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

Yardley Defy Time Foundation Review /// Shade Caramel |
It's Friday we made it, today I just thought that I should do my first foundation review of 2017 I hope that you enjoy it. I bought the Yardley Defy Time Foundation just when January began because this year I'm on a quest of trying new things so why waste time.
Yardley claims that the foundation has skincare benefits that helps fight the signs of ageing.
The foundation has idealife for a firmer younger, radiant looking appearance. Contains SPF 20 to protect against the harmful and ageing effects of UV rays and that the foundation is also medium coverage.
The Yardley Defy Time Foundation comes in a glass bottle that that has a pump and which makes it easier for one to control how much product they would like to use. I like that drugstore products are making pumps for their products nowadays, atleast our endless complaints are being heard.
The foundation claims to be medium in coverage which I agree but I'm happy that it is also build-able, because I prefer full coverage foundations. Being a medium coverage foundation on my first application I thought that the coverage would be mediocre but to my surprise
the coverage is really good.

Zanele Mondi /// Yardley Defy Time Foundation /// Shade Caramel Try On |
The foundation is water based which makes for a dewy type of a finish which is also amazing for my dry skin, cause matte foundations tend to be cakey when I don't use a primer that is oil based.
On my first application I used a foundation brush and I thought nah this foundation will not be okay hey as it was not blending well, washed my face sat down for like an hour then tried the foundation again this time using a damp beauty sponge to blend it in and the results where just amazing, just have a look at the finish product (picture above) """" da boom dot com"""" do people still say that!!!
Overall I'm happy with the foundation because it gives me a dewy finish which is perfect for that summer glow, and I'm hoping that it will still be good in winter aswell.

New In | Yardley Foundation, Eyeshadow Palette |
So the "NEW IN" features here on the blog are like mini hauls cause I never really do hauls.
About two weeks ago I bought the Yardley foundation, eyeshadow palette and nail-polishes because this year I just want to step-out of my comfort zone and try new products and products that I really are foundations the higher the coverage the better.
To be honest though my local mall which is Jabulani Mall in Soweto does not carry a lot of variety in make up products, let me tell you quickly what their Edgars has Yardley, Revlon, an old selection of Rimmel products, Black Opel products that need updating aswell, and their in-house Design brand, that's it LOL I think that it's time I can malls and start going to Maponya Mall now.
I swatched and played around with the products and I will share my final look and review on Friday.
