A hydrated skin makes for a happier face
There is no tingling, though I don't have sensitive skin, and the product feels cooling — thanks to that cucumber extract — and I'm impressed by how soft and resurfaced my skin feels after the first use. Though recommended use is twice daily, I used it once a day, alternating between morning and nights because I've been guilty of over-exfoliating. Also, I live in a mild and ideal climate so I cannot complain of dryness or dehydration.
I am 43 years old, though, and my skin does need regular hydration. Besides, I am always happy to try a product that is going to help my skin absorb more from the products I apply, and this one is a great prep product as it resets and balances my skin before my serum and moisturiser.
After a week my skin was visibly more hydrated, brighter and definitely more plumped. It's looking happier, which is making me happy. I'm using a little less moisturiser as a result and following it with sunscreen every morning — no exceptions.

23 unidentified bodies await burial papers: North West health department
The burials have taken place in Kanana and Stilfontein in accordance with legal provisions that allow the burial of unidentified people once all efforts to identify them have been exhausted. 'We have at least 30 and more to conduct identification processes and beyond that the law empowers government to conduct mass funerals.' Mothibedi also addressed public concern about the transparency of the process, saying the department has made efforts to involve communities and trace the identities of the deceased. 'We waited for more than four months with calls made for community members to come forward with information to help us identify the bodies. We have extracted DNA from the bodies and archived them in case someone comes forward later to make a claim,' he said. 'It is not true the department has kept burials secret. Burials of unidentified bodies happen all the time and are normally carried out without fanfare. There are no invitations to mass funerals.' Authorities are appealing to anyone with missing family members to contact the health department or local authorities, as DNA profiles remain available for future identification. TimesLIVE

Kenton Wellness Festival offers five days of healing
The coastal town of Kenton-on-Sea will welcome wellness enthusiasts from near and far for the first-ever Kenton Wellness Festival from June 18 to 22. The festival offers five days of healing through a soul-nourishing blend of wellness practices, expert talks, immersive workshops and a tranquil coastal connection. Presented by A Taste of Wellness, Eastern Cape, the event invites residents and visitors alike to slow down, reset and explore a wide spectrum of holistic health approaches in one of SA's most beautiful natural settings. A holistic journey for the mind, body and soul each day begins with movement sessions including Hatha, Vinyasa, Kundalini and sculpt yoga, as well as Pilates. From 9am to 12.30pm daily, participants can enjoy a carefully curated series of morning talks and presentations from expert wellness practitioners. Ayurveda, sound healing, ozone therapy and somatic yoga are just a few of the approaches to healing that will be explained. Wellness-themed talks hosted at Kenton's top restaurants will take place at lunchtime, while 'curate-your-own' workshops ranging from aromatherapy, crystal healing and journaling to cookery masterclasses, mindful art and dream incubation will be held in the afternoons. Evenings are a time to unwind and will feature guided meditations, sound baths, free dance, live music and sunset yoga and dinners. Flexible festival access (golden ticket) costs R600. This includes the full five-day access to the morning sessions (9am to 12.30pm), including daily talks, taster sessions, Q&As and practitioner meet-and-greets. Day passes, at R180, offer access to that day's morning programme. Afternoon and evening fringe workshops can be booked separately via Quicket, allowing participants to design a personalised wellness experience. This carefully curated event is open to everyone.
