Why does hair suddenly feel drier and frizzier as seasons change?

Lower humidity in early autumn pulls moisture from hair shafts, while leftover summer sun damage weakens protective cuticles. The result is rougher texture and static.

Hydrating shampoos like ‘repair&hydrate’ shampoo, masks and leave-in conditioners help restore moisture balance.

Sudden shifts between hot days and cool evenings make the body work harder to regulate temperature.

Blood vessels expand in heat to release warmth, then contract again in cooler air. That adjustment affects hydration levels, blood pressure, and energy - which is why late-summer weather swings can feel surprisingly draining.

Steady hydration and lighter evening activity help the body adapt more comfortably.

Long walks, gym sessions, or beach days increase fluid and electrolyte loss through sweat.

Water replaces fluid, but electrolytes replace the salts muscles and nerves need to function properly. Without them, recovery can feel slower and fatigue heavier.

Activity hydration isn’t just about drinking, it’s about refueling what was used.

Sunscreen works best when applied before sun exposure, not after you’re already outside. This allows the protective film to form evenly on the skin.

Applying too late can leave gaps in coverage during peak UV time.

Applying early and reapplying later keeps protection consistent.

Zenita’s pick: Baby Wash & Shampoo 💚

This one has been a long-term staple in Zenita’s household, she’s used it “forever” with her own kids and continues to recommend it to families looking for a gentler, more natural-feeling option.

The GAIA wash range is often chosen for sensitive skin, especially when parents want something mild that doesn’t overcomplicate bath time.

Zenita loves the entire range, but this product in particular has earned its place through consistency - it’s one she’s trusted again and again for her family.

When something works quietly and reliably for years, it’s easy to recommend.

Not all indigestion aids are meant to be used the same way 🍽️

- Chewable antacids start working as you chew, helping neutralise acid quickly.

- Liquid options coat the throat and stomach, which can feel more soothing when symptoms are sharp or burning.

- Other formats are designed to work longer term rather than immediately.

Matching the format to your symptoms can make a big difference, it’s not just about grabbing what’s familiar.

If reflux, bloating or discomfort all feel a bit different, the support can be different too.

Health advice doesn’t always need to come with a problem attached.

Pharmacies aren’t just for when something is wrong, they’re also a place to check symptoms, ask “is this normal?”, or get guidance before something becomes urgent.

A quick conversation can often save time, worry, or unnecessary trial and error later on.

Sometimes reassurance is just as valuable as treatment.

True or false: feeling something work means it’s working better.

❌ False

Tingles, warmth, or immediate sensations can feel reassuring, but they’re not always connected to effectiveness. Some products are designed to work quietly in the background, without noticeable feedback and that doesn’t make them any less effective.

Sometimes the absence of sensation is exactly the point 🔕

Meet Zenita 👋

Zenita has been part of the TerryWhite Chemmart West Beach team for 8 years and is a familiar, friendly face to many locals. She believes getting along with teammates is key to making work enjoyable and stress-free…and it’s clear how much her team loves her. 🫣

Helping customers is what she enjoys most, especially supporting elderly locals who visit regularly and have been part of the community for even longer than she’s worked here. She’s also the organiser of the store, taking care of planograms (which she genuinely enjoys), but customer service will always be her favourite part of the day.

A calm presence, a caring approach, and a big part of what makes West Beach feel like a community pharmacy.

Iron’s role in energy is more mechanical than people expect 🚶‍♀️

It’s a key part of haemoglobin, the molecule that carries oxygen through the bloodstream to working muscles and organs. When iron levels are low, that delivery system becomes less efficient, so even with enough sleep and a reasonable diet the body may still feel underpowered.

That’s why low iron can show up as fatigue, reduced stamina, or feeling short of breath with everyday activity.

It’s not about stimulation or “boosting” energy it’s about whether oxygen is getting to where it needs to go.
