Best Aus skincare for overseas gifts

Hi all,

I’ve got a bunch of presents for my family in Canada and I want to add in some nice Australian brand skin care for my aunt and cousin as everything else could be gobbled up by the boys.

To help understand what they might like:

- My aunt is quite outdoorsy and loves to garden and be in nature.

- My cousin is also outdoorsy but a little less than my aunt and loves going out to concerts and has 2 young kids. She does wear makeup but I can see what the makeup Reddit has to say for that if yall aren’t sure.

I just want them to feel pampered and loved and have things they can’t get in Canada.

So please what Australian things would make you feel really happy if you got it in a pamper package?

Best bamboo sheets? Which should I buy?

I’m a hot sleeper and I’ve read bamboo sheets are good and that they are better for dealing with animal fur as our dog sleeps up on the bed with us.

But I’m not sure what brand is good. I’m willing to if it’s a good brand pay the money for it if it’ll last a long time.

Best headphone for music quality, battery life and comfort and noise cancelling

I had the old Bose I think comfort quiet but they are 6 years old and don’t want to pair to my phone anymore plus I feel I deserve an upgrade.

These will be mainly music and podcasts and needs good noise cancelling because I don’t cope well with background noise.

I also wear glasses and need them to be comfortable especially for travel as these will be my travel and dog walk headphones. So since these will also be worn on the airplane I probably need a wireless but has option for wire to connect to their tvs on the plane. I do have a dongle thing for that already.

Also good battery life is key because I never remember to charge them and I loved I could go months and not have to charge my Bose headphones.

I’ve read a couple articles but I know nothing and some of the ones the articles recommended you have already said are a terrible choice.

I’m happy to pay up to $400 for a really good pair that will last me years. Also we got sales on currently in Australia where I am so if it’s more than $400 let me know and I might be able to find it cheaper.

Thank you so much for your help!

Vintage 1950s dresses

Im trying to find 1950s silhouette dresses for my 2 bridesmaids. My preference if I can manage it is mustard yellow or moss green or olive green as my dress is a warm peachy terracotta colour and we’ve decided that other warm colours would look best.

I’d prefer a block colour or if it’s patterned not too intense so it doesn’t clash too much.

Are there any stores in Sydney or op shops that could be recommended? Or websites you trust more? I’ve been looking at azazie and found some that could work but we are trying to avoid fast fashion if we can.

It would be amazing if we could thrift the dresses but given that I’m wanting warm solid tones I might have to go with fast fashion dresses.

Any suggestions or recommendations would be so helpful.

These are some I don’t mind from Azazie:
