Japonesque



I am absolutely LOVING Japonesque's Velvet Touch Concealer! Not only does it work wonders in concealing those imperfections we all want to be gone already... It is the cutest, most compact little product that will fit right in you're pocket, purse, bag etc. 

I love the design too.. I have been a fan of Japonesque for some time now, years in fact. They never ever disappoint! Use brush, sponge or fingers and dab on area that needs it. I like to add a touch of my foundation along with it for the ultra sheer and perfect colour match.


5 colours to suit different skin tones. 
Matte coverage to hide those blemishes.

Velvet Touch Blush.. also very gorgeous!!
6 different shades.
Pressed powder, silky feel.
Great for spring!
Beautiful radiant colours.

Unite



Unite is becoming the go to hair brand for celebs and stylists.. 32 products to choose from to help you with all you're hair needs! Working as a Stylist in London and now LA you constantly see and hear what works and what flops in terms of best products out there. Unite became more and more spoken of backstage as years went on, now the brand is thriving in 2014!

Unite GO365 Hairspray
Truly amazing product! There is absolutely nothing like it on the market and am so grateful to have been sent this product to test out. Unique hairspray that literally will work for all hair types giving you the choice for soft, medium or strong hold. No more carrying 3 different bottles for different hold preferences.. Travel with just the one bottle for all you're styling needs.

Simply turn the nozzle to the desired strength!
3 Hairsprays in 1.




Very cool nozzle options.

From the U Luxury range I am loving.. well my hair is loving.. 
Intense Mask Luxury Treatment
Strengthens, protects, nourishes.. all those wonderful ways you want you're hair to smell, feel this is it!
Contains Argan oil which I find works with all hair types.. especially dry, damaged, coloured or curly hair. This is a powerful mask to give life to you're hair. It smells of sweet Hawaiian White Honey.. ahhh hair heaven.

Take some time out for a pamper session at home.. take a bath and let this work it's charm for 20 minutes before revealing soft, silky, healthy hair to the world. Yes please!


Magic Potion.. or what Unite like to call 7Seconds Condition Leave In Detangler.
Long, curly hair, knots or dry, coloured hair that can leave you in tangles?
Give this 7 seconds to work its magic. Throw in you're gym bag.. I just love this product.
Works to protect your hair all day sealing the cuticle and locking in color.


Check out Unite and find something for you're hair concern..






Product of the day..

Chapped Lip Remedy


$7.00 (USD)
Fragrance Free Lip Balm
Smooths and repairs dry, chapped skin/lips!

Robert Piguet Parfums

One of my favourite parfum companies of all time.. The history of the brand, the scents they produce, the love that goes in to these products make Robert Piguet Parfums loved by so many.


I am totally addicted to Fracas from the Classic Collection.. (which I have written about in a past post) Jasmine, musk, sandalwood, oh I just can't get enough.
Recently I was lucky enough to try some scents new to me from the brand that just reconfirmed how much I love the Robert Piguet and his magic potions.

Here are a couple that stood out.. Men take note as Valentines Day is almost upon us.. 


From the Nouvelle Collection..
Mademoiselle Piguet
Notes: Bergamot, Tonka Bean and Orange Flower
This bottle oozes romance with its rich warmth from the orange blossom
Clings to the skin smelling sweet all day long.


From the Pacific Collection.. My favourite would be
Jeunesse
Notes: Blackcurrant, raspberry, pomegranate and musks
A wonderful combination of sweet scents to lift you're day.



Make sure to check out the range online.. Better yet get sniffing at a store that stocks the brand.. Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcus etc..
You will thank me!

I love this for its versatility. For those wanting a light hold.. simply just use on wet or damp hair.. For a strong hold apply a little more to dry hair and style as needed.

Another Dual purpose product. 
This product is filled with Vitamin E to leave you're skin smooth and healthy while removing dirt and grime. Also works wonders for a wet weather shave.. Just lather up and get on with you're grooming, no fuss. Great bar to travel with men.
