To be lighter or To be darker.....

So my recent visit to The Body shop


 for a body fix has left me mesmerized at the new found development in foundation and skin matching at The Body Shop. Their foundation is available in 16 nature inspired shades and now can be modified with shade adjusters to match your skin tone perfectly. here's a mini review on their foundation and the shade adjusters. I will be adding a follow up personal pic review later next week.






Fresh Nude Foundation




Makeup and looking fabulous every day should be a  easy and painless. according to The Body Shop their  Fresh Nude Foundation, enriched with English rose water and aloe vera, this hydrating formula leaves skin feeling beautifully fresh and comfortable all day. It also contains SPF 15 to help protect your skin. With a semi-matte finish, each of these 16 nature-inspired shades mimics the look of fresh-faced natural skin with a nude glow. It has up to 24H moisturisation and SPF 15.  It is suitable for sensitive skin & dermatological tested

Now....

 That they have realised that their 16 nature inspired shades do not cater to all skin tones, they have launched 2 products to assist in the adjustment of shades to acquire your perfect shade.
Introducing...
SHADE ADJUSTING DROPS


No one likes to settle for second best, or not the perfect fit.... now The Body Shop has launched their Shade Adjusting Drops help turn an almost there foundation into the perfect one. 
This is their review from their website....

                                               LIGHTENING DROPS
If you have light to medium skin you may find your foundation looks too dark or orange. A concentration of white and pink pigments in our Lightening Drops helps neutralise yellowness while lightening. Simply add a drop to lighten light to medium shades.
• For use with light to medium foundation shades 
• Transform an “almost right” foundation shade into the perfect one 
• 1 drop = ½ a shade lighter
• Works with most liquid foundations
                                        
DARKENING DROPS 

 If you have dark to deep skin you may find your foundation looks too light or ashy. A concentration of black and red pigments in our Darkening Drops helps darken while keeping the natural depth. Simply add a drop to darken dark to deep foundation shades. 
• For use with dark to deep foundation tones 
• Transform an “almost right” foundation shade into the perfect one 
• 1 drop = ½ a shade darker 
• Works with most liquid foundations


This basic review from the store and the website, this makes me wants to purchase it and test it.

 Stay tuned for the personal review, that i shall test on myself and my favourite 2 assistants, my lovely and always eager elder sisters....

 I personally can't wait...

 Lil spice never stop the sun from shining... 😂😂😂 In my previous post named "Turmeric for clear, bright and acne free skin" posted on the mid 2017, are some variations to this haldi ubtan, used for various skin types and conditions. I have been using and speaking about 'Turmeric Masks" before most people  and companies have been investing time and testing into turmeric and it's properties.. The new craze is the 'Golden magic of turmeric', and people are buying into it, without knowing the history and origin of it.  Here's a bit of Background: 5000 years ago on the Indian subcontinent, men and women took care of their skin and hair during rituals connected with religion.   In the ancient   Ayurveda   tradition, face and body masks called  U btan   were applied and adjusted according to the season. Ubtan masks are in fact the very first cosmetic product ever used in the world. Ubtan is a mix of various herbs, p...

Ever Beauty

I personally have never heard of  Ever Beauty® South Africa  , till I had come across the advert on Instagram. As a beauty and makeup addict, I was eager to see what the brand had to offer and if it was something to get excited about.  The brand was looking for brand ambassadors and MUA's to try out their products.  This is what the founder has to say about the brand:  "Ever Beauty® South Africa offers affordable, quality & professional makeup formulated to compliment the diverse range of skin tones across Southern Africa.The Ever Beauty® brand is all about using makeup as a platform to embrace peoples’ unique differences as well as inspire everyone to embark on the Ever Beauty® journey of capturing, owning and proudly embracing their own beauty."

I received an email re...
