African Extracts Purifying Range Review

African Extracts | Cleanse, Tone & Moisturise
Happy Valentines Day, my wish for you is nothing by a healthy looking skin!!!

If you have been following the blog & me on snapchat (snapchat - zanelemondi) then you will know that the skincare products I use on the daily to especially cleanse, tone and moisturize with are the African Extracts products.

Last year I won a year supply of their products and I have given away most of the products to family and friends I have also saved some for a huge giveaway I'm planning later this year, I'm just waiting for the products to accumulate and all *wink*.

Today I just thought that I should give you a review because I have been using African Extracts Purifying Range for a while now.

Face Wash:
African Extracts says the following "cleans deep down to the pores for problem free skin. Enriched with Rooibos and Baobab extract, which are renowned for their soothing and calming properties and skin clearing benefits. Spot control face wash leaves skin feeling refreshed and invigorated".

I just wet my face first, apply a very small amount cause a lil goes a long way. I like that the facewash is dry skin friendly as it does not leave my skin feeling dry and looking ashy.

Toner:
African Extracts say that the toner removes impurities and tightens pores.

My very first experience on using a toner back in high school was very traumatic, the toner was alcohol based and it cracked my face to the core and ever since then I wasn't toning that much. Since the African Extracts Toner is water based I was like let me give it a try, and I have been using it daily ever since because yet again the product does not leave my face feeling dehydrated, but it leaves it feeling clean.

Moisturizer:
African Extracts says that the moisturizer is "easily absorbed, non-greasy moisturizer works in two ways to reduce shine and help prevent blemishes".

Also I love using this moisturiser as it adds moisture to my face without making it feel greasy, but the only down fall here is has no SPF such a bummer.

My verdict:
I do like that the African Extracts Purifying Range is affordable and dry skin girl friendly. It is also good to know that the range is paraben free and that they don't test on animals.

P.S. Skincare is different for everyone and hey if you just use a facewash and moisturizer then you are good to go - good for you sister. On my side I just feel like the more the better, bring that serum, the spot control, bring that under-eye cream, that scrub, etc....

Hope you have enjoyed my review!!!

Review | African Extracts 3-1 Wash, Scrub & Mask

Pore-Clearing Scrub – R64.95
I have been blogging a lot lately which I love and I hope to keep the momentum going since Spring is coming in a few days time.

Today I thought that I should share with you how the African Extract 3-1 Wash, Scrub & Mask is treating me so far. I actually bought the mask at Clicks Jabulani Mall before it was sent to me
back in July beacase I wanted to try it, plus it seemed affordable.

The container is tube like which means you will be able to use all of the product as it also allows for squeezing. On your first squeeze no contents come off as it has a protective seal in it (to keep
the germs away) which is great, just rememeber to remove it *lol*

The African Extract 3-1 Wash, Scrub & Mask has a thick-white consistency, the
thickness in the consistency helps with how much of the product you can use on each application.
If you are now more in-tune on what you cleanse your face with like me, the product
contains the following ingrediatent, Bio-active Rooibos extract, baobab, soybean oil, shea butter and other plant extracts.

African Extract claims that the product eliminates excess oil, unclogs pores and events skin tones. When I first used it it tingled a bit but I guesss it was theproduct working as I hadn't used any 3-in-1's in a while. Although the product eliminates excess oil it is not drying at all to the skin (dry skin problems). If you are looking for a 3-in-1 Wash, Scrub & Mask product that is also affordable this product is for you.

Quick tip: To use as wash or scrub massage onto wet face and rinse.
                 To use as mask, apply to face avoiding eye area, leave to dry for three
                 and rinse.

My Entry | African Extracts #PurifyOurWorld Competition


Hey guys this is my entry for the African Extracts #PurifyOurWorld competition.

The winner gets to win R10 000 for the Charity of their choice and a years worth of African Extracts Purifying range.



One can enter the competition by simply going to http://www.africanextracts.com  

See my entry HERE https://youtu.be/-qczoSRHFEY


I purify my world by volunteering at my locally based charity called Thembelenkosini Care Givers (Soweto), which is a block away from where I stay. 


The charity works mostly as an after school programme for primary school kids, other than them going home to an empty house (because most parents are still at work from 1pm till 6pm), the kids get to interact with their peers, do some homework, have an afternoon light meal and then play. 


Every now and then then the kids get to be treated with fun and games by going to the local zoo's and exploring Gauteng and hopefully the rest of Africa soon. 



P.S. The competition is open to all residents in South Africa and runs from 9 June 2016 to 30 August 2016.
