January Favourites // Camilla
Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance Palette How glorious? The shade selection is sublime (I am a warm-toned girl through-and-though), the shadows are insanely pigmented, they blend like a dream and they wear really well. And the applicator brush that comes with the palette is brilliant – hands down the best I’ve ever tried. I love the versatility of this palette too, you can create so many different types of looks, and a little pop of red/orange/ochre makes my eyes look so blue, which I love. The only slight downside for me is that the shadows kick up a lot of powder,…

December Favourites: Jules
Whenever I do a monthly favourites post, I usually try to stick to products that are available in SA because I know it can be a little frustrating falling in love with something that you can only buy overseas.

November Favourites: Jules
Aēsop Resurrection Aromatique Hand Balm I knew this was going to be a favourite the minute I opened the cap and breathed in the fragrant blend of mandarin rind, rosemary and cedarwood. The super moisturising and skin-softening formula absorbs into my skin without any greasiness and it’s ideal for regular use – in fact, I sometimes slather it on up to five times a day. My favourite hand cream by a country mile, this stuff saves my hands from dryness, flaking and callouses while filling my nose with herbaceous heaven. Highly, highly recommended. Aēsop body care products are available at…
