Men's style for winter


The other day I was told that I hardly ever post anything for my male readers. Mind you, I didn’t even know I had male readers. Nevertheless, here I am doing one for the dudes. I absolutely love doing inspiration posts, so I thought why not do one on winter fashion for guys. I don’t consider myself a fashion guru, I like what I like and I tend to share what I like. I’ve gathered a few images that have caught my eye and I hope you guys (and girls enjoy it).

Review: Revlon Colorstay Foundation


As a blogger it is so easy to get swept up in the excitement of new products popping up everywhere. This frequently means that we forget about the products we know, love and trust.  I am a very curious soul and always on the lookout for new things to try: especially products other bloggers rave about. This was certainly the case when it came to foundation.

I have been sampling a lot of other brands but, for some reason I keep drifting back towards Revlon Colorstay. I’ve been using it for years now and, as far as I am concerned, it’s ideal. Let me tell you a little about the foundation.
 

What it says on the bottle

·         Wears for up to 24hours

·         Oil free and shine control

·         Natural flawless look

My experience with the foundation

The bottle does not lie. There have been instances where I have been out clubbing and the only thing that survived the sweaty, sticky night was the foundation. With a bird’s nest on my head and raccoon eyes the next day, my skin still looked fresh and flawless. It goes on very smoothly and blends really well whether I use my fingers or a brush. (I prefer to use my fingers however). Because it promises to stay put for 24 hours, you would expect it to feel heavy, but that is not the case at all. What’s even more fabulous is that you only need a little bit for maximum coverage. This means you won’t have to replace it for a long time. Revlon Colorstay is definitely a lifesaver. If you are keen to get a flawless, natural look without the heavy feeling, I suggest you get your butt to the mall and buy it.

PS. I usually get mine at Edgars

 

Saving ALERT!

Words on Wednesday

Hey everyone!

How has the week been treating you so far? Whenever I am feeling the midweek slump (or any other slump for that matter) I always try to think of things that make me really happy. Just to cheer myself up. Recently I won one of the loveliest giveaways ever on Desle’s blog here

I completely forgot to share some of the images I took with you guys. So in an effort to get myself out of this slump; have a look at what I won on one of my absolute favourite blogs. Do yourself a favour and have a look at Desle’s blog. It’s beyond fabulous!



My favourite part of the prize by far was the hand written card!

Life begins at...Sobriety?

That seems to be the case for me. Let me start by saying, had it not been for a near death experience, I would certainly not be writing this...
