I was wondering whether I should write this review. I promised myself I would be honest on the blog, but I also do not want to write a negative review. I did however hate this product.
It is a moisturiser and you can read the marketing about it here.
It is an incredibly thick, lumpy butter. I read now that you are supposed to warm it in your hands to make it more spreadable. This is probably not a bad idea, since this butter is so thick. It is thick, does not penetrate your skin and forms a thick, yucky layer on top. In addition to that, it tingled when applied. Quick, and not really badly, but I would prefer not to have this stinging. It is very thick and would probably moisturise well if you had very dry skin, which I do not have. And to be honest, my skin did feel quite soft in the morning after using it the night before. But I hated it and would not keep using it.

I have recently tried to review some really nice, special, expensive shampoos. I found it hard to review a shampoo, mostly because I think the feel of your hair is largely determined by the conditioner you use and not so much the shampoo.
And then I thought I should compare the shampoo to my simple good enough shampoo.
This is my favourite supermarket/Dischem/buy anywhere kind of shampoo.
I use Sunsilk and use the one for coloured hair. I really like it much more than other shampoos in the same price range. It is cheap and lasts a long time. I sometimes use the accompanying conditioner, but also use the conditioner that comes with my hair colour products. I think a good conditioner is so much more important than a good shampoo.
I have decided that expensive shampoos I review has to make my hair feel better than Sunsilk before I will get excited.

I am a conservative dresser. Nail art is a bit outside of my comfort level, on various fronts. For one it takes too long and is too difficult for me to manage. And I am also not sure I am keen on conveying quite such a bold statement.
I saw this tutorial and gave it a try.

Here is my attempt. It does not look so great, the nail polish was a bit thick and the application was difficult. The technique was easy enough that I am willing to try again.
Here are some images for inspiration.
A lot of these inspired me to get some white nail polish.
