Brunette Beauty

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. Th...

Evian Mineral Spray has worked wonders is refreshing my face where it's been humid and still effective unlike when it's super hot. It's actually a great benefit more then I thought. This is the month that I decided to book a trip to go to Europe later this year. I did do it later in the month but I'm very excited about all things Europe. Top things to do/ see/ taste/ experience. Weather expectations. What to pack/ take. I'm taking it all  in! Pastels have been another favourite this month but more specifically in clothes. From sheer aqua tops to a combination of light pink and lavender shades with very slight hints of yellow. I am in love!! It's such a softer take during summer especially as it contradicts the harsh heat. I haven't been able to find anything to wear on my bottom half yet. I can't wait to start pairing them with cream cardigans and thick cable sweaters and light jackets that drape off the body for the coming colder weather!! ...

This months favourites have to do with summer and the lovely and amazing weather that's associated with this. First of all I've been spending more time in the sun which means getting a tan. Sometimes I underestimate how strong the UVs are and end up little bit burnt and also vera gel has come in handy! It's cooling and soothes the redness but also helps to heal the burnt skin quicker by adding back the lost moisture. I've also love applying it just to cool down the skin when it's  really hot. With extreme heat comes extreme sweating. That is never pretty. I recently picked up the Dove clinical protection anti perspirant deodorant stick. I don't classify myself as a heavy sweater but I was curious to see how well it would work. My body did feel cooler on the days when I used this and yes there as no sweating! It was comforting to know that my underarms weren't going to be pools of sweat. I've also been loving the L'Oreal Casting Sunki...

GHD I've been back at uni this month and I've been straightening my hair more and thus using my GHD more. I got it in December of 2009 and can't believe why I didn't get one sooner. 

Gingerly blush I never used to like this but now with summer and a bit of a tan I've been resorting to this rather than benefits coralista blush. I slight contour with this colour then add some pink swoon blush also by M.A.C onto the apples and sweep  whatevers left up the cheekbone. Christina Aguilera Perfume I got this for christmas and have been wearing it everyday in february. Love how this is lightweight and is a nice change from my other perfumes. Atlantic Blue eyeshadow This is a very matte formula and is a lil chalky, I think all over blue would look silly on me so I use this as an eyeliner and it's amazing! It makes my eyes pop and is hardly noticable against black lashes. Otherwise I wouldn't use it.

Guess Wallet I got this for myself around christmas time. I kinda of convinced myself that I needed a new wallet and I fell in love with this zip around one. I love the new Guess smell and the discrete placement of the diamontes too ;-) Wearing my hair in a bun It has been way too hot in January to be even be thinking about making my hair look nice and put together and style it out cause the heat doesn't cooperate. Instead all I've been doing is putting my hair in a bun, up and off my neck and shoulders so that my skin  is free to be cool and sweet-free. Juxt & Humid eyeshadow I've been loving these two eyeshadows in January. Juxt kinda looks like a yellow but goes on a green-ish yellow all over the lid, then place humid in the crease and blend in along the lash line at it looks so pretty. Wearing little makeup  Like with wearing my hair in a bun, it's been too hot and energy draining to wear a full face of makeup. Not only does the heat melt i...

Thought I'd share some of my favourite things from 2010. GUESS 'Candy' Watch Arhhh I absolutley love this watch. I got it in both black and white thats how much I love em. These designs are from America and I got them off ebay, cause like all good things they don't come to Australia. We have a watch design that is similar but not  this . They are like a causal everyday watch, with a hint of glamour and thats what I like about them, they can dress up an outfit without making it look to flashy yet I can wear one everyday to whichever mood Im in. Garh I love to stare at them especially the white one as you can really see the mother of pearl back display. They come in a white cardboard slip on cover. This slips over the actual box that they are stored in. The watch box is a big (11x11x6cm) black square. The actual covering is plastic embossed to look like snakeskin with a silver 'Guess' imprint. When you open it up, not only is the warranty there but ...
