VIVID MATTE

MAYBELLINE!

VIVID MATTE LIQUID LIPSTICKS

SWATCHES & REVIEW!

Shop the collection online!

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!

OCTOBER EMPTIES

~ October Empties! ~

January / February / March / April / May / June / July / August / September

Wet Ones Be Fresh Original Antibacterial Hand & Body Wipes (Shop!)

These are awesome to have especially if you have grubby kids who somehow always seem to attract

a bucket load of germs. I have picked these up a few times during Beautyheaven's Beautorium and

with the much eagerly awaited event set to kick off again on the 23rd Nov, I cannot wait to pick up

a few new things to try!

Batiste Wild Dry Shampoo (Shop!)

Another great product thanks to Beautyheaven. This was one of the many products included in my

Blogstar award winning prize box back in 2013. Finally finished it and highly recommend it. Also

gave it a little mention in one of my previous favourites.

Vaseline Dry Skin Moisturiser

As you can probably tell by the packaging this is one oldie I am glad to finally finish. It was a good

product, but geez it took forever to use and the pump died some time ago which made the last few

weeks of it's life annoying me with having to dig around to find it a temporary lid. :/

Organic Care Soft Vanilla Shea Replenishing Hand Wash (Review!)

Another product picked up in the last Beautorium. A very family friendly handy product to have

around. The smell is my favourite feature of this product. I am a complete sucker for Vanilla and this

is just so yummy and it makes your hands feels so smooth and moisturised!

Hello Kitty Bubblegum Perfume Body Mist (Shop!)

Who doesn't love Hello Kitty? This body mist is just too cute and smells very girlie and sweet.

This is nice to day time touch ups or for lazy days around the house when I'm not too concerned

about the scent wearing away after a few hours.

Avon Clear Skin Blemish Clearing Foaming Cleanser

How many bottles am I up to with this product now? 5 or 6? I have mentioned this one before and

yep you guessed it, I am currently onto my next one and you will probably see it again next month.

This is so cheap only a few bucks and kills acne if you use it morning and night. Has worked amazing

for my skin!

Rimmel London Sexy Cuves Full Figure Mascara

Had this for a bit too long. Was a bit dry when I first got it so after adding a few drops of warm water

to it to bring some life back into it, it's now time to say see ya later. Was an alright mascara. I love the

shiny red packaging. :)

Maybelline The Falsies Volume Express Mascara (Shop!)

Another mascara I have decided needs to meet the bin. Honestly, I am pretty happy with most

mascaras I have ever tried and most are fairly similar and this one just sits amongst the average.

Colgate Advanced Whitening Toothpaste

Nothing special here either. We usually just purchase whatever is on special and I'm pretty sure this

one was. Sometimes I splash out on something more fancy and expensive, as does the hubby who

has terribly sensitive teeth. But this was just one to get the job done. Normal taste, minty & fresh.

Olay Regenerist Revitalising Hydration Cream Moisturiser (Shop!)

I have made my way through a few of these sample moisturisers and randomly found this one I

didn't realise I still had. Used it up in about 3 days. I am crazy obsessed with moisturising so this

was an easy one to use up. Was nice, not crazy smell. Just a white cream that soaked in pretty well.

I liked it. :) (Review!)

Nars Sheer Glow Foundation in Medium2 (Shop!)

After hearing soooo much hype around this product I was super excited to try this sample!

Nars is a luxury item to me and I only own one of their products, however after trying this, I really

want to own 2! Even though the consistency was really runny, this tiny sample lasted me about 4 or 5

applications!! It went such a long way and felt velvety smooth on my skin, was the perfect shade and

gave great coverage and made me look like a doll the the day! Love this!!! Want.Like.Now!

(Please Santa?)

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!

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!

(Full review of all products mentioned above coming soon if not linked already!)

GRWM

GET READY WITH ME!

Pop Of Colour!

I can't help but keep the love theme going with this Pop Of Colour make-up look as pink lips

are just my thing. Always my go to shade no matter what day, season or occasion it is! I am

just drawn to it. So recently when I received this shade in my BellaBox from Laqa & Co I was

thrilled and couldn't wait to play! I lined my lips first with one of my favourite lip liners from

ChiChi called Bimbo. A gorgeous hot pink which helped the Laqa & Co Menatour shade stay

firmly in place and really pop!

Because I felt like playing with a bit of colour, I pulled out my coloured ChiChi eye liners

which I hadn't used in quite a while. I applied both Disco Graffiti and Disco Royalty to my

top lash line over the top of my Maybelline Master Precise black liquid liner which actually looked

alright, however it doesn't seem to show up very well in photos. I don't normally apply liner to my

bottom lashes for day to day wear, however I applied both ChiChi colours and I am really happy

with the result. :) The shadows look quite natural and show up a little more understated in photos,
however the Maybelline ExpertWear eyeshadows I am wearing are actually my favourite right
now and I have been wearing this particular quad the most. If you're interested, you can watch
my make-up tutorial using four of the quads from the range here. :)

Of course (and I always say this) my make-up is nothing without a decent base.

To get this even, smooth finish I was a bit lazy and skipped on primer for no reason in particular.

I jumped right in a applied my Maybelline Better Skin Foundation with my Beauty Blender and

then went in under my eyes with the matching Maybelline Better Skin Concealer to conceal my

tired, sleep deprived eyes. Oh! And how can I forget my brows. I recently ran out of my Avon

brow pencil and have been switching between my Maybelline Brow Mascara and the one I've

used here which is actually an eye pencil by L'Oreal but both the formul and shade work

perfectly on my brows. It keeps them in place and looking groomed but still natural.

To complete my overall look, I have framed my face with my hair using my current obsession.

The VS Sasoon Evoke straightener which is this gorgeous pink which matches my lips to a tee!

The L'Oreal Elvive Extraordinary Oil does my hair so much good by calming down my fly aways,

frizz and makes my hair feel silky smooth and soft. Bottle of pure gold this stuff!

VDAY NAILS

~ VALENTINE'S DAY ~

(Last Minute!)

Nail Art Inspo!

Just one more sleep away before we all wake up to celebrate the day of love!

If you're stuck into your pampering tonight and need some nail inspo, then here is

my little input for you. However, if you're after some seriously creative attention grabbing

pointers, then I highly recommend checking out Pinterest, trush me the inspo there is

definitely not lacking! Just make sure you don't get too distracted gawking and forget to

actually paint your own! (Speaking from experience here!)

Featuring -

Fing'rs Heart 2 Art Embellish Me Nail Art Kit

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

Maybelline Color Show Nail Lacquer in 'Glitter It'

I painted each of my nails in the classic romantic red from Maybelline in

'Keep Up The Flame' and applied a few coats of 'Glitter It' over the top on my

signature nail for added glamour and romance.

The finish off this V'Day nail art, I applied 5 of the silver embellishments onto my

signature nail over the top of 'Glitter It' whilst it was still wet so as the polish dried it

made the little stones stick! I then used the end of an old liquid liner wand/brush (washed

of any black liner remains of course!) to dip into 'Glitter It' for just a tiny drop to make these

cute little red hearts stick to each of my remaining nails. :)

I love having my nails painted. They don't have to be fancy or professionally done.

Just having some colour on them makes me happy and lifts my mood.

What are you up to tonight? Are you doing any V'Day beauty prep?

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!
