The benefits of coconut water We already know the positive influence that coconut oil has on your health. Coconut water is such a refreshing summer drink so now let’s explore the amazing uses of coconut water on skin and hair and you are going to love the beauty benefits. Drinking coconut water sure helps your skin to look younger and fresh by eliminating harmful toxins. However, just sprits some of that water on your face and bring your dull face to life almost instantly. Cleaning the face is a vital step in making sure that impurities that accumulate are actively rid. Coconut water applied to the skin ill remove impurities and neutralize the skin. It will work marvelously as a make - up remover as well. Put in a few drops of lemon juice in it and it will help brighten up your skin and hydrate it beautifully too. Summer , summer , summer we love you but not the orangish red suntan. So you haven’t yet found a natural remedy for removing that tan you get at the beach every time you go?
Well, a simple home remedy you have just found and the bonus of it also being cost effective. Age defying properties! Who wants to look older than their actual age? Or why not strive for younger looking skin when you are in fact 45, countless trips to the cosmetic counters are not needed here, the remedy is pretty simple. This is so light on the skin, great for teenagers, simple dabbing with cotton wool on the scars and blemishes will help lighten them up fast. Wrinkles can be eased with this regular usage as well. The anti-fungal and anti-viral properties of coconut water helps in the healing process to a great extent. we all are so aware of dry skin, we keep doing mirror checks oh so often. Apply balls dipped in coconut water regularly and see the change. It’s the most natural pure moisturizer ever. Your skin will feel soft and smooth once again and you will stay away from dry skin forever because after all coconut water is the closest pure thing to water.

Model: Makeup: Most photographers go and photograph something that they see, that exists, and that somebody else has created - they document it. But fashion photographers have to create what they’re going to photograph. We have to go into the thought and build it up, get a girl, get a guy, get a situation, get the house, get the decor. It’s the meaning of the word photography: “writing with light.” ~ The great Mario Testino What does Fashion mean to you? “I don’t believe in fashion. I believe in costume. Life is too short to be same person every day.” I believe that fashion enables transformation – and transformation is a good thing. Change is good. As seasons change, fashion changes. Fashion means change to me.
Bianca Naidoo Makeup by Charelle
Why did you choose this type of photography?
How did you develop your style of capturing images
As a photographer I actually don’t stick within only the genre of fashion photography. I lean towards capturing people. It just so happens that most people wear clothes. I think the fashion element helps us create more. And of course, this is a good thing.
My style of photography is ever changing. I think the core stays the same – but I am always looking to better myself and my imagery. I am truly grateful to be able to work in an artistic space which allows me to always try new ways of essentially doing the same thing.
Project scouted is highly popular, can you take us through the process and how did this all come together?
How do you push your creativity
Project Scouted is a collaborative initiative of creatives catalyzed by beauty. From the onset of me doing photography, I have always held yearly projects to push myself and give back to the industry. For more info on project scouted: www.projectscouted.com Site designed by the talented: Lyle Young
I find inspiration in almost everything in life; from the waves of the ocean to the pages of various magazines. Often the subjects I photograph or the garments they wear aid in me pushing boundaries.

FIRST DRIVE THE ALLi3 NEW BMW X1 BMW
Not only has the appearance and trimming on the second generation changed, but the rebellious new X1 adopts a transverse-engine layout for front- or all-wheel-drive applications, although some enthusiaists flinch at the thought - Former CEO Norbert Reithofer, now head of the supervisory board, set out to re-imagine the brand to set it on a course for the future. From a practicality and comfort perspective - this change resulted in less length in the engine bay and more length for the cabin. Hardly ever has increased height improved the looks of a vehicle, but in this case, the new X1’s 53 extra milimetres makes a positive difference. Another contributor to the more attractive proportions are the reduced overall length and greater width. A combination that gives the X1 a more SUV look than a wagon. I was offered a test drive from Supertech Durban and their BMW Genius accompanied me on the trip. The Genius is part of BMW’s Future Retail programme and a way to enhance the customer experience.

Looks are subjective but my first impression of the new BMW X1 when I viewed it on the Supertech Durban showroom floor was - ‘Much more better looking‘. The X1’s successful exterior makeover is responsible for the good first impression, but the F48 has inner beauty to match, Both aluminium and wood trims are smooth to the touch, and are lower maintenance than the fingerprint grabbing, scratch attracting piano black from the previous models. The cabin is well-pieced together, and most surfaces within reach react well to the knuckle rap.

outhful and playful without sacrificing a business-like manner for the young executive, the all new BMW X1 is no longer the curious kid in the X family.
“She is pleasing to look at and sporting when you’re in the mood.” The F48 may be slightly shorter than the older model, but the new X1’s wheelbase is a significant 90 mm longer. The SAV is much more spacious than its predecessor due to the raised seating position and increased headroom, shoulder room and elbow room for all occupants. The optional slidable rear seats, which also get adjustable backrests makes long journeys much more pleasant. The boot loading area, that can be opened using the foot sensing function, has also increased in size to 505 litres - almost 100 litres more than the first generation and this can be increased to 1 550 litres by folding the back seats. These improvements alone make the new SAV a better packaged family vehicle. From a performance perspective, Do not expect to find a six cylinder powerplant in the new X1, all models are powered by a variance of four cylinder motors. But you will find the latest incarnation of the BMW TwinPower Turbo technology, which reduces the weight from
a heavy six cylinder and improves efficiencies. Turbo lag?... What turbo lag?. The response is great ,it’s smooth and ever-willing to rev, and there’s even a sweet soundtrack when the hammer is dropped. BMW pioneered the premium compact SUV segment with the original X1, but with all things - the market has definitely evolved since then, therefore a facelift or re-working the previous model would just not do it. It’s chalk and cheese when you compare the 1st generation X1 to the F48. The car is quite a different animal from the SAV it replaces. A well packaged family car with more focus on space and practicality and best of all she is pleasing to look at and sporting when you’re in the mood. But don’t take my word for it - Give the guys at Supertech Durban a call on 031 941 3072 or visit their showroom off Edwin Swales Drive in Bellair and experience the new BMW X1 for yourself.
Bouncy Curls
VS
Sure, My Life isn’t perfect, but my hair is. Curling irons were all not created to achieve the same look. The barrel size you choose should be based on the overall look you would like to achieve. Beachy waves are best created with a bigger diameter curling iron. Smaller tighter curls are achieved with a smaller diameter curling iron. Heat and temperature play a vital role in achieving your look, look for a curling tool that provides variable heat settings, if your hair is treated, colored, fragile and fine it is best to use a low heat setting to avoid excessive damage. Thicker fuller hair can resist more heat so a higher temperature setting can be used. Divide hair into 4 or 6 manageable sections, depending on the thickness of your hair. Clip the others aside while working with the first section. Working from your neck, brush through your section and spray some light hold hairspray mist to help with heat protection, shine and strength. Clamp you piece of hair into the barrel and role up until it is completely around the barrel. Hold the curl for about 20-25 seconds for an extra bouncy end result. Continue working on all the sections of your hair until your entire head is complete. Gentle light brush through your hair to loosen the curls a bit or fingercomb them, finish off by misting your entire head with a light setting spray. Turn your blowdryer on the cool blow setting and blast your hair with cool fresh air. The temperature will help normalize your hair, keeping it in place for longer. Spray a bit more with light setting spray once completed.

Silky Sleek
S
Sleek, straight, run your fingers through it kind of hair is something women try to achieve day after day, yet we still somehow manage to fall just short. You would think creating simple, straight strands would be as low maintenance as the hairstyle looks, but unfortunately, the opposite is true. Using the proper shampoo and conditioner: The path to sleek hair all starts with what you are using to cleanse and condition your hair. If your hair is prone to frizz and fly-aways, then you should be using frizz-reducing, smoothing shampoos and conditioners. Hairbrushes are important, too: Brushing your hair with plastic or nylon bristles can cause your strands to break. To prevent breakage from occurring, try using a brush with boar hair bristles instead. Boar bristles are easier on the hair and also help redistribute oils throughout the hair which will boost shine. Smoothing serum: Rub a few drops of smoothing serum on your hair when it is still damp to protect your hair from heat before blow drying. Rough dry: Rough dry (simply use the blow dryer and your fingers, no brush yet) or air dry your hair until it’s 80% dry. Blow drying soaking wet hair will cause more damage than it’s worth, and blow drying too soon can just cause your hair to become frizzy again. Blow dry with a flat paddle brush: Make sure your brush has a mix between nylon and boar bristles to prevent breakage and steer clear of metal round brushes. Aim the blow dryer in a downward motion towards the hair, this will help lay the hair cuticles flat and prevent frizz from forming. Use heat protectant spray: While your hair is damp and after your hair is completely dry from blow drying, lightly spritz a heat-protectant onto your hair before you use a flat iron. Flat Iron: Straighten one to two-inch sections of hair at a time with a ceramic-plated iron. Ceramic-plated irons cause less damage than other flat irons and straighten hair more quickly and efficiently than other straighteners. Make sure you don’t go over the same piece of hair more than three times, though. If your hair is not straight by the third time, it may be time to invest in a better straightener. Set your style: Hit your freshly straight hair with the cool setting of the blow dryer to set the look. Then, finish off your sleek and silky locks with a bit of smoothing cream. Doing this will keep your hair smooth and straight all day long.
