Aaaand, GO (get a cup of tea first though)!
On 8 April 2014 I will be making my way to America for the very first time, and boy oh BOY am I excited! My boyfriend and I are starting with Coachella, followed by a glorious road trip to San Francisco, and ending off with a couple of days in LA – bliss! But besides the sights and sounds of California, there is something even more spectacular coming my way: SEPHORA. Aaah yes, the hallowed isles of Sephora, packed to the brim with much-coveted beauty goodies…forget Disneyland, Sephora is the happiest place on earth. It goes without saying that I…
Aaaaand we’re back! After three glorious weeks of sun, sea and of course, a wedding, we’ve found ourselves back in a very cold and gloomy Cape Town. In order to prevent the inevitable post-holiday/post-most-amazing-wedding-of-all-time comedown, I did some shopping in Athens so I would have some things to play with when I got home. On my final day I found myself on my own as my boyfriend jetted off to Italy for a further two weeks, and with all the sights already seen, I decided to visit the biggest mall in Athens, creatively named “The Mall Athens”.

I’ve always been drawn to the packaging and branding of Bumble and bumble‘s products – quirky, humorous and fun, it epitomises everything that beauty should be.

A couple of you asked to see a haul of all the goodies I bought in London when I was there in April, so here it is. Unfortunately for my bank balance, I bought so much stuff that I need to split it up into two videos (sorry I’m not sorry) so here is the first one which is all about skincare. Some of these products can be bought in SA (marked with a *) and where applicable I’ve supplied links to websites that will ship here, many of them for free. Let me know in the comments if you…
So all my favourite and most-used products this month are from overseas but I had to be honest and include them because otherwise this wouldn’t really be a list of my monthly favourites! They’re all things I bought in London and have used pretty much every day since. By the way – do you guys want me to do a haul and show you all the stuff I bought or does that sound boring? Let me know in the comments. Mini product reviews for each of these after the jump.
