Urban Decay: Prep, Prime, Set

Last year I stopped attending events for a while, because I just had too much on my plate. When I received an invite from Urban Decay to attend their Prep, Prime and Set launch - I decided that it would be the perfect event to get back out there. And with an incredible view of the ocean, delicious snacks and exciting products to test - I definitely made the right choice. All of the above photos were taken by the talented Tegan Smith Photography. At this event, Urban Decay introduced to us their new innovative complexion products. Being a Hermoine Granger, I wanted to write a thesis about all the benefits, ingredients, textures, bottle size, font type, weight and density of these products. But I...

Introducing MAC Shadescents

by Anja Wintour
Beauty, Grammar
If you've been following my blog for a while now, you're probably familiar with the fact that I have a genuine lipstick addiction. In my previous article about Things That Make Me Happy, I mention how I feel true euphoria when I apply a new lipstick for the first time. It's also no secret that I am a super MAC fan. Two of my absolute favourite shades are Heroine and Candy Yum Yum. The one is quite badass, while the other one speaks to my inner Barbie. (She still exists.) When I first caught wind of the MAC Shadescents range, I was very excited but also a bit apprehensive to give it a try. I mean, I love these lipsticks, but...

Aromatics in Black Or White

When I think about Aromatics, I think about watching my mom get ready for work and the smell of her hugs. It used to be her favourite perfume back in the day, and so by association - I've come to think of it as a scent for a mature woman. But then Clinique sent me the new Aromatics In White and Aromatics In Black, and I was like: YOH! I like to judge a book by its cover, so I was firstly impressed by the bottle design which is beautifully simplistic and stylish. Then, when I opened the perfumes - I was happy to find that even though they're very different to each other, they're both perfect for a woman of any age. So let's...

Goldwell Anti-Brass Range Review

by Anja Wintour
Beauty, Blog, Grammar
I’m not usually big on surprises. I like knowing what’s up and being able to plan for it. So you’d think that I’d dislike the Secret Box, a box that contains a secret selection of premium products at a discount rate. But you see, as much as I dislike surprises, I love bargains more. So the Secret Box, which is distributed by Retail Box, is actually right up my alley. The latest @RetailBoxSA Secret Box just arrived 😻 Keep an eye on their Insta to see when you can purchase yours! pic.twitter.com/ocUuSxhqbt — Anja van der Spuy (@AnjaWintour) September 14, 2016 This month’s Secret Box contained a full-sized Goldwell Dual Sense Anti-Brass shampoo and conditioner, and a box of Invisibobbles. All three of...

Shine with champagne coloured hair

by Anja Wintour
Beauty, Blog, Grammar
I am unapologetic about loving a little luxury. For instance, if I want to wear perfume to bed – I do it, no questions asked. And I truly believe that I don’t need a special occasion to drink champagne, I’ve been known to pop a bottle purely because I felt like it. So it comes as no surprise that my heart was stolen by the Champagne Hair Colour Trend. Say what now? Champagne hair? Yes, it’s a thing! Champagne coloured hair is pretty much dark blonde’s shiny sister. Its gold tones will make you look and feel like the queen that your are! Source This colour works well with ombré, as the lighter ends blend into the gold tones effortlessly.  Source This colour is incredibly...
