Blooming beautiful

To show off their beauty products, Garnier created the Garden of Garnier in Mt Eden today - complete with a floristry lesson from Sandra of Roses Florist - teaching beauty media how to create beautiful looks of the botanical kind.

Garnier took us through their latest releases; Pure Active ExfoBrusher for teens to exfoliate with microbristles, the popular Eye Roll-On now tinted with a concealor, and Nutrisse Radiant Blondes ammonia-free hair colour.

Various product groups were beautifully colour-matched to bouquets around the garden with colourful irises, cherry blossom and orchids.

Over divine fresh raw juices and fruit tarts, we then got a tutorial on creating five easy floral looks at home, and got to take home a vintage-style green glass bowl of freesias.

Sandr demonstrated the branches in a bowl, white poppies in a bowl, and an orchid stem in a tall vase.
