I’m crazy about The Body Shop’s Baked-To-Last blush in Petal is one of my make-up bag staples. Still, their other ‘regular’ blushes have needed a bit of a shake up for a while now; the colours were too similar and too few. Thus, I’m glad they’ve just brought out a new selection called All-In-One Cheek Colour […]

As it turns out, NIVEA’s new Invisible for Black & White deodorant has been on the shelves for just a few weeks but already the suppliers can’t meet the demand. In fact, it’s the brands most successful launch to date both locally and overseas. If you’ve yet to hear about it, Invisible for Black & […]

Looky, looky! The sweet peeps at Mama Mio were kind enough to send me a little spoilage: Included in my ‘spring clean for your skin’ gift pack was a mini Mama Mio O Mega Shower Cream, O Mega Body Buff exfoliating gel, Lucky Legs tired leg-riviving gel and a razor to help create silky looking pins for dress season. I’d used […]

After much anticipation and hype, Lady Gaga’s first fragrance, Fame, is about to the shelves in SA: Before it’s release, Ms Gaga had told the press that she wanted her fragrance to smell like ‘semen and blood’. (Charming!) Because of this, not to mention her penchant for zexy meat dresses and the like, I totally expected her scent to be an over-the- top, statement-maker; a real […]

First up, how gorgeous is Rosie Hunting-Whitley? I’ve endured quite a bit on that God-awful Shia le Beouf train wreck, Transformers 3, just because I had a massive ‘girl crush’ on her Victoria’s Secret-style hair and make-up. Anyway, she’s the face of Burberry’s latest fragrance, Burberry Body EDT, which would make sense ‘cos she’s also attached to their […]

I hate packing. It’s kak. Still, I do think I’m rather good at it and, thanks to my OCD-riddled Virgo rising, I can create capsule wardrobes with ease and streamline my beauty goodies to the bare frikken essentials with a moments notice. (I actually had to do that the other day when, while on holiday in France, my li’l sis announced that […]

If you follow international beauty trends you’ll know all about BB cream; it’s like the Birkin bag of beauty products in that every girl seems to wants one. Still, despite being inundated with hype, many of you don’t know what a BB cream really is, so let me break it down for you; a BB cream or ‘blemish […]

Got zero leave due? Have a wallet full of till slips and 10 cent coins? Haunted by a pesky criminal record that’ll dash your hopes of a visa? (Hey, I’m not judging… if he cheated on you with your hot best friend that bastard got what he deserved…) Whatever it is that might be preventing […]

So I’m back from a spoilicious trip to France. While I spent two days in Paris and another in Lille, the majority of my holiday in St. Tropez. When I have time I’ll be sure to write a bit about it but right now I’m drowning in a world of backlog and admin. As of Monday, however, you can […]
