Stila Lipglaze Review

I recently received these Stila Lipglazes and I knew I just had to do a review on these 2 babies!

I will be reviewing 2 lipglazes today.Kitten and Rasberry. At first I thought Rasberry is going to be too red but it just looked so pretty ! It smells tutty fruity too :)When swatched , it gave a light red gloss, perfect to wear on it own as it gives that kick of colour.

Kitten looked like a nude shimmer and when I swatched, it did not surprise.It is a nude gloss with a bit of shimmer.Perfect to wear over a lipstick.

I must admit that I had a bit of trouble trying to figure out how to get the gloss out.It comes in a pen type of applicator.You have to twist the end a few times to get the colour out. Dont worry, it will not break :) just keep twisting.

Its not sticky at all.Long lasting gloss and very moisturising.

Hi Guys

So I went to this new salon called MIDORI and let me tell you that it was the best experience ever.Its located in Sandton in this really tall building called the World Trade Centre.

I took a leave day from work to be pampered (every girl MUST do this) and I spent the entire day getting massaged,sippin on cuppachino and coming out with an amazing hairstyle.

The ladies were so friendly and it really put me at ease as it was the first time getting my hair coloured.

I mostly love the blow wave they do! Nowadays, salons only use ghds to curl but MIDORI uses a round barrel brush and a hairdryer which made my curls last 3 whole days!
My new favourite spot even if its just a blowdry.I am still getting compliments everyday!

I took advantage of the special they are running.Full Colour, cut, highlights for R1000.My hair stylist did an awesome job and her name is Cecilia.

They are very reasonable despite what you may think.

Winter Beauty Tips

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!! Its getting quite chilly!

We all need to keep warm and also look after our skin during Winter.

Here are some tips i have gathered.Please comment with your Winter beauty Tips. :)

 

Colour Match

Most of us lose our summer colour during Winter,so it is important to make sure that your foundation and concealer still match you.If the colour looks too dark or orange on your skin tone,get a lighter colour that suits you.

.

Foundation Finish

Luminous and dewy finishes look best in Winter.They help hide imperfections such as dry and flakey skin.make sure your skin is super hydrated and use a foundation primer.

Shower Power

We all love taking HOT showers in Winter but they are BAD on dry skin!

Try a lukewarm shower or even better,Have a bath and pour some babyoil in the tub for smooth,soft baby skin :) 

Cleanser

Switch to  a creamier cleanser during the Winter months.

It will help maintain the skins natural protective barrier.

Exfoliation

Avoid exfoliators and toners that are high in alcohol.It may feel refreshing but alcohol evaporates and strips away moisture.Look for alcohol free products this Winter.

Kissable Lips

This is a PAINFUL problem for me in Winter.use a rich,moisturizing lip balm with vitamin E or coconut oil and apply regularly.To heal painful cracks,buy a lip balm that contains tree oil.

Also what works for me,is gently brushing my lip with a dry toothbrush.It brushes away all the flakiness and..... Do NOT lick your lips!
