Simone Slater [한국의 외국인 생활]

Hey Loves, so I've been gone for a minute and I owe you some catch up stories.
This past week has been hectic busy for me, I wasn't at work for two days due to an operation that I had to undergo as in my mouth. It was the most painful experience ever as I was suffering from a cracked tooth that had exposed my nerves and anything cold or hot was excruciating. So Tuesday morning my hubby I booked an appointment for an extraction. Talk about a complicated process. I arrived at the Dental Surgeon room and they inject me with four anesthetic injections. My mouth was completely numb on one side. I then went into the surgery and they started operating. I felt the drill in my tooth and started to panic. The dentist then injecting another four more injections while I was under the knife. *Take note I was full awake throughout the whole process* Dale stood watching while I closed my eyes because I could not stand the chance of watching what they were putting in my mouth. After all the nudging and pulling and cutting, my tooth was finally out in 3 pieces. He first drilled to crack it fully, they extracted with pliers and the cut my gum and stitched it back together. When I left the surgeon I looked like someone had punched me in the mouth. But all in all I was so grateful that the process was over and now recovering with quite a few stitches and drinking soup everyday. 

Besides that I have been testing out the Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation and I am so happy with this product. I do have a video Review if you would like to watch here

I have filmed a couple videos for you lovelies which I will be editing this weekend so don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel so you don't miss out!

I hope you a have a fabulous weekend and Stay Blessed!

When it comes to my morning routine, getting ready in under an hour for work seems impossible, only because I have to do my makeup and hair before I leave the house and that can take longer than expected. I have always had the same routine when it comes to applying my makeup, But recently I started trying out more products which required more time in the mornings to apply.

The new Estée Lauder Foundation & Advance Night Repair Serum are just some of the new products which are included in my morning ritual. The steps are as follows:

1. P R I M E
 Estée Lauder Advance Night Repair Serum (my primer)

2. E Y E S
 Essence Cosmetics Eyebrow Pencil (fill in the brows)
LA Girl Cosmetics HD Concealer (define the brows)
BH Cosmetics Wild Child Palette (Gold/Rose Gold shade)
Yardley Volume Lash Mascara (first coat applied, second coat after makeup is done)
Essence Cosmetics Liquid Ink Eyeliner (lines the lash line)
BH Cosmetics Wild Child Palette (White for incorner)

3. F A C E
 Estée Lauder Double Wear Foundation (#Bronze)
LA Girl Cosmetics HD Concealer (if my underey circles are bad)
MAC Cosmetics Fix Powder (#NC44) (if I need to set it)

4. C H E E K S
 Maybelline Setting Powder (#Toffee - Used as Bronzer)
Catrice Cosmetics Highlighter (just above the Bronzer)
BH Cosmetics Blush Palette (between Bronzer & Highlight - I tend to mix three shades)

 5. L I P S

Hey Loves, so I finally got around to posting a new video for your loves. Sorry I have been gone for a minute. I have changed my foundation routine, trying and testing out the Estée Lauder DW foundation. I have been loving the results. Not only does it not Transfer on clothes but it gives you a matte finish which means you don't need to set with a powder. The texture is liquid and can be messy as there is no pump but that does not defeat the purpose of the foundation. Have you tried it out yet?
I am in shade Bronze, but thinking of purchasing a slightly darker colour for the summer months.





P R O D U C T S  M E N T I O N E D:
Estée Lauder DW Stay-in-place Foundation - Shade- Bronze R450-R480
Essence Brow Pencil
BH Cometics Wild Child Eyeshadow Pallete
Essence Cosmetics Longlasting Lipstick
Essence Cosmetics Lipgloss
Maybelline Illegal Definition Masacara
Essence Cosmetics Liquid Ink Eye Liner

O N M E:
White Tee - Mr Price
Earrings - Mr Price
Wedding Band - American Swiss

M U S I C: 
Ellie Goulding - Love Me Like You Do (Cosmic Dawn Remix)

 Hey Loves, if you follow my instagram account you would notice this striking red coat. Sorry ladies it is vintage, back when my mum shopped at Foschini, she bought a couple coast which have now become so useful especially during these chilly months. I decided to pair it with white to make the colour pop. Thanks to my handsome hubby for being my photographer.
Krispy Kreams & Starbucks set to be on our South African soil in 2016. 
The iconic brand will launch as the first KK Doughnut shop to venture into Africa.

Finally this amazing beauty brand has hit our country again. A few years ago, we did have access to Benefit Cosmetics but I had no clue about the brand so I never purchased any products. After watching and stalking other International Beauty Bloggers, I kind of got used to the brand name and the products they offered. And YAYYYYY we can buy them online without paying those over the top shipping rates. RED SQUARE online now stocks the Benefit Cosmetics ranges, So even if you do not stay in Cape Town or Johannesburg like me, then you can still enjoy the benefits of the brand in the comfort of your home.
Over the past few weeks I have been missing from the blogging community, delay in posts and YouTube uploads. As for my camera which decided to bail out on me, until I get it fixed I may only be able to film a video in a couple weeks. I know I know, I'm so sorry, You don't even understand the frustration I have at the moment.
