#1 - Mecca Cosmetica, Cheek Tint & Illuminating Balm Duo
This one I got as a gift a week or so ago and I have not been able to put it down. The soft texture of the two creams are just divine. The bottom is a shimmery rose gold which I use to brighten my eyes as an eyeshadow. The top is a rosy balm for the lips and cheeks (I use for both!) The creamy texture isn't too heavy on the skin and it's the perfect product for a natural makeup look.

#2 - Milk Solutions - Grapefruit & Pomegranate Body Beautifying Cream
I've been using this body cream for 3 months now and I'm inlove with it (I got it on my trip to South Africa.) I love it's rich fragrance and soft texture. It's not heavy whatsoever but rather a light layer that hydrates the skin immediately. The grapefruit flavor isn't too fruity which makes it the perfect cream!
I bought it at Cape Town's Sorbet but here's a link to purchase online:
#3 - Elim Cuticle MD - Cuticle Oil
If you follow my instagram, you know that I've had a nail crisis this past month. I have been getting my nails done with gel without breaks for a year straight and it's weakened my nail beds to the point of pain. This cuticle oil has saved my nails! They've been revived ever since I started using the oil twice a day. I bought it in Cape Town at a beauty salon, Dante, but found that it's imported from London. Here's a link for more info and to order:
#4 Lucas' PawPaw ointment - Lipbalm, cream for wounds, bites, cuts etc.
If you have known me for a while now, you would know that everywhere I go, I have a tube or a tub of this with me. My tub sits next to my bed and I have a tube for each purse. I've been using this ointment for my lips religiously for around 8 years. I swear by it! It's the perfect balm to hydrate the lips because it's not thick and it doesn't dry out the lips that other ointments tend to do. Every time a family member or friend comes to visit from Australia, this is what I ask for!
#5 Mask of Magnaminty - Lush
I always save the best for last! This face mask has been by my side since my teenage, acne-filled days. What I love about this mask is the smell and the texture on my skin. It exfoliates the skin on my face and leaves me feeling fresh and clean. I have very sensitive skin so I can't put many products on my face but this one has served me justice for years. I use it twice a week and leave it on for 10-15 mins. It's part of my me-time remedy!
