Ordering Cosmetics from America

I ordered some lip balms from America a week and a half ago and when I got home today I found a parcel in my letter box! (Yes u read rite a week and a half) I am so impressed that it came so quick and right to my door that I just want to log online and order more!


Manicure Monday



Essence - Date under the moonlight 

No matter how hard I tried I just can't get this color to truly show in the pics. But it's a gorgeous gun metal gray with blue under tones 

In love & lipgloss

Dior Addict Lip Glow - Review

I feel like the minute I post this I am going to have hordes of devoted fans banging down my door with pitch forks and torches ready to hang me in my sleep and burn my body! But I am still going to say it! I don't get the craze about this lip balm!!




The scientific approach:
With its Color Reviver technology, Dior Addict Lip Glow reacts directly with the unique chemistry of each woman's lips before releasing its color ingreadient. Lips seem revived from within, amazingly fresh, full and radiant. Its formula, enriched with wild mango and luffa cylindrica, cushions lips in comfort. Moisturizes, smoothes and softens your lips to become more beautiful day after day. It blends seamlessly with the lips for a makeup result that stays intact all day.


What its supposed to do it bring out the natural color of your lips as well as moisturize it. Don't get me wrong it is an amazing lip balm, left my lips feeling soft and moisturized. It has an amazing smell, and unfortunately only left my lips slightly stained. Maybe I don't have enough natural coloring for it to bring out. But that being said I still found it to be just that a lip balm! Only difference is it is a very expensive lip balm.


It retails for R389 and you can get it at most dior counters.

In Love and Lipgloss
