Ramblings of a rampant beauty editor…
Human + Kind is a nice line of ‘chemical-free’ and cruelty-free skin and haircare products made using all-natural ingredients. There are no colourants, parabens or perfumes in the mix, making their goodies a good pick for sensitive skin. Then there’s the super pretty packaging. I love that the greener, ‘organic’ trend has opened the door […]
Read MoreHi guys I finally made another video, this time covering various fragrances that have come my way, as it felt like an easy way to blast through a whole bunch of info real fast, but the whole process is a total pain so I don’t know if I’ll be making another any time soon. I’m […]
Read MoreCome Wine With Us, if you haven’t heard about it, is kind of like a monthly supper club that brings together restaurants and wine estates. It’s a great way to try a multi-course vino-paired meal (usually at an awesome price) as well as meet new people. Last week myself and Karisa attended CWWU’s second annual […]
Read MoreDue to various random reasons, I’ve missed the Bastille Festival for two years running, which is suuuch a pity as it’s one of the best things to do in Franschhoek next to its epic champagne festival. This year, however, there’s nothing holding me back and I’ll be hitting up the venue with a bunch of super […]
Read MoreIf you’re a beauty blog regular you’ll know the big news for July – in the middle of the month, Benefit Cosmetics will be returning to SA, but this time you’ll find them in Edgars as opposed to Woolies. (Scroll down to see a store list.) .. To celebrate the launch, Benefit threw a fabulously […]
Read MoreA little while ago I was given the option of picking a few goodies from Soil’s online store. The proudly South African store serves up a selection of organic goodies that range from aromatherapy oils to bath and body products as well as a tea tree-infused line that includes a shampoo and conditioner. They also […]
Read MoreMost of you will know that H&M is on it’s way to South Africa, opening in October at the V&A Waterfront in the area near the Nu Metro. Apparently the store’s going to be a serious monster – 4 700 square metres and on two levels! .. .. Last week I was invited to get […]
Read MoreGood news for all you retro-lovin’, ‘see you at the soda shop’ would-be pin-up girls – ghd’s latest limited edition styler is right up your street! The new Vintage Pink V styler (R2 399) boasts an elegant-looking matte powder pink finish with metallic pale pink finishes accented by black ceramic coated plates. I can tell […]
Read MoreI love a good cream eye shadow and am still mourning the loss of Benefit’s Creaseless Cream shadow/liner in Busy Signal, the perfect shade of bronze. Max Factor, however, have launched fantastic formula called Excess Shimmer (R129,95, exclusive to Clicks). Each shade promises to stay put for hours and really does as promised. In fact, […]
Read MoreWhen local hot styling tools brand Veaudry offered to send me their iStyler (R1 190, retailbox.co.za), I didn’t quite click until it arrived that it was a mini travel styler. Being an ungrateful cow who receives far too many things my first thought was ‘Oh. What could you ever achieve with this boy? Thank God, […]
Read MoreIf you’re a regular reader you’ll know I’m a massive fan of retinol. Much the same way your body needs several vitamins to function, your skin needs multiple ingredients to live it’s best life BUT, if I haaaad to pick just one to really invest in, it would always be retinol. A potent form of […]
Read MoreOkay, so we all know I’m having a love affair with Pigalle right now. Their seafood platter special (R495 for two) is the shizzle’s nizzle and every time someone tells me they gave it a bash and was totally blown away I totally get off on being all ‘I know, right?! I totally told you […]
