Pink & Purple Dots

Hi guys. Happy Friday ! Hope you had a wonderful week .  As promised - today I bring the last instalment of the goodies that was in my Essence 2017 Advent Calendar. I really enjoyed opening the calendar with Alex as he was opening his Lego one daily . This is the second year I got the calendar ( for those of you wondering it's totally different from the 2016 version ) . I will be getting another one next year if Essence decides to bring it to South Africa again. I really like the variety of products you get . So onto the last products.  Essence Nail Polish in The Christmas Story This is a dark vampy colour - although we have Summertime now - I will be keeping this one for Autumn time as I feel it would be perfect. I generally really like Essence nail polish so I'm sure this one will be a winner.  Essence All About Matt! Fixing Powder I have mention this powder before - it really is a favourite of mine. While I prefer loose powder for setting my make-up every ...

Hi guys ! Happy Friday . How has your week been ? Mine has been pretty busy at work - and next week will be pretty busy too.  Today I am sharing some new lippies I'm loving for winter from Avon - The Avon Perfectly Matte lipsticks. I have reviewed a few different shades in my #SampleSunday series so I was excited to try some more deeper winter appropriate colours I was sent. The formula on these lippies aren't drying at all - they are pretty comfortable for a matte lipstick. Which is great - since most matte lipsticks tend to make your lips super dry and dehydrated.  The colour doesn't last the whole day - I would say a good 4/5 hours and does last through coffee or tea breaks. The best part is the colour can be re-applied without looking cakey and cracking. The three colours I was sent in order of the swatches : Avon Perfectly Matte Wild Cherry , Avon Perfectly Matte Superb Wine and Avon Perfectly Matte in Red Supreme. The berry and red tones is perfect fo...

Hi guys. Happy Friday !  Today I'm sharing some GOSH cosmetics I received this week to help you get a Valentine's Day look. I received 4 products and I'm sharing them with you today. GOSH Forever Metallic Eyeshadow Stick (R139 ) - Silver Rose This is such a gorgeous colour. I didn't use any eyeshadow primer, and this colour lasted the whole day. This is a very creamy and soft easy to apply eyeshadow stick, and has a waterproof formula. The shade Silver Rose is such a gorgeous colour, I didn't feel the need to use any other eyeshadow , this is PERFECT on it's own. Available in 8 shades.  GOSH Waterproof Volume Mascara (R130 ) So it's no secret - My favourite type of mascara is ANY waterproof mascara. This mascara provides you with a smudge-free look all day long (which is a bonus because I touch my eyes so much during the day ). The super sculpting rubber brush adds dramatic volume, lenght and definition without clumping or flaking. GOS...
