Urban Decay Complex Primer Optical Illusion Review

Urban Decay has arrived in Cape Town and last month I attended the V&A Waterfront store opening. One of the items that we received in our goodie bags was the Complex Primer Optical Illusion (R450). I do use primers and feel that they help tremendously with the longevity of your makeup. However, I mostly wear one on special occasions, like…

REN Flash Hydro Boost Review

I have serious love for the REN skincare range. Their bodycare ranges are pretty awesome too but for skincare I find that I have a number of Holy Grail products from this brand.

Clarins Everlasting Foundation + Review

I’ve never tried a Clarins foundation before but know of so many people who say that their Everlasting foundation is their Holy Grail product. So I had high hopes when the Clarins EverLasting Foundation + with SPF15 (R445) arrived on my desk. I found that it perfectly matched my skin and the shade was 105. I love that it is…

Lamelle Dermaheal Foaming Cleanser Review

Cleansers to me tend to be a habitual purchase and I find myself buying the same one over and over again. I’ve recently forced myself to try new ones because while I do love my regular one, it’s way over-priced. In saying that at R250 for 125ml the Lamelle Dermaheal Foaming cleanser isn’t exactly cheap but it does clean thoroughly…
