For quite some time, I've been using my GHD hair straightener to curl my hair, and it's been doing a pretty great job, however I did purchase a curling iron before this (going to re-frame from mentioning the brands name, if you do want to know leave me a comment) and I was totally disappointed from some odd reason every time I curled my hair with "the other curling wand", I was left with my hair tangled and looking horrible after just a few hours. So when I received this Glam Palm Curling wand I was absolutely eager to experiment, when using a curling wand your curls are more defined, and you can basically control the curl you create. This one of the main reason why having a curling wand is better than using your hair straightener or curling iron (the curling iron is the one with clamps). The Glam Palm curling wands comes with a hand-glove to protect your pretty darn fingers from getting burnt, the curling wand has three different setting ranging from; high, medium and low, making the hair styling tool great for various hair types and gives you more control over the curl that is achieved, this feature is one that other, curling wands tend to lack. The high heat setting allows for more defined long-lasting curls and also if you have tough hair to curl than this setting is one for you, the med and low heat settings allow for more wavy curls, and not as defined as the higher heat setting. The curling process with the Glam Palm curling wand is a little longer than with the my hair straightener, but it's definitely worth the extra few mintues, I was able to create lose beach waves in less than 20 minutes. My curls lasted me all day long, and even in this humid summer weather, I had very little frizz and beautiful curls all day long.My hair effortlessly run through the curling wand, so there was no tugging required, curling my hair has never been such a splendid experience, till now.This is by far an absolutely incredible product and I would without a single doubt in my mind recommend this product,every lady needs a Glam Palm curling wand. After using the Glam Palm for a few weeks now, I was able to develop 5 tips and tricks when using a curling wand: 1. Curl your hair in hair pony: this allows you to create quick waves, in a short period of time literally 5 minutes and you good to go, with lose beautiful looking waves. 2. Curl your hair AWAY from your face, specifically on theside of your face aka the hair that frames your face, this helps you to create a more voluminous look. 3. Always start your curls closer to the root, the closer you start the curl to root of your hair, the longer period of time the curl will last. 4. While curling your with the curling wand, hold your curling wand vertically for looser curls (pull hair in vertical direction), and horizontally for tighter, voluminous and bouncier curls (pull hair in horizontal direction) 5. After sometime, you will need to clean your curling wand, because over-time product build up occurs, you can do this by simply heating the curling wand to a low setting and using a damp cloth wipe to the entire curling wand. My beautiful if you would like to purchase the Glam Palm curling you can head on over to thier website, and plus thier delivery is super fast , so no waiting for ages!this curling wand makes is perfect if you want spoil yourself or a loved one this festive season.

I'm literally jumping up and down as I'm so excited to share with you beautiful's a local, fairly new online beauty shop that I discovered a few weeks ago, Dream Fusion. Dream Fusion stocks beauty brands such as kardashians beauty, caribbean tan and many more. But I wouldn't be so excited if there wasn't something special about this online beauty store right? Well, what sets Dream fusion apart from other local online beauty stores is their very own range of organic beauty care products, the range is called full moon beauty, and is made up of variety of skin care products with, only the finest ingredients from mother nature. You probably wondering is it one of 'those products' that say their 100% organic but use harm chemicals to preserve the product "The answer is NO, all Full moon beauty products are hand-crafted, and only enter the production process on request, this ensure no added preservatives. I'm one those people who adore natural product, but become very sceptical as to whether they work or not. So instead of being in the grey area, I put a few products from the full moon beauty range to the test. The Scrub Bar from the full moon beauty range was the first product I tested out. The product comes in container with little cutely shaped individual bars. I found the scrub bars to be great for exfoliation. The scrub bar helped remove my dead skin cells and left a noticeable difference on my legs, as my skin appeared brighter and more smoother, not forgetting softer. I tried using the Scrub bar as lip scrub, just to see if the product can be used in various ways, and I'm happy to report that the Scrub bar makes for the perfect lip scrub too, the product removed the dry flaky skin on my lips, and did not leave my lips feeling like, I needed to use every last bit of my lip balm instead, my lips were fairly moisturized, the scrub bar left a clean, moisturized surface to apply my lipstick on. For those matte lipstick lovers looking for the perfect lip scrub, the scrub bar is definitely one for you.I would also recommend the Scrub bar for exfoliation before shaving your legs, to create a clean surface, for a closer shave. As a women who tends to shave her legs more than wax them only because, its way more convenient. The ingrown hair oil was one product I was really rooting for. I have very sensitive skin especially on my legs area, after shaving/waxing, I'm always left with the terrible sensation of irritation, redness and swelling. So after my normal shaving routine last week, I eagerly reached out and grabbed the ingrown hair oil, applied the oil to my legs and waited a few minutes' did feel a slight tingly sensation but with in minutes my skin was relieved from that horrible itchy feeling, and instead of my legs swelling up and having that unappealing redness, they were left smooth, so much more moisturized, and silkier than ever before. I found the ingrown hair oil to be gentle on my skin, and the oil scent is absolutely heavenly as I am a fan of earthy scents. The oil is also ideal to remove the stickiness that waxing often leaves behind, simply take a cotton pad, apply some oil on the cotton pad, and gentle wipe away, the stickiness. The product also helps to prevent ingrown hair, and is great for trying to eliminate "chicken skin". Lastly, the full moon beauty nourishing lotion bar, is my holy grail of lotions. Honestly this product had me thinking 'why in the world have I been using anything else'. The nourishing lotion bar, just like the scrub bar, comes in a container with cutely shaped individual bars. I love the fact the lotion in a bar, as I do find normal lotions to be rather messy, I don't know if any of you ever had an incident were, you mistakenly knocked-over your bottle of lotion off the dressing table, and had lotion everywhere(and the dreaded task of cleaning all that lotion up), well this has happened to clumsy me a few times, therefore this lotion bar is perfect for me, and if you are anything like me its perfect for you too. The nourishing bar gives your the same results(even better in my opinion)than your normal lotion, after using the nourishing bar just once my skin was already appeared and felt more nourished, moisturized and revitalized. The lotion bar is foolproof, and must-have if you travelling or going away on holiday this summer, no spillage, no fuss! haall the full moon beauty range products mention in this post is available at: http://www.dreamfusion.co.za/index.php/beauty-care
http://www.dreamfusion.co.za/ Don't forget to use my promo code for a discount:DFAMYR16 One more thing, just because all these products are natural, they are not pricey, all dream fusion products are affordable and worth every penny! They even have beauty combo's to make things more affordable, talk about value for money hey! Xx YODHA We all know that every shampoo & conditioner promises some kind of difference in your hair and 60% of the time, weeks have passed and well, you left with the same dull looking hair, and the trouble feeling of being let down. So last week I had the privilege of treating my hair with the John Frieda Brilliant brunette visibly brighter shampoo & conditioner. I trailed the product over weeks period, firstly I have previously used John Frieda products in the past, but nothing recently till the beauty bulletin drops these babies on my beauty desk. I used the product twice on Wednesday and Friday. I'm not fan of washing my hair often, because I do suffer from frizz, dry scalp, and very dry hair, I try to leave those natural good nutrients in my hair for as long as I possibly can.Now enough about my sad hair stories and onto these products, after just two washes my hair was brighter, my "brunetteness" more radiant,and my hair was far more manageable than its ever been. After the first wash, my hair had already felt lighter, my scalp was cleaner, I had no signs of my usually nasty dry sculp.My hair was a little tangled compared to normal, but nothing a de-tangler can't take care off.The conditioner is defintiely my new best friend,if you don;t know by now,I have really bad spilt ends but refuse to cut my hair, this means very dried out ends right? but not with John Frieda Visibly brillant brunette, my hair spilt ends were even soft and silky, and I'm not even over-exaggerating, and this was merely after the first wash. Using the product the second time around just softened it up some more,leaving my hair silky smooth. Having thick indian hair makes styling my hair, a tiring task, that drains every last bit of my energy, cause its so frizzy and unmanageable.The John Frieda Product, made styling my frizzy indian hair a more blissful experience, as my frizz was tamed, I was not left looking like a lion after blow-drying instead, my hair less frizzy and so much easier to style. Overall the product is definite keeper for me.My hair looks much healthier feels incredible and the best part the product smells divine.Using this product has changed my hair experience into delightful one.I love that the results are immediate,and theres no waiting for weeks, no signs feeling of being let down or disappointed. These products can be best described as, salon quality in the comfort of your own home. In fact I'm throwing all those other shampoos and conditioner in my bathroom cabinet out, and replacing them with the John Frieda Range.Now my beauties what are you even waiting for?! Go get these and let me know if your hair experience was upgraded too! (use the hashtag: #meandjohnfreida) Xx Yodha Have you heard about mystique beauty before? Well it was unfamiliar beauty brand to me as well, until last week. I discovered mystique beauty while procrastinating, on Instagram, but I must say it was one of my most delightful procrastination sessions, as I uncovered a beauty brand gem. I did not waste second and hopped on to their website, filled my cart up, and checked on out...Now you know the wait for days on days before you receive your online purchases, not with mystique beauty, I literally had my products on my doorstep the very next morning (plus mystique beauty were running a promotion and I got two of everything, I purchased, how cool?). The first product that I grabbed to use as soon as the delivery man left, was the 24K gold eyetox patch, since I have the worst dark circle under my eyes so anything to help clear it up right? at first, I wasn't really sure how long to keep the product on for, but I went with the normal 15 minutes, the product feels a little slimly but soft and luxurious at the same time living up to the mystique beauty standards. I actually felt rather royal using these gold eyetox patches,as I've only seen celebrity using them before. Once I removed the eyetox patches my dark circles were slightly lightened my skin under my eyes felt softer smoother,and so much brighter though there's a slight tingly sensation, I'm guessing it was the special ingredients including the gold doing its magic. The best part I was able to leave them on all while I applied my eye make-up and killed two birds with one stone as patches caught all the fallout from my eye shadow. I would definitely recommend these products in fact I'm going to grab me a few more right after this... Moving on the second magical product I picked, was the Mystique black suction mask. Now we all have those blackheads somewhere on our skin,and mine happens to be on the most common area my nose (T-zone). So I started off by cleansing my face with warm water thereafter, taking concealer brush, I applied the mask to my whole face, waited for approximately 20mins.And then I peeled of the mask slowly as I got closer to my T-zone I could literally see the blackhead, being sucked away by the mask, it was one of the best feeling in the world.I have previously tried blackhead removal mask and none of them lived up to their word, like this mystique beauty blackhead suction mask. Despite the great result from the blackhead removal, my skin appeared clearer and revitalized, the product definitely nourished my skin,leaving it feeling softer and smoother.This is definite must-have for all year round and the super affordable so no breaking your piggy bank to look fabulous. Another affordable product I got from mystique beauty and a product, I've used every single day since I got it, is the M18 airbabe. The airbabe is perfect for foundation and picks up just the right amount of product and there is no mess, fuss or "cakiness".It provides a flawless finish and doesn't leave those nasty streaky lines, instead you left with an airbrush finish. The airbabe has a rather short handle which makes blending so much easier, this unique brush allows you to adjust your foundations to achieve great coverage. The soft bristles are gentle against my skin, and make using this brush a magnificent experience. The airbabe doesn't strictly have to be used for foundation, its unique size allows for it be used as a contouring brush too (I used the brush to contour my fat face, and it worked great leaving me looking sculpted and with a jaw line) If you a make-up fanatic or just a beginner the airbabe is perfect addition to your make-up kit. I love all my mystique beauty products, they were worth it and can't wait to make my next purchase. If you looking for luxurious products without breaking into your piggy bank than, mystique beauty is your new beauty brand gem.
