Alpha-H Review

Everyone has heard of the Aplha-H Liquid Gold! It is one of the most famous skin care products that there is! I did some research on the brand and I needed to try everything out. All of their products look amazing, I got to test out 3 products! Of course one of them being the liquid gold! The other two products that I tried were the Balancing Cleanser and the Essential Hydration Cream. 

Trefiel Face Mask Review

I first found out about Trefiel via Instagram! Their Instagram page is stunning so I needed to know more about the brand.

Beginners Makeup Kit

Today I went through all of my makeup and picked out all of the things I thought would go amazing in a makeup kit for beginners! This is not a post about everything you need, because honestly you don't need any makeup at all if you don't want it!

Sunday Routine!

On Sundays I really like to treat my skin and use face masks and extra moisturizers! I think it is very important to treat your skin and pay some extra attention to it sometimes! I designate this to Sunday! Every other day of the week I use face wash and moisturizer that is it! I do not do this ever Sunday as sometimes I just can not be bothered! However, when I am in the mood to have a play with face masks and scrubs I pull out this routine!

Foundation Run Down!

Foundation is such a personal item! It has to match your skin colour and skin texture. Finding what works for you is very hard and takes a lot of time and many trials and errors! Here is everything I went through to find a foundation that works for me!

Charlotte's Lab

Charlotte is a lovely qualified cosmetic chemist. She has worked for many skincare and beauty companies. She loved her job but had a desire to make homemade products! So that is what she has done! Charlotte has created so many amazing products that have all been formulated, produced and sold by her! I was lucky enough to get in touch with her and I got to test out some of her products! Here are my thoughts.

Skinstitut Review!

I recently took the Skinstitut 5 a day consultation. This is a little quiz about your skin and they type of products you need. After you have taken the quiz you are shown the 5 different skin care products you need to keep your skin clean and healthy. I then got the 5 products that were suggested to me and I tried them out! Here are my thoughts on the consultation and the products!

Coral Colours Mascara

Recently I tried out this Coral Colours Lavish Lash Argan Oil Mascara. The colour is very black and the mascara wand is a small, thin plastic wand. It is very easy to use and is amazing for your lower lashes. This mascara claims to lengthen and condition your lashes while giving you long, luxurious lashes.

TBX Brushes

The Beauty Exchange is a Melbourne based brand. They sell makeup brushes, hair products and accessories. I have the magnetic rectangle brush holder, some makeup brushes and a makeup bag! The brushes have are magnetic so the stand up on the magnetic brush holder. This creates a lovely display for your makeup brushes.

My first interview!

Today I went to my first interview. For a few months I have been applying to every job I have seen, I got a call on Tuesday afternoon asking if I was still interested in the job and if I wanted to attend a group interview. Of course I said yes as I was yet to hear back from any other jobs I had applied too.

First Impressions: Avene Tolerance Extreme Cream

This is a new moisturizer that contains only eight ingredients. This helps to hydrate the skin without leaving any sticky residue. I was very excited to try this out as I have used the same moisturizer for quite awhile and mixing it up is always good. This is a moisturizer for people with dry to very dry skin!

Sparrow Soap!

Recently I was sent these lovely soaps! I am not much of a block soap user, I prefer a body wash. However, as soon as I opened the parcel this was sent in I needed to try these! When I opened the parcel I smelt this amazing mint and lemon scent! I quickly took some photos and chucked the lemongrass soap into the shower as it was my favourite of the scents! That night when I went for a shower I tried out the soap! It is so moisturizing and soft! The scent also lasts on your skin which is so amazing!

OM She Aromatherapy Pure Magic Primer

I have been on the look out for a new primer recently! When I was contacted and asked if I wanted to try this OM SHE Aromatherapy primer out I just couldn't resit! The packaging is sleek and black. It states that this primer minimizes the appearance of pores, helps control shine and also helps your makeup last longer. This product also contains Vitamin E to help protect and hydrate the skin.

Spectrum Brushes!

I recently got the Attention Seeker 10 piece essential set from Spectrum. I discovered these brushes via Instagram! They are very beautiful and look extremely soft! I had to get my hands on some. I loved the look of the pink, blue and purple together! Can anyone resist these brushes?

Things I want to do in September!

6 Products I Will Always Repurchase!

Here are 6 of my favourite products, that I have repurchased countless times and will continue to repurchase because they are so amazing! I don't usually like to buy the same product twice unless I really love it because there are so many makeup items around why not try all the ones I get the chance too! However, these are the items that don't apply to that rule!

Models Prefer Run Down!

I received this lovely set of makeup from one of my friends so I decided to do a run down on the brand as I have never really experimented with their makeup before. Here are my thoughts on a few of their products!
 

Everyday Makeup!

I don't wear makeup everyday however when I am looking for something super fast that gives a little bit of coverage and adds some volume to my eyelashes this is what I tend to do! I only use 4 products. Concealer, eyebrow pencil, mascara and a lipstick.

Makeup Wish List!

For the longest time I have been seeing makeup items and just adding them to my wish list. This has led to me not actually buying the things I really want because my makeup wish list is so long and I just don't know where to start. Today I thought I would change that, I have made a realistic list of makeup items I really want and think I would use a lot! This list isn't the popular makeup items that are around or the hundreds of eyeshadow palettes I think I need! These are the items I truly hope to save up for!

First Impressions | Covergirl Ready Set Gorgeous Foundation

Here is a first impression on the Covergirl foundation I picked up yesterday! I know this product was released ages ago I just never got my hands on it! I thought I may as well do a first impressions post because some of you may still be thinking about if it worth it! Priceline had a 50% off sale so I got this for around $9.

Beechworth Honey Skin Care Range!

It was recently my birthday! My parents bought me some of the Beechworth Honey skin care, I thought I may as well do a review of the products I now own! I first saw these in Woolworths and really wanted to try them out, though never got around to actually purchasing them! I have been to Beechworth, which is in Victoria, Australia. They make really delicious honey (the only honey I eat!) When I saw the skin care I knew I had to try it!!

Making The Cut!

Finally I decided to cut my hair!! It was such a huge decision! I thought the day after my birthday that I really wanted something different! I went in and booked the soonest appointment and that's when it happened! I had my hair cut and coloured!!

August Goals!

I have recently set a few goals for August! These are the goals I have set and hope to achieve. Most of these are goals for my blog! However there are a few random goals throughout this post!

If I Could Only Keep 10 Makeup Items!

This is a list of the 10 makeup items I would keep if I could only have 10 pieces of makeup! Which would be hell! How can you only have 10 makeup items!! I need 10 lipsticks just so I have a nice diverse range of shades!! However I did find a way to choose 10 items that I would keep!!

Brisbane Haul!

These are a few of the things I bought when I was in Brisbane. As most of you know I went to Brisbane for holidays I had a great time and even got to fit in a little time for shopping!

Sneaky Squirrel Coffee Scrub!

This is a Jaffa Coffee and Nuts face and body scrub! I love body scrubs, personally I have never tried a coffee scrub until now! I don't particularly like the smell of coffee so as soon as I opened this I was a bit shocked and overwhelmed! However, once you have this on your body and have scrubbed it off the smell is beyond amazing!!

It Cosmetics!

Trying out It Cosmetics! I tried a foundation and concealer. A few eyebrow products. An amazing face palette, a lip liner and an eyeliner! Here is what I thought about all of these products.

Maybelline Baby Skin Review!

Since this first came out I have been really curious to try it!! It sounds like such an amazing idea and a great product! The packaging is super cute and who wouldn't want skin like a baby!! That sounds amazing! Here's what I thought about this product!

What's In My Travel Makeup Bag

Currently I am on holidays. We got 4 weeks school holidays and I flew to Queensland to see friends and family. I thought this would be a perfect time to show you what makeup products I take with me when I go on holiday!

Sunday Night Time Routine

On Sunday I usually go for a more in depth skin care routine! I keep my everyday skin care very simple and easy. You can view my everyday skin care HERE.  On Sunday I use an acne cleanser and pore strips. I also use a face mask. I choose to do my in depth skin care on Sunday as it sets my skin up for the week! I have somewhat sensitive skin so using these products all week would be to harsh for my skin.

Biore Face Mask Review!

I recently purchased this self heating one minute face mask from Biore. I was really intrigued because I have never used a self heating face mask before! I was very curious as to what it would feel like on my skin!

My current favourite makeup!

These are the products that I've been absolutely in love with! The foundation I have fallen in love with in L'oreal True Match! I have also been loving this Stila eyeshadow palette a lot lately! I finally tried a new eyebrow pencil and it is really amazing!

My Perfume Collection!

My perfume collection mainly consists of celebrity perfumes! I love perfume, scent is something that reminds me of good times! Whenever I go on a cool holiday or i'm doing something really exciting I like to wear a different perfume! So that whenever I smell that specific perfume against it will remind me of that time! Here are the perfumes I own!

How I Deal With Acne!

I've had far from perfect skin for quite a few years now! It's horrible and I hate it! Though its something a lot of people go through! I feel like it is talked about a lot but everyones skin is different so getting an opinion from everyone is great! These are a few really simple tips that i've found have helped! I am yet to completely clear my skin, in fact I don't think I will ever have perfect skin! These few things have been very helpful at reducing the pimples and redness I get on my face!

The Best Mascaras!!

Here is a list of my top 4 favourite mascaras of all time!! These are the mascaras I always go back to and can totally rely on! These are lovely, lengthening and extremely black! What more could you want in a mascara right!?

Instagram accounts you must follow!

I love Instagram, I've had so many accounts and have followed heaps of people. Recently I found myself actually typing in my favourtie accounts just to make sure I was all up to date on the things they post! Instagram is such a creative way to show the things you're good at! You can find my Instagram here.

My MAC Collection

This post is all about the MAC products that I own! I will tell you what I think about them, how much I use them and if they are worth the hype! MAC is such a lovely brand that people rave about all the time! I have 2 blushes and 2 lipsticks from MAC. There are a few more products I would love to try from MAC, like a concealer and a few different lipstick shades! Overall the products are really good and I enjoy using them!

My Bucket List!

This is some what of a strange post, especially on my blog! But I think bucket lists are so amazing! I thought I would share with you a few things that are on my bucket list!!

L'oreal True Match Foundation Review

I've heard so much about this foundation, I've heard the good stories and the bad! When Chemist Warehouse had a 50% off sale I had to pick this up and give it ago! I've been putting off buying it for the longest time because of the price! I really didn't know if it would be worth it!

Artiste brush cleaner review!

I've never bought a brush cleaner before, as I've always used baby shampoo to clean my brushes. So when I aw this artiste brush cleanser in Priceline I just had to pick it up! This is just a spot cleaner, meaning you spray this onto a tissue and wipe your brushes on the tissue to clean them!

TopShop Lipsticks!!

I really love Topshop lipsticks! They have a lovely range of shades and the texture is great! Here are the Topshop lipsticks I own and what I think about them! I think these lipsticks are great if you want to try something other than a drugstore lipstick but don't want to go all the way and buy a MAC or Chanel lipsticks! These are lovely and have very few faults!! <3

Orangey shade-Whimsical
Pink shade-Macaroon
Dark shade-Depth

Favorites | May 2016

These are a few of the things I have been loving this month! I haven't really tried heaps of new products that I have fallen in love with, though this month I did revisit a lot of old things and re fall in love with them!!

Klorane Dry Shampoo Review!

You saw these dry shampoos appear in my Chemist Warehouse haul! I really wanted to do a review because these could be my new favourite Dry Shampoos! A lovely reader commented suggesting I should try these on my last dry shampoo review so when i saw them on sale I just had to get my hands on them!
