Beauty products are my weakness, Every time I pop into Dischem or Clicks I want to buy the whole store, especially after watching YouTube videos where other beauty gurus try out fabulous products. Which made me come to this blogpost about beauty products that all beauty blogger wish they had or currently lusting over. Most of the amazing beauty products are unavailable in our country or we would need to shop online and ship it here. I religiously watch Carli Bybel and Desi Perkins videos, lusting over the products they have and how easily accessible it is to them.

Hey Loves! Today should be Top 5 Tuesday but I have been meaning to post these pics from the new Oh So Heavenly range. I am a huge fan of their product range, the smells and consistency of the body lotions and body butters are amazing and so worth the price. If you have been following me for some time you would know I am a sucker for fruity sweet scents and lotions and these products are up my alley. I love feeling moiturised from head to toe and the body butter sure does the job. I also just ran out of my Wooloworths Caramel Handcream, so I have been using this Happy Hands hand cream and its amazinggggg!! Talk about not leaving a chalky feeling after application. I have yet to try the anti-perspirant and body spritzer, but as soon as I do, I will be letting you babies know. I hope you having a fabulous week! Lotsa loves and hugs xxx

Hey Pretties. So as you know I suffer from Acne and blemishes and after trying so many products on the marketa nd watching youtube videos I finally came across a product that is gentle on the skin and also cleanses without drying. The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil Skincare range is amazing. I used to use Eucerin products then the Environ range but I found that my skin did not change except dry out my skin. After watching quite a few youtube gurus rave about this product I decided to purchase it and it is awesome. Not only does my face feel cleansed but also still leaves some moisture on the surface of my skin. I am really enjoying this product but will do and updated skin routine closer when I see more results. Hoep you enjoy and let me know if you are currently using them or tried something better. xxx

When I talk about products being available here in South Africa am not talking about online shopping and paying for shipping and duties but actually physically visiting their stores and testing out the makeup. It sucks that some brands don't make it here to our country and we have to pay for shipping and duties, which I don't mind paying but when you calculate how much it ends up costing it’s really not worth it because you end up paying double which is more than what the products are worth.

With that being said I put together a few brands which I wish could come to South Africa so we can experience what international bloggers/beauty gurus and beauty lovers get to see on a daily basis. Brands like Nars and Benefit Cosmetics to name a few have products which I am dying to try but they are so out of reach... But let’s face it, it’s not hard for a girl to wish! :-)

“For Attractive LIPS, speak words of kindness. For lovely EYES, seek out the good in people. For a slim FIGURE, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful HAIR, let a child run their fingers through it once a day. For POISE, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. People, more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself and the other for helping others.” ― Sam Levenson

I love watching these types of videos, so I had to film my latest purchases from our Drugstores here in South Africa.

Please comment below letting me know if you have tried any of the products mentioned. And as you know I am trying out this new Foundation, please be honest and tell me if its working or not?? LOL

Thank you again for watching and your support. List below what videos you would like to see next.

Lotsa love

Stay Blessed & Enjoy the video!

Hey Lovelies

So if you didn't know I am obsessed with nail polish, I think I change my nail colour at least twice a week.. I guess I love to add colour to every outfit I wear... So I thought of doing a product haul with the new colours I bought as well as hair products I'm trying out and new make up.

Let me know what you think...

The three colours in this set I bought from Cotton on. I absolutely love pastel nail polish and this set was perfect for everyday looks. ANDDDD it was on Sale for R40 for this pack.. Talk about a bargain.. So bonus LOL..

The rest of these product I found at our department store Clicks, which stocks all the make up, beauty and hair products you can think of.. I always seem to drift to the brand Essence, I guess because it is very affordable and you get value for your money. I have been using their products for some time now, and I am loving it.

I came across these two colours and I had to buy them at R14,95 each.

When it comes to my hair, I love trying new products from shampoo's to hair masks to hot oil treatments and my friend has been raving about the new Dove range, so I had to purchase it and try it ANDD, I'M In-love!! If you have curly dry hair, this is the solution, it is awesomeeee!!!

The oils in the shampoo and conditioner leave your hair softer and shinier, and the mask I use once a week gives your air the lift you been wanting. Ultimate Score!! :-)

I also came across new mascara and eye liner, I wouldn't say I am a huge eye liner fan, more of a liquid liner girl, but I saw this new water proof liner that I had to try and I must say I am happy, NO SMUDGE, and it lasts the whole day!!

BLENDER SPONGE: Okay this pretty lil sponge I have seen all over YouTube and I have been waiting to get my hands on it and FINALLLLY I did! Whoop Whoop, It is the best foundation sponge, talk about great coverage and its so soft on your skin, you feel like you are giving yourself a make over!!!

Definitely I did score, and I know I will be visiting them again!

P.S If you didn't know, next week I will be going to cape town for JUSTIN BIEBER!!! I can hardly wait, I know I am old to be a fan, but hey a trip to cape town for a week, who will say no... LOL
