			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well, its done &#8230; after years of saying no, I decided early December to open my own Beauty Room &#8211; to operate alongside my hairsalon and its done&#8230; We opened Tease Botanix Hair &amp; Beauty Rooms a few weeks ago.</p>
<p>Now, as I&#8217;ve been growing the Tease Botanix product range, clientele and stockists, I reduced my hairsalon hours to fit into 2 days per week.  I do enjoy my small regular clientele &#8211; many have known me since I was an apprentice, so I&#8217;d find it hard to give it all up completely!  And actually I don&#8217;t have to, I&#8217;m a multi-tasking woman after all!</p>
<p>So Holly has started working alongside me and its lovely having her here.  She is an award winning beauty therapist and is extremely experienced at Tease Botanix facials, and our products, as she was one of my first stockists!  A natural fit for my clients and I.  Holly works 3 days per week (Thurs 10am -8pm, Fri 10am &#8211; 5pm, Sat 10am &#8211; 4pm).</p>
<p>And we are hosting an Open Day too.  Come visit us on Saturday 4th February &#8230;. if you are wanting to know more about our products, a free skin consultation, free makeup application and a glass of bubbles &#8230;. come to our Open Day!  We also have prizes for the first 15 people to book in for our luxurious Tease Botanix Signature Facials.</p>
<p>Tease Botanix Hair &amp; Beauty Rooms &#8220;<strong>Open Day</strong>&#8220;- Saturday 4th February 10am &#8211; 4pm.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well, Christmas is over, and the New Year celebrations are done with, and with a wet week inbetween alot of us were feeling the strains of a hard year &#8211; hoping that when it turned from 2011 to 2012 something magic was going to happen &#8230; well it did!</p>
<p>Nearly everyone I have spoken to cites 2011 as one of the worst years they have experienced for a long time.  I count myself in that role call for personal reasons, not business thankfully &#8211; it was my annul horriblis (oh you know, what the Queen said in the year of divorces within her family).  Business grew from strength to strength during tough economic times, while my relationship faded beyond repair due to unrelated external forces.  It was tough, but it probably spurred me on to work harder, thus the growth &#8211; so lol, could I count that as a &#8216;blessing&#8217; after all??!!</p>
<p>Anyway, 2012 started well, spending it with one of my best friends family &#8211; who I adore.  I laughed, danced and had a glass or two of bubbles, drove home through a checkpoint knowing I was perfectly able to do so, and the next day woke up to sunshine and a vege garden begging for attention.  I enjoyed an hour or so picking fresh veges (and weeds) while my cats and my dog watched, before the day really began.</p>
<p>I also decided this year was going to be the best yet &#8211; positive energy out means positive energy flowing towards you.  And I &#8211; through my business &#8211; will pay it forward this year.  Instead of our usual &#8216;&#8221;percentage of our profit going towards a charity&#8221;, this year I&#8217;m paying it forward &#8211; already knowing our profits will cover this = POSITIVE THINKING!    So this morning I have been online and have sorted out monthly donations to World Vision, became a Guardian Angel (for abused children in New Zealand &#8211; something very dear to my heart from my days in the Police), and our local SPCA.  This will be on top of the clubs, groups &amp; associations I normally get asked to donate products to for their fundraising purposes.   <img src='http://www.teasebotanix.co.nz/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Pay it forward people and lets see if we can collectively lift this positive energy most of us are feeling even higher, now that 2011 is behind us.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Another idea floating in my head for a while is to open a Beauty Room also.  So I am!  In January Tease Botanix Beauty Room will open to run alongside my existing Hair Studio.</p>
<p>Tease Botanix Beauty Room will be run by Holly Pedersen, one of my original stockists so she is very experienced in Tease Botanix products.</p>
<p>We plan to open the Beauty Room on the days I work in the Hair Salon, and then we can expand from there.  In the meantime Holly also will continue running her own clinic, Gratify Skin &amp; Beauty, at the Mount on the other days.</p>
<p>We both are very excited!  Official opening day will be 11th January 2012, after we both have had our Xmas holidays.  :-)</p>
<p>Look out for the fabulous promotions Holly and I will be doing also &#8230; stay tuned people!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One thing I love about Spring time is seeing all the baby animals frolicking about, as well as the blossoms budding up knowing that fruit is starting to form &#8230; Rosehips are forming now too, and although harvest time is a wee way off yet it&#8217;s exciting to see these bright red hips.</p>
<p>Not only do we use a top quality certified organic Rosehip Oil in our new Immortelle Rejuvenating Creme, but also in our October featured product &#8230;<br />
our fabulous <strong>Rosehip Eye &amp; Lip Creme!!  </strong>Normally $46.90, now only <strong>$36.90</strong>!</p>
<p>Our <strong>Rosehip Eye &amp; Lip Creme </strong>not only contains a good dollop of Rosehip Oil, but also collagen supporting Co-Enzyme Q10 and skin plumping Hyaluronic Acid. It also received great reviews from Laura Weaser &#8211; The Weekend Sun, 29/07/11. How can you not love this product!!</p>
<p>Rosehip Oil is unique among vegetable oils.  It contains retinol (Vitamin A), is high in vitamin C and essential fatty acids (omega-6 &amp; omega-3).  It is used to treat dermatitis, acne and eczema, is great for mature and sun burnt skin as well as wrinkles.  It is frequently used to heal scarring and diminish photo-aging.  Vitamin A helps to delay the effects of skin aging, assists with cell regeneration, promoting collagen and elastin levels to increase, which results in firmer, smoother, more youthful skin with greater elasticity. Phew! What a powerful little hip!!  Click <a href="http://teasebotanix.dremus.com/index.php?route=product/product&amp;product_id=12202">here to view, or to order online</a>.</p>
<p>This product offer is online only and not available from our stockists.</p>
