Pink & Purple Dots

Hi guys! Happy Wednesday. How has your week been ?? Over the weekend it was the annual Avon Breast Cancer Awareness Walk - this Year they were celebrating the 15th year of the walk - but because of Covid - this is the first year that the walk happened virtually - so that meant we could join in the fun . Usually, this event takes place yearly in Johannesburg - so it allowed so many more people to join in on the fun this year. Everyone could do it out and about in their own neighbourhood and support this cause. I do hope they will continue to offer a virtual offer next year too - as everyone all over SA could take part.   Every one  of the participants got a T-shirt to wear on the day as well as a gorgeous buff, a goodie bag and some fun products to use on the day. Some of the fun goodies in the goodie bag were sunscreen, hand sanitizer, protein bar and shake to use on the day. Alex and I opted for the 4km walk (there was an 8km option too ) and we had loads of fun wearing ...

Hi guys ! Happy Tuesday. How was your Monday ?? Did you have a nice weekend ?  Today I will be sharing my first Breast Cancer Awareness mani with you guys - as October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. As always PinkDrive has a few great options on their site to donate. They have such amazing brooches this year you can buy to support the cause - and let's be real who can't do with a pretty brooch for a great cause ??  As I always try to donate to Breast Cancer Awareness causes  , I did a matching mani to show my support.

Hi guys ! Happy Monday ! Hope you had a great weekend . Today I'm sharing a fun and super easy Breast Cancer Awareness mani with you using two Catrice polishes. This look is SUPER easy, so I included a little tutorial at the end of the post. The two Catrice polishes I used where Fuchsiarama and I'm So aNude.  (I received the Fuchsiarama in my Breast Cancer Awareness pack... I'm so aNude is a polish from my own collection ) So onto the nail look - And the tutorial. I used a small dotting tool to create the breast cancer ribbon, but you can use a nail art pen / toothpick .. Whatever you prefer. So again .. As I mentioned last week... You can still enter the Give-away...  And here's how : (CONTEST CLOSED ! ) I will be giving away 2 R500 Pink Catrice Hampers : Follow Catrice on Facebook  Catrice SA  &  Catrice SA Twitter  .

  Hi guys ! Hope you had a great weekend ! As you all know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month , and as part of this , Catrice Cosmetics would like to cheer survivors and support the fighters.  I was asked to come up with a fun pink inspired look. I will show the look at the end but I'm also giving a mini-review about each product and a little give-away in the end too ! Catrice Liquid Metal Eyeshadow Mauves Like Jagger This is a stunning metallic eyeshadow colour , and really gives a liquid like effect. I love how the eyeshadow is shaped too with little "waves" in the eyeshadow. I used this on the centre of my eye in the make-up look. Catrice Better Than False Lashes Ultra Black Mascara One word - WOW ! I love the volume this mascara gives your lashes .. But the best part for me personally is this has staying power. I do tend to "rub" my eyes through the day, and this mascara stayed in place. I even had to work to take it off at nigh...

Hi guys ! Hope you all had a great week. This is another busy weekend for me.. But really looking glad the week is over. I'm FINALLY feeling better too... Yeah me ! Today I'm sharing another gorgeous nail polish with you . This is from the China Glaze 2013 Breast Cancer Awareness range .  China Glaze This One's For You is iridescent hex glitter in a shimmery pearly base. The base also has a gorgeous pink shimmer in it. It will be perfect to layer over different base colours too . I chose to wear two coats of the polish , so it isn't totally opaque but I loved how girly and sweet it looked.  The formula was amazing. It wasn't too thick but the glitter pay off is pretty good too.  Here's the photos of this gorgeous colour - Anyone got any fun plans for the weekend ? Hope it will be an amazing one non the less.

Hi guys ! Hope everyone had a fun weekend ! Mine was nice and relaxing , just wish the weekend could be a little longer . As you know, October is also Breast Cancer Awareness month. T his should be an issue very close to our hearts . This is something that can happen to any woman (or man, you'd be surprised to know more men than woman die of breast cancer each year ) So remember, if you ever should feel a change in the shape of your breast, or any change you feel isn't normal, rather have it checked out, to be safe. If it's detected early, your chances are so much better ♥   Let me share my Breast Cancer Awareness mani with you - The colours I used - Pinky - China Glaze Unrefined Ring - OPI Alpine Snow with a breast cancer ribbon using OPI If You Moust You Moust and a pink 2mm round stud from the Born Pretty store ( Born Pretty 2mm Studs  ) Middle, Ring and Thumb - OPI If You Moust You  Moust If you are doing any posts to support Breast Canc...
