    18 hours ago by melissajack_ Ad / PR Gift - New from  @clarinsaus  ❤️ 1. For every purchase of Tonic Treatment Oil, Clarins makes a donation to the Arthritis Foundation + there's a super cute GWP right now including this cosmetic pouch and Tonic Bath and Shower concentrate. 2. Matte lips! Clarins Lip Perfector is a fave of mine & there are now 4 new shades in a velvety-matte finish. These aren't drying, uncomfortable products to wear, think creamy, soft and subtle. Paired with the new matte-finish Joli Rouge Crayon this is an epic lip-duo with staying power. 3. Nutri-Lumière range of 4 Pro-ageing products;

    2 days ago by melissajack_ Ad / Gifted - It's me! On holiday, a solid 8 if ever I saw one I wore this outfit on repeat during our roadie last week;  @rhind__  leggings, t-shirt, denim jacket and my  @crocsnewzealand  Classic Clogs. Its been a few years but my (always tired) feet are so happy for a comfy respite from my running and workout sneaks. FYI, I ran my half marathon last week in my Rhind Bike Shorts and they were budge-proof perfection yah  #nzmade ! . . . . . .  #comeasyouare   #crocs   #crocsjibbitz   #crocswomen   #thisis40   #mumswhorun   #mumlife   #mumsofig   #mumstyle   #comfycasual   #momstyle   #nz   #nzmum   #nzmums 
  • My little gingernut made ginger crunch – with a little bit of help from his big brother ♥︎ Everyone in our family loves to cook but Dave and I can’t always supervise when the mood strikes. The boys took one for the team whipped up this epic Feisty Ginger Crunch – I think this is my fave @huntergatherergourmet baking mix yet! Using minimal, whole food-focussed ingredients is what makes these mixes so different and SO yum, the boys only had to add oil, maple syrup and butter to the ingredients in the box! They can easily be made dairy free, too – check the

  • Ad.........and then we fell in to bed exhausted and slept the sleep of people who had done crazy, fun full-on Rotorua-y things for 3 days! @aurarotorua was a perfect option for us, right in the centre of town but quiet and restful. Walking distance to the lake front and Eat St but well appointed with free WiFi, Sky, heated pool and mineral pools if you just feel like staying in. The numerous socially conscious initiatives and sustainable practices that are woven into the Aura way of doing things are both commendable and also, super cool. Heck yes I

  • Ad. My facials give me away every time ‍♀️ Swipe across and check out how chill Ethan was on the Swoop Swing @velocity_valley and how I was equally cool, calm and collected - we were only hurtling towards the earth at 130 kmph, no biggie! I was made for this adrenalin junky life, obviously, whereas my children are just ridiculously unfazed by everything We finished off our epic Rotorua Roadie at Velocity Valley, an adventure playground perfect for blowing off some steam before we hit the road back to Aucks. As my shaking legs managed to stand after the incredible

    5 days ago by melissajack_ Ad: I could have given you the gratuitous IG hot tub shot, but.........let's get real. This is a family trip, we have two boisterous boys and the moments of serene, blissful soaking are few and far between when they have the opportunity to let loose in a pool. I was so relieved when we arrived at  @waikitevalleythermalpools  and there were kids there, having fun! If you want the relaxing geothermal /mineral pool experience but have kids that make any relaxing experience somewhat out of reach, this could be the spot for you and your family! The big Settlers Pool is

    5 days ago by melissajack_ Ad: Saturday brunch inspo! But, def don't swipe if you're hungry! Get off the main drag, head around the lake a wee bit and you'll find one of the most BOMB cafés whose focus on artisan, organic and sustainable products and produce translates to epic food and a warm, family friendly vibe.  @OKEREFALLSSTORE  you are a breath of fresh air and a place to return to every time we are lucky enough to visit  @rotoruanz . We purchased homemade Bounty Bars to takeaway (which blew my mind!) and some of our fave  @jennyskitchentamarind  - I LOVE being able to find our
