Things I love…

Elizabeth Arden Visible Difference Serum This serum is on the top of my product-of-the-moment list. It is from the new Elizabeth Arden Visible Difference range and just seems to work really well on my skin. I have been using it each evening and really enjoy the texture, fresh/light feel and obviously the result. Glowing, radiant skin – […]

ghd air. A life saver

You don’t know what a hairdryer is until you’ve tried this. Seriously girls. I am the most low-maintenance hair person ever. I would never wake up early to style my hair, but that’s cos my hair is naturally straight with a slight wave to it – super easy. I got a fabulous ghd air towards […]

Donna Karen Woman

I think I’ve found my new favourite fragrance (alongside Tom Ford Black Orchid). This stuff is unreal – possibly the sexiest fragrance yet. The fragrance is built around the core of sandalwood and vetiver from Haiti, including notes of orange blossom amongst others so is essentially a male fragrance that is finished off with more […]

Diligo Flash Sale Time {Petites Pierres Atelier}

Diligo’s online store is by far one of my top go-to stores when I’m having a fashion crisis. I have experienced their service first hand and it is as world-class as you can get. I am so often left frustrated by ridiculous online stores in SA – they have exorbitant courier costs and take weeks to deliver […]

Lush Godiva review

I bought this for myself in the UK – I kind of got over supporting Lush SA as it’s cheaper in the UK – I’ll buy from here when I have to, but until then I’m all for saving a penny or two on unnecessary beauty products. I had heard loads about the Lush Godiva […]

Pretty Powerful by Bobbi Brown

Bobbi Brown books have a special place in my heart. I had a few growing up that I had been giving (after many hints) and they were firm favourites. My best was the Bobbi Brown Teen Beauty – it was my go-to guide for everything! Then there was the Bobbi Brown make up manual that […]

Oasis Spa {Review}

I was treated to a morning at Oasis Spa two weeks ago and it really was something special. With my little 2013 mission I have been very picky about what I choose to review and how I choose to spend my ‘blog time’. I love what I do for the blog but it certainly is […]

Smashbox Love Me range & Primers

I’ve always been a fan of Smashbox cosmetics but actually not tried as many of them as I would have liked to. Last week I got sent the beautiful ‘Love Me’ limited edition range. Amazing. The colours are literally exactly what I look for in my makeup collection – nude, soft, pretty colours. My two […]

My Overseas Beauty Treats

I got asked by lovely Nadia from Durban to contribute a beauty post to her blog – an old favourite. She is off on a trip to the UK so asked me to do a few must-have beauty indulgences that I put on my shopping list when I head over. This is what I had to say… […]
