John Frieda Luxurious Volume Blow Lotion Spray Root Booster.

I love to review products and give honest feedback. Today's product is the John Frieda Luxurious Volume Blow Lotion Spray Root Booster.

 

Before I tell you about my experience here's some information on the product. 

Transforms fine, flat hair into salon-calibre, natural looking volume. The Blow Dry Lotion Root Booster creates the perfect lift at the crown. Containing a root-lifting complex, this formula boosts fine hair right at the roots.

It is available in 125ml size at selected Clicks Stores with a RSP of R95

My verdict:

- Whenever using volume hair products, I am always left with a sticky after effect on my hair but with the John Frieda Luxurious Volume Blow Lotion my hair felt soft and silky like as if I had no product in my hair.

- I tested the John Frieda Luxurious Volume Blow Lotion on wet and dry hair and bite times the results were excellent. But for the best results spray on towel-dried hair, concentrating on roots for crown volume. Make sure under surface section and surface are fully covered. Blow-dry and style as desired.

-I didn't have to do my normal routine of using a volume brush to get "Big Jersey Hair"

- I love the texture it gave to my hair.

- The hold of the product lasted all day into the next.

I rate this product a 9.5/10 and it will defiantly be my go to hair product from now on.

Let my know what products you think I should review.

The LBD

Lately I've been wearing a lot of black. I am used to it as black tights are my go to for everything, that doesn't mean all I want to wear is black all day everyday, but when I do black I want to do it correctly. This post is all about my LBD.

What LBD means to me:
I remember coming across the word LBD while studying fashion and not having a clue what it meant. Finally, when I found out what it meant and where it originated from I fell in love with the "little black dress". Thanks to Coco Chanel ladies can use her creation for any occasion.

My LBD story is all about being sexy yet classy. The LBD I'm wearing could be used for a high tea, a night out with the girls, funeral and that is what your go to LBD should be. The dress you can wear to any occasion and look amazing.

Advice when shopping for an LBD:
- Don't save a buck on this. If you willing to spend on a good quality dress that is made out of expensive material you and follow the care instructions you will get years of wearing it.
- If you not sure style to get, try an hour glass style as its complimentary to a lot of body shapes.
- Don't wear black on black. If you want a classy timeless look, do silver or gold, pearls are always a win.

Jeans Abayaah

I'm proudly wearing House of Taaliyah's Jeans Abayah. The Jeans Abaayah is self explanatory, it's an Abayah worn over your casual outfit. I don't actually do casual very well, I think. The outfit started with the shoes. Again, I bought these shoes at the Mr Price online store which I think is my new favorite pass time..

I popped the outfit up with my scarf. I didn't think that colour would look good against my complexion, but I am glad I took a chance, I hope to expand my hijab horizons with more colours and if you any of you have great hijab tutorials I should check out please on twitter or Instagram @drizzlesdomain.

The lighting was good, how could I not take a selfie?

But 1st let me take a selfie.

 

The Jeans Abaayah is available for R500 and can be shipped at an addional cost. Exclusively from House of Taaliyah.

Trust yourself! Trust that you can! Trust that you will!

Magnum turns 25

I love ice cream. And one brand known very well in South Africa is Magnum. We all know Magnum ice cream as the fancy ice cream you can get anywhere, now I know there are tons of more fancier ice creams out there, (is there such a word as fancier?) anyway getting back to Magnum ice cream turning 25.

To celebrate turning 25, they lunched the red velvet ice cream, so of course I headed out and got a few to review. I think magnum ice cream is awesome, but this red velvet ice cream didn't hit the spot. I felt the ice cream tasted more like a frozen yogurt, which I didn't mind. I prefer very sweet desserts thou to medium sweet desserts.  

Let's talk about the look: I think the silver packaging in elegant, FANCY, classy and stylish. Then you open the packet and you are greeted with a white cream cheese and silver bullets (not sure if you call it that) covering the red velvet ice cream. 

I'm no foodie, but I do consume a lot of food and I try to eat the best. I would rate this experience a 9/10, it does tickle your sweet tooth and it won't make you feel guilty about cheating on your diet because of the frozen yogurt like taste.

You can steal my fingerprint from this picture its so clear. Thank You HD
for showing my Getto nails so clear.

Had to get a selfie with my ice cream.

I would like to hear your thoughts on the Magnum Red Velvet Cupcake,

B.E.G fashion lookpost

We in Johannesburg have had very peculiar weather, it's, it's sunny yet chilly, so we aren't getting to enjoy spring 100%, but I didn't let that stop me from celebrating the second Month of spring. I found this skirt on the Mr Price online store a while back. It comes with a matching top, but I didn't like the idea of having a matching top, the skirt has so many colours so it wouldn't be difficult to style it. 

I love this skirt because of the inner skirt being shorter than the outer skirt. I get the best of both worlds, a long and short skirt. I am in love with the print, and colours, it's screams spring/summertime.  
 

I prefer a plain top as my skirt will be the center peace I went for a lilac colour tee as I always go for white or black and wanted something different.

I wanted to go all out with my accessories, and one obsession, I've had for a while is headbands. I genuinely love it but suck at wearing it so after hours of research on how to wear a headband and not look ridiculous, I am proud to say I have some tricks up my sleeve. The headband I used is actually a chain, but I wouldn't recommend using a chain as I did with a loose pendant as it moves around while walking and messes up the hair.

If you follow me on Instagram you will know how crazy am about rings atm but I have a new addition, its nail tips as you can see me wearing in my look post.

So this is my look post and if you can see I have a Greek goddess feel with my headband, boho chic with my necklace and rings, an earth child feel with my skirt. I took 3 passions of mine and combined it into one outfit.

Headband: Honey
Top and Skirt: Mr Price Online
Belt: Pay & Save Fabric Store
Necklace: Legit
Bangle: Forever New
Rings: Mr Price and Legit
Shoes: Solo

Zach's eid outfit look post

1st things 1st it has bring brought to my attention I spell Zach's nick name differently to how he spells it. Well, I say different strokes for different folks, but from today's post onwards I will try and spell it the same way he does.

I thought I was last minute in my Eid shopping but Zach was even worse only getting his shirt for Eid the Friday before Eid. I think when it comes to us and shopping we either get lucky or its just a fail.

I don't know if Zach actually intended to wear this shit as he bought 2 and I bullied him into wearing this on and the way I thought would look good, well I am a stylist after all. I don't take credit for this look as I know Zach had great style, but I do take credit for the pictures.

Jeans: factorie
Bow Tie, Cross Bands: Thruworts
Shirt: Mr Price

 

 



So I've been posting all about my Eid outfit and Zach's outfit post, but didn't really get into detail as to how I spent my Eid.

I started my day off with breakfast with my family at home and the minute the men left for the farm I headed to shower and doll myself up. I would say a total of 3 hours for hair, makeup and dressing which I think isn't that bad hey? Let me know in the comments below how long does it take you to get dressed. We then headed to my dads family to spend the day with them. I feel so grateful to have so many people to spend my Eid with and the family that hosted us for Eid really went out of their way and the décor was gorgeous and the food was great and plenty of sweet treats and great company. 

The décor for Eid lunch and gifts for the guest.
