This month I have been so overwhelmed with school work. Although I am happy to report that I only have to write my dissertation and it will all be over. Yipee! My home girl V and I have been shopping up a storm, in the aid stress relief and research, for this blog of course.
1. ZARA
If you live in London you cannot walk two steps without seeing some up to the minute fashionista with this tote or it's cousin on her arm I have one and I love it. I am currently letting it rest as it is just soooooooo popular right now.

2. Illamasqua
This make -up line just get's better and better. My girl V invested in their skin base foundation and has found true love.lol After being a MAC' groupie for years she decided to step outside her make-up box and try some-thing new. It paid off; I have bought a lipstick from this line and I have also gifted some products all to rave reviews. The staff at their counters have an unusually sunny disposition without being annoying and they are well versed on make-up for black women.

3. Dr Bronners Castile Soap
This soap is the shizzle. it is made from hemp. and contains nothing but natural products. It has mutiple uses but I like to use it to wash my hair. (when I don't feel like using black soap) it is super concerntrated so you only need a teeny bit and it gets your scalp and hair really clean. If you use too much it will dry out you tresses so use sparily. I also use it to wash my lady parts. I find regular soap too harsh and no soap at all a little weired. I use the baby extra sensitive kind for obvious reasons, I have found it really nice especially after waxing as it soothes any redness and irritation.
