Ramblings of a rampant beauty editor…
Bwhahaha! Just had the best laugh ever… Flipped open the new Fairlady (Dec 2010) and was met by the cheesiest custard ad ever – featuring my hottie-schmodel-friend Stephen Friedman. (He was one of Cosmo’s Sexiest Men last year and now busy working on his new show, Blue Print Travel, due out next year…) How bad […]
Read MoreAgain, this was something I spotted while at the Only One event… Dana used to work for Operation S’mile, but now she’s aiming to be a writer. She’s a lucky girl in that she’s pulled a bit of a Jessica Simpson – befriending an awesome hair stylist who can glam you up at the drop of a […]
Read MoreJust got back from schimlingling at the launch of Only One at The House of Fashion in Loop Street. It’s a very cool concept in that it’s an invitation only fashion club. This means you have to get invited or fill out an application form to join. But once you’re in, you get to book shopping appointments with a personal stylist […]
Read MoreSpotted – Mischa Barton getting hair extensions at an LA salon. (Don’t you think she looks like Katie Holmes in this pic?) And here’s the result… I think her new look is absolutely gorgeous! xx
Read MoreHow dull is the title of this new entry? That’s because it’s worded for SEO – search engine optimisation. (Leigh smiles and winks…) See how clever I’m getting at this blogging thing? I’ve just nicked the new Elle (Nov 2010) off my boss’ desk and see it includes not one, but THREE samples of Estee […]
Read MoreGet a load of Taylor Momsen’s ‘Death don’t Become her’ look. This is how she rocked up MTV’s EMA’s over the weekend. Hectic. I just want to hold the girl down and attack her face with one of my fave J&J lavender scented baby wipes. Hasn’t she ever heard the whole ‘only enhance your eyes or […]
Read MoreMy dear mate Shello is, like, vomitously cool. She works for Storm, the fancy pants modeling agency in London, and gets to hang out with big name schmodels like Kate Moss and Alek Wek. I always irritate the living shizz out of her by sending her mails along the lines of ‘OMG, did Kate come […]
Read MoreJust got an SMS from Yemaya Spa & Hair in Green Point. They’re running a special called ‘PRE SEASON MADNESS’. You can get an hour long massage for a mere R295,00 and a free mini mani with every facial. Tempting, ne? They’ve also offering Brazlian Blowouts for R1 400,00. (Sounds steep, but that’s a good […]
Read MoreMy make-up artist bestie, Tam, splashed out this week and mailed me a piccie of her spoils, a new ‘yummy yummy’ brush set. These babies are from Division 3, a boutique-y type shop in Gardens Centre that sells cosmetics and clothing. They only set her back R850 as she gets a make-up artist discount. […]
Read MoreBeen offered an awesome deal on a ghd that seems almost too good to be true? Perhaps that’s because it’s cheap n’ nasty fake… To make sure you’re getting the real thing, click here. The good peeps at ghd (yes – it’s all lowercase… that’s just how they roll…) have put up a few handy guide […]
Read MoreJust read online that Leighton Meester has been picked as the face for Vera Wang’s new fragrance aimed at the younger set. (It’s due for release sometime late next year). According to Mevrou Wang, Leighton’s ‘beauty, talent and spirit will inspire all the young women that I hope will enjoy this passionate, new young fragrance’. This won’t […]
Read MoreA quickie for all you Cape Town girls – Just Skin Aesthetic Clinic in Green Point is extending their ‘Need Colour?’ special until the end of this month. This means you can go get a spray-tan AND a free mini-pedi for just R250,00. Score! Must say, I really like Just Skin. I attended it’s launch earlier this year and won […]
