SANKOFA DAY : GHANA

Been quite busy lately in between attending events, packing orders and preparing for our Sankofa Day in Ghana.  
Yes, it is almost time and due to overwhelming response after we sold out of the first 2 sets of tickets, we have decided to make this an open day. All those with tickets are entitled to a FREE swag bag.

Keeping fingers crossed that there is no rain and no power failure.

Bring a friend along not forgetting your purse or wallet and let us have a chat.



I am really looking forward to this and I hope you are too

Best wishes

How many of us dream of such idyllic setting on a dreary January day? Well, let Tropic Isle Living "transport" you to the Caribbean with the invigorating scent of either energising lemongrass [good for concentration] or the therapeutic cerasse bush bath/shower gel range


LEMONGRASS MINT ~ STRESS RELIEF
A deodorising blend of Caribbean herbs to help calm the nerves, sooth aches and pain and tingle your senses.

CERASSE ~ SKIN THERAPHY
A herbal blend of cerassee and rosemary to help moisturise/disinfect/deodorise the skin.


Fancy a spicy kick start in the morning? Try this duo:

GINGER ~ SOOTHING
Made with a twist of lime and ginger to help kick start your day. Great for a relaxing/stimulating wash for tired achy muscles.

ISLAND SPICE ~ ENERGY
Transport yourself to the warmth and sunny Carribbean island in the comfort of your home with a blend of spices to invigorate your senses.
