    Colourpop Crème Lux Lipsticks Review + Swatches

Colourpop is hands down one of my favourite makeup brands and they’ve earned quite the reputation for their affordable makeup range. Their products aren’t only affordable but they’re consistently launching really stunning, creative and great quality products. Some of these, especially the most recent launches are so hard to pass up. Colourpop launched their first traditional bullet lipsticks sometime early last year and I, of course, jumped at it.

    The Juvia’s Place Issue: Afrique Palette {Review}

    If you thought the Festival palette I reviewed last week was an imaginative palette then think again. Those of you who are familiar with the Juvia’s Place brand would know that they don’t hold back when it comes to the colour selections for their eyeshadow palettes. This is one of the reasons I love them so much. The array of shades in each palette is so unique and this really excites me. I’ve so far reviewed the Nubian 2 and The Festival eyeshadow palettes during this blog series, so if you’re curious about these two then please click on them. Today I’m sharing my thoughts on the Afrique eyeshadow palette.  …

    The Juvia’s Place Issue: The Festival Palette {Review}

    This past weekend was a big one for many beauty lovers in Johannesburg. There was the Beauty Revolution at the Sandton convention centre as well as the Sir John masterclass in Hyde Park.

Today’s another Monday in the month of April, so another Juvia’s Place series blog post and today I bring a daring and bold eyeshadow palette review. I shared my thoughts on the gorgeous…
