Ramblings of a rampant beauty editor…
So I got a little lovin’ from Sally Hansen in the form of their new Smooth & Perfect hand cream (R94,95) and Complete Salon Manicure Dry & Go drops (R79,95). The hand cream, just so you know, is very nice. It moisturises well but absorbs fast and isn’t greasy or sticky feeling. It’s also got […]

The original Evelyn Rose was inspired by an actual rose of the same name that was bred especially for the brand. The new scent retains the sophistication of the original, but has been injected with a new […]
Read MoreWhen it comes to sexy night time scents I’m only partial to three on the shelf: Tom Ford Black Orchid Voile de Fleur (‘Let’s go get it on in the bathroom’); Thierry Mugler Alien Sunessence (‘I’m a classy, slightly eccentric girl with expense taste, get your hands off me , you cretin’) and Narciso Rodriguez […]
