    #CTConfidence Campaign

    July 20, 2015 in Beauty

    002CTConfidence - Abby

    The incredibly talented photographer Abigail K chose me to be a part of the #CTConfidence campaign alongside 9 other CT based beauty bloggers. #CTConfidence is all about inspiring other women to feel confident and comfortable whether they are all made-up or are completely makeup free.

    We each shot our “Before” looks where we were all made up and how we usually look in our day-to-day lives. Abigail then asked us to remove all of our makeup while being filmed and to shoot the “After” looks completely bare-faced. For most people having a camera zoomed in on your face is a scary thought let alone when you have no makeup on. All your flaws are front and centre or at least that is what it may feel like at first. I had so much fun during my shoot that I honestly forgot about the harsh daylight and the fact that I was in my comfy clothes with not a speck of makeup on. There was even some dancing involved, check out the video below to see. You can also read all about the campaign on her blog over here.

    It was overall such a positive campaign and everyone looked so gorgeous. I am really grateful to Abigail K for this opportunity!

      Aww, but you look great either way! Going completely makeup-free is still a big issue for me, we’re always our harshest critic :/

        So true! I must say I was really nervous at first and when I heard there wasn’t going to be any touching up or airbrushing you start to think “but what about my pores etc” it was extremely liberating though and since being a part of it I have gone without makeup on a regular basis but only on errand days etc.

    The past few weeks have been stressful - an escape The past few weeks have been stressful - an escape is needed! I love Autumn but I’m craving sunny beaches and tranquility and would love it if my next holiday is somewhere exclusive. 

While daydreaming and scrolling, I spotted the incredible @clubmed La Plantation d'Albion! It offers so much! Evening activities, scuba-diving (which I haven't done and want to), a beach bar, secluded coves, a luxurious Cinq Monde Spa and adult-only Zen Zones. Oh did I mention ALL-INCLUSIVE gourmet food, an open bar plus Champagne all day! It’s relaxation heaven! 

Being all-inclusive it’s also budget-friendly which will make it easier to convince Richard to book it for us! 

So, when you make a booking (Link in Bio) tag me in your snaps to make me extra jealous!

    How does the saying go again? In the entertainment How does the saying go again? In the entertainment industry, never work with children or animals?

Well, I've discovered this was especially true tonight. I was just trying to get some snaps of Rocco & Candi testing out some of the new Boss Mighty Chunks. They are available in 3 flavours- Chicken Casserole, Grilled Steak & Lamb Stew. I've honestly never seen them this excited over a specific food before, and they already go crazy for food. 

Candi was incredibly naughty. She's usually so well-behaved. She had the audacity to climb onto the table and stuck her face into the Grilled Steak can! Just as I was setting up my camera.

As a pescatarian, dog food in general typically doesn't have the most appetising smell to me. So I was surprised that all of the Boss Mighty Chunks has a pleasant & extremely unique aromatic rosemary scent. Something both Furbabies seem to love as you can clearly see from all of the fantastic blurry tongues out & mouth-watering impatient background photos of them. 

To find out more about the new #BossMightyChunks range from the @bossdogfood then click the link in bio…

    After all of the heavy rain last night. I’m trul After all of the heavy rain last night. I’m truly hoping for a few more sunny pool days! Mostly because Rocco wanted to spend the majority of last night outside in the rain 🤣🙈

He lives for water. So “splashy pool days” is heaven for him. Even if I’m making him pose… “Look at Daddy for the camera! “

He LOVES water though to the extreme. Even though he is a rescue, every animal behaviourist etc has confirmed he is most likely an Irish Setter.

He can’t swim, due to his build. Large upper thick coat and slender but furry legs. Ideal for trudging through bogs/wetlands in Ireland and the shallow parts of a pool 🤣. I have to be on full mummy duty though. As when he spots water he will go in and follow me. 

Anyone else have an Irish Setter? 

@oneroccoatatime is such a bundle of affection. Check out his Instagram for a Reel of him in his own Kiddies Pool 💦💦💦💦💦💦💦

What did you cook up tonight? 

I was Inspired by @masterchef_sa Ep 7 where the hero product was one of my absolute favourite ingredients to cook with- chillies! I did my best to recreate @tembisa_cooks Vegetarian Curry with aubergines, baby marrows, chickpeas and of course plenty of chilli! I not only used the dried chilli flakes she had in her recipe but also added something for an extra kick!

As you can see my love for spice has led me to grow my very own pots of Birds Eye Chilli. A chilli that is indigenous to Africa!

Don’t forget that the new season of MasterChef SA is back. Watch it on @mnettv DSTV Channel 101 at 18:00 Mondays to Thursdays.

    I hope that your weekend was as beautifully balanc I hope that your weekend was as beautifully balanced as mine was. It consisted of a little bit of relaxation, some social time and considering this gorgeous weather, it naturally involved a braai. 

Although, after snapping a little video for Richard, who couldn’t stay long due to tennis league. I realised we need to step up our game when it comes to cooking, even if it's just a braai. 

Are you feeling ready for the week ahead? 

And are you ready for the new season of MasterChef SA- airing on M-Net DStv Channel 101 at 18:00 on the 28th of February?
