If my outfit was any more warm toned, I would spontaneously combust.
Review, Swatches | MAC Strobe Cream in Goldlite
I know MAC’s popularity has been declining over the years, and a lot of fan favourites were like so just due to hype, but there are quite a few cult products that have stood the test of time because they are the sh*t and still better than a lot of other new offerings out there. And I intend to shine some light on these (now unsung) heros.
Review, Swatches | Róen RóGlow Skin Stick in Glazed
For a girl who isn’t that much of a fan of cream-based make-up, I own a lot of stuff from a brand that only offers cream products. Here is another product from Róen, and unlike the others I’ve tried, I seriously doubted I was going to like this one.
Review, Swatches | Victoria Beckham Posh Lipstick in Pout
When it comes to luxury makeup, Victoria Beckham takes the prizes for sophisticated packaging. I didn’t know sophistication would be a word I would use to describe packaging, but alas, here we are. Here’s to hoping what is inside is just as impressive.
Review | Karl Lagerfeld Archive Fan Small Crossbody Bag
Once in a while there is a piece that makes me think, “that’s going to be mine”. No ifs, ands or buts.

There were a lot of great items (belts, boots, wallets) but this bag was what stole my heart.
And it was going to be mine.
Haircare Empties #1
Here is a list of what products I used up during the past few months, what I thought of them, and which ones I might repurchase.
Winter Rainbows
This sheer, mesh-like dress was from Calvin Klein’s collection for last year’s pride month. It is very fitted, so I enjoy it more on winter, when I can wear it with compressing leggings underneath.
Review | Dr Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Pore Perfecting & Refining Serum
I had this little gem on my skincare stock drawer, just discretely standing there, waiting to be used and blow me away.
Royal Blues and Tailored News
I keep putting off publishing outfits with my new Karl Lagerfeld Archive fan bag because I wanted to review it first, but it’s becoming difficult since it’s one of my favourites.
Review | [comfort zone] Renight Cream and Hydramemory Cream Gel
Comfort Zone seems to be a spa-focused brand that isn’t that easily accessible, at least not on big beauty retailers, and yet, I somehow ended up with two moisturisers from them.
