MAY FAVS

MAY FAVOURTIES!

Human & Kind Wash Off Cleanser

I have been using this all month and I think my skin is rejoycing! I love the formula and unique way

of using it with the ultra soft and gentle wash off cloth supplied. A truely beautiful product I

recommend giving a go if you're on the market for a new cleanser especially if you have sensitive

skin! (REVIEW!)

TRESemme Platinum Strength Leave In Treatment

I think I have mentioned this in my favourites quite a number of times! I am that passionate about it!

My hair needs extra strength and especailly even more now since I have been having it lightened.

The Tresemme Platinum Strength range in general and this product in particular just makes my hair

feel like virgin hair all over again in an instant by giving it it's strength back as well as adding shine

and softness. (REVIEW!)

Rimmel London 9 in 1 BB Cream

Huge, huuuuge fan of this BB Cream! I have tried about a billion BB Creams and this one is

definitely up there. Suprisingly the coverage is actually brilliant! It is even better than some of my

foundations can you believe. I put it down to the 9 in 1 formula as it does everything. I especially am

a fan of it's ability to conceal my pores and acts as the perfect foundation base or primer. (REVIEW!) (BUY!)

Physicians Formula Organic Wear Mascara

Ahh, just look at this mascara's packaging?! I recently received this gorgeous looking product in my

Priceline gift with purchase makeup goodie bag and omg, it is soooo nice! It makes my eyes pop and

doesn't clump up my lashes or make them look all spidery and un-natural. It has lovely short bristles

which make it perfect for those tricky bottom lashes as well. (BUY!)

Essie Polish in 'Pink About It' & 'A Cut Above'

I have been obsessed with Essie polish lately and these two have fast become my go-to favs!

Baby pink in general is my go-to shade for polish anyway and 'Pink About It' combine with

'A Cut Above' just adds a special kind of glam and girlyness to my nails which I just love!

Puretopia Sensitive Care Protective Moisturiser

I have previously tried another Puretopia facial moisturiser which was equally great don't get me

wrong. However, this Sensitive Care version is perfect for this time of the year when my skin is

prone to being a little moody and sensitive from the cold weather and change in seasons. My

skin feels extra taken care of and feels a lot calmer when I use this! (BUY!)

Maybelline New York Expertwear Eyeshadow Quad in 'Mocha Motion'

Another go-to product is this Maybelline quad. The shades here act as the perfect everyday eye

collection and are appropriate to wear both day and night. These shades can be build up and

give you a killer smokey effect when smudged together. I especially love using the bottom liner

shade as a smudgy eye liner. You could stop traffic I am telling you! ;) (MAKEUP TUTORIAL!)

Australian Bush Flower Essences Love System Intensive Eye Serum

I have noticed especially over the past 3-5 years my eye area definitely needing a bit of love!

This skin treatment for your eyes is going to last forever! The bottle size compared to the tiny

amound needed for the eye area is amazing and is feels, smells and give real results. I have been

using this for a few months now and I can already see the lines around my eyes have tightened

and faded slightly!! Made from actual rose stem cells as one of it's ingredients, I just love that

clever concept! (REVIEW!)

Natio Eyeshadow Trio in 'Illuminate'

This is another product I picked up when I received the Priceline goodie bag. (Actually my

husband picked it out as it was my Mother's Day present!) It is actually an eyeshadow trio,

however I have been using it on my cheeks as a highlighter/blush/illuminiator. It is incredibly

pretty, I just adore the soft pinks! (BUY!)

Scunci Hair Accessories Braided Black Hair Ties

My hair is thick and can be totally unruley. Especially in the mornings when it appears to

have had a life of it's own (Partying hard I suspect by the looks of it!) whilst I have slept.

So to have these Scunci thick and strong hair ties on hand to sort it out so I can sort myself

out during my busy mornings as a mum is a must! I can just rely on these to get my hair

out of the way when I am in a hurry and I can be as rough as I like and there is no way

ever these are going to break on me. They are brilliant!

Well, I know this post is super late!

I aim to have my June favs up later today so then I will be completely caught up again!

PRICELINE

~ PRICELINE ~

Goodie Bag!

(Gift with purchase over $60+!)

http://www.priceline.com.au

This has got to be in my opinion one of the best GWP offers I have seen from Priceline or anywhere
else for that matter for quite some time. Usually, even though I would love to buy every single goodie
bag which comes along, I am pretty good at controling myself and keeping my spending habits under
control. I am after all on a strict culling with my Project Pan trying to de-clutter the masses which
have completely taken over every inch of space in my bathroom. Oops!

However, when I saw this GWP advertised I was instantly drawn to the baby pink make-up bag with
the super cute, adorable white & gold bow! Completely and utterly my taste and I knew I simply
could not resist this time. Dammit, I have been SO good, I deserve this treat!

So with Mother's Day just gone, on the lead up I made it clear what I wanted to be gifted. ;)
My hubby was very clever in convincing me he couldn't get it saying he went to Priceline and they
were all sold out. Trying not to get my hopes up I tried not to think too much about it as he had come
home with a beautiful bunch of Tulips (my fav flower) instead.
So I was happy with that. Who doesn't love been given fresh flowers?!

Then Mother's Day morning came and with the four of us in bed (we have a almost 4yr & almost 2yr
old) I was given a massive, stunninly wrapped in pink with silver butterfy tissue paper and clear celo
complete with 2 balloons. One saying 'Happy Mother's Day' the other a bright pink star and two
cards. One from the hubby and one written by my eldest, from her and my youngest. Too cute!

Anyway, needless so say I was so surprised and overwhelmed as this busy SAHM does not get to be
spoilt like this often. So I was very grateful!

On with the goodies!!!

Apparently hubby thinks I have a nail polish obsession or something. Whatever could have given him
that idea? Could be the 1756384,85400 bottles I have which I have absolutely not need/room for?
Thanks for not understanding but loving me enough to buy me 10 bottles more anyway! lol

(Polish Names - Left to Right!)

Sally Hansen Triple Shine in #340 Scale Up
Sally Hansen Xteme Wear in #610 Rock Chic (Buy!)
Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in #220 Celeb City (Buy!)
Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear #423 Blue Boom (Buy!)
Essie Nail Lacquer in Trophy Wife (Buy!)
Essie Nail Lacquer in Jamaica Me Crazy (Buy!)
Essie Mini Nail Lacquer in Mademoiselle
Essie Mini Nail Lacquer in Fifth Avenue
Essie Mini Nail Lacquer in Mint Candy Apple
Revlon Perfumerie in Pink Pineapple

Once he thought he had stocked up on enough nail polish to last me the century, he told me he didn't
want to just get me nail polish but was lost on what else to get. So the sales assistant at Priceline
lead him over to the Natio stand and recommended these two items.

Natio Mineral Eyeshadow Trio in 'Illuminate' (Buy!) & Natio Heavenly Eyes Mineral Eyeshadow in 'Jade Diva' (Buy!)

Overall, I am so happy with everything, however if I am honest I would have picked out completely
different items for the qualifing $60 spend, but who cares, I love everything and it was so sweet of
him to go shopping by himself in Priceline with no shame and purchase a basket full of cosmetics for
me! (Love him!)

Oh and this gorgeous pink body sponge! (Buy!)

MARCH FAVS

~ MARCH FAVOURITES! ~

So many new goodies landed on my desk this month in addition to a bunch of newbies I purchased!

It was one super busy month both personally and professionally and I fear (in a good way) that it is

only going to get even busier! I am looking forward to the rest of 2015 and cannot wait to look back

on it all once this year comes to an end. I am sure it will continue to no doubt fly by!

I hope you'll continue to read as I share with you some products I am loving and recommend if you

feel like a bit of retail therapy or online indulgence! :)

Argan+ Super Creamy Body Wash

Not only does this smell subtle, yet creamy and yummy, it feels like a velvet, bubbly dream on your

skin. I have been absolutely loving this and the gold and turquoise tube, omg, LOVE!

Coast To Coast Ultra Gentle Facial Polish

I can't enough of scrubs and exfoliators. I just enjoy using them so much as they always leave me

skin feeling smooth and renewed by removing all of the build up of dead skin. This one is my

current love. Check out my full demo and review in the video here!

Guess Dare Perfume

Guess is such a classic, timeless brand and their perfumes always delight the senses. The new release

smells beautifully floral but isn't overpowering at all. I love the baby pink shade and the feminine

and girlie scent lasts the whole day. (Buy!)

Australian Bush Flower Essences Face Wash Serum

Facial Wash Serum's are new to me, but I have been loving this! It smells so natural (because

it is) and completely relaxes me and takes me right back to nature.

Full Review Here!

Too Faced Sweethearts Perfect Flushed Blush in 'Candy Glow'

Beyond cute, this blush is 100% completely me! I am loving gold accents at the moment, weather

it's in make-up packaging or decor, it is my new thing. This 3 toned beauty is to die for!

Check it out in my recent haul video here!

Physicians Formula Nude Wear Bronzer Quad

Why on earth I have never purchased anything from Physicians Formula before is beyond me!
Their products are BEAUTIFUL! Omg, their packaging (I am all about cuteness!) is gorgeous!

I recently picked this baby up for less than half price and I am so glad I did! The shades give you

the most perfect sun kissed, stunning glow! Highly, highly recommend this! Just about everything

else from them is currently on my wish list! (Buy!)

TanOrganic Bronzing Powder Duo

Completely matte chocolate brown on one half and a medium shimmery shade on the other.

Everything you need to get through the Winter this will keep you looking sun kissed and glowing.

If you like the sound of this and would like the chance to win one then make sure to enter my

GIVEAWAY by watching my video demo and review here! (Good Luck!)

OPI Nail Lacquer in 'Suzi Shops & Island Hops'

The perfect baby pink! I love this kind of shade for everyday wear. It's girlie and feminine and looks

amazing on, especially with lightly (fake) tanned skin. It really makes the colour pop and look bold.

Just gorgeous, I am totally chugging through this bottle! (Buy!)

Maybelline Color Drama Intense Velvet Lip Pencil in 'Fuchsia Desire'

This new range from Maybelline seems to be everybody's favourite lately! I caved and purchased

a classic hot pink which is a shade I wear a lot. I don't usually show much interest in lip pencils,

however this on is much bolder in colour than I expected and the formula glides on like a dream!

Pleasantly surprised with this product! (Buy!)

All over red rover!

VALENTINES MAKEUP

~ VALENTINE'S DAY MAKE-UP!

With the day of love just two short days away I figured my Valentine's Day themed
week wouldn't be complete without at least one make-up inspo post!

So here goes!

Products used to create my face...

BASE

Rimmel London Lasting Finish Primer

Maybelline Dream Wonder Foundation

Maybelline Super Stay Concealer

Physicians Formula Bronze Booster

Benefit Benefit

Nothing looks quite as good without a perfect base.

This is probably the most important part of my whole look.

If your skin looks great, then everything else is just icing on the cake!

EYES

Maybelline Color Tattoo in Barely Branded

Maybelline Eye Studio Gel Liner in Black

Bloom Liquid Liner in Black

Maybelline Big Eyes Waterproof Mascara in Black

Maybelline Brow Drama Mascara in Dark Brown

Coastal Scents Eye Shadow Palette Sampler

The eyes are the window to your soul. So make them bright, awake and sparkling!

I love lots of lashes, a wing for a bit of drama and sass and natural tones to enhance

and bring out my dark eyes.

LIPS

Australis Velourlips Matte Lip Colour in HO-CHEE-MIN

Maybelline Electro Pop Baby Lips Balm in 'Pink Shock'

Love me a barbie pink pout! My fav lip look! :)

NAILS

Maybelline Color Show Nail Lacquer in 'Keep Up The Flame'

Can't go wrong with a good old classic red!

I'm loving this one, just look how shiny it is without a top coat!

So there you have it! A simple, little bit glam make-up look for Valentine's Day!

Weather you're going to be spending it with your other half, friends, kids or even your pet!

I hope everyone has the chance to show the ones we love how much they mean to us. xx

JANUARY FAVOURITES

~ January Favourites ~

2015!

What a crazy month January is! New years and many birthdays including my own! :)
It's such a happy month (apart from the dreadfully steamy weather!) as it means holidays,
family time and relaxing! I love it!

Here are the products I've been loving the most during the start of the new year!
Plenty of Summery looking items, I realize now that I am looking at the pic above.
Guess that's just how it goes when the weather heats up. You gotta find product
that work with the seasons. There is always an overwhelming variety to choose from
so I will share with you the ones which have worked for me which are obviously my
January Favourites!
:)

Makeup/Nails

Physicians Formula Bronze Booster
I have been using this ever so sparingly (as I don't want to ruin the intricate sun imprint)
on the highest point on my cheek bones for a little sun kissed effect.
This bronzer is so beautiful!
Read my full review here!
http://www.physiciansformula.com/en.au

Laura Mercier Moisture Supreme Foundation
Even though this foundation is still a bit dark for my skin tone, (I explain how I lighten it to
match my current skin tone here.) I cannot stop going back to it as the forumulation just does an
amazing job and is so different to all of my other foundations. It just makes my skin look so good
and I really enjoy applying this as it's a dream to work with.

Nicole By OPI in 'Some Hearts'

If you follow me on Instagram, Facebook or Twitter then you'll know I have been loving this
hue this month, which I recieved in my Girlfriend's The Parcel since it is the month of love and all! ;)
The coral/pinky/red (somewhere inbetween those shades!) is such a perfect Summer colour!
It fits in perfectly with all of my Summer dresses, short shorts and lose bold coloured tops
and various white pieces. (I love wearing lots of white in Spring/Summer!)

http://www.nicolebyopi.com.au

Skin

Paula's Choice Sun 365 Self-Tanning Foam
I have been working on building up my tan to match the weather with this lately and am
totally in love! There is absolutely no weird scent to this and it drys super fast!
Stay tuned for a full review coming soon!

Paula's Choice RESIST Youth Extending Daily Mattifying Fluid

I have been using this on it's own on days when I am home and not wearing makeup and
mixed in with my Laura Mercier Moisture Supreme Foundation on days I am out and about.
It keeps my skin from looking shiny at the end of the day and still contains SPF to protect
my skin from the sun. Creates the illusion of peeeerfect skin!

Hair

Natural World Coconut Water Weightless Hair Oil
Recently I decided I'd have enough of my hair. It was getting way too long.
(Just past the tip of my butt!) Add that to it being thick and frizzy wizzy and it was
annoying as hell so I gave myself the chop and literally cut half of it off before I
showered one night! It isn't really all that shocking as I usually always cut my own hair
and it feels so much lighter and a whole lot more managable now! This product has been
a great treat at giving my new hair lengh some TLC. The difference in appearance and feeling
has turned me nto one of those annoying people who constantly touch their hair!
Stay tuned for a full review coming soon!

Scunci Everyday & Active No Damage Reflective Hair Elastics

Such a basic, everyday item, yet one I had to mention! These keep me sane in many ways!
One, because there are so many in this pack so if I loose one, who cares I have a million
spare! Two, they are snagless so they don't get all caught up in my hair causing knots and pain!
Three, the 3 different varient in design you see in the pic above are actually reflective and light
up in the dark like a bike safety light! They're so cool! :)
