I haven't done a skincare post for so long, but I feel like this post on my favourite Skinceuticals products is the perfect way to redeem myself. I've been using quite a few of their products for a few weeks now and have managed to whittle down my favourites to share...
We so often talk about and recommend products for those with sensitive facial skin, but what about bodycare for sensitive skin? Before we get into products, lets chat about what exactly constitutes and causes a sensitive skin? Simply put, the skin has a barrier layer...
Just before we went on our quick trip to Cape Town a few months ago, I put up an image on Instagram about the fab spray tan that I had done at Glow Couture. This is a big statement but, I am confident that it is the best spray tan in Johannesburg. I had so many...
The first time I start to feel festive at the end of the year, is when LUSH brings out their Christmas products. Snow Fairy and Rose Jam shower gels are long time favourites but I wanted to show you what else is new from LUSH plus give you my thoughts on three...
I remember when I was in my early twenties, I suffered from quite bad breakouts on a regular basis but I still had pretty dehydrated skin. It's a bit of a conundrum because you want to treat the breakout but you also don't want to strip your skin or dehydrate it even...
There have been a bunch of new skincare products that I have been trying out recently that would all be fab additions to your summer skincare arsenal. This is going to be a fairly lengthy post (by my standards anyway) so no chit chat, let's get straight into it! I...
Fragrance is not something that I chat about a lot over here, and I'm not really sure why because I love my perfumes and own way too many. Each of them have really special memories attached to them; my wedding day, a wonderful holiday, the birth of my child, and so...
Summer is here which means we will be showing off a lot more leg than we were a few weeks ago. If your skin is looking a little worse for wear (super dry and scale like), then this post is for you. I've rounded up my favourite body lotions (and one body oil), each...
As you can see below, I have very blonde brows, and all I want is a set of beautifully thick, bold brows. Unfortunately, those are not the cards that I was dealt and so I have to fill in my brows on a daily basis. I've tried out a good deal of products and have...
Oh my word, the past week was not a fun time in the Booyens house. Everyone including the dogs got sick which resulted in very little sleep for Dan and I. Most days, I will go sans make up but regardless of my level of exhaustion, life goes on and errands need to be...
After months of seeing teasers online, it's here, the Urban Decay Naked Heat palette has landed on South African soil - hooray! It seems that whenever I receive a new palette from Urban Decay (like After Dark), I inevitably show you a few different looks that you can...
When the new Urban Decay Meltdown and Rehab products landed in South Africa, I was thrilled! I had seen so many different reviews on them and couldn't wait to test the products out myself. Luckily for me, I didn't have to wait too long as Urban Decay very kindly sent...
If you're anything like me, you always want to know whats new from Dermalogica! I stalk their international social media accounts to see what should be hitting our shores soon and the past few months have not disappointed! There have been two new releases recently,...
Now that we are really in the thick of things, winter-wise, I'm sure that your skin is feeling the effects. I know mine certainly was until I received these three products in the mail. Wondering which winter products you need in your life? Keep on reading, and HOORAY,...
Ok, this blog post is super late as these collections have been out for a little while now but I thought that I would still introduce you to the Essie Fall, Winter and Luxe Effects collections, just in case you haven't spotted them in store just yet. First up is the...
Oh hello Monday! Hopefully your day has started off well, and if not, I'm here to give you some good news: there are some new matte lipsticks available from the drugstore and they are amazing (bar one of two), woohoo! I'm not going to waste time on chit chat, let's...
