Glasshouse Pink Candle
I love the smell, the colour and the purpose of this candle. It is expensive but very much worth every scent! The scent reminds me of summer which is perfect to get me through the oncoming winter!



NARS Foundation Pump

This little guy was only $4 and a lifesaver. It's made my Sheer Matte foundation last that little bit longer with no product wastage. I like that even though he wasn't expensive my money last longer as I can re-use this on a new bottle of foundation when the time comes.


Redecorating my space
I've been feeling a bit uninspired by my space lately and I've decided to do something about it. I got acrylic candy jars to store my beauty blenders in which makes it colourful and practical. I've pulled my candle jars out and arrange them in tiering pattern on my bedside table.

On my wall I have hung three same sized picture frames with three different fun sayings/ quotes that just remind me of who I am. They are;

hello gorgeous
be bright. be happy. be you
leave a little sparkle wherever you go



makeup course


This is another thing I've been doing to better myself. Having a clear interest in it I thought it was about damn time I actually put it intuit action and get a certified certificate in it! So far I am loving it and all the little extra things I'm learning and the aspects that strengthen what I already know.

Innoxa Organic Brightening Eye Creme

-
Packaging: Opaque white plastic squeeze tube with a twist off cap. The nib is fine and 2mm wide. The packaging has elements of green and brown to tie in with the organic line. It's defiantly durable and travel friendly. The cap has caused me some fussing when it hasn't twisted on evenly the first go. I like being able to cut the tube open to get every ounce of product out. Smell/Taste: None. Colour: White, blends out clear. Formula/ Texture: This is a thin and smooth lotion. It's easily applied and absorbed into the eye area without any greasy film or tackiness. The formula contains aloe vera, avocado, macadamia and rosehip oil meaning it's going to soothe, nourish and soften the eye area.  It defiantly hasn't caused any skin irritations or redness.  No sulphates, parabens, mineral oils, silicones, petrochemicals, synthetic fragrances or TEA's. The rosehip, olive, coconut and macadamia oils help reduce the appearance of fine li...

Benefit Benetint

Packaging: Small clear tube with white screw lid with brush tip applicator. Smell: None. Colour: Ruby red colour. Light coverage/ sheer pigmentation with a natural finish. On the cheeks it is a lot more sheered out and is more pink looking. Texture/ Formula: This is a quite runny and thin. It absorbs and sinks into the skin quite quickly. So it must be applied onto one cheek at a time, blending it immediately. This is my first tint so I had a hard time adjusting to the application method as I ended up with blotches of tint that no powder could fix. A small amount goes a long way. I do use my fingers to apply this and the blending is easier then a brush. This does leave a slight stain on my fingertips. It does have an amazing longevity of 12hrs+, which is what a tint is known for. This can be increased more topped with a powd...

Benefit They're Real! Mascara

I got this sample size from The Champions of Bronze kit. Packaging: Shiny gunmetal wand handle with a gunmetal tube. The wand as long plastic bristles with a spiked ball at the end of it. This ball utilises the end of the mascara wand and reaches into the smaller lashes in the inner corner of the eye. Smell: Just the usual mascara smell. Colour: Black. Opaque pigmentation. Formula/ Texture: This is more of a wet mascara but with a really thin scraper that doesn't leave any clumps of mascara on the wand. It's a thinner wand which made applying it easy. I wasn't going through my lashes trying to separate my lashes and then add volume then back to separating a clump. Theres no flaking or transferring. It's is easily removed with makeup wipes. I have average length lashes that have a very slight natural curl to them, so I want a mascara that does it all- volume, length and curl. I always curl my lashes before mascara applicati...
