Food for your skin

Taking care of our skin has become such a tricky business, especially the skin on our face. Keeping a clean, healthy, and glowing skin is the ultimate key to maintaining or promoting beauty. Even for those who believe in makeup like I do, beautiful skin creates a beautiful canvas!


So what is it that our skin really needs?

GOLD PLATED FACE $$$



 Gold  has been a symbol of glamour and opulence since forever! Without gold history would be boring really. Imagine the stories of Cleopatra, pirate ships, the Bible, kingdoms and warships without gold. Gold does not only glitter, but it symbolises power as well.

 

Now imagine having all of that power on your face!

The cleaning power of 'dirt'.

Last weekend I visited my local pharmacy looking for a clay mask to help tighten my skin. After spending almost an hour on my quest, confused by all the different ingredients in the variety of clays and very few of them with actual 'dirt' clay in them, I thought of my grandmother's ibomvu (red soil).



There are so many types of face masks available in in pharmacies/drugstores that if you don't understand your skin type or ingredients required by your skin, you are in trouble! There are even more recipes to choose from, from so many different cultures on how to make you own face masks to target your skin's needs.

Hello, and welcome!



Dear friend, thank you for visiting my Blog.


My name is Posh, a beauty fanatic from the beauty school of life. Just like many girls, I have tried my own disastrous and successful beauty potions , broken a couple of palettes, been the talc powder faced Marilyn, forged the Ndebele neck rings to try elongate my short neck, robbed my mom’s crops of soil for a literal ‘mud’ bath, contoured and highlighted like the girls on YouTube… the works!
