Florma SA

I was introduced to Florma SA by Rushana Isaacs at a Glam Queens, Mocktails and Makeovers event, held in September. 

   


  
I was so intrigued by the perfect coverage foundation, as it required no translucent powder to set it. I had looked Florma SA up on Instagram and DM to enquire about getting samples, as I have typical Indian skin tone and require 2 colors of foundation to achieve my perfect coverage. The samples had cost a total of R99-00 including delivery. Florma SA had just asked for my current foundation brand names and the tone codes I use at the moment. It took them 3 days to match my colors but they had kept me updated daily till it was dispatched. When my samples arrived, I was super excited to try them out.
















I decided to put Florma SA perfect coverage foundation to the test, as many as the samples would allow and to my surprise they allowed, 4 looks with 4 different brushes and methods to see if I could an achieve flawless perfection.



The first look was a nude and natural dewy look created using the real technique foundation brush for an airbrushed look

The second look was an Indian cultural look with a rich golden glow with a deep and intriguing story, using a real techniques kabuki brush.




The third was a simple ballet glamour look, with a feather light rose gold glow, this look was achieved using a cheaper quality brush by impulse




The last look was a modest glamour look fit enough for the fashion runway. This look was created with a silicone blender





After all 4 looks were done and worn over a long period of time ranging from 8 hours to 12 hours a time, I was impressed that the perfect coverage foundation required no buffing during the day or translucent powder to set it, only a setting spray. The product did not shine or cake on my oily T-zone, the foundation had remained in place. The South African climate is not the easiest one to wear flawless make-up in, without a fuss or a buff, but with this foundation I have found it to be adjustable to the climate and the maintenance while wearing is minimal. I am a Makeup Artist by profession but when it comes to my own makeup, I prefer minimal effort and minimal maintenance during the course of the day.






Finally, I decided to purchase the full-size product at a cost of R349-00 each, Florma SA, they were helpful and assisted me through the online purchase process, in 2 days my delivery was on my work desk. A product I would recommend to any one in search for an excellent coverage foundation.

The power of the Haldi Ubtan

 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, plants, roots and flowers

An update on havoc or maybe not, PART 2

Here, I thought part 2 would be typed and rolled out in no time, but, it's clearly no surprise that I have slacked and the release is so delayed.  I thought I'd give the havoc and unorganized lifestyle a bit more time and space to spill out in front of me before I give the verdict. Let me down right honest,  "I CANNOT DO THIS ANY LONGER!" I have seen the passed few months literally spill out at me, from unplanned events, to last minute clothing shopping and unexpected set backs, taking me a back. I prefer my daily to be more organised and structured to fit in time  for everything, I plan out months in advance if my wardrobe would need updating and changes, I am hands on with events and coordinating them accordingly, I normally can handle moments of unexpectedness if they rare. I have realized I'm too much of a controller and planner, I need to be organised and well prepared, to allow the unexpected to happen, I'm not one who loves to be surprised
