Introducing COLAB Dry Shampoo

Dry shampoo is one of those products that, once discovered, completely transformed my beauty routine. As someone who suffers (and I mean SUFFERS) with very thin, fine hair that I usually have to clean every single day, finding a product that would save me the time and hassle of washing and drying it on a daily basis was nothing short of miraculous. I thought the brands I had tried in SA were good, but then I tried COLAB on a visit to London and was hooked. I’m thrilled to announce that the brand is now available at Clicks and I…

Dischem, Clicks and Foschini Haul

I had been itching to do a “drugstore” haul for the longest time, so when payday rolled around I decided to head to Canal Walk (all the best shops are there, even though getting there after work can be painful) and I even managed to convince my trusty sidekick Jules to accompany me. Here’s a quick whistle-stop tour of what I got (including a mini-review of the products I have already tried). Avène Rich Compensating Cream.

I decided to treat myself to another bottle and…

NEW: Nip + Fab

Clicks certainly seem to be on fire at the moment, having recently brought gems like our much-loved Indeed Labs’ Hydraluron into the country. Latest on the list of hot new products is the range from Nip + Fab, created by the founder of celeb cult brand Rodial, Maria Hatzistefanis. I had seen the brand in Boots on various trips to the UK but didn’t know much about it, so I did a little research and discovered that they produce a highly respected skincare line. I popped into the branch at the V&A Waterfront and found all the Nip + Fab products…

Nail Polishes You Need

In the same way that every girl should have a capsule wardrobe of versatile classics that can be worn throughout the year, every girl should also have a collection of basic nail polishes for different occassions. Not everyone needs a fridge full of bottles like me (66 of them, to be exact) because a well-edited set of essential colours in good quality formulas will cover all the bases. This means that you can accessorise your more expensive “investment pieces” with cheap polishes in trendy shades when you want to mix things up. Here is my pick of the five best…
