Ramblings of a rampant beauty editor…
Italian 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 […]
Read MoreNew Maybelline SuperStay 14 HR lipstick (R129,95) has hit the shelves. It arrived in a cutesy clock-shaped box that gave a bit of insight into the Maybelline’s girls day. As it turns out she only sleeps between 11 and 12 which, as a friend of mine pointed out, means she might well be going through […]
Read MoreFollowing the runaway success of Jimmy Choo’s first perfume, Jimmy Choo, the sexy designer footwear brand have released a brand new scent; Jimmy Choo FLASH. “FLASH is about the cool rush of excitement and the sense of power a woman feels when dressed in a pair of sexy shoes. Its character, which is both heady […]
Read MoreNivea have launched yet another shower gel; Supreme Touch Cream Shower, R27,99. Supreme Touch is more hydrating than most of Nivea’s other shower gels thanks to the inclusion of Shea and macadamia nut oil. It doesn’t create a mass of bubbles but produces a dreamy, creamy lather that delicately cleanses your skin without drying it out. I […]
