Beauty must-have || Tangle Teezer + Beauty Blender!

Hey beauties!

today I want to share with you 2 products in which im oh so loving recently! , as you can tell from the title above it is the tangle teezer and beauty blender!


Tangle Teezer
Do you have knotted hair that hurts so bad when you have to brush it out? well say good bye to all those painful and tearful days !


The tangle teezer removes all your knots from your hair with almost no pain at all! I have very thick , long hair that just comes over my butt and to be honest I hated brushing my hair just because of the pain , ever since I got myself the tangle teezer I cant stop! . It has soft brissles which doesn't cause as much split ends and hair breakage as a normal brush does. Its suitable for wet and dry hair!.. The way that it is designed , you must be thinking" how the heck does one hold and get a good grip while brushing the hair?!' well it is designed especially for the comfort of your hands. I LOVE IT!

I got it on special for R129 on takealot.com! you can too while the special is still on just click here 







Second on my list is the Beauty Blender!

Pricey yet affective! This blender is specially designed for blending your make-up . I adore it! When I use foundation it leaves me with the most flawless and natural finish.It looks like a teardrop . The bottom part is used to blend larger areas like your cheeks where as the pointy part is use to blend smaller areas such as under your eyes , your upper lip etc.

How to use:
make the sponge damp with water ( squeeze out all the water)
apply the makeup on your face
blend with a patting motion around your face
wash the sponge after use

Now as I promised you guys on facebook I have found a dupe! How much is the original ? R300! how much is the dupe ? R30 ! whats the difference between the two? I have found that the original expands just a little compare to the dupe when you make it damp but that doesn't make much of a difference!

please please go buy one for yourself , you wont regret it I promise!

The dupe can be purchased from checkers under the name "beauty sponge" where as the original, I purchased it from a lady called Aadilah let me know if you want her bbm pin.



well that's it for my beauty must-haves for this month!

lots of hugs , smiles and kisses

I start of by washing my hair with the shampoo once I rinse it off I apply the conditioner and put a shower cap over my head and let hot water hit the cap so that the conditioner really gets into my hair and does the job.  When im done washing and rinsing  my hair I brush out my hair starting from the bottom and working my way up. I then apply the john frieda products to my damp hair . If im styling I would put the tresemme blow dry lotion to my damp hair aswell and when im done I would get it with the Kair Serum.

Free Skin-Saving Products You Can Totally Find At Home

Hi Beauties

No need to splurge on tons of fancy masks or acne treatments to get glowing to return from winter break glowing! Chances are, there are a bunch of secret beauty ingredients hiding in your kitchen that you can use to brighten up your skin and banish blemishes—for free. Beauty reveals 5 products you can probably find in the kitchen cabinets that you can use to get perfect skin. 


1. Green Tea and Honey: To make a super-calming, mega-hydrating face mask, all you need is one green tea bag and some honey! Run the tea bag under warm water, snip the top off and empty the loose tea into a bowl. Mix it with a tablespoon of honey to create a paste, then slather it on your skin and let it sit for about 15 minutes. It's a great way to moisturize your skin and make it glow!

2. White Tea: This stuff is packed with antioxidants, so drinking two cups a day really keeps your skin healthy! White teas tend to be sweeter than other flavors, so you don't need to add any extra sugar, so it's a great substitute for sugary hot chocolate!

3. Apple Cider Vinegar: Dilute a few tablespoons of this ingredient that your mom probably has somewhere around the kitchen with just a little bit of water; then use a cotton pad to wipe it across your face for a DIY acne-fighting toner. Vinegar helps kill bacteria, which makes it an awesome acne-fighter!

4. Baking Soda: For an extra boost of exfoliation, mix a little pinch of baking soda in with your normal cleanser about once a week. It will gently scrub away dead skin cells that can make your face look dull and tired!

Top 10 shaving tips

Hi beauties<3

with days of preparing I finally come down to do this blog post for you guys. My top 10 ways to get a better shave .

Now Shaving first became popular during World War II when nylon stockings were in short supply and bare legs became a trend that has yet to cease.

Today, women are increasingly turning to waxing and some are trying laser hair removal . However , shaving remains the most inexpensive. so with out further do lets get started:P

1. Wet , moist skin is the most recommended to shave with as shaving with dry skin can leads to cuts and other disasters.

2. it is  preferable to shave with a shave cream . This can be purchased almost everywhere and a lot of brands sell these eg nivea , bic and soo much more!but honestly speaking , I just use my liquid body wash to shave it as I feel it provides the exact same results and at a much cheaper cost.

3.Always change  razors or cartridges on a regular basis; a dull blade can lead to nicks. Also, it's best not to borrow your guy's razor. His hair is coarser and will dull a blade. It's actually best to never use another person's razor because there is a chance you could get Hepatitis C from fresh blood on a razor. It's unlikely, but possible


4.It is recommended to exfoliate your skin before shaving , as this get rid of your dead cells which could clog up your razor .There are several ways to exfoliate. You can use exfoliating gloves or a cloth in the shower or dry brush before you shower (never get a wooden brush wet, it will mildew fast)

5.Since your leg hairs grow down, you'll want to start at your ankles and shave up. For your underarms, you'll need to shave in every direction since the hair there grows in at many different angles.

6.When finished shaving, apply oil or moisturizer. The skin on your legs has few oil glands and has a tendency for dryness. I normally applying Vaseline to my legs as it is my favourite moisturizer. I also tend to use baby oil or coconut oil.

7.try to avoid/get rid of ingrown hairs by exfoliating daily

8.It is much easier to shave while you in a bath tub rather then in a shower

9.You are going to have to experiment with razors until you find the perfect one for you. Ask your friends for recommendations and look for a razor with lubricated strips, pivoting heads and spring-mounted multiple blades. I've sampled several types and varieties and was amazed at how different each feels. My favorite? The Gillette Venus razor and the BIC for a throw-away

10.Consider opting for waxing, at least on your bikini line and lower legs saving the razor for your underarms and upper legs. You'll find that if you have coarser hair, in time it won't grow back as fast

take care beautiful people

Choose an eyebrow shape that is most suitable for your face shape!

A good beauty routine and awesome make up skills will show on your face. But there is one thing that can spoil all your efforts – a badly/wrongly shaped eyebrows. I say through experience that no matter how much your skin glows or how professionally you apply your make up , the ‘something’s -wrong’ feeling stays if your eyebrows aren’t done correctly.. I can safely bet at one point or the other we have faced the horror of having our brows spoilt, that too by professionals. HORRID isn’t it?? The whole pain of waiting for it grow back again, rubbing in litres of castor oil so that they grow faster and what not. I had mine totally messed before my cousin’s wedding and it was a nightmare, living through those 2-3 weeks. Anyway we save that cribbing for later on  .So the point of saying so much is that a well defined eyebrow adds the ‘chaar chand’ to your looks, it is something that makes you look better, instantly. It is important that we our eyebrow shape is in accordance with our face shape. There is nothing called as a perfect face shape, it is all about how you make it look perfect. And eyebrows have a major role to play here. It is possible to balance out face shapes by shaping the eyebrow correctly. For instance, a long face looks shorter with flat brows and longer with arched brows. Just see what difference eyebrows, make to the face, makeup and hairstyle remaining constant.


So let’s get started.

Eyebrow Shapes

Basic Face Shapes

The shape of one’s eyebrow is totally a personal choice, but there are some basics which will help if kept in mind. Let’s find the correct eyebrow shape according to face shape.

Oval Face Shape

This is considered to be the one best face shapes to have. This shape doesn’t need much attention. Any shape suits well on the person with oval face cut but curved eyebrows look exceptional. A soft angled eyebrow is what suits this face best. Usually most of the hair styles also look good on such people. Also a soft angled eyebrow is the most common eyebrow shape. Think – Jennifer Aniston

Round Face Shape

The goal is to make a round face appear less round by making the face look longer. A high arched eyebrow gives an up down look and elongates the face. People with a round face should stay away from rounded eyebrows, this face the face look more round. If one is not comfortable with highly arched brows, one can also opt for a soft angled eyebrow (similar to oval face).That will also serve the purpose to some extent. Think – Drew Barrymore

Long Face Shape

The aim is to make long face appear shorter .This is done by a flat eyebrow, as opposed to an arched brow. Flat eyebrow will draw attention away from the length of your face and add a bit of width to it instead. It stops the gaze going up and down thus making the face shorter in comparison. An arched brow is a no-no for a long face; it just makes the face look abysmally long. Keep the arch low as it helps in giving an illusion of more width to the face. The style is similar to one used in the low forehead case. Think – Sarah Jessica Parker

Square Face Shape

The most striking feature of this type of face is the strong jaw line. Forehead, cheeks and jawline will both be equal in width and the jawline will be squared. You will want to stick with a brow shape that balances out your jawline. The aim is to soften the jaw line. An angled eyebrow with sharp peak balances the face. Curved brows also work but an angled eyebrow evens out the face. Make sure that the arch of your brow is directly above the square of the jaw. Brows should be on the thinner side to soften the appearance of the face.  Think – Marilyn Monroe

Heart Face Shape

The aim is to soften the striking curves of the face with rounded eyebrows. So that the face looks like a typical heart, with rounded tops and pointy bottom. Rounded brows give a soft feminine look where as sharp curves further angle the face. Best choice for heart shape is a rounded eyebrow with very soft arches. The arch may be high or low depending on whether it is a short heart shaped face or a long heart shaped face. Try to keep brow width natural but not too bushy or too thin. Think – Scarlett Johansson.

Diamond Face Shape

This kind of face is widest at around the cheek bones. The aim is to soften and balance out the face. A curved eyebrow solves this purpose, it makes the widest part subtle and the arch elongates the face so that it looks balanced and not strikingly angular. Choose a curved brow to soften your angular face or keep emphasis on the center arch of the brow to draw away from the width of your face. Think – Rihanna.
As this article is on eyebrows, I would like to share certain other tips about eyebrows-

• Dry eyebrows cause eyebrow hair fall .It is good to always keep them moisturized.
• Massaging in castor oil to the eyebrows helps in thicker growth and darker brows.
• Ginger juice if applied on eyebrows daily helps in arresting eyebrow hair fall.
• It is good the brush eyebrow daily with an eyebrow brush, this increases blood circulation round the area. If you don’t have a brush, lightly massage with finger tips.
• Avoid tweezing at home; it is best left to professionals.
• If you have to shape it yourself, stand far away from the mirror. Looking in too closely will cause you to lose symmetry

How to do a fishtail plait: Step by step fishtail

1.Divide your hair into a side parting and take the whole length of your hair over to one side.
 

2.Begin by splitting the hair into two sections.
 

3.Take a small piece of hair from the outside of one of the two main sections and bring it to the inside of the opposite section.
 

4.Then take a small piece of hair from the outside of the other section and bring it to the inside of the opposite section, then pull tight.
 

5.Keep taking small pieces from each side into the inside of each section to develop the inverted braided pattern.
 

6.Keep going until you reach the end and finish by tying the hair with a clear elastic band.
 

7.Fishtail braids look best with a slept-in look so tease the braid by pulling out some strands for a more textured look.
