Mini Me, gifting made easy

-





No, I’m not talking about Dr Evil’s mini me from Austin Powers, but rather the innovative company that has been taking gifting to a new level.

Mini Me is a company that specializes in creating personalized mini figurines that look like you, or someone you want it to replicate.

I first came across them last year and I was very tempted to purchase one. A few weeks ago, I got the opportunity to work with them and see how the whole process works, and boy was I excited.


We all get flustered when we have to get someone a present, taking into account what they like and dislike, do they already have it etc. Mini Me has totally eradicated all those doubts from your mind and now offers you something unique to gift someone.

When you go on their website Mini-Me.co.za you can start the process by using their systematic side bar system to easily navigate each part of the figurine.  You can shop the figurine from hair, face, body, legs and accessories. The pieces range from R5-00 to R200-00.

My entire figurine came to a total of R230-00 (including a keyring attachment). I mean to me, that’s pretty affordable for a gift for someone, that is also something that is extremely unique to them.

For my figurine, I decided on a signature look that I always go to, my hair in a middle part, a white top and a medium blue pair of denims. I also added a lipstick in my hand, because if you truly know me, you know that I cannot leave the house without lipstick! Even if I am popping into the garage for bread and milk, looking homeless, I have to quickly pop a cute lipstick color on my lips. I also added a keyring attachment to my figurine so I can attach it to any set of keys!


When my boyfriend opened the parcel when it arrived and sent me pictures, he actually was shocked at how much it looked like me! Mini Me definitely delivered on that promise of personalization.

Mini Me really has elevated gifting and has made it so much easier for us! Thank you Mini Me for making gifting fun and a breeze!

How to shop Pretty Little Thing from South Africa

So by now, I take it everyone knows the incredibly hyped brand, Pretty Little Thing (commonly known as PLT). We have all seen the slay queens on Instagram wearing their clothing while we scroll through our feed in bed,wearing our pyjamas, eating the party-sized bag of chips. Girl, the struggle is real.  But, you can be one of those slay queens too! Early last year I took the plunge and ordered something from them. I order something for £16 (around R290) and shipped directly to Durban from the UK. The dress was, however, on sale and the normal price was £35 (R624). So the problem that I ran into with south African customs is that they just used the marked price of the item and did not take into consideration the receipt. DHL also charged me a R150 handling fee (for absolutely nothing, basically for calling me and saying that they have my parcel) and a customs fee of over R300 (which is more than what I paid for the dress)! I was furious and decided to find another way t

DISCLAIMER: This is the exact process I followed. Many have said that this does not work for them. Although, since I had success with it, I wished to share it with my readers.   Hi guys, So, I know all of you have been waiting for this post for weeks (ever since I posted a picture of my Sephora delivery box on my Instagram stories)! The day has finally come where I show you how I shopped Sephora, via Aramex Global Shopper, to South Africa (this is also applicable for most of the other countries that Sephora does not ship to).  In January, this year my boyfriend was in New York, so you know your girl had a make-up wish list! Before he got to America I decided to sign-up for a beauty insider account on Sephora’s website. After purchasing all my make-up, my account hit VIB Rouge. GIRL, I WANTED TO CRY. While he was there I asked him to redeem some points since I knew it might not be possible for me to redeem it in South Africa, as Sephora doesn’t
