Today I have a review for you on the new
Revlon Ultra HD Lip Mousse Hyper Matte.
The claim:
Revlon claims that the Ultra HD Lip Mousse Hyper Matte is a velvety
matte high definition colour with a creamy whipped mousse texture for a
lightweight, moisturizing feel.
They say the formula is ultra-matte without drying, flaking or has that
uncomfortable feel.
The product:
If you are familiar with the Ultra HD Lips from Revlon then you
will love the Hyper Mattes. I will be honest here and say I never
tried the Metallics from their range (because I'm not a huge metallics fan)
however the Hyper Mattes I am certain that I will enjoy them.
I also have noticed that they made some changes to their applicator,
application is also better however they did not have to change it because it was okay
the way it was.

| Shades: Crimson Sky, Dusty Rose, Red Hot, Spice, Death Valley, 100 Degrees Rocky Plum, Sunset |
My thoughts:
There is just something about Revlon's Ultra HD Lips, the smell
reminds me of vanilla Ice Cream and anything that smell's like that
is a great on my books. The claim is true that the lippies are non drying
but have that mousse-ish feel.
On the first swatch some shades do come of vivid (however Revlon does mention that
they are vivid) for me I think a build-able vivid shades.
My verdict:
Revlon has created 8 shades for this collection, because I'm
a collection person I would say get everything. If I would leave out
one shade I would say Dusty Rose however my sister will disagree with me
on this one as she likes the shade.
Overall it's a great collection, great job Revlon

On today's post I teamed up with my sister for a
first impression/review of the YardleyxBonnie collaboration.
I get excited when brands collaborate with local melanin queens
because I know that the products are made with us SA beauty
lovers in mind.
A word from Yardley:

most sought after celebrity to create a range that’s made to express your uniqueness.
Yardley Colour brings you the essence of Bonnie’s effortless elegance in

I was truly elated at the thought of collaborating with such a credible brand,
it is truly a match made in heaven, Yardley’s Brand characteristics truly complement mine in that
it is a classic, trusted brand whose authenticity has stood the test of time.

MY THOUGHTS
Adding that Melanin shade
to the Even Complexion and Stayfast foundations because
an expanding shade range to my firm favourites is always great.
The collection could have maybe included an eyeshadow palette? maybe that
would be in round 2 who know (".), Overall I'm happy with the collection
and congratulations once again Bonnie this range is awesome.

Cindy here (Zanele's Older sister) last month we received a Royal Baking Powder PR package
containing some baking powder and a recipe book.
Zanele is not much of a cooker nor a baker LOL as I am.
Being a big sister that I am who loves baking and cooking,I loved that the
PR package came with a recipe book so it was game on.
Challenge accepted.

Affordable convenient everyday kasi yet delicious, easy to make food that is my jam.
What I also love about this recipe book is that any one can learn to bake from scratch,
that baking is not complicated or expensive.

As long as you know how to measure correctly your baking can come out
perfect and yummy.

On today's post I got to attempt a CINNAMON AND SUGAR DOUGHNUTS recipe,
with the twist as being the foodie that I am.

MY THOUGHTS
I substituted the Cinnamon with Mixed Spice as it is delicious with baking and also has Cinnamon.
Baking doughnuts for the first time was very easy and very quick.
(It's like cooking amagwinya (fat cakes) without the wait time).

You just have to make sure that your oil is hot enough, and no kids in the kitchen (please).
Can't wait to bake other cakes on the recipe book,
as most of the cakes contain everyday ingredients that are already in the kitchen cupboard.

I like that I don't have to worry about going out to buy some extra ingredients and break the bank.
I so enjoyed making this feature for the blog,
I think I might make this a regular thing.
