My QMS skincare routine {video}

I decided to do my skincare routine in a  video as I think it is a way easier way for you to understand exactly what the products are like and, obviously, easier for me to explain. I hope this answers all those QMS questions that you have, and also hope it gets you excited to […]

La Petite Robe Noire {Guerlain}

A few weeks back the Guerlain team invited us to a ‘LBD’ launch of their new fragrance which is (appropriately) called La Petite Robe Noire and launching in South Africa in September. The evening was just beautiful down to every fine detail, and the rose scented and candy floss flavoured cocktails were a real hit. […]

Essie {Cascade Cool}

I have {obviously} already been testing my new Essie Summer colours and wore my Cascade Cool last week and over the weekend and got so many compliments on the colour. This is the colour on, also a great colour to build up and get that gel-like look. As always start off with your acetone-wiped nails, followed by […]

More news from Moroccanoil

I got sent these two new products by Moroccanoil a few weeks ago and have been trialing them over the last few weeks, these are my thoughts on both products: Moroccanoil Luminous Hair Spray I chose this product as, firstly, I really like the name and, secondly, I have been on the lookout for a […]

My brand new necklace {Apres Ski}

Radiant Glo {Yardley}

On attempting a beauty-cupboard spring-clean this weekend I ended up getting distracted with brand new products that I haven’t even got around to testing. One that really caught my eye (and has now become a new favourite) is this illuminating cream from Yardley, Radiant Glo. I think it was the name that originally got me […]

Gavin Rajah + Clinique

Last week I went to the launch of the latest Clinique collaboration done with none other than the incredible Gavin Rajah. This is nothing new for the fashion-savvy beauty brand who have collaborated with other designers such as Stone Cherrie’s Khensani in 2010 and David Tlale in 2011. Rajah designed this cute evening clutch that can double up as […]

Beauty packaging love

I am such a fan of pretty packaging, so much so that I can literally be tempted into buying something completely useless for the way that it is packaged – and then I never end up using it and admire it until it is way past it’s sell by date! I thought I would share my favourite […]

Essie {summer 12}

This parcel arrived on my desk this morning and was covered in sea sand, first time in a while that I have felt beachy and summery 🙂 Loved that little touch! The colours from Essie’s summer collection, Bikini so Teeny, are gorgeous this year – although not exactly what I would think of when I think ‘summer’, […]
