While the damaging effects of the sun can be scary, you don't need to miss out on fun in the sun, especially if you know how to protect yourself. You don't want to end up sunburnt, in the short term, with age spots (or worse) in the longer term. Here's our tips.

Heading to the beach?

Posted on January 03 2019

Spending a day at the beach is easily one of Australia's favourite pastimes - but it pays to be prepared, so you can bring home memories of a wonderful day, rather than the opposite!

Hey beautiful!

When we worked with Amelia Stubbs, curve model and body confidence advocate, we knew we were working with a woman who embraced her beauty. We all should. But sometimes we get distracted or influenced by what we think the current definition of beauty is.

Inspired by real women

Why does one woman confidently showcase her body on the beach while another may not be comfortable baring so much skin? While one woman may use her swimwear to express her personality and call attention, another may want a swimsuit for comfort, another for coverage.

Little did I know that, despite these seemingly unachievable measurements, she had struggled with her body image her entire life. And we, her best friends, had no idea.

What's in a name? Una

Posted on July 26 2018

My Grandmother’s name was Una. She was the type that never left the house without her lipstick on. She always applied her lipstick, blotted with a tissue, and set with powder.

Una is the inspiration behind the Es Una name. Inspired by a real woman to give women confidence.

Like many families, mine love spending time at the beach each summer. All decked out with our bathers on, my kids and husband would wear a rashie (or rash vest) over the top. I could never find one that didn’t fit like a sausage skin, so wrapped myself in a towel or sarong, or simply kept my clothes on!
