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!)

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!)

FEBRUARY EMPTIES

~ February Empties! ~

Well wasn't that a short month?! I can't believe February is already over. I had forgotten

there was only 28 days this month! I had a questionable looking freakle removed from my

stomach on Friday, so needless to say I am more than happy to let this month go and move on!

I feel like I got through a lot of products this month. Probably more than I ever have,

so I am exciting to bin all of this stuff and start fresh for March and maybe pick up a few

newbies to reward my efforts. Cos that's just what I need.... more stuff!

It's a vicious cycle and a hard core addiction. No, I don't need help.

Much...

Full Size!

Garnier Anti-Ageing Brightening Toner

I have always had good experiences with Garnier products and I loved this one too.

Tightened my pores and removed excess makeup like a pro!

Garnier Fructis Anti-Frizz Smoothing Serum

This reminds me of my L'Oreal Extraordinary Oil as the formula is the same and they

both work brillantly. This is just a slightly more affordable option. I recommend it.
Review! (Buy!)

Pantene Pro-V Daily Moisture Renewal Shampoo

I liked this, as always it makes my hair feel nice and soft, smooth and moisturised.

I prefer a prettier packaged and more interesting smelling product when it comes

to shampoo though.
Review! (Buy!)

Pantene Pro-V All Day Smooth Light Weight Creme

This product detangles your hair. I didn't really need it, but it was light weight

and made my hair smell nice inbetween washes. (Buy!)

Pure Zone Foot Therapy Exfoliating Foot Scrub

This had a nice and light Tea Tree and Eucalyptus scent to it which was refreshing.

However the 'scrub' was pretty much non exsistent and didn't do a whole lot of scrubbing.

Vaseline Intensive Care Hand & Nail Lotion

My nails tend to split and get quite soft it I don't use some kind of nail hardening

product. This made them much stronger and my skin felt nourished when I used this.

Dove Nourishing Oil Care Nutri-Oil Serum

Much the same as the Garnier Fructis & L'Oreal Extraordinary Oil, this hair serum

combats frizz and makes hair appear shiny and sleek without weighing it down or making

it greasy. Really enjoyed this one as well. (Buy!)

Nailene Clear Top Coat

This was a great clear top coat. Nothing negative to say. Did the job so I would

happily re-purchase. (Buy!)

NP Set Black Mascara

Handy, easy to use mascara. A nice dark black shade with a fuss free wand which

coated my lashes with easy without clumping or drying out. Have used this to death! (Buy!)

Mitchum Pure Fresh Clinical Deodorant

Brilliant deodorant! This reminds me of my all time fav, the Rexona Clinical.

Both give 48hr protection and actually live up to their claims. Worth the exxey price tag!
Review! (Buy!)

Sample Tubes/Bottles!

Goldwell Kerasilk Shampoo & Conditioner

I often get bored using the same shampoo & conditioner every single time I wash my hair,

so I tend to use something different for each wash. This was a nice change and happy to get

rid of a few more sample bottles. This was nice and I would happily purchase full size.

Joico K-Pak Revitaluxe Treatment

Very luxe to use and I really did notice a difference in my hair straight away after

blow drying. A real hair treat! (Buy!)

Pantene Pro-V Daily Moisture Renewal Conditioner

I enjoyed using this along with the shampoo bottle, however I am looking forward to moving

on to another brand for a while.
Review! (Buy!)

Pantene Pro-V Aqua Light Conditioner

Nice, would purchase full size once I run out of the 123,758493 other bottles

of conditioner I currently own. Sheesh! (Buy!)

Nivea Men Clear Effect Gel Moisturiser

Stole this one off hubby who wasn't into using it. The scent was really strong

and manly, but I didn't mind it and the gel texture was fun. It did make my skin

feel a little tight afterwards so I found myself applying a facial moisturiser over the top.

MOR Body Butter in 'Lychee Flower'

Super stong scent, but oh so gorgeous! Beautiful body butter. Want MOR!
(Buy!)

Sample Sachets!

WEN Sweet Almond Mint Cleansing Conditioner

This was my first time using any kind of product from WEN. I received this in a recent

Bellabox and was looking forward to trying it as I've heard rave reviews about it and it is

quite expensive to buy full size. However I couldn't really get into it. It didn't lather which I

perfer when washing my hair. I'm just not into shampoo & conditioners combined.

Ayana Organics Baby Butter

This was a nice and very thick cream. Smelt lovely too.

Maybelline Better Skin Foundation

Already had this full size, but received this in a previous Bellabox.

Love it and use it regularly!
Review! (Buy!)

Natio Renew Line & Wrinkle Day Cream SPF 15

Loved this! I'm not sure how much it did for my lines and wrinkles as it is hard to tell

with a small sachet, however it smelt divine and I enjoyed using it. (Buy!)

Avon Advance Techniques Moroccan Argan Oil

Felt oily in my hands but didn't make my hair oily. I liked this and is the same

as any other hair oil already mentioned in this empties post.

Avon Advance Techniques Daily Shine Conditioner

Had to use this with more conditioner from another bottle as the sachet just didn't

contain enough for one hair wash. But seemed nice enough.

Avon ANEW Vitale Night Cream

I love using night creams, so this was a nice different one to try for a little

change. Would have to use long term to see results though.

Sanctum Hydrating Gel Mask

Use many facial masks this month. Or so it felt! I have been getting into the habit

of lathering one on and then bathing the kids whilst it sits there and dries.

I received this in one of my Beauty Native Boxes which I highly recommend

checking out for some more lovely products like this!

Eslor Firming Collagen Day Cream

Received a few of these samples in one of my Violet Boxes and am really

enjoying the brand.

Eslor Chlorophyll Lifting Mask

Another nice mask which made me feel nice and pampered.

My skin felt so smooth and fresh after this one!

Eslor Botanical Peeling Gel

This gel is actually an exfoliant which I found quite interesting.

I don't think I've ever used a gel the same as this one. An interesting product.

Again, hard to tell how beneficial it was though with just one sample.

Sukin Purifying Facial Masque

This one was probably my favourite. Sukin is one of my all time fav skin care

brands to date and their masques are worth a try!
Review! (Buy!)

Zk'in Certified Organic Line Smoothing Serum

I have been hearing a lot about this brand lately and was happy to receive a few samples

in my recent Bellabox. This serum was really nice and I am looking forward to using the

second one up!

Total Month's Empties!

What's In My Everyday Makeup Bag!

I know my fellow beauty lovers out there won't judge me for hoarding around so many essential everyday beauty products, so all you others out there, don't judge me, I need the, all, everyday, no seriously! ;)

So if you're keen to delve in, grab a coffee or tea or beverage and snack of your choice, ignore any distractions and get comfy, this is going to be a lengthy post!

Somehow I manage to fit all of my day to day makeup in this tiny little Sally Hansen bag I was actually lucky enough to win off their Facebook page last year with some of their nail polish. A skill many clever, beautiful women know how to master. Right ladies? ;)
