Event : The Body Shop New Look Boutique Store

Hello lovelies , about two weeks ago I was invited by one of my favourite brands "The Body Shop" to view their New Look Store in Tygervalley mall. 


As this being one of my first events I was extremely nervous because I did not know what to expect at all, nevertheless upon arriving I spotted the store with its green balloons and surrounded with many other Body Shop lovers and the lovely Liezel Van Der Westhuizen as the host for the opening. 

When the ribbon was cut everyone immediately headed into the new store and my first thoughts was..  that it looked absolutely stunning ,chic and oh so fresh to the before look I love it!
Music was buzzing , people were socializing and the atmosphere was just lovely and the shopping experience was fantastic.





Also nice meeting Amina (Digital Brand Manager for TBS)  



Lovely meeting Leigh blogger behind Lipgloss is my life. 

Getting my shopping on..

Look Post : Monochrome With A Splash Of Colour

Hello , I trust you all had a lovely weekend.

As you all know we celebrated last week and Thursday ,I hope all my Muslim readers had a blessed day. Just so you know this post or outfit was not planned at all but it actually turned out to be one yay!, because when it comes to look posts its always just on the most spontaneous times.
Anyway.. here is my Eid Look:  The top is from Mr Price beautiful hey? the sleeves were long but I had to push the cuff up till about my elbow to make it 3/4 , would you have noticed? It also has a collar attached to the top but is covered by my scarf. I then matched it up with my white jegging I purchased from Pick 'n' Pay Clothing last month. I then used a lovely bright scarf to give my outfit a splash of colour with a break of gold jewellery. The Shoes I've had for about 3 years and only wore it now can you believe it? terrible hey! My bag and accessories are from Practical Gifts.









Tip: If you wearing black and white and feel you need to spice it up , its always great to add a bright accessory. 

Happy Monday and have a lovely week ahead.

What I'm Wearing:
Top : Mr Price
Jegging: PNP Clothing
Shoes : Model Me
Jewellery : Practical Gifts
(We have one gold necklace in stock if you would like to purchase it.)
Bag: Practical Gifts

Review : Avon Nutraeffects

Hello and Happy Friday

On the blog today I discuss my new facial cleanser and toner that I purchased by Avon. I've been on the search for a everyday face wash for a long long time because I really want to get back into a skin routine again #thestruggle.

My cousin started selling Avon I went through the book and saw one for sensitive skin which was perfect for me and even better it does not cost a arm and a leg. Before I used the product I was not happy with my skin because it felt super dry especially my cheeks and T-zone area.

I love the fact that the cleanser is self-foaming along with the natural clean scent it has because when I apply certain facial products I get some sort of funny rash or sting afterwards but with this face wash I had none. After washing my face with the cleanser I immediately apply the toner which also have the same clean fresh scent with no sting after applying, leaving my face fresh and clean. My next purchase would be the day and night cream.

This product can be used on Normal/Combination/ Sensitive Skin. 

Why try this product :
  • Not expensive
  • Great for sensitive skin

I rate this product 4/5 
Theses products can be bought via avon reps. 
You can view the nutraeffects range (click here)

I would love to know what face wash you currently using leave me a comment below or let me know on Social Media especially if you have sensitive skin . I would love to try them out.

Thanks for reading. Have a lovely Weekend.

OOTD : Happy Spring With Some Winter Chills

Hello All , its Thursday which means one more sleep till the weekend yay !
 I've been meaning to do this post for a long time and is way overdue but did not get the chance to do so. As we all know Spring season begun but here in Cape Town not so much,the sun may shine but there's a wind in the air that still gives us the winter chill. 

In this look post I will be styling this gorgeous poncho from Hannah Collection which I won about a month ago (lucky me), along with the most comfortable jegging from Mr Price(you have to get of these beauties comfy for days trust me) and this floral top from a local store. I used the floral top in this specific look because it gave some hint of spring. I then added a geometric statement necklace to give it that extra edge and my Nike sneakers to give it that casual look.  

What do you think about my spring look?









(Trying to get some Spring Sunshine lol).

I have a giveaway soon so make sure you following me on social media especially facebook :).

Review : Essence Beauty Products


Hi Beauties

On the blog today I talk some lipgloss, lipstick and eyeliner. About a few weeks ago TakeaLot had a hibernation sale and immediately I headed to the beauty section to see which Essence products were available(great bargains). I've been going essence crazy lately(expect more essence reviews), I think the products are amazing and super affordable and I love exposing such brands to my readers because it does not burn a hole in your wallet.

Everybody has been raving about Nude lipsticks, eye pallets ect ect so I thought lets try some nude products out, oh and to those who love the cat eye look there is such a fab eye-liner from ESSENCE that you must get.

My thoughts below...

Essence XXXL Long Lasting Lipgloss (06 Soft Nude): 
I love the fact that its nude but in my opinion it did not quite fit my complexion and feel that it would go better with someone who has a lighter complexion to me.I also didn't like the MATT effect that it gave but maybe another shade would do.

Essence long lasting Lipstick (06 Dark Nude):
I'm not really a lipstick person but this one sold me over compared to the lipgloss because it made my lips look natural just the way I like it. 

Essence 2-1 eyeliner pen:
In the pics below you will see the thick part of the pen looks almost like a highlighter tip 'flat based' which is more easier to apply which is great and the thin part of the pen is more 'koki like' also easy to apply. 





Thanks for reading, let me know if you love nude make-up products and also let me know which other cool essence products are great, Although I'm not an expert in make-up I enjoy learning about it and experimenting trying to find myself to adapt to beauty products its fun.

Stay Fabulous
