E45: Glowing season for every occasion

E45

Our skin reacts to changing seasons. Start paying attention to how your skin feels and looks, and gently tailor your skincare routine to give it the love it needs.

Winter

Cold weather, indoor heating and winds can sap the moisture in your skin. Use hydrating serum, go easy on exfoliation, and keep using sunscreen. Look for intensely moisturising products with nourishing oils or emollients.

Summer

High humidity can disrupt pH balance, lead to clogged pores and parch your skin out. Use a gentle foaming or gel cleanser that removes oil, wear sunscreen during the day and moisturise at night. Look for lightweight products with antioxidants such as vitamin E and avoid anything that might clog pores.

E45’s new face care range for dry, sensitive, and eczema-prone skin has an answer for every season.

The E45 Daily Protect Moisturiser with SPF 30, UVA and UVB filters is an intensely hydrating face cream that soothes, softens, and protects. Three emollient ingredients1 lock in moisture, help restore your natural skin barrier, and give you long-lasting hydration without clogging your pores.

The E45 Face Night Cream is another intensive moisturising cream. Formulated with five deeply nourishing oils and rich in antioxidants, it hydrates, softens,2 and promotes skin recovery from daily damage (like the summer sun or winter wind). It’s light, quick-absorbing and won’t clog pores.

The E45 Face Foaming Cleanser reaches deep into your pores to remove dirt, impurities, and make-up without compromising your skin’s natural moisture barrier.3 It’s soothing, hydrating, and nourishishing, and helps your skin stay plump and youthful.

The E45 Lips & Dry Spots Balm is so versatile you’ll want to use it all year around. Our lips are particularly vulnerable to changes in weather, but you can apply this nourishing number on your body, face, and hands. Made with purified lanolin, Vitamin E, and beeswax, this balm leaves your skin feeling hydrated, soft, and supple.5

The NEW E45 face care product range is available from selected independent pharmacies, Clicks and Dis-Chem stores. The range is also available from Takealot. For more information, visit E45 and join the conversations on FacebookYouTubeTik Tok and Instagram.

About us

Actually, Home Food and Travel offers a lot more than just reviews of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.  We also visit great destinations, receive advice from interior designers and stop to smell the roses and taste the coffee.

Our team of journalists are seasoned travels and love visiting the myriad of exciting places around South Africa.  Whether it is off the beaten track or in the heart of the top attractions of the country, we’ll be there,

Home Food and Travel advice on finding the right accommodation

So what is the right accommodation?  Well more often than not, it’s your travel budget that dictates the type of accommodation that you choose. 

Expensive is not always better.  Our team at Home Food and Travel will tell you that they have camped in areas with limited ablutions and had a wonderful holiday.  They have also spent a night in a five star hotel only to be disappointed because their expectations exceeded the experience.

The reason for your travels will also affect your choice.  A business trip requires different amenities to a beach holiday. 

Our articles, reviews and experiences can certainly help you make your decision.

Restaurants with a good mix of service, food and ambiance

To my mind a great restaurant offers three things – excellent service, great food and a wonderful ambiance.  Of these, service is the most important. 

No matter that the food is delicious and the setting delightful, poor service can ruin the occasion.  However, great service combined with mediocre meal and a plane jane restaurant can still be a pleasant night out.

We’ve eaten in restaurants that are really dirty but with incredible food and couldn’t help but give a rave review.  We’ve also hardly noticed what we ate because the setting was just amazing.

However, the best restaurants come with the best of service, food and ambiance.

Spas are the ultimate relaxation aid

How do you know when you have had a great spa experience?  The answer, of course, is when you doze off on the treatment table. 

Well that’s our theory anyway.  It also doesn’t take a grand location with enormous facilities for a spa to be really good

A small, personal spa that is owner run can result in the best massage you have ever experienced.  However, the grand spas in five star hotels offer unsurpassed facilities in an environment that just makes the stress in your shoulders and neck melt away before you even finish checking in.

Adventure!

You don’t have to be an adrenaline junky to enjoy an exciting experience.  In fact, what are commonly termed adventure activities usually have incredibly high safety standards and unblemished safety records.

Ziplining, bungy jumping and shark cage diving are all very safe.  It’s just that our mind tells us we are craaazzzzyyyy to be doing this.

On the road to great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities

If you’re driving, be safe and make use of all the wonderful farm stalls that populate South Africa’s open roads.

If you overhear somebody asking a lot of questions or see someone taking photos of empty bedrooms chances are it’s one of our Home Food and Travel team members.

We’re out looking or those great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.

See you on the road!
