Desk-Side Beauty Essentials

Now that summer is officially here, it means that so is the office air conditioning. I don’t know about you, but my office subscribes to the more is more philosophy when it comes to air conditioning, so I feel perpetually parched and also, quite cold. Luckily I have a few bits and pieces on my desk which help keep the dryness at bay: Eucerin Aquaphor Jules introduced me to this and I’ve never looked back. Fantastic for dry lips and any other areas that need a shot of moisture, this ointment soothes irritation and hydrates dry patches in a flash.…

Tutorial: Easy Earth-Toned Eyes

January Favourites: Camilla

Smashbox Liquid Halo HD Foundation Jules and I were given a bottle of this a couple of months ago and I must be honest, I didn’t touch it until the beginning of this year because my love affair with Dior Diorskin Nude BB Cream was still going strong. However, I am kicking myself for not using it sooner because it is gorgeous! Although the formulation is lightweight, the coverage is excellent and it evens out my skin tone beautifully. The finish is luminous and glowy (my personal favourite, as you will no doubt be aware of by now) and it…

Summer Beauty: The Lookbook

Lauren Hutton at the Oscars in 1975 | All Dolled Up

I spotted this picture of Lauren Hutton at the 1975 Oscars in the latest issue of Allure magazine and was so inspired by her natural, summery look that I immediately went on Pinterest to find more images like it. I love how natural her hair and make-up is, and how the overall effect is glowing and healthy. Sun-kissed cheekbones, long beachy waves, a dusting of freckles and luminous skin are the order of the day so break out that bronzer and be inspired by these other natural beauties: Images via 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6

Best of Beauty 2013: Make-up

December Favourites: Camilla

Tom Ford Neroli Portifino Eau de Parfum Summer. Italian Riviera. Sparkling oceans and fresh, lush foliage. Do you want to smell like that? I know I did, and now I do (hopefully)! This gorgeous offering from Tom Ford contains citrus oils and floral notes with amber undertones and is, in my humble opinion, the perfect fresh, zesty scent for the warmer months. To me, it smells clean, cool and above all, sophisticated – everything I want my summer to be. I have been wearing it every day since I got it and have received nothing but compliments. Sometimes I layer…

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. I’m going to make an exception for this one though, as I recently visited the UK (did you watch my haul video?) and most of the favourites listed below were purchased at the time and I’ve been using them on the daily ever since: Benefit Erase Paste (No. 2 Medium) I recently ran out of my Bobbi Brown Corrector after using…
