My first video for 2016. I'm so sorry for taking so long to film a video for you guys this year, a lot has been happening but I'm finally up and running with my new ringlight and set up. Many of you have asked me for my go to makeup look that I wear for work or if I'm running errands, so I decided to film it for you guys. I hope you do enjoy and don't forget all the products are listed below so you too can recreate this look.
After much anticipation, and 7 months later, our Wedding video trailer finally surfaced. To think we were married seven months ago is crazy and we now have the memories to watch over and over again. I do hope you enjoy and if you did not know we planned this wedding in under 4 weeks. Read more about the wedding planning here.
I can't believe we are already in another year. Last year flew by so fast and we already 4 days into the new year. With so much to do and new prospects coming up I can only say new and better things are coming our way. This year I am definitely going to be blogging and filming more often and creating content that you want to see. I would appreciate you tweeting me some ideas for youtube and the blog or you can inbox me via facebook.
Over the past few weeks I have had the opportunity to experience the joys of LUX igniting the spark in my life with their fragrance body products. Besides the pretty packaging in which it was sent, the aroma that came from the box as I opened it only had me wishing to test and try it out then and there. That evening I ran a bath and filled it with the Soft Touch Pink Floral Infusion body wash which created a perfect bubble bath after a busy day at the office. I added just a few drops to my bath water and it did the rest. Totally relaxing and definitely ignited some spark. To top it off who does not like a sweet something to nibble on? The pink macaroons was the perfect touch to my bubble bath which I shared with Dale.

What was included in the presspack:

- Soft Touch Pink Floral Infusion Body Wash
- Soft Touch Pink Floral Infusion Bar Soap 100g
- Soft Touch Pink Floral Infusion Bar Soap 175g
- USB stick
- Candles
- Macaroons
Impression:
First impression was OMG!! And then I played around with the products and I fell inlove. Recommend purchasing these affordable products, even for a gift especially for the festive season. Which women doesn't like to receive gifts to pamper herself with. I have been using LUX for years so its not a first with the brand but a first with this fragrance.
Pros:
- Affordable price point
- Very fragranced
- Leaves your skin feeling supple and fresh
- The body wash doubles as a showergel and bubble bath
- If you have sensitive skin and react to fragrance soaps or shower gel then this product is not suitable for you.
If you would like to purchase any of these products, you can at leading retail stores like Clicks and Dischem. Prices range from:
- Lux Body Wash 200ml – R21,99
- Lux Body Wash 400ml – R34,99
- Lux Body Wash 750ml – R34,99
- Lux Bar Soap 100g – R5,99

So firstly we going to talk about fashion and then get into the beauty products. Most of the products listed are items that I would personally want *hint hint* But as you know Christmas is not about the gifts, its family time and remembering the real reason why we celebrate Christmas as Christians.
Dresses are a perfect gift especially in South Africa we are experiencing one of the hottest times of the year. A cocktail length dress is wearable and can be dressed down or up for any occasion. You can also pair it with a nude pair of heels for a dinner with your bae or drinks with your girls. One of the most famous palettes to ever hit the BH Cosmetics website is the Carli Bybel Palette. Since it launched it has been sold out and on pre-order for a few weeks, the site even crashed, and I'm not blaming her because the palette is absolutely beautiful. I am dying to get my hands on it and every other beauty blogger. LOL. After watching DesiMakeup's vlog I fell inlove with the Tarte Cosmetics Tarlette palette, The colours are so gorgeous and apparently the texture and pigmentation of the product is amazing. So I am definitely trying to make a major purchase on the tarte website. If you know of any local websites that do ship to South Africa, please comment below and let me know. Thanks! I also included some home decor/workspace items just to jazz up your home desk or office. A girl can never have enough rosegold in her room.

This video will help you achieve a simple everyday look without going crazy and drag-queen. I tackle liquid winged liner, perfect eyebrows, Kylie Jenner lips, contour and highlighting the right way, and also using specific colours for your skin tone. Most of us watch videos and see the shades of bronzers and highlighters and expect it to work for us, but as a darkskinned girl, a pink under tone highlighter or a grey bronzer does not do it for me. So basically you need to try out different shades and brands that agree and work with you. Don't buy a product for the sake of buying but because you are going to use it. I hope you enjoy this video.
Don't forget to give this video a thumbs up if you would like more videos like this and also comment below what you would like to see next. I need the inspiration :-) Let me know which days you prefer me to upload videos and times.
Also if you don't know, you can watch my videos in HD, just select the option from the settings tab on the video, either 720p or 1080p
Love you guys lots and thank you so much for the support. You don't understand how much it means to me to see you liking and sharing my videos and commenting that my tips and tricks worked for you. Have a lovely week babes and I will see you in the next video xx
