#TBT Got Inked

Thought I would share these photos from when I got my "la belle muse" tattoo a few month ago. I was just looking at them & thought you might like to see them. This tattoo is tried for 1st place with the tattoo on my side/under my arm. It is really beautiful & feminine, & I am so glad Igot to share the experience with my friend Angelique & her fianc� Craig (he's a photographer).

Kiehl's 28 Day "Change Your Skin" Challenge - Week 2

Week 2 of my 28 Day Challenge has been a breeze! Using the Midnight Recovery Concentrate has really become a part of my routine every evening. I have honestly not missed 1 night! Awesome right?!

So, while I am having a great time, I thought I would share with you how a few of my followers are going along!

Kamielle says " I advice all ladies to get a bottle of @KiehlsSA's Midnight Recovery Concentrate. #ChangeYourSkin"

And this is an email I received from Nooreen "I am really enjoying the product, winter is not the best season for my skin. I was having some issues with the skin on my forehead and around my mouth - it was dry, and the concentrate has really helped with that. Bonus my skin feels soft and smooth, other than my chin area issues, its a great product. Highly recommend"


Before:

End of Week 2:

Other than my usual "lack of sleep" dark circles, I am happy with the texture, & overall look of my skin. And yeah Im wearing a bathrobe - what can I say. It was bedtime!

Converse GET DIRTY Event OOTD

Sometimes you have to GET DIRTY, & that's exactly what I did this past weekend! I attended the Converse GET DIRTY event in Newtown, Johannesburg. And although I didn't wear Converse sneakers, I did get this rad Tee from Zando. It's a men's small but still pretty large on me, but I think I made it work. Besides, it was like 6 degrees so I was happy for the extra fabric hahaha

I had such a great time with my friend Lisa! We danced soooo much it was amazing! There were 3 stages with all sorts of performances by SA's best bands & DJs. And there was even bumper cars!!! Yes - that's how cool this event was! These are just a few snaps we took in the hotel before leaving for the event. Didn't take my kid (camera to you) to the event, I wanted to dance man!!!

Kiehl's "Change Your Skin" Challenge - I'm ready!!!

Last week I shared with you this exciting Kiehl's "CHANGE YOUR SKIN" campaign using the Midnight RecoveryConcentrate (see post here). And this week I will embark on my 28 day journey, where I hope to see my skin look more radiant, & hydrated as we go into the winter season. So today, I thought I would tell you all a bit about my skin type, my daily routine etc.

As you can see in the picture, my skin is quite uneven. And I have freckles too. I also have constant dark circles under my eyes, which is why I almost always use concealer. I have poor sleeping habits so I just try to cover up rather than get enough sleep. I would say I have normal skin, it is not dry or oily. In terms of break-outs & blemishes, I have never really had problem skin. My skin has always been clear, although I tend to get a few spots from time to time. 

My daily skincare routine consists of the following products:

1. Kiehl's Oil Free Cleanser
2. Kiehl's Oil Free Toner
3. Kiehl's Super Fluid UV Defense
4. Kiehl's Oil Free Moisturiser

(See full video of my skincare routine here)

However, at night I don't use the Super Fluid UV Defense. I don't use a night cream, I now I should, & at one point I did, I just didn't keep up with it. And in all honesty, there are some nights I don't put anything on my face, but I promise with this challenge, I am going to be absolutely religious with the Midnight Recovery Concentrate.

I cannot wait to share my progress with you all.

Perhaps this will convince you to try the product too :) 

Kisses

Quirky Stylista Boyfriend Jeans

T-shirt (Linx via Zando) / Belt (Boohoo) / Jeans (Quirky Stylista for Mr Price) / Wedges (H&M) / Clutch (Blackcherry) / Turban (China) / Bracelets (Sass Diva / YDE / China) / Necklace (Sass Diva)

I attended the Elle Magazine & Mr Price Rising Star 2013 blogger session here in Durban. I got to meet & chat with a great group of bloggers from my city. I will be telling you more about the Rising Star competition in a separate post, but for now it's all about my amazing boyfriend jeans from the Quirky Stylista range in Mr Price right now (see here). It is a different shape for me to try, but I am surprisingly loving it. You guys have to check out the range ASAP!

By the way guys, I know these H&M wedges have been featured quite a bit since I got them, but seriously I cannot tell you how much I love them! It really is an obsession!!!

27PINKX Winter Make-Up Challenge

27 PINKX challenged myself & a few other awesome blogging girls to a Winter Make-Up Challenge where we had to choose our favourite winter make-up trend & translate it on a budget of R350!! We also had to use the pretty pink brushes from 27PINKX (available here for R370).  The inspiration behind my look was the Jill Stuart Fall runway make-up: Lilac Smokey Eyes.

I won't lie, shopping on a budget of R350 was not the easiest thing to do. I shopped at Clicks Gateway, & although they do stock a wide variety of brands, there weren't that many budget-friendly brands (in my opinion). Also, brands like Essence didn't have their shelves fully stocked with product so you sort of had to make do with what was on the shelves. I had lots of help from the lovely sales girls, & although I wish I had gotten more, I think I did a pretty descent job with what I did have :)

Products I used:

Charlie Longwear Foundation R79.99

Essence Silky Touch Blush R34.99

Essence 2 in 1 Mascara R44.99

Yardley Expert Eyes Gel Liner R 69.99

Accessoeize Lipstick in OBSSESSED R69.99

Essence 3D Duo Eyeshadow in Irresistible Purr-ple R 39.99

Brown Eye Pencil R5

TOTAL = R344.94

This is probably how my face looked the entire time I was shopping hahaha
