    Winter Body Care Using LA’s Atelier Handmade Products {Review}

    I received a lovely charcoal clay handmade soap from my friend a while back. She used this specific soap in various ways but sent me a video where she demonstrated how well it cleaned her makeup brushes. The soap is large, smells amazing and contains natural ingredients. I’ve used it as a body soap as well as for my brushes. Lynn purchased this lovely soap from a local business called LA’s Atelier. The owner Lesley Ann contacted me shortly after that and wanted to send me a few products to test out and to share my honest experience on. About Lesley Ann and her business Lesley Ann Erasmus owns and…

    e.l.f Putty Primers: Original Poreless vs Matte {Review}

    Happy Monday and Happy new month beauties. This post is sort of a continuation from last weeks posts. I shared my experience with my first Tatcha skincare set over HERE. This set also included the “The Silk Canvas primer” which featured in this post over HERE and compared to the e.l.f poreless putty primer. Today I’m comparing the e.l.f poreless putty primer to the matte version.     e.l.f Poreless Putty Primer – $8 Description Poreless Putty Primer is the #1 Primer in America* This skin-perfecting poreless putty primer is infused with Squalane to help grip makeup for all-day wear and help protect skin from moisture loss.

    Tatcha The Silk Canvas vs. e.l.f. Poreless Putty Primer {Review}

    This post is long overdue. I’ve been using these two products for a few months. So these have been put through a thorough test. I don’t mind splurging on products that I know work well but I’m also really keen on good dupes. We all try and save where we can and if an affordable product works as well as a high-end version, then you bet your ass I’m on that. I’ve shared my thoughts on the Tatcha The Silk Canvas primer in this post over HERE. This is probably one of my favourite primers of all time so when I heard that the e.l.f poreless putty primer was a…

    My First Tatcha Skincare Set {Review}

    This lockdown has made me realize that with extra care and just a little more effort, one can obtain healthy skin. You don’t have to use high-end products to achieve excellent results. It boils down to knowing your skin type, using great active ingredients, knowing how and when you use them as well as being consistent. I’m planning on sharing my updated current skincare routine with you guys, so stay tuned for that post. Today I’m reviewing my very first Tatcha skincare set, so let’s get into this.   Tatcha skincare for makeup lovers set – $59   Description A set with three essentials made with pure, kind-to-skin Japanese ingredients…

    Huda Beauty Mercury Retrograde Eyeshadow Palette {Review & Swatches}

    Happy Thursday my beauties. I know it’s been a while but this lockdown has all of us feeling a certain way. I haven’t been posting reviews as I’m aware that many of you aren’t spending money on makeup, especially international branded products. That being said, I know some of you look to my blog for reviews, so I figured I’d carry on as I love the idea of you stopping by when you’re curious about a certain product. Today I have another eyeshadow palette review from one of my favourite brands. The Huda Beauty  Mercury Retrograde palette launched October last year (2019) just days before Mercury actually went into retrograde…
