Ramblings of a rampant beauty editor…
Did everyone else enjoy the first issue of Good Housekeeping SA as much as I did? If so, you’ll be glad to know the new issue, in my opinion, is even better.

Read MoreLove wallet-friendly, top quality INGLOT cosmetics like I do? I was thrilled to hear they’re now available at Woolies’ Cavendish and East Gate stores, so I can slap their shizz on my Woolies card along with their yummy kiddies’ meals. (I’m currently obsessed with Soccer Balls & Shoelaces, a fab low-cal version of spaghetthi bolognaise…) See the eye shadow pan above? […]
Read MoreHi guys! Last night I got back from a whirlwind trip to France to visit my little sis. (She’s currently living in Lille with her new-ish boyf, a Frenchie).

I’ve got the odd scheduled post that’ll pop up here and there and, if I’m not too busy/permanenty vrot on French champers, I’ll slap up the odd ‘woo hoo, look at me, I’m in Paris while you’re stuck at your desk’-type of post. Have you girls spotted Catrice […]

(Mine […]
