Source

Source is like a ball of fire, the ball of fire. I came from it, yet when I touch it I wince at the singe of my fingertip. I suffer when I leave it. Source is the ball of fire. In which when I submerge myself, I will burn, I will shine and I will […]

Receiving Criticism..

Something happened today.. As some of you may know I write creative pieces such as short stories, poetry etc. And today I was a part of a workshop in which four of my own poems were to be critiqued.. 😬😬😬😬 I’d had fleeting thoughts about it last week but soon forgot about it. Last night […]

This woman..

🌿 See this: This is the face of a woman trying to multitask, fingers in many pies so to speak. Exams, assignments, training, assessments. Not to mention parenting and the ‘hundreds and thousands’ that come with that. The mum who has no make up on the school run, who might not look like she has […]

Model Launcher Bronzer (Beauty Review) 💄

🌿 I have a new favourite bronzer.  And this is it.    I’d not used any Model Launcher products until I tried this.  The bronzer blends beautifully and is fabulous for contouring. 🌿 Although in this picture the product looks quite light I do think it will compliment a number of skin tones. The product […]

One of those days.
