The sun is set to shine this Australia Day, and what better day to celebrate than by gathering your friends and family for a day spent beside (or inside!) the pool.
Want to throw the ultimate pool party this Australia Day? Make sure you’ve checked off everything on our list of Australia Day party essentials and your party will be one to remember.
Australia Day Cocktail
If you’ve been on Instagram at all over the last few months, you’ll know that an Aperol Spritz has swiftly become the drink of the summer. Nothing beats a bit of citrus in summer, and although these aperitifs look fancy, they’re SO easy to make:
All you need:
- 3 parts Prosecco
- 2 parts Aperol
- 1 part soda
Pour over ice, swirl and garnish with some fresh orange.
We couldn’t think of a better pool party beverage!
SPF
It can be easy to forget about sun protection when you’re having such a fun day, so make sure you’ve got a few big bottles of sunscreen around the pool and BBQ area so as soon as you spot one, you’ll remember to top up your SPF protection. Don’t forget- sunscreen needs to be reapplied especially if you're a tad sweaty or swimming!
A Novelty Lilo
We love a good pool-ready inflatable (they make for the perfect Insta photos!) and we can’t go past SunnyLife’s range for Australia Day. Founded on the coast of Sydney, SunnyLife is a quintessential Australian brand dedicated to making your time in the pool or on the beach as fun and safe as possible- it doesn’t get more Aussie than that!
Melanoboost
You know you need to keep topping up that sun protection, but you still want to get a deep, even, natural tan - enter Melanoboost. Our Peptide Sun Tanning Oil will allow you to achieve a deep tan in next to no time. That means less time sun baking (and less harmful UV exposure) and more time having fun!
Another shrimp on the barbie!
Maybe not a shrimp, but make sure you have the BBQ fired up this Australia day to soak up those Aperol spritzes. What’s on our menu? Snags, ribs, and a few veggie burgers for good measure!
Party Tunes
Australia Day celebrations are complete without the iconic Triple J’s Hottest 100. Sit back, turn the radio up and let the countdown take you on a musical journey of the past 12 months. If you haven’t already, head over to their website to vote and have your say on the best song of 2016! Ps. Go FLUME!

Melanoboost Peptide Sun Tanning Lotion + Oils - Differences explained
The first thing you will notice when looking at the Melanoboost product range is the four vibrant coloured bottles of YELLOW, CORAL, BLUE and GREEN.
Before we talk about the differences between Melanoboost’s four products, it’s important to understand what is the same. BIOMIMETIC PEPTIDES are the fundamental element that powers the entire Melanoboost product range beyond the capabilities of any other sun tan lotion, oil or cream.
NOW let’s take a look at the differences between the four Melanoboost products...
BOOM! Tanning bombshell just dropped
Australia’s one and only peptide powered tanning brand loves to drop a tanning bombshell just in time for summer! And this year is no exception…
To kick of this summer 2019, we are so excited to launch our latest Tri-Phase Tanning triumph - Melanoboost Peptide Sun Tanning Lotion + Bronzing.
We've already introduced you to Melanoboost Peptide Sun Tanning Oil + Bronzing (coral bottle) and Melanoboost Peptide Sun Tanning Lotion (blue bottle) and we know they are firm favourites, so we decided to combine these two best sellers to create a NEW TANNING GAME CHANGER.
Melanoboost Peptide Sun Tanning Oil - The Sun Tan Game Changer
Since Melanoboost Peptide Sun Tanning Oil was introduced to tan lovers across Australia and around the globe, the technology has completely changed the way people tan.
Peptides are often used in high end skin care lines to help reinforce naturally occurring proteins in our skin to repair, rejuvenate and maintain it. We have applied those same principles to our Peptide Sun Tanning Oils to help reinforce the natural tanning process by boosting melanin levels.
