New In | Justine A-Firm & Balance
This is my first official review for Justine on the blog,
welcome Justine (I use their tissue oil all the time I don't know why I haven't reviewed it yet).
Avon/Justine sent me tons of products so I will be posting a lot about
them over the next few weeks. On Tuesday I did the Avon Glow | Bronzing Pearls post and I'm sharing with you skincare products from Justine that I'm currently testig out.
When I test out skincare products I love testing the whole range maybe it's
just me or something but I believe that dermatologist don't spend hours
developing a range and the be like hey this Moisturizer will work well
with that brands Serum and that other brands Face Wash, correct me if I'm wrong here.

Justine recently launched their A-Firm Anti-aging Cleanser and Toning Gel which I'm
currently testing out. I have dry skin and without giving too much information
away (on the products) I can say that it is dry skin friendly. Also new to Justine is their
Balancing Spray Toner, which works well with my Balancing Day Cream and Night Cream which I have been using for a while.

Review | Ponds Age Miracle BB Cream
 |
| Ponds Age Miracle BB - R189 /// SHOP : HERE |
I have been testing out the *Ponds Age Miracle BB cream for a while now
and I just thought that it is time for me to review it.
Here is what Ponds claims about the product.
Instant natural coverage,
Non-pore clogging,
Light, non-oily texture,
Reduces dark marks,
Evens skin tone,
Protects from UVA and UVB rays (SPF30++).
The Ponds BB cream comes in two types now, the Flaws Radiance (pink) and the Age Miracle (red).
When I shop I tend to go for more anti-aging products these days

(*one can never start too early with fighting aging LOL*).
The BB cream comes in two shades only beige (fair to medium skin tones) and chocolate (medium deep to dark tones). The shade is not much of an issue as it oxidizes on the skin, it might look dark now on my finger but some how once applied it actually blends well on my face (post on how it looks like on my face coming soon).
The BB has SPF30 which is great for me, cause I tend to go for skincare products with a lot of SPF.
When I do apply the BB Cream though I do color correct before (under eyes and chin area as they are darker) so that the product can work to it's max. It is really light on the skin and it applies really well. I just think that BB creams are more focused on skincare and not coverage however this BB Cream is actually great on both areas.
Overall I'm impressed I actually do recommend this one for this Spring/Summer and all year round.

Let's Glow | Avon Glow Bronzing Pearls
 |
| Avon Glow Bronzing Pearls /// R160.00 /// SHOP HERE /// Avon.co.za |
Sorry for the late upload today, I'm still sick and I needed to go get checked up today.
Anyone who says that they have never seen the Avon Bronzing Pearls before are just lying!!!
Anywho before I go on a rent lets break this down, what is brozing? who gets to bronze and why?
Bronzers usually come in two forms liquid and powder.
Liquid Bronzers usually work well for dry/combination skins, while Powders work well for oily/normal skins.
Bronzing to me is adding that extra finishing touch to your daily make-up routine without having to be heavily highlighted. It is also important for one to choose the correct shade for their skin tone, one or two shades darker is what I would suggest.
The *Avon Glow Bronzing pearls are a perfect way for one to add the warmness that finishing powders usually leave behind. I really can't flaw this bronzing powder hey as it has a good enough supply of shimmers and has great staying power.
I usually apply my bronzing powder in areas where I have contoured (a bit on the cheek, temples and neck area) using either a kabuki or a bronzer brush.
Overall I'm impressed!!!

Manicure Monday | Wild Weekend Update
My Friday began on a bad note as I was booked off sick by the doctor and it was one of those weekends were I had everything planned from doing my hair to
actually start filming for YouTube, but I was so sick and under heavy medication that
I found myself sleeping on the couch and watching TV.
I guess this post will be madly about what I watched on TV this weekend *sorry*.
Forever Young was on repeat the whole weekend from Season 1 up until Season 3, I must say that my boyfriend was happy because he has mad love for those three guys. The only critisism I have for that show is just before the break
they would play a snippied of whats coming after the break and after the break they would play exactly what the snipped showed *that irritated me*, als
they would show snippets of whats coming after the break while it's on upcoming shows * like really* I don't know who thought that idea was great???

I love that show, it is motivational, energetic and just full of life I can't wait for season four.
I got to catch up on some movies both National Treasures, SALT (wuuuuu Angelina Jolie enough said) LOL, CHEF and some local movieS on channel 161 but I forgot the names.
MasterChef The Professionals will always be my favorite, they are currently on group stages and the competition is still on. I only got to watch one episode of Isibaya I think the Monday episode, and I'm just irritated by it but will keep on watching for now.
Free TV catchup, Scandal oh my goodness Dintle is just full of drama isn't she, can't wait to see how that story unfolds,
Skeem Sam was also on another level. Generations who is that mad to poison their mother mara aih.
Reality wise I haven't yet watched Rob & China am I missing something, The show that I'm really into is WAGS gosh I love it.
Overall I had a great week at home, I just hate that I didn't film anything yet again.
Have a great week.
