Diamonds and Jewels

Skin-safe, self-adhesive face gems and jewels are all the rage in hot makeup looks this Spring. As a sparkling enhancement to your eyeshadow or statement lip, they simply add a much needed ‘wow factor’ to your look.

Glowing Skin

Ultimately, the path to glowing skin lies in a good skincare routine. Moisturising, cleansing and toning on a regular basis is so important!

But, if you do all of this and still want a stronger glow, there’s one guaranteed way to achieve a radiant complexion: highlight. A dab of shimmery highlighter on the cheekbones, nose, cupid’s bow and chin can bring your glowing skin to the next level.

Statement Lips

Statement lips are low-effort, but high-impact. This is what makes a statement lip so great, and why we are glad they’re coming back into fashion this Spring!

A deep red lip is a must-do for all makeup lovers this year. It’s dark, vibrant and edgy, a true statement lip! We do recommend a hot, blush pink lip too, as the perfect representation of all the lovely colours of Spring.

Without doubt, these are bright, matte lip looks that elevate the chicness of your style.

Peachy Blush

When you think of Spring, you’re likely thinking of fields of bright, gorgeous flowers.

Peachy blush is the dreamiest shade of blush to recreate that flowery goodness in your makeup look! It’s a colour that’s trending now for a reason, and many makeup lovers often find that it enhances the radiance of your complexion much more than the usual pink-toned blushes.

A brush of peachy blush over the nose and apples of our cheeks is something we do ourselves to create a bright, happy and pleasantly flushed appearance!

Bold Metallics

This Spring is about being bold, brilliant and authentic. Channel your boldest self with vibrant, metallic eyeshadow.

Gold, silver, chrome or copper; whatever shade you choose, bold metallic shadows can take a nude, subtle look to new heights.

With a firm application of dark mascara, bold metallics might just change your life!

How to care for your hair while you sleep

We sleep for an average of 8 hours a day and our hair can get caught up as we sleep. If your hair is natural (afro) like mine, you may need to pay a bit more attention to how you care for your hair as you sleep. Here are a few ways to protect your hair while sleeping:

Invest in a silk pillowcase

Investing in a silk pillowcase is one of the most simple ways to take care of your natural hair while sleeping. Silk is a gentle fabric that protects your hair from excessive damage and pulling while you toss and turn as you sleep. Silk pillowcases are also super comfy and they aid in a good night’s sleep, which is another good reason to invest in them. I have quite a few and I can’t imagine not sleeping on a silk pillowcase now.

Use a silk scarf and bonnet

Still on how amazing silk fabric is when it comes to hair care, invest in a couple of silk scarves and bonnets, and your hairline will thank you for it. Wrapping your hair in a silk scarf will keep it moisturised and protected as you sleep. Using a silk scarf, bonnet, and pillowcase at nighttime will do wonders for your hair.

Moisturise your hair before bedtime

It is important you moisturise your hair before you sleep. I usually moisturise my hair with Black Seed Oil and water mixture in a spray bottle just before I wrap it up in my silk scarf and bonnet. This keeps my hair soft and moisturised overnight.

Avoid tight protective styles

Tight protective styles damage hair, especially the hairline. It is best to ensure you avoid hairstyles that put excessive pressure on the hairline, especially when you sleep. Loose styles are best if you prefer not to sleep with your hair down. I prefer putting my hair in loose plaits and leaving them down but wrapped for bedtime.

I got this clay face mask off Amazon some weeks ago, and I have been using it twice a week since then. This skincare product is 100% Vegan with Avocado, Tea Tree, Sea Silt, and Green Tea. The face mask was formulated with a unique combination of 7 powerful superfoods: Avocado, Spinach, Blueberry, Spirulina, Tea Tree, Aloe Vera, and Calendula.
