Jocks and Loose Women
I was browsing the David Jones Beauty Book 2013 and what immediately caught my eye was the offer they had for theBalm. If you spend $27.95 on the brand, they'll throw in your choice of ShadyLady Vol. 2...

Diamonds and Dior
Dior Diorskin Poudre Shimmer in Amber Diamond (002). I could've snapped up this famed highlighter from StrawberryNET ages ago, but I rationalised I already had Jemma KiddDewy Glow All Over Radiance...

Oil and Water
A few items became skin care musts/lusts when I started to pay greater attention to Caroline Hirons: Indeed Labs Hydraluron, Alpha-H Liquid Gold, a hydrating toner (OmoroviczaQueen of Hungary Mist), a...

August Favourites
August was a bit of a strange month for me. The net result was a couple of weeks of relative inner turmoil which amounted to pretty much nothing in terms of changing my situation. My upcoming planned...

Peachy Boost
I first heard of the Bourjois Color Boost Glossy Finish Lipsticks from Sandra back in June and soon enough, they started popping up everywhere. I didn't know if I wanted to cave and buy my 327th lip...

Five Face Oils
I've been meaning to write this post for a long time, but have always slacked off on it because, simply put, these different face oils I use are practically indistinguishable to me. I use them in...

Pitch Perfect Pink
As a lip product junkie, when the Maybelline Color Sensational Color Whispers hit our shores, I was immediately intrigued. Attractively slimmer than the regular Color Sensational line, these lipsticks...

Up in the Air

Back to Reality
I'm home and invariably suffering from some kind of post-holiday depression (not to be confused with my regular neuroticism and negative affect). Europe went by mostly without incident, except for some...

Pencilling in Kiko
When I was in Milan, I made sure I popped into a KIKO store to discover more about a brand I've been hearing a lot about lately but haven't been exposed to before. I don't know much about KIKO except...

Stand Still, Look Pretty
I've never owned anything Chanel until recently, when I picked up the Les Beiges Healthy Glow Sheer Powder SPF 15 / PA++ in N°20. I was never going to fork out $80 for it in Australia, but it was...

Nourishing Nuxe
I've been loyal to my Maybelline Baby Lips in Relieving Menthol for the past couple of years, but if there's one lip balm that's tempted me to stray, it's NUXE Rêve de Miel. (The other two, BY TERRY...

Oh So Girly
Since purchasing Sleek i-Divine eyeshadow palettes in Storm and Bad Girl early last year, it's always been at the back of my mind to pick up some more. I was extremely tempted by Au Naturel (being a...

Pairing Rage with Envy
I've only tried three things from Max Factor in recent memory: their Masterpiece Max mascara (excellent, an old favourite), Burnt Bark eyeshadow and Fantasy Fire nail polish. For whatever reason, much...

White Florals, Powder & Musk
Recently, I've started to get back into perfume in a major way. I don't know what triggered it ... maybe I'm a bit over makeup and it's only natural that I return to my first love. In my I Love Perfume...

Confection Perfection
I've found my new favourite lipstick: MACPatisserie. I tried to limit myself to just two new MAC additions while on holiday in London, Patisserie and Plumful. While I'm a bit on the fence about...

Festive Flush
RimmelSanta Rose is a blush that I avoided buying for a very long time. After repeatedly seeing Tanya Burr call it her favourite drugstore blush in countless videos, I was pretty much set on buying it,...

October Favourites
October saw a resurgence in my interest in fragrance, both perfume and scented candles. Well, the scented candles were a new thing altogether, but I was obsessed. I'm pretty sure I smelled every single...

No Longer Evading Chanel
A Chanel lipstick is certainly up there in terms of makeup wants, but still something I can live without. One of these babies in Australia is $50, and at that price I'd rather buy a YSL Rouge Volupté...

Dimmed Expectations
The Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powders have been one of the most hyped beauty products to come out in recent memory. I was more or less uninterested when I first heard about them, dismissing them as...
