John Frieda: Be Gone Fly-Aways!

I was pleasantly surprised with a John Frieda hamper the other day. The line I was sent was given to me after I discussed my particular hair concerns with Janlyn (who represents John Frieda’s PR). I think my hair type and concerns are pretty standard: I have long, fine hair that I’ve recently started colouring. My only […]

Review: Estée Lauder Bronze Goddess Soft Duo Powder

I have always loved a good bronzer, but went off them a bit when I felt MAC’s versions were a little too muddy looking on the skin, so switched to actual blushers – something I still adore using, my favourite being Smashbox, Stila and NARS. I was looking for a bronzer that I could use […]

Men + their skincare routine

This is post is for the few men who read this blog of mine (there are a few believe it or not) and then for all you ladies who are unsure as to what your men should be using on their skins. And if the men in your life are still using that bar of […]

Review: REN Glycolactic Radiance Renewal Mask

This is a product I have owned for a number of years now, so when cleaning out my bathroom cabinet I decided to do a write up on it. I often end up forgetting about my old favourites and writing about new-launches that I love, but this one deserves a mention and I will be […]

Thierry Mugler: Angel Aqua Chic & Alien Aqua Chic

I am so excited about my two Thierry Mugler reviews as (believe it or not) I have never actually tried any of his fragrances and know how many people rave about them. The two that I got to try are fresh, summery versions of the brands original two iconic feminine fragrances – Angel and Alien. […]

De Hoop Nature Reserve: The Ultimate Getaway

Two weeks ago myself and a group of friends headed to De Hoop Nature Reserve for the weekend. I have been looking so forward to the visit as heard so many amazing these and it certainly did live up to its expectations. We were so spoilt – the weather was amazing, our accommodation was perfect […]

Ponds BB Cream: Review

I have had loads of questions from my readers about BB creams and my feelings about them, so every time a brand launches their own version I get pretty excited to try it out – making sure I am able to give you guys the feedback you are all asking for. I recently got sent […]

Jo Malone: Earl Grey & Cucumber

I got given this fragrance three weeks ago as a gift from my sister at her wedding – she gave each of us bridesmaids plus the Mothers involved a bottle. I thought it was such a special idea as she had spent hours in the Jo Malone store choosing a fragrance she felt best suited […]

Armani Eau Pour Homme: Review

Armani Eau Pour Homme has recently been re-bottled and given a fresh new look. This old-school fragrance, which has been around since 1984, is really classic and ‘manly’ (for lack of a better word). I would definitely say that it’s more of a mature scent – very suitable for someone in their mid-thirties and up. The scent […]
