and I had many afternoons hanging out with many mums and all the children at the Cul the sac we then lived. At times I had 8 mums coming with over 40 kids. Many sweet memories indeed

  • Charcuterie Boards and Antipasto boards are so good. I love them, i love the variety of foods you can put on them and they are so great for entertaining and enjoying with family or friends. It is something i like to make whenever i have friends over as you can enjoy and pick away while you are catching up. Great entertaining option.

  • I absolutely adore an antipasto spread. There’s nothing better than having a colourful plate of charcuterie and antipasto shared with loved ones. I grew up with my Mum making the most lush, long table of nibblies on celebrations and it’s something that my siblings and I carry on today. It brings us all together.
