​Every winter it's the same old story for me, I'm plagued with dry skin.. No matter what I do or don't do it's there like a curse.. On my face the targeted areas are on both sides of my nose, sides of my lips and just above my chin.. It intensifies as winter does.. I've tried everything but sandpaper which I'm quite tempted to use at the moment but...

​Winter is a whole other game changer when it comes to our skin and hair, and for naturals like myself, it means caring for your hair even more than in summer. And let me tell you its not easy. Winter brings with it colder weather, and its not easy, keeping your hand on your hair, and looking its utmost best. Not only is it cold getting out of bed,...

The empties have surely been racking up since I last posted a Buy or Bye post.My mother always thought I was insane when she saw the box that practically kept nothing, now that I think about it. But I can finally get to it and break it down for you beauties.For those of you who are new to the hoarder verse – empties refer to the products that I hav...

The Revlon Colorstay Full Cover Foundation wasn't lying with all of their claims for this foundation. It honestly stays in place all day and there's no caking or fading. It definitely dries down matte but also doesn't dry out your skin, so at the same time it's also moisturizing.  It applies seamlessly on your face - it basically glides o...

I recently got my hands on the new Dove Eventone anti-perspirant and of course had to put it to the test.This anti-perspirant smells oh so divine, it has a rose petal scent and it feels absolutely beautiful on the skin. Its moisturising, soft and really smooth and it dries down in a moment of seconds. That right there is the deal-breaker for me. Th...

​Setting your makeup for a powder, I feel, if always essential if you're hoping to dawn that look for a prolonged period of time.Now, when it comes to powders, we all have a preferred preference.Loose, compact, colour, translucent.My preference is a loose powder with a damp beauty sponge.Not only does it basically blending in the powder, allowing f...

The beauty industry has become very influential, and each year brands come out with their lines of products for skincare. Face masks and creams, eye creams, peelings, exfoliators, you name it. With so many different products, you can feel a bit overwhelmed and not know what to use. So here are some skincare rules you should always apply no matter w...

​Women in general are at best quite secretive when it comes to their beauty regimes. It still amazes me, how most women accept praise for their appearance, without ever actually divulging, all the effort they put into their appearances!!! For me personally, I admit, my skin and my hair are especially quite important to me. Like most women, I t...

Having often wondered about the benefits of Santoor soap and the claims of a somewhat cleansed, clear skin, one can only imagine my anticipation of testing this for review. My man got a mini sample bar, in his race pack recently and I quickly laid claim to the sample. The label indicating Sandal & Turmeric had me excited because history ha...

As an aspiring self taught MUA I have been going through a lot of trial and error(as to be expected I guess) and I have been finding beauty hacks which I find super fun. I had always used brow pencil until I discovered brow pomade and my brow routine has changed since. Brow pomade allows you create realist brows as you can apply usin...

​About two months ago I felt so discourage as I noticed my hair was breaking. I did everything right (that was what I thought), I washed, deep conditioned and did the L.O.C method. I felt like my hard work and effort is going to waste. I even start questioning if it's worth going through all of the trouble to be natural? So, I came across the About...

So I'm from Singapore and in my mid-thirties. I've never had perfect skin. I have enlarged pores, lots of blackheads, very oily and acne-prone skin, hyperpigmentation, and I get moles easily. My forehead is large (think Tyra Banks) and I've gone through lots of periods in my life where my forehead erupted into crazy acne and I felt terrible about s...

​So since I've done the big chop in 2018 I can honestly say that my hair is more healthier and stronger. I have type 4C high porosity hair and to maintain my bushy hair haven't  been easy.  It has been 7 months and my hair feels great. I have been using the Aunt Jackie's products for the last 7 months and my hair loves this...

​I struggle with hair breakage and these are some of the products I use to prevent my hair from breaking. I use the Marc Anthony Rejuvenating 12 Second Miracle Shampoo and Conditioner to cleanse and moisturize my hair. I bought these two products because it contains biotin which promotes hair growth. After using this for a month, my ...

​Hello Beauts', let me start by giving you all a brief background on my skin's history.I have combination skin (which was confirmed through skin analysis) with pigmentation and blemish problems, I have only ever used two skincare products over long periods of time, from my teens into my late twenties, and that's when everything changed for me....
