These pants are amazing! I would wear these every day if I could, they are so extremely comfortable that Lululemon have categorised that as "naked". Try a pair on for yourself and you'll be converted too! Find them at Lululemon Robina Town Centre, those lovely ladies and gents will take supreme care of you while you are there. If you don't have a local Lulu store you can get yours online -www.lululemon.com.au

5. The Essentials Pack from Evohe

This range of completely natural skincare is divine, the ingredients smell amazing and feel even better. I have personally been using these products for 6 months and I cannot get enough of them! My recommendation is to pair this pack up with their mineral makeup and blush. They are also neighbours of ours - manufactured in Miami. You can purchase from them personally on Lemana Lane or find them online here -www.evohe.com.au

6. Malvern Star Cruisestar from Mikes Bikes

You may have noticed this baby in our awesome competition running through social media. It's one sweet ride and I know you are picturing yourself cruising down the beach, puppy in tow. The guys over at Mikes Bikes will provide you with wonderful service and your bike will come to you fully assembled and ready to go!www.mikesbikes.com.au

7. Eco Tan Essentials

One of our members put me on to the Pink Himalayan scrub a few months ago, it'll leave your skin not only exfoliated and fresh but also so smooth, soft and moisturised. The moisturiser is chemical free and feels good on the skin (it also comes in tinted). The Eco Tan Invisible tan provides a natural looking tan that fades gently and doesn't stink to the high heavens. This pack is a sure fire winner!www.ecotan.com.au

8. Foam Roller and Spiky Ball

These 2 buddies you may have a love/hate relationship with but ultimately, you will respect the effect that these two tools will have in loosening tight muscles all over your body. Used correctly these high quality devices will have you sighing with relief. Get yours in studio at Pilates & Co.

Our friends over at The Source have whipped up some delicious little packs and wrapped them up pretty so you can pop your feet up and congratulate yourself on a job well done! Check out these lovely gift hampers in store at the Miami One Shopping Centre.

10. Lifestraw

Ok, so I've never personally used one of these amazing gadgets before but how cool is it? This straw shaped water filter lets you turn 1000 litres of contaminated water into safe drinking water! You can drink from rivers and streams with the lifestraw. I think what I love about it most is how this company supports communities that don't have access to clean drinking water. You can purchase directly from the USA website or from BCF stores online and Australia wide -BCFLIFESTRAW
