I’m a skincare magpie, it’s all bright, shiny and I cannot wait to get my hands onto something new! And that’s what BiomeRenew is, a brand new offering, proudly made in South Africa. The first thing you’ll want to know about BiomeRenew is what sets it apart from other...
I don’t know about you, but I love discovering new beauty brands. Standard Beauty has been creating buzz in South Africa, with many raving about their affordable, high-quality skincare - but I had yet to purchase any myself, even though their products sound fantastic...
When it comes to my skincare I am very much all over the place, par for the course when you write about beauty I guess. In saying that though, along the way I come across some absolute gems and today I want to share the affordable skincare products that I just love,...
We live in an environment full of pollutants, and over and above that, everything is rushed, manic and there are very few instances where we aren't completely stress free. Something that we don't often think about is how our environment and stress levels negatively...
Skin Creamery is one of those brands that I keep see popping up, and everyone seems to absolutely rave about them. A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to meet Hannah from Skin Creamery, and let me tell you, she is absolutely divine. We chatted about the products,...
Ah January, back to healthy eating and sweating it out in the gym, amirite? I'm planning a "what I wear to work out" post for sometime soon-ish but for today, I wanted to chat about three products for your gym routine; two from Mama Mio and one from Mio (okay, they're...
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...
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...
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...
A budget skincare brand that works is always a great find and I’m always on the lookout for a new “must-have” product that won’t cost me an arm and a leg. When these Celltone skincare products arrived a little while ago, I was so excited! Was my new favourite product...
Now that the days are well and truly getting more chilly, it's a good time to take a look at your skincare regime and make a few minor adjustments to ensure that your skin stays in tip top shape throughout winter. Swap gel cleansers for more creamy ones. Or take it...
You all know I'm a big Dermalogica junkie, and so when Dermalogica announced the launch of the Daily Superfoliant, I was really excited. Not only to see what this new powder resurfacer was all about, but also to see how it differed from the Daily Microfoliant....
I ran a little poll on Twitter a few days ago and it seems the you are all very keen to see the skincare products I currently swear by. I thought about telling you about them all in one post, but then we would be here for a very long time and so I decided to split...
It’s not here quite yet, but the big chill is on its way and I for one, couldn't be happier - I’m a winter baby through and through. I love the cold and (almost) everything that goes with it: boots and scarves, tea and rusks in the morning and of course snuggling...
A little while ago, Rubybox contacted me and asked if I would be interested in receiving some Nimue skincare products to try out. They would all be tester sizes and would be suited to my skin type. I’m always keen to try new products and so I jumped at the chance! To...
