By Nature’s Vitamin C & Turmeric range doesn’t have a day cream, so I tried By Nature Hydrating and Replenishing Daily Facial Moisturiser. Packed with Co-Enzyme Q-10 to combat daily environmental stressors; Essential Ceramides to restore and protect, and Hyaluronic Acid to plump and hydrate, it promises to help keep skin hydrated and smooth. Suitable…

Which cleanser, toner and moisturiser to use for your skin type
We are taught to cleanse our faces every night from a young age. In most cases, that’s where skincare advice ends. Finding the right cleanser, toner, and moisturiser to use is usually a process of trial and error. Sometimes certain products are just used because its what your Mom, Aunty, or sister used. Theres more…
White Spots on nails
Known medically as Leukonychia, (from the Greek words leuko (“white”) and onyx (“nail”), white spots on the nail/s are most commonly caused by a minor injury or trauma to the nail matrix, the base of the nail under the skin, where the nail is formed. If you’re not sure exactly where your nail matrix is, have a…

Bee Restored
A mini 15ml tub of Bee Restored Lavender Night Cream from The Sage Apothecary was the Day 21 gift in the 2019 Beautiful Surprises Advent Calendar. I wasn’t sure if this was a bee venom or a bee pollen product, as I couldn’t find an ingredients list on the little tub, so I had to…

Mia Belle Shampoo Bar
I purchased one of the Mia Belle Oil Balancing Shampoo Bars after having had a rather disappointing experience with Totally Balmy’s Shampoo Bar (click on the link to read my review). I’ve used solid shampoo bars for years now, and they do vary quite widely in size, texture, lather, etc. from brand to brand. Unfortunately,…
Essie Gel Couture Polish
I selected Essie Gel Couture in “Spiked With Style” (#360), an edgy deep blood red. The polish is bottled in a clear, twisted Essie branded glass bottle and the colour of the polish is visible through the glass, while the top coat is in an opaque white twisted bottle. There is no base coat with…
Why nails split, peel or crack
Cracked, splitting and peeling nails have many causes, from infections to the normal side effects of getting older. The most common reason for split or cracked nails is unfortunately something we have no control over. Ageing. As we get older, our fingernails naturally become thinner and more prone to cracking and splitting. This is most…
Garnier Nude Effect BB Cream
I bought a tube of Garnier Nude Effect BB Cream, even though I wasn’t really a huge fan of the last Garnier BB Cream I used, which was their Anti-Ageing BB Cream, back in July 2016. I found the Anti-Ageing one to be very greasy on my naturally oily skin, so I was very hesitant…
