January 2017 In Review


Wow January went by so fast, and it being my birthday month, 
I really did enjoy every last bit of it. 
I won't lie though the month of January can also be such a drag... cause everyone is coming from 
Decembers silly season and they just wanna take things really slow.

I have been blogging for a while now and I have noticed that when I blog on intervals (e.g. Tuesday & Thursday) I tend to get lazy and I find myself not posting any content which happened second week January were only one post went up that week, gosh I was so irritated. 
So I psych'd myself up to post daily of which I prefer. 
I won't lie and say its easy, but someone has gotta do it.

I really do enjoy blogging and I think that I will now make it full time. 
I have a lot planned for February including a few surprises, so make sure you follow the blog. 

Side note: Finally reached 100 000 views and now my new blogs domain is
http://www.aroundsoweto.com the new blog name will make sense as the year goes by
plus I felt like inoutandaroundsoweto.co.za was such a long name for a domain. 

Thank you so much for the continued support. 

See you soon

Foundation Review | Essence All About Matt Foundation Review

Essence All About Matt Foundation shade 50 Caramel and 60 Mahogony
 It’s Friday already, what a week thank you kindly once again for the lovely birthday messages, I really do appreciate it. 
Mwah!!!!

I really thought that I had done a review on the Essence All About Matt Foundation hey, because this is my second bottle (tube) and I will be repurchasing another soon.
Here is why.

The claim:
Essence claims that the foundation is mattifying, oil-free gives a flawless and radiant finish, covers imperfections without clogging the pores. Essence also says that the formulation is long-lasing and moisturizing.

The product:
The foundation comes in a white tube and has a red lid, the foundation shade is also visible on the bottle my foundation shade is Caramel, and I use Mahogany to contour. The foundation has a slightly runny constancy and does not have a strong over powering smell

 My experience:
I first got the Essence All About Matt Foundation as part of a PR package from Essence last year. Since it claimed to be mattifying I was really concerned because I have dry skin and all things matte end up ashy and cakey. So when I tried the foundation I was really surprised with the finish that it gave me. The foundation has a really good medium to full coverage and for a drugstore foundation I’m really impressed. The foundation does what it claims in the bottle and that is long-lasting and moisturizing, for a foundation that is oil-free I wonder how it achieves that.

My verdict:
The foundation is affordable, lasts a long time I just wish that it can stop transferring everywhere but with a setting spray it lasts. Great job on this one Essence!!! just bring us more shades on this range okay.
