SALLY HANSEN


SALLY HANSEN

Delicate Decadence Collection!

http://au.sallyhansen.com

I am one of those people who feel naked and 'not ready yet' unless my nails have been painted and 
I have some kind of makeup on before leaving the house. Even if it's just bb cream, lip balm and
mascara. Being a girl is the best fun and I love having the freedom and passion to be able to do these
things.

So if you're anything like me then you'll love these Sally Hansen 2-step gel nail polishes which are
made up of half regular nail lacquer and half gel formula which gives you the shine, bold colour and
long lasting result of an expensive professional gel manicure without the need for an LED light and
these are WAY easier to remove! They glide off just like normal nail polish which is much gentler on
your nails at the end of the day and keeps them strong and healthy.

This new collection of shades from the 'Delicate Decadence' collection consists of 6 shades.
Mauve-olous and Wine Stock (not pictured) as well as Plush Blush, Regal Rose, Pink Up and
Prince Char-mint. (Front top left to right pictured below)



These polishes give a beautiful shine even on their own without the gel top coat, however I have
found using the top coat makes all the difference in making these last twice as long and gives an
even higher glossier shine. Highly recommend not going without it!

Sally Hansen nail lacquers are available to purchase from Priceline, Priceline Pharmacy, Target,
Chemist Warehouse and Terry White Chemists Australia wide for a current RRP $16.95 each.

OPI WASHINGTON


O P I

Kerry Washington DC
Mini Collection

Fall/Winter 2016


I am a huge fan of OPI and their little mini packs! They are so cute and great to get a feel for the new
 shades they release and figure out weather it's worth purchasing one full size. This mini pack is a set
of four shades. Every now and then you will find OPI releases their mini collections in a range from
four, six or even ten different shades.

The four shades in this pack are called...
 'We The Female' - A blood cherry red. Sexy and powerful. This shade is my favourite!
'Pale To The Chief' - A barely there nude cream. Solid in colour, perfect for a classy occasion.
 'CIA = Color Is Awesome' - Bold, daring and mysterious! Love this rebel shade!
 'Never A Dulles Moment - Even bolder and more daring! Wear this shade to stand out in a crowd!

I love the red and pale pink shades and find myself reaching for these two shades the most!

There are a total of 15 shades you can find from this collection in their full size 15ml bottles.
The four shades mentioned above plus these ones below.

Stay Off The Lawn
Suzi - The First Lady Of Nails
Yank My Doodle
Freedom Of Peach
Squeaker Of The House
Shh... It's Top Secret!
Madam President
OPI By Popular Vote
Kerry Blossom
"Liv" In The Grey
Inside The ISABELLEtway



OPI nail polishes are great quality and worth the price! They dry quickly and the colour density is second to none. Always my first choice in lacquer. 

You can find OPI mini collections and all other full size shades available both online and in store at
Myer, David Jones and selected salons Australia wide.

The current RRP for this mini pack is $24.95
Pretty great value when you consider just one full size bottle of OPI retails for $19.95.

Are you a fan of the mini bottles?

KATE ANNIVERSARY


RIMMEL LONDON

Kate Moss

15th Anniversary Edition Lipstick Collection!


Always the sucker for a good lippie if you're anything like me then you'll love this collection of
classic red and nude shades by Rimmel London by Kate Moss. Each is a similar yet different shade
of pure classic elegance and mature poise. Can you believe Kate has been an iconic face for Rimmel
since 2001? Wow!

The formula is a lovely smooth soft finish with a hint of shine that lasts! Believe me those swatches
(see images below) were not an easy feat to remove! 


To break it down as to how these mix of red and nude shades are actually different. Let me give you
my take on each shade. With my personal favourites being 'Rock N Roll Nude' and 'Retro Red'.

Rock N Roll Nude - This is your classy nude shade with pinky undertones. 
Retro Red - Your classic deep berry Autumn tone.
My Nude - Another classic nude shade with pinky undertones, but less than Rock N Roll Nude.
Muse Red - A middle toned classic red with orange undertones.
Boho Nude - This is your basic brown mid toned nude shade.
Idol Red - This bold red to me seems borderline orange. It's like a half orange half red mixed.

SWATCHES! - Left to right : Idol Red / Boho Nude / Muse Red / My Nude / Retro Red / Rock N' Roll Nude

SWATCHES! - Top to bottom : Idol Red / Boho Nude / Muse Red / My Nude / Retro Red / Rock N' Roll Nude

These and all Rimmel London products can be found and purchased Australia wide from Priceline,
Big W, Coles, Target, Woolies and Chemist Warehouse for current RRP $13.95 each.

Another pic, because everybody loves pretty makeup flatlays! :)
And... that rose gold casing though! Ooohh!

Are you a red or nudes kind of lippie girl?

VIVID MATTE


MAYBELLINE!

VIVID MATTE LIQUID LIPSTICKS

SWATCHES & REVIEW!

My lipstick collection is by far the largest of all my makeup products. From satin and gloss,
sheer and matte in both solid and liquid formation. I love them all dearly. Lippie addiction is
very real and I am not ashamed to admit I have kind of a problem. I love to have all of the shades
available in each collection I own. The latest being these gorgeous matte beauties from Maybelline.

From their perfectly solid, stackable rectangular shapes, creamy smooth formula and strikingly
bold and confident shades, these have even gotten me questioning my previous hesitation towards
nude shades which I previously thought washed me out. Somehow Maybelline have got the balance
just right for my skin tone and the nudes from this collection actually work for me! I can hardly 
believe myself!

Shades include - (Top to Bottom)
Posessed Plum / Berry Boost / Fuchsia Ecstasy / Rebel Red / Orange Shot / Electric Pink / Nude
Flush / Nude Thrill

In terms of longevity these are pretty tough and last a few hours before waring away. The matte 
looks non drying and bold in pigment.  

See how the swatches look in real life!

These and all other Maybelline products can be found in your local Priceline, K-Mart, Coles, Big W,
Myer, Woolies, Terry White, Price Attack, Chemist Warehouse & National Pharmacy as well as online.

Some of my other most recent Maybelline product loves included below!

PROVOCALIPS


RIMMEL LONDON
PROVOCALIPS

SWATCHES & REVIEW!


Lipsticks have to be one of my biggest weaknesses. I have especially fallen in love with liquid lippies
over the past few years and have quite a few different varieties in my collection of all kinds of shades
and finishes. 

This two step collection glide on like buttery silk and together with the moisturising balm attached to
the other end of the doe foot applicator it keeps my lips feeling smooth and soft throughout the whole
day with the colour also lasting the distance. 


You gotta love when companies bring out a collection where there is always a shade to suit everyone.
I love these because there is such a great variety of shade suitable for both day and night. Special 
event or just slick on before going out to do the shopping!

From deep dark sexy berry and red tones, there is also my signature bright magenta pink as well as 
the very 'now' nude shades as well as an understated your lips only better barely there touch of pink.

Available in a total of 8 shades. I currently have these 6. :)


These liquid lipsticks are very affordable as well. You can pick these up currently on sale at Priceline
with 40% off at only $11.37! Also available to purchase at Big W, Coles, Woolworths, Chemist
Warehouse and Target.

Swatches below shades from left to right are -
Dare To Pink / Skinny Dipping / Make Your Move / Little Minx / Play With Fire / Not Guilty
Also available in "I'll Call You" & "Kiss Me You Fool" (Not Shown)

NEW LIPSTICKS






~  RIMMEL LONDON  ~
Moisture Renew Sheer & Shine Lipsticks!


I love makeup and when new products come along it is very exciting and fun for myself and beauty
lovers alike. But when it comes to lipsticks, my weakness when it comes to makeup I get weak at the
knees. My lipstick draw in my makeup collection is so bright and colourful it makes even the most
dark and dreary mornings better and lifts my mood. Playing with shades, texture and different 
creative packing - I'm like a kid in a candy store!

These six brand new shades, each perfectly suitable year round in my opinion and each shade 
cleverly selected as the most popular and most worn classic hues world wide.
Starting from top left - Red-y Set, Go! / Spin All Spring / Woke Up Like This / Better & Brighter / 
Glow-Rious Pink / Pink Rules

This is the kind of selection of shades where everyone has their go-to. Mine being wearable pink.
Then there are those who always wear red or coral or nude. All are within this collection.

The shades are actually quite sheer with the pinks being especially subtle but still buildable if you are
after a bit more colour. My pout swatches below are coming up a bit brighter with the flash on. They
are almost like a tinted balm with all six shades containing a lovely hint of shimmer in them. Very
beautiful and recommended for that more natural I'm not wearing any makeup, makeup look.

Starting top left - Spin All Spring  / Better & Brighter / 
Glow-Rious Pink / Woke Up Like This / Pink Rules / Red-y Set, Go!

Left to right - Better & Brighter, Woke Up Like This, Glow-Rious Pink, Pink Rules, Red-y Set, Go!, 
Spin All Spring

I am loving the simple and feminine silver and pink casings. Totally my style and the colours
are truly beautiful and feel super smooth upon application.
These new Sheer & Shine lippies can be purchased from all the regular places where Rimmel 
London is normally found like Priceline, Big W, Woolies, Coles, Chemist Warehouse & Target.
RRP $13.95 each!

What do you think of this new collection of Rimmel London lippies?
