FASHION ACTIVE WEAR X GENIE

It has been a fun and busy event calendar for Genie over the last two weeks! Check out all the fun events we got to juice up!

Topshop

Ivy Park launched in Topshop, Central last week amongst a buzz of lovely Topshop staff, press, bloggers, key influencers and models. The Topshop X Beyonce collaboration activewear flew off the shelves while DJ Eve Special had everybody happily bopping while they were shopping! The idea behind the collection is that the pieces are made of high performance technical and comfortable material but the pieces also looks cool enough you can rock up to meet your buddies for a coffee or juice after your workout! We served juices thoughout the launch day and for every Ivy Park item purchased, Topshop customers received a free Genie juice. Beyonce ethos for her new collection is ‘stay strong, healthy and happy’, which sounds pretty good to us! Go Team Girls!

Calvin Klein

We got to meet the lovely, fun team at Calvin Klein for a lunch time juice party – we spoke about juicing and cleansing, with lots of sampling and a juice for everyone to bring back to their desks! I think we even got a few new green juice converts! We did the talk in their fab show room looking out over the Harbour Front. We were lucky enough to check out their effortlessly cool performance wear, accessories, fragrances  and underwear.  The CK Performance Wear collection is everything you love from Calvin Klein, youthful, minimal, clean cut and modern. The Biebs, Kylie Jenner and FKA Twigs can be seen modeling for Calvin Klein looking smoking on billboards all around town at the moment. Check out the menu of juices we served to the Calvin Klein team!

WATER, WATER, WATER

GENIE WATER BOTTLE
Water we know we need to drink more, we get it already! Every beauty expert and health advocate in the world recommends it endlessly!  Scientists tell us that our body percentage is made up of 60-65% water so- it does make sense everything functions, feels and looks better when we are well oiled machines! To help get you in the habit of drinking more water we have these funky looking steel Genie water bottles available in store. So no more excuses! You can top up in the morning, pop it in your bag and gulp away at your desk, run around all day or dance all night! $100 available at ifc mall and Hollywood Rd, ‘Teeny Genie” stores.
Cameron-Diaz-1
Check out everyone’s favourite celeb girl crush Cameron Diaz and her helpful tip on chugging back the good stuff, from her ‘The Body Book’ :
‘Every night before I go to sleep, I fill up a big glass bottle with water and put it on my bathroom counter. First thing in the morning, right after I brush my teeth, I drink it. Because I know that during the night, while I am sleeping, all of that breathing in and out exhales a lot of moisture from my lungs. Imagine how much water you can lose during eight hours of breathing! Because we can’t replenish it while we are sleeping, it’s important to rehydrate once we wake. Once I drink the water in the bottle by my sink, I feel it immediately. I go from being a wilted plant to one that has just been rejuvenated by the rain.’
Alkaline Lemon and plain
LEMON AND PURE ALKALINE WATER

Genie’s alkaline water has a PH of 9.5 and is available with lemon essential oil or good old fashioned plain. Alkaline water will help neutralise acid in the bloodstream, leading to increased oxygen levels and faster hydration – hanging hungover heads take note! If your body is too acidic due to processed foods, medication, stress, pollution etc to compensate your body has to borrow minerals from your bones, teeth and organs to neutralize the excess acidity. Therefore it is important for the body to maintain a pH balance.

elle_macpherson_redonline__square

‘The Body’ Elle Macpherson talked about adding alkaline based food and drinks to her diet in a recent magazine article:
“An acidic body is out of balance. Today’s diet of processed food, sugar, alcohol, too much red meat, dairy and coffee – especially for me – along with stress and lack of sleep can affect the way the body functions. My diet was okay but I was busy, eating on the run and sleeping four hours a night. I was feeling tired and toxic and my solution was to take a plethora of synthetic vitamins. After I made lifestyle changes and started to become more alkaline, I noticed benefits right across the board. I felt lighter, lost stubborn weight around my middle and had better digestion and no IBS. It also started to show on the outside – they call it the ‘alkaline glow’. My skin felt moisturised when I’ve always had dry skin. My hairdresser commented that my hair was strong and was growing quickly.”

Drink up everyone!!!!
