my week in pictures, pictures, instagram, blogger, lifestyle, canvas fashions, south african blogger, south african beauty youtuber, south african beauty blogger
This week went by so fast, I can't believe the month is almost over. I started reviewing the Nimue Skin Starter pack which was sent by rubybox, you read about it HERE.
The products are amazing and even though I can't really give you a full review yet, I must say I am loving the way my skin is feeling.

In the week I decided to thread my face. Oh My Gosh! Ladies please do not do it. It hurt like hell. I do not wish the pain on anyone. I thought because I have been threading my brows and upper-lip, it would feel the same but I was fooled. Although my skin feels so soft and my makeup application is smoother, the breakouts were crazy and I am still recovering from it. I broke out in tiny white heads, which the beautician said it was likely to happen so yes I put myself in the situation. But I didn't realise it would be so bad. And to top it off I couldn't wear makeup for the 2 days after it so walking around bare face was a challenge.

I managed to film two videos this week, one being a dramatic makeup look for Music festivals. I was totally inspired by the gorgeous Desi Perkins and decided to recreate it and add a personal touch to the look. The tutorial is easy and affordable especially for those who are attending Ultra this weekend or preparing for Coachella :-) 

Another huge announcement happened on social media. Kim & Kanye finally release pictures of their baby boy. And what an adorable picture, I had to Instagram it and talk about his cuteness overload.

On Wednesday I had dinner with Marlize of KandyKaneMakeup. She's such a gem and so down to earth. It just happened she was in town for work so I could not help but meet with her for dinner and drinks. After being internet buddies for so long, we finally met and couldn't stop talking, I think the waiter came to take our order 3 times and we were still chatting away.

Its Thursday which means another video!! With Ultra coming up this weekend I thought of filming a cool video with alott of bright colours. Music festivals like Ultra, Coachella etc allow you to create extravagant makeup looks. I was inspired after watching Desi Perkins makeup tutorial using Neon colours, so I decide to recreate the look with products that are easily accessible. I hope you enjoy this video loves!

Last week I received this package from rubybox which contained the new Nimue Skin products. As you all know I suffer with the odd acne breakout and have a lot of pigmentation and dark spots. So when rubybox reached out to me to test this amazing brand and document it, I gladly made myself available. I first had to do an online skincare test which I did on the Diagnostic Tool. Once I completed the online skin analysis, I found my skin classification and they also listed the products I need for my type of skin. There are a host of products for every skin type, so it helps to take the test to come to a conclusion on your skin type and the product options they provide.
Hey Loves, Happy Friday! I can't believe its already half way through the month. It was Valentine's Day not so long ago right? So today's post is more of a lifestyle post to catch up on what happened during the week if you missed out on my social media. So if you interested, keep scrolling.

Hey loves. Many of you asked about my current hair routines and how I maintain healthy looking hair. I hav sides a number of hair products but I decide to consolidate the products I'm currently using. From shampoos and conditioners to hair oils. I change up my routine from time to time so my hair does not become stripped of its natural oils. I also visit the salon once every 3 months for a colour because of my grey hairs.

Hey loves, so there's an exciting giveaway with one of my favourite brands. I have been using this brand for so many years and have always been happy with the condition my hair has been in. With that being said, TRESemmé as the official hair sponsor for New York Fashion Week has launched an amazing competition for us South Africans. You could win a trip to New York and experience fashion week in September 2016. Sounds exciting enough right? Well hello who wouldn't want a free trip to the city of fashion and mingle with the high rollers and top fashionistas. I know I wouldn't mind at all.
Yay for another video this month. Its all about Valentine's an achieving the perfect glam look especially if you are going out with your man or girlfriends and you want to look good.

 This Valentines look is simple and easy to achieve. If you do not have the exact products I have mentioned, don't stress, use what you have at home to recreate the look. And don't forget to tag me and upload it to my Facebook page so I can see the looks you guys have recreated.

 One of the funniest videos I have ever created. Dale and I sat down and finally filmed a couples video. On my social media I asked what type of video you would like to see Dale in and most of you routed for the Husband does my makeup challenge. Dale was such a sport throughout the video and just a side note, I did not help him with anything, I laid most of my makeup and brushes in-front of him and he has to figure out what goes where. He actually didn't do too bad, besides my liquid liner that ended up making me look like I have raccoon eyes. Grab a drink and sit and watch it and let me know what you think. I will be filming more videos with Dale, so leave some suggestions below.
