Oooh! I’ve seen that my favourite (let’s be ho Oooh! I’ve seen that my favourite (let’s be honest, my only) self-tan brand has a few new goodies for this summer.

I’ve had these two fragrances from Berdoues on r I’ve had these two fragrances from Berdoues on repeat for the last few weeks. The Collection Grand Crus is basically a travel journal of scents, each inspired by their namesake. These two are my favourites; Arz El-Rab is a spicy, woody scent that is inspired by the cedar forest of Lebanon. Arz el-Rab means ‘Cedars of God’. The scent is finished with notes of ginger and iris to instantly transport you to the Levant. Assam of India is a nod to the rich Indian tradition of tea growing and brewing. Black Assam tea notes are combined with lemon and sandalwood in this fresh, warming scent. Maison Berdoues fragrances are available online from Foschini for Beauty and from selected Foschini stores nationwide for R1595 each for 100ml EDP. #gifted

I love my Davines haircare, but sometimes I just w I love my Davines haircare, but sometimes I just want to throw on a huge dollop of nourishing hair mask and wallow in it for a while. I know you’re only meant to use a tiny amount, blah, blah, blah, but I love loading them on. So, instead of wasting premium products, I opt for more affordable formulas to indulge in. My latest discovery is the Moroccan Argan Oil Intense Conditioning Mask from Two Oceans. The thick, creamy formula delivers the level of nourishment I need and at just R72 for 500ml, I never feel bad about using ‘too much’ (if there is such a thing?). You’ll find the brand on Takealot. #gifted
Not quite an empty yet, but I’m almost finished Not quite an empty yet, but I’m almost finished my bottle of this dual-phase serum from Dermalogica. Housed in sleek purple packaging, the Dermalogica Phyto Nature Firming Serum (R2559) tackles various signs of aging in one bottle. The firming phase reinforces the skin thanks to Sapphire-bound biomimetic peptides that help to counter visible signs of skin ageing accelerated by external factors. The lifting phase is where the real magic happens by utilising Phyto-Nature technology, that harnesses potent, plant-derived bio-extracts to visibly tighten skin. Amazonian Camu Camu helps prolong radiance while next-generation Hyaluronic Acid delivers a filler effect. Antioxidant Moroccan Rockrose Extract and Madagascar Green Coffee Bean visibly revitalize skin and help decrease the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. #gifted

This Heritage Day 🇿🇦 I wanted to give a shou This Heritage Day 🇿🇦 I wanted to give a shout-out to veteran local ‘green’ brand, Earthsap. I’ve used their products on and off or years, and they were one of the first widely available local brands to focus on using fewer synthetic ingredients in their products. They recently sent me their Lavender & Juniper Berry Foam Bath (R70) and Pine Forest Body Wash (R95). Now, I usually consume my juniper berries distilled, in a tall glass, with tonic, so having it in skincare was a new take. I don’t bath very often, and because my daughter’s skin reacts to lavender, I’ve been using this as a hand wash. It works very well, as it has great foaming properties (even for a more natural formula). The Pine Forest won’t be to everyone’s taste because the scent is quite specific, but I love its fresh notes. Both clean the skin without drying it out. If you’re looking for an affordable, more ‘natural’ brand, you won’t go wrong with Earthsap. #gifted

This insane weather is confusing everyone's skin. This insane weather is confusing everyone's skin. I'm having to apply body cream twice as often. I recently discovered a budget friendly, local gem in the form of the Body Care from Africa African Hemp Seed Body Lotion. It's just R60 for 500ml!
