Wet n Wild comes to South Africa

Yesterday I was speaking about how excited I am about the lipstick I had received in a blog sale because Wet n Wild is not available here!.

I was browsing twitter when I saw Freebees PR (view their blog here) tweet about Wet n Wild coming to South Africa!

Go and like their Facebook page (here) so that we can all know when exactly it gets here. 

Sleek Pout Polish in Electro Peach

I mentioned in yesterdays post that I received this Sleek product when I ordered a few things from a blog sale. I hadn't tried Sleek when the full range was sold in South Africa. Zando now sells a select amount of their products.

When I saw the colour, I thought it wouldn't suit me. I never wear coral or orange. I tried it on and changed my mind immediately. Unlike most lip balms, this one is incredibly pigmented. Its definitely not a sheer lip balm. Its also not too sticky which I like. I did need to reapply often but I do that with most lip balms. I also like that it has SPF15, making it perfect for the warm weather thats to come.

I think its perfect for summer when I feel like wearing very little makeup but I still want a pretty lip color!

A little blogging hiatus

So, if you are a follower on my blog, you would have noticed that I haven't posted in a while. I feel like I do this often and I end up having to apologies all the time. As much as I do not want to give you a list of excuses, the last two weeks have been crazy.
I had the flu and I was trying to get an assignment done. I have also been given a new assignment and I have been trying to focus on that. I also went for a hair cut, which for me is a big deal because I never cut my hair. It is always long. I took quite a bit off and its still ridiculously long.

As I type this, my lip has swollen to about double its usual size (too much info?) due to an allergic reaction to something unknown.
Its been a bit crazy in my life.

Anyways, as this week comes to an end, I thought I would share with you the very few highlights of the past two weeks.

A candy bar!

Supper with my friends (my sock bun and ghetto gold chain made an appearance)

I bought a new Mac lipstick in the shade Media!

I was sent these to review and I am very excited about it.

What have been the highlight/s of your week?

Brands I wish were in South Africa- Chantecaille

Chantecaille is a luxury skincare and beauty brands that I have admired for a while. I cannot explain how beautiful their products are so I will just have to show you.

View their website (here) to see more of their beautiful products!

Wish list #1

Today I thought I would do a different kind of post. The following items are things I really want and I would like to purchase in the future.

The product I am most likely to purchase over the next few weeks is the Mac Lipstick in Hang Up, the Studio Fix concealer and the Essence bronzer.
The Batiste dry shampoo for dark hair is always sold out wherever I go so I shall just continue hunting for that.
The Revlon lip butters and the YSL Rouge Volupte always look beautiful but the price has put me off from buying them. I really do want to try one out though.
I have heard only great things about the Tangle Teezer and i figured my incredibly long and knotty hair could benefit from it!

Whats on your wish list?

Brands I wish were available in South Africa- Sigma Beauty

I have been watching beauty gurus on Youtube for several years and they all rave about Sigma Brushes. Although they do ship internationally, I wish I could find them conveniently in South Africa. Here are some of the products I would love to try from them.

They have a glove that you can wear to clean your brushes, makeup and brow tools but their best sellers are their brushes! The blue set is a travel kit while the black (which I will ask for my birthday next year, if I remember) is something I have always wanted.
