Ramblings of a rampant beauty editor…
You know you’re life’s possibly taken a bit of a low road when you find your panties in the post box. Chances are you aren’t acting like the fine young lady your mama and daddy raised you up to be. It’s that or you’ve been totally spoiled by Lingerie Letters which is totes the case […]
Read MoreI’ve mentioned this before, but Mavala’s quite the stellar nail care brand and doesn’t always get the attention it deserves. They’re not the glossy li’l fashion princess of the nail world (here’s looking at you Essie and OPI) but the quality of their products is tip freakin’ top. This may or may not have anything to do with the fact zat zee brand is German. (Can you […]
Read MoreIf you haven’t been to La Mouette in Sea Point you need to make a plan. The food is divine. It looks like art. The service is stellar. This is the place you take a date you want to impress. This is where you bring your bestie for a day or night of indulgence. It’s the spot […]
Read MoreItalian spa brand Comfort Zone have created a new line called Skin Regimen. It was developed with the help of a team of doctors and scientists and are calling it a ‘nutriceutical’ range as it includes a supplement that you’re to take orally. When creating the line, Comfort Zone considered the factors that contribute to […]
Read MoreSo last night I attended one of the more entertaining black tie events held in Cape Town, the 5 for Change charity ball. It was held at the city hall and the theme was The Great Gatsby which made for seriously glam-looking turnout. Think sequins, tassels, red lips, diamante headbands, vintage stoles and hot boys in tuxes. Due […]
Read MoreOkay, so I hate covering several products in one post; it’s not great for my SEO but hey. I’ve taken on so much mag work this week I actually feel a bit panicky and hysterical. Still, despite the fact that my face is tingling with stress, I’m still going to manage to get my pretty […]
Read MoreI have a bit of a love-hate affair with Filorga. Some of their stuff is fab but they tend to have a penchant for weird and wonderful ingredients; next gen shizz that’s supposed to be totes amaze but doesn’t always have a million scientfic studies from various independents to prove it and that type of […]
Read MoreLast week the sweet peeps at sloggi (yes, that’s right; no capital, okay?) spoiled me with a double set of one of their comfiest underwear lines; a sloggi Light bra and hipster 2-pack. Value-wise, it’s kind of ridiculous; 2 bras for R229,95 and 2 hipster briefs for R119,95. The bra’s cups sit nice and close […]
Read MoreIt’s that time of year again; Societi Bistro’s holding a culinary tour through Italy. As of the 15th, each week for ten weeks, the restaurant will serve up a new menu consisting of Italian specialities paired with a carefully chosen wine inspired by various parts of country. To give you an idea, here’s a look […]
Read MoreIf you spotted a sloggi comp on the blog and now can’t find it, don’t panic. The post went up prematurely and will be back up on Wednesday. Sorry about that! Please don’t send your entry email through again, I’ve got it safe and sound so you can consider yourself in it to win it. […]
Read MoreHow much do we freakin’ love Batiste dry shampoo? I use it almost every day regardless of whether my hair feels greasy or not as I’m addicted to the lift it gives my roots. Addicted! Along with Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk foundation and Famous Dave’s self tanning mousse it’s a pre-launch party staple. You’ll find the […]
Read MoreFrench fashion house Lanvin have just launched a new perfume, simply titled Lanvin Me. Being a jaded, evil cow, my first thought was that this is the scent for the newly single girl after getting divorced from the dude she used to run around with while wearing the brand’s previous scent, Marry Me. However, Lanvin reckon it’s […]
