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.

In saying that at R250 for 125ml the Lamelle Dermaheal Foaming cleanser isn’t exactly cheap but it does clean thoroughly…

L’Oreal Paris Colour Riche La Palette Lips and Smokey Eyes Reviews

When these two palettes arrived I couldn’t wait to try them out. I absolutely love the Colour Riche La Palette Lips in Nude the most. Not only is the packaging gorgeous but the shades are absolutely on point. They are stunning! It’s also such a perfect sized palette for travel or just to keep in ones handbag. I always carry…
