Where have I been?

Hey lovelies, I don't quite know how to kick this off yet. I am doing alright and I hope you  are too. I have been deciding whether or not to keep the blog, which is why I have been missing for quite a while. Kamboopics There has not been much happening in the life of my hair I thin k but since I wanted to make this blog both spiritual and lifestyle-ish I have rather been focused on my new job(again!) and life in general. I have also been feeling bad for not paying attention to this space spiritually. I think if I had put in more effort there would have been quite a lot of improvement during the absence and a lot more of you as well, but I would rather look on the bright side and put in the work moving forward no sense in looking back. I have also been reading about what makes blogs successful lol and one of the things I read the most was to never give up on your blog, most people give up within the first year and I do not want to be a part of that statistic. So here I a...

My Lippie Collection.

Hello girlfriend, Now we know in every make up loving girl there should be a must have lipstick or at least the 'I feel lucky today' lipstick. I initially just wanted to talk about the Signature Cosmetics liquid metal lipsticks(gloss) I am not sure what they are, instead I thought it would be better if I include the newest additions to my stash. I hope you are doing great as the winter is slowly creeping in on this side of the country. I am that one weird person who buys lipsticks with colours that are out of season. Am I the only one? I cannot be alone in this. Take this as a warning for the colours you are about to see before wondering to yourself why am I wearing pink in April. I will stop jabbering. I have for you some beau's from L.A. Girl Matte Lipsticks. I gotta say I love the formula of these lippies except for the bright pink one. They totally missed the matte there. It applies well but I feel like it swishes around on my lip and has a sheen to it, some t...

Singled Out?

Hello Child of God, I know it has been a while since I last posted something related to Christianity and I am afraid this will be more of a rant. I apologise for that in case you were seeking some encouragement, I too am seeking some encouragement. source:: kaboompics So I have been single for a while and looking into dating. I am a google scholar honestly, anything that crosses my mind ends up in a google search. So recently I have searched how do people who are dating remain pure till they get hitched? And the most common answers among the blogs I went through was to have an accountability partner. My mind started racing in search of who I could find to make my accountability partner now and when I start dating. Naturally I look into the resources offered by the church and they are all for couples(engaged/married/families). This for me is a little bit discouraging because I am not going to marry the next guy I meet within our first two dates, I still need to get to know ...

NARS lipstick from Chinatown

Hello lovelies Isn’t that a catchy title? I am not click baiting you, I promise. How are you doing? I am doing alright and as you can see I am also trying to be more consistent with my uploads on the new blog. Please let me know how you are finding it so far. Some few weekends ago I went to Chinatown to go get some cheap supplies and I left with a lot more than I bargained to buy. The real reason I went to Chinatown was to go get some false lashes. They have a packet of three pairs for only R16. I have been trying out false lashes lately and found that those are a great way to start practising since I ruined two expensive pairs from Clicks R40 each(comes with glue though). And on top of that I find that they are light and have sparse hairs, perfect for first timers like me. I have to admit I have gotten better with each application. all under R150  On the list of the things that I bought are the NARS lipstick, an eye shadow brush(love it),ano...

Local Hair products to support 2

Hello lovely, Just though I should do a quick post for you, so that you don't forget about me. I am ever so tempted to go buy the next product at my local Clicks or Dischem (Dark and lovely is not making it easy hey) and then I remind myself there are willing South Africans out there who are in need of my support and this platform is also another way of getting them known and spreading the love. I am sure some of them you have heard of and some you have probably seen on TV. Nilotiqa If you have not seen them on TV then you are seeing them here. This brand has been flooding my timeline on Instagram since I am following a natural hair movement and I have been hearing good things about it. And as usual I am always on the lookout for local brands. I just wish they were readily available in Cape Town. I have also been eyeing their detangler, can't wait to get my hands on it. Nature's Wishlist http://natureswishlist.weebly.com/shea-butter.html They claim to be...

Living with Heat Damage

Heloo Lovelies, Glorious heat style I am currently writing this sitting in a hot bus, the heat in Cape Town is unbearable some days. And the make up on my face is literally sliding off(this is the number one reason why I don’t wear make-up in summer). Enough of my rant, how are you doing? Great I hope. I may have mentioned briefly in one of my previous posts and on my Instagram account that I had some heat damage. This happened towards the end of 2017. You’ll find that most people cut off their hair when they have had heat damage but I have decided not to and live through it. I noticed that it was not so bad that I need to cut my hair off. How did I end up here? I have straightened my hair before and blow dried it numerous times, one would think I am a pro by now. I had a shortage of products and was trying to attempt the most straight look I could get(that was my mistake). I had a list of products to purchase in my head and when the time neared I did not bu...

Putting Everything Together

Hello lovelies, I am sure by now you have been wondering what has happened to the hair blog and the spiritual blog, obviously to the people who have been following them respectively. I should have made an announcement before deciding on the change, it happened on a whim. I have been slacking on both blogs and decided that it would be easier to have them on one platform. In that way I can give you constant posts on either hair or spirituality.  I personally update the blog(posts and technical things), so this is going to be less maintenance as well going to forward. All of the wonderful things from both blogs are still in the archives and will remain there for your usage. With that said, I humbly apologise for the sudden change I hope it won't send you running for the hills. This is going to be a mesh up of both worlds. I am a Christian and I believe in harmony,not separating things but rather making them work together. This was always my first initiative-when I created M...

A year of Embrace

Hello Child of God, How you doing? I know I have barely been here, I have not been here at all and I sincerely apologise. Honestly I did not know what to write or how to write what I wanted to say but I realise it is better to give you two sentences than nothing at all right? I hope the new year has been good to you and I pray that it gets better with each day. As I was walking the other day to go get my daughter from the day care, I was having a conversation with God which is always funny and fun. If anything God understands us absolutely completely. I am the type of person that loves giggling like a little kid that's being tickled and it sound weird for an adult but that is me, and God completely gets that which is why our conversations are always funny(almost always). During this conversation , Holy Spirit began to tell me that this year is the year of Embracing God, as last year was a year of maturity. I was meant to write a post about that last year at the beginning of the ...

Product Empties...

Hello lovelies, Happy New Year from fro and I. I have been thinking about what to do with Moriri Wa Tshego and I am still not sure, while I am thinking about that I will do post like these that are close to my life as much as possible and that means that I will lack in consistency a bit. I am also pondering on combining both my blogs into one, then it won't be much of a hassle to update and post. Now that is out of the way, how are you? Is 2018 great or what? I mean now that I am maturing I look for excitement in anything and everything, a new year means a new start whether good or bad, it's all about perception right? In saying that, I hope you are doing amazing and even if the year is greeting you with a slap, I encourage you to slap it back and walk on with a smile on your face. My last post was a long time ago, not even a happy end of year post, huuu shame , sorry. I heat damaged my hair and will tell you all about it in another post. In this post , I will be sharin...
