#FOTD: The Brows

9:48 AM

I recently discovered the Mac eyebrow pen (cue shame for only recently paying attention to my brows) and it's honestly so helpful for filling in my patchy brows. I'm keen to get into waxing or threading my brows because I've heard that helps them grow in an organized manner and not all hodge podge like (more shame for not being into waxing or threading already). Excuse my spotty face (it's been breakout central lately) but wanted to show my fotd for driving my mom around town and getting some errands done.

My Week In Collages

8:52 PM

Whoa, talk about a busy week. First there were lectures, then two days in the frreeeeeezing 011 (Johannesburg to those not clued up on South African area codes) where I met some amazing people, coffee breaks with my girlies and then a test on Friday all after receiving the most amazing news of my life! Aren't you tired just reading that? I am after experiencing it...but it's definitely a good sort of tired!

Collage 1: My trusty #fotd featuring the usual suspects: Rimmel Lasting Finish Foundation, NYX blush in deep rose, Colours Liquid Liner and Lancôme Hypnose Doll Eyes Mascara. And to top it off a mirror shot (that grimace was because of the 10 degree weather!)

Collage 2: Some of those wonderful people I mentioned earlier! I have to say meeting them was like meeting my tribe! A bunch of hardworking and friendly law students (we're not snobs as rumour would have it) who made me feel right at home!

Collage 3: I made it home just in time to slip in two coffee and milkshake dates with my friendlies (we love our food and drink dates and recently discussed our inability to give them up inbetween being law students) and lemme tell you, I enjoyed both.

What have you been up to this week? Been as busy as bee like me? How do you handle it?

LANCOME Doll Eyes Mascara

8:55 AM

The Mascara isn't new. In fact I've used it quite a bit in my posts...and for that there is a reason! This mascara is fabbity-fab and it lifts the lashes without being chunky, clumpy or heavy. I have to be the most sensitive person ever when it comes to make up products (once I used a mascara that gave me a headache...er, weird right?) so finding Lancôme's Doll Eyes mascara? A plus! I'm not a particularly gifted person in the lash department but I think the Doll Eyes mascara does what it can with what little I've got and I approve of the results!

What's your favourite mascara?

#FOTD: Like A Kardashian

7:54 AM

Saw this pic of Kourtney Kardashian and it just reminded me of how much I love her signature red liplook. I had to give it a try!

Here's my 'Like a Kardashian' #FOTD featuring:
Make Up For Ever Bronzer/ Yardley Oatmeal Pressed Powder/ Lancôme Doll Eyes Mascara/ Essence Long Lasting Eye Pencil/ NYX Rose Blush/ Mac Red Lipstick

Liner on the bottom of the eye was definitely a new experience for me! I always feel like I'm gonna take an eye out or something with the pen but this time I went for it just to give it a go! I also did the hair up (some of you know it's usually down).

As you can see I used two bases and two liners. Honestly, the only explanation I can give is I love the mixed effect.

What do you think?

Hope everyone's having a great week!

Thanks to everyone who's stopped by and left a comment:)

Not THAT kinda working girl!

I had to attend a formal lunch last Friday and I was in full business wear (and loving it!). Here's a snap of my #fotd, a variation on my go to face. (And no, the glasses aren't for show...Life is actually kinda blurry without them!)
